In InspectMe Pro, we have introduced a powerful new feature that allows you to inspect static members and classes directly within the Unity Editor. This feature enhances the capabilities of InspectMe by including static members in the tree view alongside non-static members, and by providing a dedicated namespace explorer for static classes. InspectMe Lite (Free): https://lnkd.in/dyTs7uEy InspectMe Pro: https://lnkd.in/dKvdvHua Documentation: https://divinitycodes.de #InspectMe #Unity #Plugin #GameDev #Static #Class

Imagine if you could rearrange your Steam, your way, without all the static💡 The concept Steam Locomotion would allow you to move, swap, and click various Steam elements found across Store, Library, Community, and your Profile all in one place - or anywhere you'd want. Want your game list on the right side? Now you can, want to view certain elements from the Store directly on your Home page, why not? What if you could share Locomotion layouts like players can share Controller layouts. Would this kind of feature have many use cases, probably not - but its for those customers that want to enhance their time using Steam, by shaping it to fit their motions and to view their key interest points on the platform without all the static. Would this be an engineer's worst nightmare - absolutely. #Valve #Steam #concept #gamesindustry

Dave the Diver is getting a Godzilla DLC, and it is free!! This new DLC will see Dave come face-to-face with the might Godzilla himself, though in keeping with the true spirit of Godzilla you won’t be fighting the big lizard so much as helping it overcome one of its adversaries, Ebirah, Horror of the Deep, from the 1966 live-action movie of the same name. Players will need to pilot the G-Force submarine to take Ebirah on, and work alongside Godzilla to protect the planet from the mighty crustacean’s threat. You can claim this DLC right now from the below digital console and PC storefronts, and you’ll need to do so before November 23rd, 2024, because it’s only available until then. After that point it will seemingly either become a paid DLC or completely unavailable, so make sure you scoop it up: 💾 PlayStation Store: https://lnkd.in/eHPjPi4C 💾 Steam: https://lnkd.in/eFGy6_Y5 💾 Nintendo Switch eShop: https://lnkd.in/ehr7r3zH

Animating with Cascadeur: Physics-based animation software is pretty wild. That’s 8 keyframes there. The one on the right is my first rough animation “Keyframe prompt” and the green dude on the left is the interpretation.

Hopefully this is the first time you're seeing modular control rig working inside #uefn. I saw the hidden menu for making modular control rigs during #unrealfest and tried migrating all the modules over. Not without its kinks, we now have working modular control rigs and modules on the otherside. If people are interested in this process, I'll consider making a longer form tutorial. In the meantime, what should we rig up with the modules in UEFN?
