Introduction to Unreal Engine 4

Introduction to Unreal Engine 4 

This blog series is a supplemental work for My Unreal Engine 4 Tutorial Series on YouTube.

Unreal Engine 4 is a powerful tool for building games.  In this series, we will be building an open-source game from start to finish.  In the introduction video I show the various tools I will be using while developing the game, some are online tools and websites others are applications that are free and available to download and install.  Below is a complete list of these applications and links to the sites for download.

• Unreal Engine 4 https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/?sessionInvalidated=true
• Blender https://www.blender.org/download/
• Gimp https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
• CrazyBump http://www.crazybump.com/
• Pexels https://www.pexels.com/
• GitHub Repo: https://github.com/wwestlake/Unreal-YouTube-Course
• Mixamo: https://www.mixamo.com/#/
• Sound Bible http://soundbible.com/
• Texture Haven: https://texturehaven.com/textures/
• Textures.com: https://www.textures.com/

All of these tools are free except for CraztBump which is not very expensive, and it is very useful.  CrazyBump is not required for the course as all materials are available on GitHub.

The GitHub site has the complete project at all times.  I sync with GitHub after each week's recording sare completed.  You can access the GitHub repository here:
