update. Put together what might be a powerful HP system, but did not go through and purchase. I’m erring on the side of caution and just going to deal with incredibly slow render times for now while i try to make sure my game runs smoothly on my slow Mac Pro (which btw, meets the minimum requirements of Epic and more).
I’m still reducing textures, improving the run time by fixing problems with shadows which again, slows things badly if there is anything amiss or outdated.
