Unreal Engine: Creating Widgets for UI
In this course, you will learn how to use the Unreal Widget Blueprint system to create UI (User Interface) for your games and applications. These are the same user interfaces that you see in popular games such as Fortnite, Madden NFL, Grand Theft Auto, and Final Fantasy! These menus also mimic the menus that I use to create visualization applications at a Fortune 500 company, and are proven techniques! It is vitally important for any Unreal developer to understand the concepts of widget blueprints. By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and expertise to be able to create menus, on screen HUD’s, and many other kinds of menus that you can use in your own games and applications! You will also have developed a fully functional Survival Game!
This course is a great starting point for users who are unfamiliar with the Unreal Widget Blueprint system. It is targeted at Unreal Engine users who have a basic understanding of Unreal 5. We will not be going over how to download and install the Engine or general navigation of the Editor. However, you will master how to design, program and debug widgets within the Widget Blueprint Editor! NO PROGRAMMING KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED!
Unreal Engine: Advanced Widgets for UI
You already know how to create UI, now learn how to master it!
In this course, you will learn advanced techniques to use the Unreal Widget Blueprint system to create UI (User Interface) for your games and applications. These are the same user interfaces that you see in popular games such as Skyrim, Madden NFL, Hogwarts Legacy, and Final Fantasy! These menus also mimic the menus that I use to create visualization applications at a Fortune 500 company, and are proven techniques! It is vitally important for any Unreal developer to understand how to create more advanced menu systems using the widget blueprint system. By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and expertise to be able to create complex, data driven menus, utilize advanced rendering techniques, and create virtually any kind of menu within your own games and applications! You will also have developed an advanced dynamic inventory system inspired by The Elder Scrolls Skyrim!
This course is a an advanced course for those who already know the basics of the Unreal Widget Blueprint system. It is targeted at Unreal Engine users who have at least a basic understanding of widgets, though you will be able to follow along no matter what level you are currently. We will not be going over how to download and install the Engine or general navigation of the Editor, nor will we be going over how to create or display a widget. However, you will master how to design and program advanced widgets within the Widget Blueprint Editor! NO PROGRAMMING KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED!
Unreal Engine: Creating a ChatGPT / Dall-E Plugin
The future is here.
Natural Language Processing and Generative AI have taken the world by storm, enabling automation, code generation, and image generation with a simple text prompt. ChatGPT has allowed users to generate an unlimited amount of content, from code generation, to creative writing, to email and web site templates, and so much more! Dall-E has allowed everyone, no matter their artistic skill, to generate art and design as if they were a professional artist!
In this course, you will learn how to create a custom Unreal Editor plugin which adds ChatGPT and Dall-E functionality to the Unreal Engine! At the end of this course, you will have created an Unreal Engine plugin, ported ChatGPT and Dall-E into the editor using Python, and created a full editor utility widget menu to generate ChatGPT responses and Dall-E imagery directly in the Editor! The imagery you generate in Dall-E will also be imported and saved right in the Content Browser!
This is an intermediate course for those who already know the basics of Unreal Engine. We will not be going over how to download and install the Engine or general navigation of the Editor. We will also not be discussing the principles of programming. However, you will be able to follow along in every step of the creation of a fully functional ChatGPT and Dall-E plugin in Unreal Engine!
