Hi jacenty,

Please post this to answerhub in the packaging and deployment section so we can assist you more in depth. If you feel this may be a bug, please post it to the bug reports section (link in signature).

Thanks much.

UE-16307 Sphere Mask using Absolute World Position not rendering in ES2 (Android or iOS)

I think this is still not fixed in the 4.9 release...I have packaged for my ios,the material using these still does not show...
And once I enable DOF for my iphone 6 plus, the game still crashes immediately..............

Hi hls333555,

This is still under assessment by the development staff, it is marked as major but I don't have a timeframe of when a fix will be implemented.

How do I go about changing the max number of processors to use for Building now? UBT is throwing me this error:

1>EXEC : error : XmlConfigLoader: Reading config XML failed:

Mo-mo-mo-monster-post-post-post. Awesome work guys, thanks!

Btw, I found a Typo - can I keep it?
In Blueprints, you can now spawn baser object types (not just actors/components).
(at least it sounds strange to me)

[Keytotruth]

That was amazing. :O

I had ta similar when I upgraded to 4.9, Chris Babcock started helping me with it but i never found out why it was a problem, or where the Path Variables are. See here, apparently it's a temporary fix of some kind:

If that doesn't help you, it looks like a cooking issue. Check your content for Compiler errors.

So, my scroll wheel is broken now...

[LZHDevelops]

To everyone involved: thanks for all the improvements. There are plenty of shy, quiet folks like me out there that are incredibly grateful for the continued hard work. Popping in to say thank you, and to ask a quick question.

Re: the actor tick interval update:

I might be missing it, but is there a way to set the interval through Blueprints? Maybe it has a unobvious name, but I couldn't find anything under "interval" (with context sensitive turned off).

Thanks in advance, and congrats on the release.

+1. Fantastic new features that I am waiting to try out, though I still would like a few more improvements on the math expression node Quick question, do you guys notify us on our Answer-hub bug reports when a bug we reported is fixed?

Koola> Checked in 4.9 and my AA doesn't display the same problem as yours, btw.
I like that the new TemporalAA is sharper that the old version, but I LIKED that softer version as well. Is there a switch that can toggle the two methods?

I have tried with a new scene with starter content, It's very subtle but it's here.
On some of my scene it's really noticeable (and ugly)

This is too bad, there is some really cool features in this version.

In a new scene :

[Reko]

Please offer the AA filter as option/al. Or even better, offer the sample amounts to the filter to blur/sharpen the image. Would be silly to run another PostProcess like gaussian blur to get the softness back :P

[MADHOUSE]

Great and impressive work as always! Im mostly pshyced about the network improvements! However I find this slightly confusing:

"
New: Added a file NetConstants.h which holds MAX_PACKET_SIZE which can be changed to update the MTU. Changed the MTU from 512 to 1000.

Changed MTU back to 512 from 1000 as discussions of MTU changes are still happening.

"
So was MTU changed, and then changed back? Also why should it not be increased?
Cheers!
