Any object-oriented language should be fine though to learn all the basic concepts you need. Python can be a great first language, because there are a lot of things you don't have to care about and can just focus on building the logic to solve the problem that you want to solve.
#UNREAL LEARN FXPHD HOW TO#
I can also recommend this talk when starting out with programming " How to think like a programmer" - it tries to teach the right higher level mindset that is useful for programming. And you will have some limitations that you don't have with C++, because not all methods are exposed as blueprint nodes. What visual scripting is is just programming but it is represented differently. Flow control with if/switch statements, what data types there are, function parameters and output, access modifiers, classes, structs. If you decide to only dive into blueprints and it's enough, you should still be aware of programming basics. Directly starting with c++ (although far from the easiest language to learn as a beginner), might not be a bad idea - you will learn some lower level concepts and directly learn the language you need for Unreal. It isn't strictly necessary that you start with c++ since most concepts you learn in one language will translate to the other. You can (and probably should) learn programming on its own without being intertwined in Unreal or other frameworks. The visual node tools for making your own materials/shaders are nice too and they have more nodes than Unity afaik.
You can do a lot of things visually, their visual scripting solution is quite mature compared to some other engines have. Unity is less demanding, and engines like godot far less.ĭesign wise, I think it might make sense for you to choose Unreal. Unreal is the most performance demanding engine among the popular ones that I know. What's the best way to learn all these languages, and Unreal? I'm thinking books, videos, online classes, and maybe finding a mentor/peer group eventually.

Platforms I'm targeting would likely be on iOS/Android, but could also include PC (Definitely for apps/games), and also MacOS (for apps at least, but hopefully games too).
#UNREAL LEARN FXPHD CODE#
I also want to learn to code a bit (for games, but also some app ideas I have). (A "Good PC" will happen when required, but hoping I can get started with that).Ģ.

Is Unreal the right choice for me? For hardware, I only have a MacBook Pro (Fully loaded M1 Max), My 2014 MBP (Which could run Windows via bootcamp), and 2 in 1 with a modern i5 CPU with integrated XE GPU. Plus, it could be great for my other needs such as PreViz (basic to advanced), and maybe dabbling in some 3D printing.ġ. So I've been looking into Unreal Engine, as I'm hoping it's both the right choice for Games, and that parts of it carry over to VFX, like this. :) I'm a filmmaker, but I'd like some game design too (just another skill I'd like to have, and potentially a side hustle, but probably not a career change).
