Unreal Engine 4.9 Released!

[Jimmy_Jazz]

Epic are being very quiet at the moment regarding updates.

I haven't moved to 4.9 yet as there were initially a reported issue when moving from the TADP to its replacement. Is it worth moving to 4.9 or holding out for a 4.10 preview within the next couple of weeks?

Thanks a lot! Looking forward to it in 4.9.2!

Then we are able to use the same material setup we used back in 4.8 without any errors. Thank you!

Hi reok,

This has already been fixed internally. I do not have an exact timeframe of when the fix will be implemented but it should make it into a future release.

When does this get fixed?

this keeps popping up in 4.9.1
didn't think nothing of it when created a standard template First Person Shooter but got it again after re-opening the project. (no changes were made & didn't even save it) but project works n plays normal tho'

Error /Game/FirstPersonBP/Maps/FirstPersonExampleMap : Failed import for SkeletalMeshComponent /Game/FirstPersonBP/Blueprints/FirstPersonCharacter.FirstPersonCharacter_C:SkeletalMesh_GEN_VARIABLE

I'm trying to update 4.9 to 4.9.1, but it's saying it wants 15gb for the update?
Is this an update or a complete version install?

Hi all,
it seems that 4.9.1 doesn´t allow loading of animated FBX files?

Didn't tried 4.9.1 yet, but let me thank you by 4.9.

- UMG looks a lot more responsive.
- A "LOT" from my Log warnings gone away, I just still with a boring one when using CreateDynamicMaterialInstance( ) with some skeletalmeshes dunno if is caused by the parentmesh from the component having more materials because Cloth or 2Sided Mats. But nothing serious.
- Did you changed the dynamic shadows? Could be just me, but they looks a lot more defined!
Among others...

Thank you!

Can someone clarify what "Rev Oculus SDK to 0.7 / 0.6.18" means?

Particularly the Rev. I have yet to update my Oculus runtime to 0.7 (still working on 0.6), because i've heard UE4.9 wasn't yet fully compatible. Am I wrong? Would it be wise to update to 4.9.1 and runtime 0.7? Any performance gains?

With 4.9.1, we have updated the Oculus runtimes to 0.7.0 (Desktop) and 0.6.1 (Mobile)
