I found this pretty interesting approach to archive a realistic vehicle ai in the unreal engine.

This is part of a series of posts on source control for game development. Read more in the Blog.
So far we’ve been studying in-depth 4 of the most popular source control options for game development.
Why do I see those as being the most popular?

Hi folks,
here is a short instruction to install and run a dedicated Valheim server on linux:
Create a user account named steam to run SteamCMD safely, isolating it from the rest of the operating system. Do not run steamcmd while operating as the root user – to do so is a security risk.
useradd -m steamcd /home/steam
It’s recommended to install the SteamCMD package from your distribution repositories, if available
sudo apt install steamcmd
Run steamcmd in console
steamcmdLogin anonymous or with your account
login anonymous
or
login <username>Set your app install directory
force_install_dir <path>Update and validate Valheim
app_update 896660 validatequit steamcmd
quitNote: currently its heavy cpu loaded to host a dedicated server!
further information on installing dedicated servers:
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD
Known issues:
failed to init SDL thread priority manager: SDL not found
Solution:
sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0-0:i386Open the path where you installed the dedicated server
you will find a couple of files including a manual.pdf
sudo nano or sudo vim start_server.shNow you will see this and you can set your server name and password:
export templdpath=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./linux64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export SteamAppId=892970
Tip: Make a local copy of this script to avoid it being overwritten by steam.
NOTE: Minimum password length is 5 characters & Password cant be in the server name.
NOTE: You need to make sure the ports 2456-2458 is being forwarded to your server through your local router & firewall.
./valheim_server.x86_64 -name "My Server Name" -port 2456 -world "Dedicated" -password "My Password" -public 1 > /dev/null &
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$templdpath
echo "Server started"
echo ""
read -p "Press RETURN to stop server"
echo 1 > server_exit.drp
echo "Server exit signal set"
echo "You can now close this terminal"
To run the server:
./start_server.sh
Unreal Engine is one of the most popular game engines. And the newest version — Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) — is expected to be a game changer. In this blog, we break down why — and what we’re excited about.
Unreal Engine 5 is the forthcoming version of Unreal Engine, expected in 2021.
There is a lot of excitement around Unreal Engine 5. In our recent survey of 500+ game development professionals, we heard may predictions for the impact of UE5 on game development in the 2020s.

Interactive control of self-balancing, physically simulated humanoids is along standing problem in the ield of real-time character animation. Whilephysical simulation guarantees realistic interactions in the virtual world,simulated characters can appear unnatural if they perform unusual move-ments in order to maintain balance..

The Sega Saturn is notorious for not being able to pull off transparency effects as well as its competitors. But the Saturn does do proper transparency effects as many games demonstrate. So why did so many developers so often settle on the “mesh” approach in their Saturn games?
This article is based on a YouTube video made by Low Score Boy. See the thank you section at the bottom of this post.
Abstract
This work presents an approach to automatically create 3D thermal models using multi-perspective
measurements with a multimodal camera system consisting of a thermal camera and a depth camera. Additional
attributes such as color can also be added to the model. The paper centers its attention on the geometrical calibration of
the cameras and the validation of the results. The design of an adequate calibration target is discussed and different
options are evaluated. To expose the applicability of the approach two inspection tasks are used as examples…[read further]
