Unreal Engine 4.9 Released!

[arbopa]

This is nice and all, loads of fixes.... but question: When you update these, do you update the documentation? Because I am currently in 4.8.3 and learning stuff, and most of the documentation and tutorials are already quite old... I don't know if I want to even move to 4.9 because I can't possibly take in all the changes and know where I can do things better in my current projects. Am I the only one overwhelmed everytime there is a big update?

I usually transition like nothing even happened, but I wasn't one to pay much attention to the documentation anyways.

Any idea when we might get an updated Substance Plugin to go with the 4.9 engine? My project now says it's got to have it installed even though my project doesn't use it. I suspect that since I had the plugin installed under the 4.8 engine that all my 4.8 engine projects will ask for it even though they don't use it.

Kudos once again to the Epic team, your releases are consistently impressive in their breadth and their ability to mystically anticipate what my current most significant need is within the engine.

So, my scroll wheel is broken now...

I haven't encountered a problem using the scroll wheel in 4.9. Can you please log a Bug Report on the AnswerHub with additional information and repro steps?

Thanks

New: Game/URL Options parsing nodes are now exposed to blueprints.

for some reason i think this is going to be very important to me , no idea how to do it but it might just be the key for the lock

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure he was joking about having to scroll through all the notes.
