is 4.23 finally having some good AA options?
blueprint enumeration - cannot be edited (from what I have noticed)
Regarding RTGI of 4.23, you need to turn RTAO on and adjust the intensity to 0 in order to see a roughly normal RTGI, but it still has problems, and you will see some content start to flicker.
In addition, the translucency of RT in 4.23 is completely damaged and cannot be turned on; SSGI cannot be combined with RT effect; LPV can not be combined with RT Shadow effect from 4.22 to 4.23.
What happend to the input mapping in 4.23 ?
I see Speech mappings but the axis mapping is gone ? Am i stupid or what 
I’m also seeing this on 4.23.0 Preview 2. Clicking “New” in a blueprint enum doesn’t create a new editable entry in the enumerator. New entries appear to be added (you can set them as default values in variables, use them in switches, etc.), but you can’t rename or delete them.
Daydream quit bug still exists:
meaning Unreal un-usable for Daydream platform since 4.20
Are there any plans to update this or can we simply no longer update our daydream apps ever (need 4.20+ to work with the fix for target sdk 26+)
Additional 4.23 P2 observations:
- GearVR apps crash on startup (for Shipping builds - development works)
- Go & GearVR apps render black (multi-view + multi-view direct)
- 3D widgets are not visible on Daydream
Anyone else noticing those?
You can’t add return types to Blueprint functions anymore. Trying to create a BP function with a return type and input type is impossible.
Development team-
I want to stress this Ray Tracing Global Illumination thing is a BIG deal for those of us perusing use of raytracing and involved in testing the raytracing development.
If these Previews are only meant really to test the new destructive demolition physics, with raytracing as an after thought, give us the heads up then so users don’t waste time trying to troubleshoot.
Otherwise - Holy Cow - new line of code is wrecking raytracing!!!..LOL
We want what was working in 4.22.3, and want to see it here!
PS - Good finds Nocturness and Leo Rakes
THX Development Team!
Hi.
-I was wondering if the new SSGI works with older video cards on windows 7 or you need an RTX 2080 TI Card on the latest windows 10?
-Also, can the SSGI feature produce soft shadows from direct and indirect lighting for moving objects or is just for global light and color bouncing?..
Thanks
The preview builds are expected to have issues from all the sub-streams or branches of development teams coming together for a release. There is always some stabilization and fallout from the copy-up merging of all these branches together that has to be resolved and tested. These builds are part of our QA process to stabilize and catch issues before release. Having the community use them earlier in our process by having a lot of previews helps call out issues or edge cases we may have missed otherwise and it lets anyone who wants to try things out earlier get that first look.
With each release, we post the preliminary highlighted features for that release so that everyone is aware of what’s coming and they can start to try them out. For instance, Chaos is a big feature for this release, but it’s not the only thing we’re looking for feedback or bug reports on. Ray Tracing was released as “Beta” in 4.22 with the acknowledgement that there is still a lot of work to do. This release sees a number of improvements not only in stability but in some feature support for different geometry types and material types. RTGI is still very expensive and our devs are continually working to improve its performance but that too will take time.
All that being said, if you find issues, please report them! Even if you’re not sure they are a bug or lack of implemented feature or it’s a difference from previous release in how it works/looks that we’ve not intentionally called out, please report it. Our teams will investigate and be sure so that we can get fixed if it is a bug and if it’s not we’ll try to provide context where possible.
@Daffrendo thanks for taking the time to try out the preview builds and report any issues you find. It really is appreciated and helps make a better release when it gets here!
Anyone able to find where the **New Pro Video Codecs ** are hiding? It’s really irritating that the AVI, Motion JPEG is interlaced.

Hello
In 4.23 P2, I can’t find Geometry Collection in Physics menu.
[/QUOTE]
I second this bug. Can’t find “Geometry Collection” in Physics menu. Makes Chaos difficult. What about it ?
So, will be fixed next release - yes?
Can you put your finger on the scale for us, we would like to see the basic Raytracing pieces not break-down as features are rolled out.
THX !
Can you verify that the plugin is enabled? There seems to be an issue when using Github Desktop to clone the repository - it doesn’t pull all of the plugins related to Chaos. If this is the case, download the .zip instead of cloning. We’re working on figuring out why this is the case!
I did get P2 compiled. The plugin is enabled. When I ran the editor it about 15 minutes to load. 5 hours to compile. Still no geometry container.
Hey Unreal – can you guys give some love to Sequencer?
1- Attach doesn’t seem to behave properly. Transform changes drastically and none of the settings seem to help.
2- Scrubbing doesn’t always reset the position of animations properly.
3- Alembic Geo Cache in Sequence is broken
Thanks.
I’m relocating countries at the moment and I can’t investigate further, however it seems VT are boned. You can convert existing textures, and change the samplers in the materials accordingly, however theres either a memory leak or something isn’t being flushed because memory usage skyrockets during conversion. While working on a large project with satellite data I had to be careful about how many I was converting in any given Editor session otherwise my system (with 128gb RAM) would just hang (I left it overnight to check, it doesn’t get better). Additionally, when loading a level using them the same issue occurs with memory usage, although generally it will just crash.
As a test case i’d recommend converting the Kite Demo to use VT, or simply duplicate an 8k texture 1000 or so times and try converting them.
UPDATE!
We have just released Preview 3 for 4.23! Thank you for your continued help in testing the 4.23 build before its official release. As a reminder, the Preview builds are for testing only, and should not be used for the active development of your project.

Hi @Amanda.Bott - could you please pass on the info that in Sequencer the Attach / Detach function has been broken since at least 2017? This feels like it should be a very basic function and I have no idea what it hasn’t gotten any more attention.
Also if someone here can explain to me why the Event Track in Sequencer has become a huge convoluted mess to use, if there is any advantage to the recent change I’d love to know. Thanks!
