## 新货出炉 ##

虚幻引擎 4.13 已经来了！在这个版本中可以看到方方面面的各种改进。

这次添加了很多新的 渲染特性，比如模型贴花，由蓝图绘制 Render Target，GPU 顶点变化，改进的折射效果，以及面向材质使用的高质量并已油画的噪点函数。阴影缓存贴图先能够支持同场景下比以往更多的动态灯光投射阴影。

Sequencer，新的非线性影响编辑器，这次也为高端影视制作带来了一些新的特性。在游戏中 实况录像 的功能得到了大幅改进。另外现在也可以对 SLOT 和 Animation 在外部程序中来回迁移。可以在我们的 [2016 SINGGRAPH Real-Time Live!][2016 SINGGRAPH Real-Time Live] 的演示中看到这些功能。

支持了 Alembic 使引擎能够导入复杂且有趣的顶点动画。新的 物理动画组件 能够让角色对物理的力作出更加真实的反应，由力通过马达驱动角色骨骼动画来实现。

对于 移动应用的开发者，这次优化了动态阴影，支持 full-precision 材质，并且支持自定义后处理过程。OpenGL ES 3.1 也能用于安卓设备，二进制的 Shader Caching 也将为迭代次数带来改善。

VR 游戏 现在可以使用胶囊体阴影技术，即时立体渲染也得到了优化。另外记得去看一下新的 VR 项目模板！对于如何使用手柄交互，如何在游戏中移动，它都提供了一个很好的示例。

现在虚拟现实的环境下搭建游戏关卡吗？虚幻的 VR Editor 也有了进一步进展，现在支持对模型或植被的绘制，有了一个新的移动控制句柄，还有 VR 色彩选取。最后，现在还可以直接在 VR 中进行游戏！在编辑器首选项设置中的实验室板块，可以找到 “Enable VR Editing” 并启用它。

## 主要功能 ##

#### 新货：SEQUENCER 实况录像 ####

Sequencer 中更新了一个新功能，实况录像，并在 [Siggraph Real-Time Live! 2016][Siggraph Real-Time Live_ 2016] 上做了展示。

![image alt text][]

Sequence 的 Recorder 能够捕获实时的游戏内容，包括所有的动画，声音和特效，捕获到一个独立的资源中，并可以使用 Sequencer 对它进一步进行编辑！这次的版本中的新功能包括：

*  选中物体的快速录像，摄像机选中时自动创建摄像机轨道。
 *  能够定义 Arbitrary 组件和属性来记录。
 *  能够选择是否要记录 Actor 在场景中附属的其他数据。
 *  当一个 Actor 被附属但为标记录像时，以世界空间坐标系来记录位置信息。

#### 新货：动态光的阴影贴图缓存。 ####

当一个点光源或者聚光灯不移动的时候，我们能将该光源产生的阴影保存下来，并在下一帧中重用。现在这个功能被自动实现，对于周遭环境变化不大的时候，动态点光源和的聚光源的投影的性能在游戏中变得可以接受。

![image alt text][image alt text 1]

上图中展示了 33 个能够产生投影的动态点光源，并且消耗非常的小：

使用 970 GTX 在 1920x1200 下的性能：

*  33 个产生投影的点光源不使用缓存时：渲染 Shadow Depths 花费 14.89ms。
 *  使用缓存阴影贴图：.9ms （大约快了 16 倍！）
 *  请注意这将花费 2ms 来渲染 33 个点光源的效果，这点可以通过其他方法优化，并且并不被这个功能有额外影响。
 *  这个缓存的内存使用可以由 ‘Stat ShadowRendering’ 查看，此场景是 25.6Mb。
 *  这个缓存的最大内存占用可以通过 ‘r.Shadow.WholeSceneShadowCacheMb’ 来控制。

限制

*  默认情况下，缓存只会在以下情况发生：
    
     *  物件的移动性设置为 静态 或者 固定
     *  材质并未使用世界位置偏移
     *  光源为点光源或者聚光源，移动性被设置为 Movable，并且当前并未移动。
 *  使用动画细分或者像素深度偏移的材质可能会在他们的阴影深度被缓存时导致一些可见的错误。

#### 新货：VORONOI 噪点材质 ####

这次我们为 Noise 材质节点添加了一个新的 Voronoi 的选项。Voronoi noise 有时也被称做 Worley 或者 Cellular noise，对 precedural material 的制作十分有帮助。

![image alt text][image alt text 2]

Voronoi noise 可以用来生成一些熟悉的物理材质模式，比如大理石，请看下图中的雕塑。

![image alt text][image alt text 3]

这个例子使用了 Voronoi noise 以及一项叫做 ‘gradient mapping’ 的技术来得到大理石的外观效果。

![image alt text][image alt text 4]

从左至右：

1）标准的 Voronoi Noise，1 octave

2）输入的位置附加 "Gradient" 的 Voronoi noise，设置为 0.05

3）在输入前将 Gradient noise 乘了 0.3

4) 使用第 3 步的结果作为一个随机平铺贴图的座标。

Voronoi noise 有 4 个质量等级，越高等级下网格越小，但 Shading 的时间开销会巨大的增加。

同时，其他的 Noise 材质节点也做了优化，在函数的选择上对性能的取舍也做了更多细节描述。这里的大部分在运行时都比较慢，因此应该鼓励将结果先预烘培到贴图上来提高性能。

#### 新货：面向 RENDER TARGET 的蓝图绘制 ####

蓝图函数现在能够直接用于面向 render target 绘制材质。该功能使得在不修改源代码的情况下实现各种不同类型的游戏特定渲染特性成为可能。

![image alt text][image alt text 5]

这里实现了流体表面的模拟，仅使用蓝图和材质。角色和投射物便能够推动流体变动！

![image alt text][image alt text 6]

上图展示了一个简单的高度绘制模式，完全由蓝图实现，模拟投射处增高高度值。

这个新的蓝图函数 Draw Material to Render Target 绘制一个四边形的目标 render target，使用 Emissive Color 作为材质的输入。

![image alt text][image alt text 7]

在开始游戏时，会先调用 Begin Play，该 render target 会填充为蓝色。可以此时右键点击该 render target，并存为一个静态贴图，以便能够被压缩。

![image alt text][image alt text 8]

对于更高阶的 render target 绘制，使用 Begin Draw Canvas to Render Target 和 End Draw Canvas to Render Target。这能够有效的多次绘制到一个 render target 的子集上，还有通过 Canvas 物体的字图绘制的方法。

![image alt text][image alt text 9]

利用蓝图绘制屏幕以外的渲染特性，使得快速实现各类渲染效果而不需要程序员的帮助成为可能。这里可能会很轻易的给 GPU 放上大量的 render target 所需的像素 Shader 计算工作。可以通过输入 'ProfileGPU' 来查看这些 draw call 信息（在 WorldTick 事件下）。

限制

*  无法对一个已经被样例化成贴图在材质中使用的 render target 进行绘制。也不能使用 alpha blending 来修改一个 render target，或者在两个 render target 之间来回更新。
 *  材质只有 Emissive Color 和 Opacity 的输出对绘制到一个 render target 才有效，光照目前并不支持，类似 WorldPosition 的节点则可能会产生预期之外的效果。
 *  默认情况下 Emissive Color 会被限制在正数，但可以通过启用材质属性的 ‘AllowNegativeEmissiveColor’ 来实现输出负数。

在 ContentExamples 中查看 BlueprintRenderToTarget 地图以了解可以运行的示例！

#### 新货：对顶点动画支持 ALEMBIC 导入（试验功能） ####

现在支持 Alembic 动画导入了！Alembic 使得复杂动画能够被离线制作，并在 UE4 中实时渲染！该功能目前仍处于试验阶段，各位可以试用并给我们反馈意见。

![image alt text][image alt text 10]

我们现在导入 Alembic 数据有几种方式：

*  静态模型。Alembic 的单帧动画数据会被导入为一个静态模型资源（不含动画）。
 *  几何体缓存。这是一种新的动画资源类型，能够对顶点动画进行回放。导入的 Alembic 动画将会被逐帧回放。性能上因模型本身的复杂度会大不相同，并不是所有的情形下都能够得到优化处理。
 *  骨架网格体。只要顶点数量不发生变化的时候，这是用于回放 Alembic 动画数据最有效的方式。在导入时，动画序列会使用一个 PCA 压缩，这时通用的姿势（基础）会被分离并计算权重，来组成一个回放时的原始动画。其中的百分比或者固定的基础姿势数量可以在导入时作为压缩等级选项来进行调整。

#### 新货：用于模型预览的场景 ####

新增了一个功能，在预览静态网格体或者骨架网格体时可以设置预览时的场景。

![image alt text][image alt text 11]

在静态网格体和骨架网格体的编辑器中有一个新的 Preview Scene Settings 面板界面。这里可以多个方案（场景）来预览模型，并且方案是可以被修改的：

*  方向光（颜色、强度、朝向）
 *  天光（HDRI 环境贴图，强度、朝向）
 *  后处理设置（基于后处理体积）

![image alt text][image alt text 12]

我们还增加了一些示例用的功能：

*  手动旋转环境（按住 K 键）和方向光（按住 L 键）
 *  自动旋转光照环境（方向光和环境）
 *  快速隐藏地面（O 键）和环境（I 键）

#### 新货：模型贴花 ####

新的模型贴花功能能够有效的将材质贴到一个静态网格体上，可以把它看作在网格体上的第二个网格体，但共享了原网格体的拓扑结构和材质。

![image alt text][image alt text 13]

上图中的柱子每个都是一个基础的模型覆盖了另一个单独的破碎模型。如下面的线框图所示，左面的柱子使用了模型贴花来获得更好的颜色、法线、粗造度的混合效果。而右图则是简单的材质覆盖，这里做一个对比。

![image alt text][image alt text 14]![image alt text][image alt text 15]

和延迟贴花不同，这里没有涉及任何投射，因此一个典型的贴花模型，由于和模型紧贴，可能要在材质中包括一个表面的偏移，另外，还要小心对于 LOD 的模型，贴花可能会在 LOD 时造成不好的效果。

#### 新货：空间交互组件 ####

使用空间交互组件，可以为控件组件在游戏世界中模拟出硬件输入事件。

![image alt text][image alt text 16]

可以将它像镭射指示器一样附加于任何物体上来和控件进行交互，也有其他一些选项可供自定义行为使用。当标准输入来自玩家控制器时，可以将该输入定向到交互组件上来模拟一个特定的硬件输入，比如鼠标左键按下/抬起，并根据当前用户悬停的物体来实现。

对于以前依靠直接在空间组件中点击鼠标来实现的做法而言，这个通道已不再支持。用户需要先附加一个交互组件（在鼠标模式下），并在输入事件发生时进一步传递输入给交互组件来实现。

#### 新货：VR 项目模板 ####

我们这次新增了一个项目模板，为桌面和主机的虚拟现实项目专门设计。

![image alt text][image alt text 17]![image alt text][image alt text 18]

要访问这个模板，只需在新建项目的窗口中选择 VR 项目即可。

这个蓝图项目的设置已经为在 VR 上能跑到每秒 90 帧做了准备。为了支持不同类型的控制器，该模板包含了两种运动方式，分别在两套不同的 Pawn 蓝图中实现。第一套为游戏手柄设计，另外一套则是为运动控制器设计。在使用运动控制器时，可以瞬移到不同的位置来抓去、扔出物体。将来的更新中会提供本模板的 C++ 版本，另外移动平台的 VR 模板以后也会到来。

#### 新货：移动设备自定义后处理过程 ####

现在在移动设备上也能使用自定义的后处理材质了！看看这个移动渲染器上的“电视雪花屏”效果吧。

![image alt text][image alt text 19]

*  这个功能需要你打开在项目设置中的 "Mobile HDR" 选项
 *  支持获取混合位置在 ‘Before Tonemapping’ 和 ‘After Tonemapping’ 的 PostProcessInput0 (SceneColor)
 *  此功能目前尚不支持那些需要用“马赛克”编码来达成HDR渲染的旧安卓设备。
 *  目前还不支持像素深度信息

#### 新货：支持移动设备的光通道 ####

现在在移动设备上也能使用光通道了！这允许你有选择性的用指定的灯光影响物件。对于需要高级光照的动画来说相当有意义。

![image alt text][image alt text 20]

*  在不同的通道中能支持多个方向光。
 *  每个渲染对象（Primitive）只会受一个方向光影响。在渲染对象（Primitive）上的第一个光通道设置会决定它会受哪个方向光的影响。
 *  固定或者动态的方向光生成的 CSM 阴影只会投影到匹配光通道设置的渲染对象（Primitives）上。
 *  动态点光源完全支持光通道。

#### 新货：MAC 上的 SHADER MODEL 5 渲染 ####

Mac Metal 现在能够默认开启 Shader Model 5 的支持了。这将使得所有 Mac OS X 10.11.6 的 Metal 上可用的特性都能在虚幻引擎 4 中得以使用。

![image alt text][image alt text 21]

*  实现了 RHI 线程和平行调度分发渲染指令。
 *  对 Metal 计算 shader 的支持。
 *  支持在 AMD GPU 上的异步计算。
 *  启用了原先在 Mac 上不可用的一些高阶渲染特性，包括：
    
     *  高质量的动态曝光功能（也被称作人眼适应）。
     *  环境反射 Shader 计算 —— 仅在 4.13 版本且有独立显卡设备上工作。
     *  距离场环境遮蔽 —— 仅在 4.13 版本且有独立显卡设备上工作。
     *  距离场投影 —— 仅在 4.13 版本且有独立显卡设备上工作。

#### 新货：物理动画组件（试验功能） ####

新增了物理动画组件，能够很容易的通过物理来驱动骨架网格体的动画行为！

![image alt text][image alt text 22]![image alt text][image alt text 23]

该组件能够直接设置马达的强度，并使用一个预先设置的物理动画配置，该配置是在 PhAT 中创建并编辑的。PhAT 中新的 "Physical Animation Profiles" 功能为不同的游戏内容中的角色提供了强大的支持，并能够为特殊动画提供调整的手段。

可以在 PhAT 的工具中创建并编辑不同的配置，并在运行时很容易就能对它们做改动。在蓝图中看一下新的 "Apply Physical Animation Profile" 和 “Apply Physical Animation Settings” 函数，它们能够动态的改变物理动画的行为。

#### 新货：过程生成模型的切割 ####

对于过程生成网格体组件，现在有一个工具可以在运行时对它进行切割。

![image alt text][image alt text 24]

在切割后，我们添加了 ‘capping’ 几何体，并创建了第二个过程生成网格体组件，作为预期的 ‘另一半’。

另外，过程生成网格体也支持简单的碰撞，因此可以启用物理模拟，最后，我们添加了一个工具根据静态网格体数据拷贝给过程生成网格体（要在 cooked 的版本下工作的话，‘Allow CPU Access’ flag 必须在静态网格体上被设置）。

#### 新货：VR 中的模型表面涂抹 ####

现在 VR 编辑器中可以直接对贴图和模型表面进行涂抹。

![image alt text][image alt text 25]

这里便可以使用运动控制手柄在 VR 的沉浸环境下直接对静态网格体表面进行涂抹。只需要打开 “模式” 面板，点击 “Mesh Paint” 分页。然后只需要在场景中选择一个物体，瞄准它并扣下手柄扳机就能涂抹了。压力敏感度也由手柄扳机按钮支持，并且可以按住 “Modifier” 按钮来擦除当前的绘制。

#### 新货：VR 中的植被涂抹 ####

在这次的版本中，可以使用运动手柄在 VR 中直接绘刷表面植被。

![image alt text][image alt text 26]

选择一个植被类型，用镭射线指向所需要的位置并扣下扳机扳机按键就能绘刷植被！还可以按住 Modifier 键来擦除植被。按压的力度也是有效的。另外，植被编辑器也为 VR 中更好的使用而做了一些改进，但目前仍然有一些功能不可用，比如 lasso 工具和选取工具。

#### 新货：VR 中的颜色选取工具 ####

现在在 VR 中颜色选取窗口也可直接使用了。因此可以直接对场景中的灯光或者其他 Actor 的颜色属性进行修改。也可以使用颜色选取器来作为 VR 中的顶点绘制和贴图绘制的用途来使用。

![image alt text][image alt text 27]

#### 新货：VR 编辑器直接运行游戏 ####

为了更容易的制作游戏原型，现在能够在 VR 编辑器内直接启动 VR 游戏。只需要在快速菜单上点击 “Play” 便能直接启动游戏进入 VR！退出游戏回到 VR 编辑器的操作是两个手柄同时按住 Grip 按钮，并且同时扣下扳机按钮。

![image alt text][image alt text 28]

#### 新货：VR 物体控制工具改进 ####

VR 编辑器中的移动工具也做了改进，更加易用并且还有一些新的特性！

![image alt text][image alt text 29]

平移和旋转物体更加自然，在 VR 中也可以通过一个 2D 平面来一致的平移或缩放物体。之后我们还会对该工具做进一步的改进。

#### 新货：VR 编辑器中的手电筒功能 ####

通过使用快速菜单，现在可以在手柄上增加一个手电筒，来照亮场景中的暗部，或者通过它来查看不同材质和灯光的交互效果。

![image alt text][image alt text 30]

#### 新货：在 VR 编辑器中截屏 ####

现在可以直接在 VR 中截屏了！

![image alt text][image alt text 31]

#### 新货：VR 编辑模式的自动启用 ####

现在，当 VR Editor 模式被开启时，不再需要手动的点击 VR 按钮来进入或退出 VR 模式。在编辑器为当前激活窗口时，只需要带上头显设备，就会自动进入 VR 编辑模式，但移除头显设备时便自动退出 VR 编辑模式。

![image alt text][image alt text 32]

如果需要的话，在 VR 的试验功能处有一个设置来开关是否使用这个自动的功能。

![image alt text][image alt text 33]

#### 新货：SEQUENCER 的导入/导出 ####

Sequencer 现在支持以 CMX EDL 文件格式的导入和导出，来回非线编编辑包的交互。

![image alt text][image alt text 34]

上图显示了一个 sequence 的 shot 被导出到 Adobe Premiere Pro 中。每个 sequence 的 shot 被写成一个单独的视频文件，并被 EDL 文件引用。任何在 Premiere 中的改动则可以被重新导入到 UE4 的 Sequencer 中！

Sequencer 导出 OpenEXR 文件的 HDR 数据功能现在扩展了一些，用户可以选择 HDR 数据编码时的色域设置。

![image alt text][image alt text 35]

最后，Sequencer 现在支持直接导入 FBX 动画给一个物体或者一个轨道。也可以将动画轨道导出成 FBX！

#### 新货：SEQUENCER 在渲染器上的 BURN-IN ####

在将电影序列渲染成品时，可以为输出图片配置 “Burn-in”。这个功能能更方便的识别每个 Track Shot。

![image alt text][image alt text 36]

#### 新货：媒体播放的框架结构翻新 ####

这次媒体框架 API 被彻底翻新了，还加了很多新功能！现在能够在项目中嵌入实时的视频和音频，还有其他诸多强大的特性。

![image alt text][image alt text 37]

*  为播放多个媒体源的播放列表资源
 *  支持回放音频
 *  改进了导入媒体文件的过程
 *  改进了蓝图的整合
 *  在多个平台上改进了性能
 *  在 GPU 上进行像素格式转换
 *  对一些平台支持动态改变视频分辨率

Android

*  支持多个音频轨道
 *  支持可用 HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) 的设备（m3u8）

Playstation 4

*  HTTP Live Streaming （HLS）
 *  回放控制的改进（Pause，SetRate，等）
 *  媒体文件可以预先缓存到内存中
 *  从 FArchive 打开媒体
 *  能够同时播放多个视频（可能需要在设定中增大内存池）

Windows

*  现支持 H.264
 *  对 HTTP(S) 和 RTSP 流媒体支持的更友善
 *  更好的错误处理和日志记录
 *  改进稳定性和可用性
 *  对于非标准或不支持的编码格式处理的更加优雅

备注

*  对 macOS/iOS 的支持当前为试验功能 （AvfMedia 插件）
 *  对 Linux 的支持为试验功能 （GitHub 上的 VlcMedia 插件）
 *  对 Video-Over-IP 的支持为试验功能 （GitHub 上的 NdiMedia 插件）
 *  XboxOne （MfMedia） 和 HTML5 暂时还不支持
 *  和 Sequencer/视频录像 的功能整合计划在 4.14 中实现
 *  PlatformMediaSource 资源暂时还没有实现

#### 更新：各平台 SDK 更新 ####

在每次版本中，我们对会将引擎对各大平台 SDK 更新到最新的版本。同样在这次的版本中，现在已经能够在 Windows 下使用二进制的 UE4 版本直接远程编译 iOS/tvOS 的项目了！

![image alt text][image alt text 38]

*  iOs/tvOS: 在 Windows 下使用 Unreal Engine Launcher 下载的二进制 UE4 版本已经可以直接编译具有代码的项目了。（当然仍然需要某处有一台 Mac 来远程编译）
 *  macOS: 现支持 Xcode8 和 macOS 10.13 Sierra
 *  iOS/tvOS: 现支持 iOS10/tvOS10
 *  Xbox One: 更新到 August 2016 XDK
 *  Playstation 4: 更新到 PS4 SDK 3.508.201
 *  Oculus Rift: 更新到 Oculus 1.6 Runtime
 *  SteamVR: 更新到 OpenVR 1.0.2
 *  Google VR: 为 iOS 添加了 Google VR (Cardboard) 的支持
 *  OSVR: 更新到 v0.6-1194-g0c54f5e
 *  Android: Google Play Games native C++ SDK 更新到 2.1
 *  Android: Google Play Services 更新到 9.2.0
 *  Android: 支持在 Nougat 上运行，即 Android 7.0
 *  Vulkan API: 更新 SDK 为 1.0.17.0 （面向 安卓 及 Windows 平台）

#### 更新：地表的表面细分的功能改进 ####

硬件的地形曲面细分现在更快了！现在地形的渲染只会在最高级的 LOD 上做硬件曲面细分，并将地形对次一级的 LOD 做渐变过渡。低级别的 LOD 不再做曲面细分，这将大幅提升性能，并对靠近摄像机部分的画面细节再次提升。

![image alt text][image alt text 39]

在上图的可视化结果中，最高级别的 LOD 渲染时启用了曲面细分，而其他 LODs（颜色）渲染时则不使用曲面细分。

#### 新货：动画 POSE 资源 ####

我们为动画资源增加了一个新的类型，叫做 Pose 资源。它包含一组骨骼的位置，可以被附加在其他动画上使用，类似于顶点在混合空间中的用法。

![image alt text][image alt text 40]

一个用途可以支持面部表情动画，要么通过 FACS（Facial Action Coding System） 驱动，或者 viseme 曲线驱动。可以用这套系统通过混合其他姿势来创造新的动画。

可以在 Persona 中的 Create Asset 菜单，或者内容管理器中的内容菜单，从一个动画序列资源中创建 Pose 资源。在创建 Pose 时资源的名字会自动生成，之后可以手动对它重新命名，或者使用剪贴板粘帖给所有资源同时重新命名。

Pose 由普通动画曲线驱动。在动画中都能看到这个曲线。在 Persona 中如果想要从曲线中预览一个 Pose，需要设置当前预览 Pose 资源。

![image alt text][image alt text 41]

在动画图表中，可以使用 Pose Blender 节点（或者是 Pose By Name），根据输入曲线来输出 Pose 信息。

![image alt text][image alt text 42]

为了支持这个系统，我们对如何处理附加混合的缩放做了改进。将来我们希望对其他资源也支持曲线（比如声音波形资源），以用来驱动 Pose 资源或者顶点变化。

#### 新货：动作驱动的动画节点（试验功能） ####

我们新增了一个 Pose Driver 节点，可以通过它根据一个骨骼的运动来驱动曲线数值（比如顶点变化的目标权重）。

![image alt text][image alt text 43]

这里使用了一个 RBF（Radial Basis 函数）基于目标骨骼的朝向和驱动数值之间做插值。使用一个 Pose 资源来定义骨骼的目标姿势，以及每个姿势上所期望的曲线数值。该节点能够作为一个 Pose Space Deformer，根据骨骼的朝向驱动正确的混合形状。

#### 新货：动画节点姿势的查看功能 ####

动画图表中的节点可以在 Persona 中进行查看了。

![image alt text][image alt text 44]

这个功能提供了一个方式来查看动画图表中任意节点位置计算得出的动画效果的实时显示。可以同时查看多个节点，以便于对一些可疑的问题更容易的找到原因。这个功能对调试复杂的动画蓝图系统是非常有用的，而以前只能通过将想观察的节点直接连接至 ROOT 上并重新编译蓝图才能看到效果。

#### 更新：场景捕获功能的改进 ####

和新的 “蓝图绘制到 Render Target” 功能一起，场景捕获的功能做了改进并且更加有用了！

![image alt text][image alt text 45]

*  现支持正交投射。
 *  当蓝图通过 Capture Scene 函数更新场景获取画面时，它会立刻执行，使得画面能够对 Draw Material to Render Target 进行处理
 *  不透明度以 Alpha 形态捕获，这能够对场景捕获时部分渲染并且方便之后和其他场景合成。
 *  各种 GBuffer 属性现在也能被捕获，包括深度。
 *  新增了 ‘Hidden Actors’ 和 ‘Show Only Actors’ 数组，使用它们可以较容易的控制场景捕获时那些要被渲染。

![image alt text][image alt text 46]

游戏的特定效果，比如战争迷雾，可以根据模型的可见性来决定是否在正交场景捕获是渲染，然后再使用 Draw Material To Render Target 对图像进行处理。

#### 更新：折射材质的改进 ####

有个新的 “像素法线偏移” 的折射模式，基于顶点法线，并根据像素法线和顶点法线的差异计算折射便宜。这倒不是基于物理的算法但能够使得平面的水面得到折射效果。

![image alt text][image alt text 47]

左：简单的场景，没有折射

中：默认的折射方法，引起了水面不希望见到的常量偏移

右：像素法线偏移折射方法，根据法线贴图的差异计算

![image alt text][image alt text 48]

#### 新货：来自射线跟踪的贴图坐标 ####

我们在项目设置中增加了一项支持来自射线跟踪下的贴图坐标（UV）。

![image alt text][image alt text 49]

该选项在 项目设置 -> Physics -> Optimizations。在启用时，可以使用 ‘Find Collision UV’ 函数做一次碰撞检测并对任意 UV 通道在该碰撞处获取 UV 信息。该功能会使用额外一些内存，作为 UV 信息的一部分拷贝需要被保存到 CPU 访问的内存中。

#### 更新：SPLINE 编辑的改进 ####

蓝图编辑器中默认编辑 Spline 组件

现在可以在蓝图编辑器中直接对 Spline 组件的控制点进行编辑。默认情况下会创建新的蓝图实例，也可以对关卡中放置的示例逐一覆盖。

![image alt text][image alt text 50]

"Reset to Default" 操作可以将当前实例的 spline 恢复到蓝图类默认状态。任何对蓝图类的修改都会被自动的应用到那些没有做过自定义修改的实例上。

![image alt text][image alt text 51]

细节面板中对 spline 控制点的数值编辑

原先并没有方法来精确的控制各个点和他们的缩放、倾向、角度信息。现在这些属性可以在当前选中 spline 时的细节面板中直接编辑了：

![image alt text][image alt text 52]

新的 spline 点属性

现在 spline 点能够逐个定义进入角和离去角，以及一个仲裁输入键值。以前只允许 spline 不连续，而以后可以在点上有更多控制手段。在设计 spline 线路时这会带来很多帮助。

在 spline 可视化窗口中，Spline 组件细节面板上，菜单中有一个选项可以允许每个进入角和离去角的单独设置，而不再是锁定的状态：

![image alt text][image alt text 53]

作为可以可以每个点设置输入值的结果，现在有另一个方法来定义一个封闭 spline 的循环位置的输入值：

![image alt text][image alt text 54]

如果输入值或者循环点未被定义，那么仍然和以前一样，会从 0.0 处开始，并每个点增加 1.0。

蓝图中的 spline 延迟更新

有时候，可能希望在蓝图的构造脚本中过程生成 spline。先前每个对 spline 的操作都会造成 spline 重新构建，现在，为了优化的目的，在每个 spline 点上操作后都能够指定 spline 是否需要重新构建。因此有一个转为更新 spline 用的节点。

![image alt text][image alt text 55]

为构建脚本输入 spline 点

有时候在 spline 可视化编辑器中编辑 spline，并在蓝图脚本中对它进一步改造。比如蓝图可以锁定所有的可编辑点到一个球体的表面，类似这样子：

可以通过勾选 "Input Spline Points to Construction Script" 属性来实现：

#### 新货：子动画蓝图 ####

现在，可以在动画蓝图中使用 ‘Sub Anim Instance’ 节点，来引用另一个子动画蓝图，这么做可以将一个巨大的动画蓝图分解成几个不同的部分，比如分解成 “运动” 部分和 “物理” 部分。

![image alt text][image alt text 58]

子蓝图的成员变量可以被对外暴露并作为节点的输入引脚。子动画蓝图和它的外部蓝图必须使用同一个骨架结构。

#### 新货：动画曲线视图 ####

我们从 Persona 中医除了骨架曲线的分页，将这部分功能改进并作为动画曲线分页。这里可以对曲线进行重命名或删除曲线，以及预览曲线的数据。

![image alt text][image alt text 59]

这里可以看到当前骨架下的所有曲线，或者来自上一个资源的当前活跃曲线。这里还可以根据特定类型对曲线进行过滤。请注意我们将默认曲线改称为“属性”，因此任何动画曲线都将有默认属性曲线。

如果想要修改曲线数值，可以去掉 Auto 的勾选项，或者直接输入数值。

#### 新货：UMG 控件中的 SPRITE ####

现在可以使用 Paper2D Sprite 作为 UMG 和 Slate 空间的 Brush 输入。除了可以对已有的 UI 有更好的使用外，这么做还对空间渲染带来很多优化效果，在很多平台上 drawcall 的数量始终很紧张。不同的 Sprite 可以作为同一个贴图数据并在 Slate 中整合在一起，渲染时共享同一个层面以提高效能。

#### 更新：VR 中即时立体渲染的优化 ####

这次对即时立体渲染做了一些改进，包括了将 velocity pass 移动到即时立体渲染中，多视口支持对 PS4 也起效，这在使用 ISR 过程的时候带来巨大的性能提升。

#### 新货：GPU 顶点变形（MORPH TARGET） ####

现在项目可以通过 GPU 在 硬件上计算 Shader Model 5 的顶点变形。这么做将释放更多的 CPU 计算性能。

![image alt text][image alt text 62]

#### 更新：优化地形 SHADER 的内存 ####

现在对于地形材质来说，编译少得多的 Shader 组合，改进了第一次 Shader 的加载编译时间，在编辑器的迭代工作和 Shader Cache 的大小及内存占用上都做了优化。

#### 更新：移动平台的 SHADER 优化 ####

Combined Static 和 CSM 阴影模式在 4.12 中就有了，这个模式下，静态方向光源能够对静态物体产生静态阴影，对动态物体产生 CSM 阴影。在 4.13 中，对造成 CSM 阴影的动态物体会根据它们的边界自动的选取合适的 shader，不再需要手动的为每个受相关光照影响的物件指定标签了。

#### 新货：地形导入插件 ####

这次为地形文件格式新增了一个插件 API，为地形支持不同的高度图和权重图的文件格式。现存的 raw 支持和 png 支持也被更新到了新的 API。特别是 png 支持的部分，也是一个要实现其他新的地形文件格式插件的很好的参考示例。

#### 新货：安卓的自动测试 ####

现在项目启动器可以打包并同时在多个安卓设备上启动游戏。每个设备上运行的应用程序都会通过 USB 和主机电脑通信，并显示在 Session Frontend 窗口中。

可以在所有设备上启动自动化测试，并在 Session Frontend 中查看结果。

![image alt text][image alt text 63]

#### 更新：安卓上的 OPENGL ES 3.1 ####

虽然 UE4 并不支持一些 OpenGL ES 3.0 和 3.1 的特性，但现在可以在安卓设备上指定使用 ES 3.1。这里会为安卓设备带来一些 Metal 和 Vulkan 的高端特性，能够使用 16 个贴图采样，以及使用统一的缓存区来改进性能。

可以为项目打包同时选择 ES 2.0 和 ES 3.1 shader，设备会自动使用当前兼容下的最佳 shader 平台。

![image alt text][image alt text 64]

#### 新货：移动平台打包引导 ####

我们添加了一个 Mobile Packaging Wizard 来帮助生成一个最小的需要上传到 AppStore 的程序以及其他可以通过云端下载的内容。

![image alt text][image alt text 65]

*  这种类型的打包方式对具有固定 DLC 更新到大型游戏很常见
 *  这么做也能够使得用户可以仅下载设备相关的内容，比如符合设备所需的 shader 和贴图格式等
 *  该 Wizard 可以从 Project Launcher 窗口的创建新增配置选项处打开

#### 新货：移动设备支持全精度材质 ####

在移动设备上，材质有一个选项可以在 Pixel Shader 上使用全精度（默认是中度精度），例如这么做对于使用世界坐标参与计算的材质就能带来效果的帮助。

![image alt text][image alt text 66]

#### 新货：安卓设备的二进制 SHADER 缓存 ####

已编译的 Shader 会被保存在磁盘上用于第一次加载使用，并在之后的运行中被重用。

*  要求 GL\_OES\_get\_program\_binary 扩展
 *  默认关闭，仅能在安卓设备上开启。(r.UseProgramBinaryCache=1)

#### 更新：本地化文本格式改进 ####

为了更准确的实现文本的翻译，我们改进了本地化文本的格式。

复数形式：:

*  复数形式可以根据一个给定的数字，使用多个文本。复数形式可以是 Cardinal 格式，比如 "There is 1 cat", “There are 4 cats”，或者是 Ordinal 格式，比如）“You came 1st!”, “You came 2nd!”，等等。
 *  复数形式通过 key->value 一组来定义，并支持任意一下关键字（有 culture 的 [CLDR Data][] 来定义，）：zero, one, two, few, many, other. 数值是另一个引用字符串，并可以包含格式标记。
 *  Cardinal Format 示例："There \{NumCats\}|plural(one=is,other=are) \{NumCats\} \{NumCats\}|plural(one=cat,other=cats)"
 *  Ordinal Format 示例："You came \{Place\}\{Place\}|ordinal(one=st,two=nd,few=rd,other=th)!"

性别形式：

*  性别形式能够根据 ETextGender 的值来对文本使用不同的字符串，比如："Le guerrier est fort", “La guerrière est forte”.
 *  性别形式定义了一个列表，顺序是男性，女性，中性（中性为可选）。数值是另一个字符并且可以包含格式标记。
 *  格式示例："\{Gender\}|gender(Le,La) \{Gender\}|gender(guerrier,guerrière) est \{Gender\}|gender(fort,forte)"

韩文位置后处理：

*  韩文位置后处理能够在显示韩文的时候处理语法规则，并根据结尾处的辅音或元音在正确的位置插入字形，比如："사람은", “사자는”.
 *  韩文位置后处理有一个列表定义，顺序为 辅音，元音。数值则是可选的字符串。
 *  格式示例："\{Arg\}|hpp(은,는)"

为了复数形式和性别形式的支持，正确的传入 数字/性别 的数值，所有的 FText::Format(...) 家族函数现在传入 FFormatArgumentValue 而不是 FText。这样可以准确的从数值类型、ETextGender 或者 FText 来执行函数。

在蓝图中也暴露了这些功能，在 "Format Text" 的节点上的通配符输入引脚：

![image alt text][image alt text 67]

![image alt text][image alt text 68]

如果预期会被多次调用 FText::Format(...) 的话，还可以预编译格式模式来重用。只需要新建并保存一个 FTextFormat 实例并将它作为模式传给 FText::Format(...)。

#### 新货：多线程声音（试验功能） ####

除编辑器外，现在 sound cue 的评估和激活的 wave 实例的确定性计算能独立于游戏线程运行。正对游戏的活跃的 sound cue 的数量和复杂度，每个游戏的收益可能有所不同，不过在有些情况下，在我们的测试中，我们发现了差不多每帧有1毫秒的游戏线程时间转移到了音频线程。

这个功能在 4.13 中默认是关闭的，不过你可以尝试在 BaseEngine.ini 的\[Audio\]部分修改 UseAudioThread 为true 来打开它。

#### 新货：网络回放的向下兼容 ####

现在，录像录制功能有了向后兼容性。这意味着你可以修改版本，甚至添加或者删除一些用以同步的属性，然后再在新版本中打开一个在旧版本中录制的录像。

如果要测试这个功能，你可以简单的用某个版本录制一个录像，改变一些同步的属性，并且在新的版本中打开同样的录像！

大部分工作是在每个同步属性的底层的反射信息中被处理的。对于自定义序列化的网络数据（UObject::NetSerialize），你现在可以使用两个新加到 FArchive 的方法（FArchive::EngineNetVer() 和 FArchive::GameNetVer()），这些可以让你获取当前版本的网络数据流并且手动处理旧的数据。

#### 新货：构建图表脚本化（试验功能） ####

BuildGraph 脚本可被用来创建自定义的UE4构建命令序列用以自动化构建。这些图（构建脚本）以 XML 脚本的形式，用类似 MSBuild，Ant 或者 NAnt 的语法，由一个有依赖 节点 的网络来组成各个 任务。

![image alt text][image alt text 69]

一些 BuildGraph 脚本的示例存在了这里：Engine/Build/Graph/Examples/…

#### 新货：制作安装版本的脚本 ####

以制作过程更简单以及对其他的开发团队更透明的引擎定制化为目标，我们已经用 BuildGraph 脚本语言重写了可安装的UE4发布版本的构建过程。脚本在 Engine/Build/InstalledEngineBuild.xml，能用 AuomationTool 和一下的命令行来运行。

Windows:

BuildGraph -target="Make Installed Build Win64” -script=Engine/Build/InstalledEngineBuild.xml -clean

Mac:

BuildGraph -target="Make Installed Build Mac” -script=Engine/Build/InstalledEngineBuild.xml -clean

加上 -listonly 选项来查看定制化构建过程的可用选项列表。

#### 新货：作为虚幻属性的 TSETS ####

TSets现在能被用来作为UPROPERTY了，也就是说可以被用来做自动的序列化，垃圾回收，ini设置以及通过细节面板来编辑（受限于用字符串来输入（例如"(1,2,3)"））。类似于TMap，TSet的属性目前还不能作为“同步属性”以及不能被用在蓝图中。

## 版本变更详单（以下保留原文） ##

 *  New: Import Animation:
    
     *  Renamed the Animation Name setting to Override Animation Name.
     *  Option to add suffix for importing material curves by name. By default \_mat.

     *  There is now a general purpose latent lambda command you can use to run arbitrary code latently.
     *  Added Inlined Add Command for regular and networked commands to the base automation class, to avoid the use of the macro, which prevents breakpoints from working in lambda code.
     *  Frontend now has better column displays offering more room to the test name.
     *  Changed several events to the automation controller to multicast delegates so that many could hook them.
     *  The UI now refreshes the selection after tests finish so that the output log updates.
 *  New: Logging ensure fails as errors. Automated tests with ensure fails will be unsuccessful.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash in Render Output Validation automation test when running with cooked content.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that could prevent a static mesh socket from being imported with the correct rotation.

 *  New: Added the ability to set PNG and JPG files as a Splash Image from the Project Settings.
 *  New: Locking the mouse to a viewport is now determined by an enumerated value (Don't Lock, Lock on Capture, Lock Always) rather than a boolean.
 *  New: Changed sRGB Preview to be the default in the Color Picker.
 *  New: Changed Memory Profiler 2 to deselect current bar when clicking off the histogram. This allows the user to see the top level group data again.
 *  New: Updated Interface classes to now have their own entry in the New C++ Class wizard.
 *  New: Updated Obj exporter to now export all mesh components contained in Blueprint Level instance.
 *  New: Refactored the way debugger commands are executed in PIE. Now they are controlled using the Editor Key Bindings, for Play/Pause/Stop...etc, rather than the Debugger Commands ini settings.
    
     *  You can now do things like bind stop to Shift+Escape, if you wanted to test showing a menu when Escape is pressed, instead of closing PIE.

     *  Select the plugin and there's a small link at the bottom of the plugin tile letting you execute the package operation for sharing your plugin.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when renaming the current level in the Content Browser.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash with the curve editor widget if you box selected outside of the visible area.

     *  This fixes an occasional crash when copy/pasting BSP brushes from one level to another.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when hovering over a submenu while entering a Blueprint node comment in the Context Menu. In general, issues with opening submenus while a parent menu has focus.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash caused by repeatedly undoing and redoing a change in a level.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash for clicking the Install button multiple times when creating a new code project without a compiler installed.
 *  Bugfix: Made a number of fixes to spline mesh collision generation:
    
     *  A serious issue with DDC ID generation was fixed, in that the static mesh itself wasn't forming part of the key, hence any two splines with identical properties but different meshes would yield the same cache entry.
     *  Fixed how different collision boxes are transformed when rebuilding physics meshes. Convex collision transforms are now correctly taken into account, and spherical and capsule collision now gets correctly translated when a scale is applied to the start or the end of the spline mesh.
     *  Optimized physics rebuilding. A new Body Setup object is now only created when needed, otherwise it is reused.
     *  Fixed Spline Mesh collision building so that geometry does not default to being auto-inflated in PhysX.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where audio was being disabled after recording a movie.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Decal Visibility so that its behavior matches other visible actors with regard to the "Actor hidden in game" flag. This also makes it possible to animate it's visibility correctly with sequencer.
 *  Bugfix: Updated nodes in folders to be filtered so that other unfiltered children aren’t visible.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue when parsing LOD in a Static Mesh component when importing custom properties.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue importing an array inside a JSON Data Table.
    
     *  The JSON importer for a Data Table was appending the new data to the array rather than replacing it. It now clears the array prior to importing.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue when moving translation of the child when attached to the mirrored parent in viewport.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue when multi-selecting scaling when objects are rotated.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Post Process settings for blendable picker were not readable in the Details panel.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with single player PIE so that the window position is correctly fetched and saved, even when running a dedicated server. This does not interfere with stored positions for multiple client PIE.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where geometry operations were not undoable (eg. Material Placement).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where foliage instances were not being included when exporting a scene to FBX.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the Launcher Profile settings window was not always showing all available maps for cooking.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed issue preventing generation of JSON for nested structs in DataTable rows.
 *  Bugfix: Reverted the change to the Merge Actor tool where you could not merge a single mesh.
    
     *  This is needed if you want to have a single Actor merge multiple materials but not be merged with another Actor in the scene.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the scale widget axes to render correctly while the current viewport is in an orthographic view mode.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the Texture Editor to properly display Mip Level Count and Format for 2D Dynamic Textures.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the "Game Gets Mouse Control" setting in the preferences for the Level Editor to be correctly applied when Playing in Editor.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the names of Automation tests within the standalone Session Frontend to be displayed correctly rather than as solid white blocks.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed UnrealGameSync to now exclude deleted files when searching for the editor target name, which was sometimes preventing the editor from launching.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed UnrealGameSync so that syncing no longer fails if the current workspace has files open for move or add.

 *  Updated the Editor so that new windows will no longer open in between monitors when the primary monitor is not set to monitor 1.
 *  Improved DataTable import/export.
 *  Improved mesh vertex color painting:
    
     *  Lower LODs are now automatically fixed up for instances which were created in a previous bugged version of the engine.
     *  Since lower LODs cannot currently have their vertex colors edited, their vertex colors are always derived from LOD0.
     *  A bug has been fixed when building lower LODs so that vertices in neighboring octree nodes are considered when looking for the nearest vertex from LOD0 which corresponds. This improves the appearance of lower LODs' vertex colors.
     *  An issue has been fixed where static meshes with imported LODs would not have the lower LODs' override colors set when "Copy instance vertex colors to source mesh" was used.
     *  Various crashes when using mesh paint mode have been fixed, e.g. when selecting a previously selected mesh, when deleting an asset which has an instance currently selected.
 *  Improved MemoryAnalyser2:
    
     *  Upgraded to Visual Studio 2015.
     *  Clean up solution configurations. Only leave "Any CPU".
     *  Switch project to build with "Any CPU" rather than "x64".

     *  It will now switch to editing whenever Landscape you select.
 *  Bugfix: Added the ability for Landscape Grass Type to exclude decals by using the Receives Decals member.
 *  If a landscape material contains both a "Layer Blend" node and other landscape nodes referencing some of the same layers (e.g. sampling a layer for grass), the landscape editor will now use the ordering from the blend node for the target layers list.

##### WORLD BROWSER #####

*  Bugfix: Sub-Level layers were not showing up in the Layers tab when loaded as part of the world composition.
 *  Bugfix: The World Composition levels window was not correctly updated when creating or renaming levels using the Content Browser.
 *  Bugfix: World Composition origin shifting was not accounting for shifting the Dynamic Directional Light shadow casting.
 *  Bugfix: World composition sub-levels that had a child actor inside were becoming modified if any other sub-level was unloaded.

##### FOLIAGE #####

*  New: Added support for Lighting Channels to Foliage and Landscape Grass.
 *  New: A Foliage Type now includes all relevant fields from its Body Instance for editing.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the "Rebuilding hierarchical instanced mesh component, please resave map" warning was showing up when loading or entering PIE in maps with valid foliage.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where deleting a Foliage actor from the Foliage menu did not remove actors from PIE until the editor was restarted.

##### COOKER #####

*  New: Added more options to the Cooker for selecting Garbage Collection frequency:
    
     *  The new Cook Settings’ Max Memory Allowance setting is a percentage value which will trigger Garbage Collection if exceeded.
     *  The new Cook Settings’ Min Free Memory setting allows you to set a minimum free memory value which will trigger Garbage Collection.
 *  New: Added -skipcompile flag for running from Visual Studio.
    
     *  This will skip compilation when the -multiprocess flag is used.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a deterministic cooking issue with Static Mesh Component caused by using a Static Mesh before postload was called.
 *  Bugfix: Newly discovered session instances were not being added to an existing session in the Session Browser.
 *  Bugfix: Selecting an instance in a session with multiple instances did not deselect the previously selected instance correctly.
 *  Bugfix: Deterministic cooking issue where the shader name was stored inside the shader code for debugging purposes, but is now removed.
 *  Added a minor cooking optimization to unsolicited package markup.
 *  Added an optimization to string asset reference resolution to bring back performance lost from memory optimizations.
 *  Prevented clients from cooking when building only server configs.
 *  Improved cooking performance:
    
     *  Allow cooker to save packages opportunistically if the current package is compiling shaders.
     *  Allow cooker to load additional packages if blocked by other packages and memory is free.
 *  Improved cooker peak memory usage:
    
     *  Moved resolving string asset references to be just before package save instead of after load.
     *  Provide opportunity to garbage collect more frequently.

##### SEQUENCER #####

*  New: Added an option to maximize the viewport when starting recording with the sequence recorder.
 *  New: Added option to Convert to Possessable.
 *  New: Added option to record actors in the Sequence Recorder as possessables.
 *  New: Added play/pause/stop events to Level Sequence player as it was with the Matinee actor.
 *  New: Added "Reverse Play" and “Change Playback Direction” functions.
 *  New: Added support for exporting the scene and animation to FBX. This functionality should match the Matinee FBX export.
 *  New: Added visibility options to show/hide/only when selected 3D trajectories per transform section.
 *  New: Added an option to rewind the sequence when a recording is started. This defaults to 'on'.
 *  New: Added hotkey (alt-R) for recording selected actors with the sequence recorder.
 *  New: Added more play controls - shuttle backward, pause, shuttle forward (j, k, l).
 *  New: Added arbitrary property recording to the Sequence Recorder.
 *  New: Added support for additive Skeletal Animations. Evaluates all overlapping Skeletal Animation sections.
 *  New: Added support for montage based animation from Sequencer
 *  New: Added the ability to add burn-ins to Level Sequences.
 *  New: Added a draw tracking focus debug point for Cinematic Camera actors.
 *  New: Changed "Actor Name" in Sequence Recorder to be a pulldown menu so that the user can choose the actor directly rather than typing in a name.
 *  New: Display name of next Sequence in Sequence Recorder.
 *  New: Expose compressed EXR frames to Sequencer Capture UI and command line.
 *  New: Added \{shot\} and \{shot\_frame\} format args for movie captures.
 *  New: Track colors have been tweaked.
    
     *  Audio track brighter.
     *  Transform, bool, event tracks less saturated.
     *  Recording subsection more saturated.
     *  Fade track gradient.
 *  New: Added support for the named "PerformanceCapture" event which, like Matinee, calls Performance Capture in the Engine to output a screenshot when the event fires.
 *  New: Added the ability to show the Context Menu for more than one selected node.
    
     *  Certain operations (ie. Lock, Active, Label) now operate on all the selected nodes.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when right-clicking on a grouped vector keyframe in the timeline.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash which would happen sometimes when rendering a movie in a separate process.
 *  Bugfix: End any transactions on mouse down that weren't ended cleanly.
    
     *  This fixes a bug where if you drag with the left mouse button and click with the right mouse button, the transactions are left in an ambiguous state.
 *  Bugfix: Updated the Event track to no longer fire if the playback status is stopped.
    
     *  This fixes a bug where when playback is stopped and the movie scene sequence is returned to the start of playback, we don't want all the events from the last playback position to the start of playback to fire.
 *  Bugfix: Find corresponding PIE world actor for "Actor to Record".
    
     *  This fixes a bug where if you set the actor before PIE and then record, the recording does not work.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Skeletal Animations would evaluate one frame ahead of where they were supposed to be.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Transforms would not be captured if an anim recorder exists but the skeletal mesh that the anim recorder is supposed to capture doesn't exist.
    
     *  This fixes the first person template character not getting recorded.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the countdown timer in the Sequencer Recorder to now draw in Simulate mode as well as Play.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed dragging the leading edge of a skeletal animation section to now adjust the start offset of the animation clip.
 *  Bugfix: Key editor commit when user tabs away would lose focus. Key navigation buttons and track color button are no longer focusable.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the Player would stop after 60 seconds. Now assigns the player to a UPROPERTY so that it is not Garbage Collected.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the level visibility track would mark animated levels as dirty.
 *  Bugfix: Updated spawnables so that they can not be deleted from the viewport.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Blueprint classes as spawnables were not being re-instanced correctly.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where jitter would happen when jumping around in Sequencer.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Sequencer would redraw all viewport when in PIE.
 *  Bugfix: Updated node selection so that the selected nodes now only update if they have changed.
    
     *  This fixes a bug in the curve editor where undo re-selects and auto-frames.
 *  For legacy, properties with the CPF\_Interp flag can be animated in Matinee. It does not require the CPF\_Edit flag as well. This makes Sequencer consistent with Matinee.
 *  Optimized adding keys to rich curves to improve performance when recording data with the sequence recorder.
    
     *  Set the times and values at once as an ordered set.
 *  Removed curve editor visibility as a toggleable config.
    
     *  It is now just a toggleable state that defaults to false.
     *  This fixes unexpected behavior of staying in the curve editor when restarting the editor or switching to a different level sequence asset.
 *  Renamed "Expose to Matinee" to "Expose to Cinematics" in Blueprints.
 *  Select actors for corresponding selected keys or sections.
 *  Set event track evaluation order to fire first.
    
     *  This fixes some ambiguity and also a bug where transform tracks don't evaluate completely if the eval position is changed in the middle of evaluation.
 *  Set relative location, rotation, scale explicitly to identity instead of calling Reset Relative Transform because we don't want overlaps to fire until after the update pass.
 *  Improved recording indicator icon, text & timer.

##### VR-EDITOR #####

*  New: Updated foliage mode to now be fully integrated with VR Editor mode. You can paint down foliage while in VR!
 *  New: Added World button to the Quick Select menu to allow access to the World Settings menu.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where duplications could not be undone.
 *  Bugfix: Updated laser double-click events to now be sent when the trigger is pressed rather than when it is released.

     *  Foliage reapply tool.
     *  Foliage Lasso tool.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the laser’s hover point in the VR Editor actor wasn’t projected onto the corrected plan while rotating, translating, and scaling using gizmo.
    
     *  This fix snaps the hover point to the nearest line or plane according to the transformation.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the brush preview was still present while using a Foliage brush and hovering on top of the UI.
 *  Removed the "Simulate" button in the toolbar of the blueprint editor while in VR Editor mode because we currently cannot simulate in this mode.

#### GAMEPLAY FRAMEWORK ####

*  New: Added support for multi-jumping to Character Movement, and fixed infinite jumps when Jump Max Hold Time is set.
 *  New: Added "Mixed" replication mode for active gameplay effects.
    
     *  This will replicate active gameplay effects normally to their ability systems component's owner, but replicate a stripped down version to non-owners. This can help reduce bandwidth by as much as 2 KB per second.
 *  New: Added "Get Parent Actor" convenience function.
 *  New: Added Activate and Deactivate events to the Actor Component.
 *  New: Added arc-tracing functions "Predict Projectile Path" and “Suggest Projectile Velocity Medium Arc” to Gameplay Statics.
 *  New: Added "Relative To Initial FOV" option to Camera Anim, defaulting to true.
    
     *  If turned off, camera anims will use the camera's current FOV as the initial FOV for the animation.
 *  New: Added "Is Valid" Blueprint-exposed method for Gameplay Attribute.
 *  New: Added max depenetration distance settings for the Character Movement Component. Added controls to throttle logging when character is stuck in geometry so it doesn't spam the log.
    
     *  Depenetration settings are separated based on whether overlapping a Pawn versus other geometry, and furthermore by whether the Character is a proxy or not. Simulated proxies typically should not depenetrate a large amount because that effectively ignores the server authoritative location update.
     *  "Stuck" logging is controlled by the console var "p.CharacterStuckWarningPeriod". Set to number of seconds between logged events, or less than zero to disable logging.
 *  New: Added new "Load Level Instance" Blueprint node, which allows to create multiple transformed instances of a .umap without having to include in persistent level's list.
 *  New: Added new Blueprint library math/vector functions: "Find Closest Point On Segment", “Find Closest Point On Line”, “Get Point Distance To Segment”, and “Get Point Distance To Line”.
    
     *  Fixed comments on "Find Nearest Points On Line Segments".
     *  Fixed comments on "Point Dist To Line", and renamed "Line" parameter to "Direction".
 *  New: Added player Connect and Disconnect events to GameMode.
 *  New: Added the ability to separate players in local multiplayer for the Keyboard and Gamepads by using the setting "Offset Player Gamepad Ids" in the Project Settings under Maps & Modes.
 *  New: Added the ability to Get and Set the controller ID of a player controller from Blueprints.
 *  New: Added the ability to Get and Set Tick Interval for Actor and Component primary ticks from Blueprints.
 *  New: Updated Cheat Manager so it can now be subclassed via Blueprints and properties can be set for the Player Controller and Debug Camera Controller.
 *  New: Exposed "Override With" and “Copy Properties” in Player State to Blueprint Children.
 *  New: Made minimum quadtree size configurable in the Procedural Foliage Spawner.
 *  New: Added "Is Player Controller" function to Controller. The variable already existed, but wasn’t exposed.
 *  New: Added check to Post Actor Construction to avoid a Begin Play call on an Actor that is Pending Kill.
 *  New: Anim Root Motion was applying too much velocity to Character Movement when framerate is low causing moves to be substepped, or when movement mode changes during root motion playback.
    
     *  Added "Anim Root Motion Velocity" to the Character Movement Component to track last velocity extracted from anim root motion.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when cancelling PIE while in the middle of a seamless travel as a client.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash in Game Session if the GameMode’s Player State Class has become null.
 *  Bugfix: Updated Character movement to make sure the Last Update Location, Rotation, and Velocity are updated on client and server error corrections. The Force Position Update function calls Perform Movement regardless of velocity (there may be root motion or gravity effects).
 *  Bugfix: Updated Child Actors in a sublevel to no longer lose customizations made by the owning Actor's construction script when hiding and then unhiding the level.
 *  Bugfix: Updated Child Actors to no longer sometimes collide with objects at the origin when spawned.
 *  Bugfix: Updated Data Assets to now correctly report their size.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Actor Attachment Replication was not being cleared on detachment, which would cause issues with the actor's location for clients joining in progress.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Model Component replication in client/server PIE if BSP has been rebuilt.
 *  Bugfix: Updated comments on "Load Game From Slot" and “Delete Game in Slot”.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Mesh smoothing on clients was causing a popping briefly when crouching.
    
     *  This was due to a change in 4.12 where we started smoothing from Z location rather than always zeroing it (in certain movement modes).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the Root Motion network connections were not clearing the Root Motion Data, which would cause clients to jitter.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where it was not possible to stream in a sub-level whose name is a substring of another sub-level.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where an Instanced Static Mesh Component would not keep its instances when copy-pasting in the Editor.
 *  Bugfix: Updated the "Hidden In Game" checkbox to now be properly displayed when editing Scene Component properties.
 *  Bugfix: Improved pasting multiple cells into the Property Matrix to no longer depend on your selected tiles, only your target cell.
 *  Bugfix: Prevented forced drawing of the debug visualization for spline components in Test configuration.
 *  Removed GWorld from the Timer Manager.
 *  Updated "Remove Instances" on a Hierarchical Instanced Static Mesh Component to now properly rebuild the cluster tree, allowing “Get Instances Overlapping Box” to return correct results.
 *  Updated significance to now be correctly calculated when there are multiple viewpoints and significance is being sorted descending.
 *  Updated HUD so that Show HUD is no longer a config variable, but can be edited from a Blueprint.
 *  Improved "Move Component To Rotation".
 *  Added minor performance improvements in Player Input and Input Component by inlining and avoiding memory allocations.
 *  Updated numerous HUD properties to make them readable, and most of them also writable, from Blueprints.
 *  Updated Components so they can no longer be added during world tear down.
 *  Improved character movement linear smoothing in the presence of low net frequency updates.
 *  Improved comment about the Blocking Hit property in Find Floor Result, explaining it is a valid blocking hit that was not in penetration. Other conditions can be determined from the Hit Result itself.
 *  Made up/down behaviour for console history consistent and reverted to old ordering by default
 *  Moved Uninitialize Components outside (Actor Initialized) to always uninitialize components when actors gets destroyed early.
 *  Updated multi-arg console commands to now accept string commands with or without quotes.
 *  Optimized NaN and Infinite checks for FVector, FQuat, FRotator, FMatrix, FTransform. SIMD version "Vector Contains NaN Or Infinite" function also optimized on relevant platforms. Added startup tests for “Vector Contains NaN Or Infinite”.
    
     *  All our "Contains NaN" tests are in fact "Is NaN or Is Infinite", which is the same as "not Is Finite", so exploited this to simplify the tests. Both NaN and +/-Inf are not finite (http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/math/isfinite). In the future we should rename "Contains NaN".

#### LEARNING RESOURCES ####

##### CONTENT EXAMPLES #####

*  New: Added TP\_VirtualRealityBP to list of Blueprint templates

#### LOCALIZATION ####

*  New: Updated the Dialogue Wave voice actor so the direction can now be localized.
    
     *  Also, exported dialogue scripts now include a column that says whether they have a localized recording of that line of dialogue.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash caused by bad access of shared ‘this’ when closing an active IME context.
 *  Bugfix: Improved changing the loading phase of a target in the localization dashboard to now write to the default config.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where game targets were not being able to depend on other game targets in the Localization Dashboard.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Issues with gathering text from Blueprint Byte code.
    
     *  Bytecode in Blueprints is very volatile, and can only be safely gathered after it's been compiled (which is not guaranteed to have happened by the time we save the package). This change avoids caching any assets that contain scripts (non-data-only Blueprints), and instead will always load them to perform a gather (which will ensure the Blueprint bytecode is up-to-date due to compile-on-load).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Unicode string handling in the web browser widget’s Execute Javascript method.
 *  Updated Localization compilation to now specify an Archive Name to use.
 *  Made sure that en-US-POSIX is in our list of available cultures.
 *  Updated PO files to now only contain a single entry in the case of a native translation being exported.
    
     *  They used to contain the original entry, as well as an entry for the native translation, however the original entry would never be used.

#### NETWORKING ####

*  New: Added a "-CapturePercentage" command line parameter for Oodle which sets a percentage change of a connection to generate an Oodle capture.
 *  New: Added ability to amortize replay checkpoints. Use the console variable "demo.CheckpointSaveMaxMSPerFrame" to set the maximum time allowed (in ms) to spend saving checkpoints per frame.
 *  New: Added ability to get network version from FArchive (for replay compatibility support). Use Engine Net Ver/Game Net Ver.
 *  New: Added ability to skip over changed properties in Fast Array Serializer for replays (and will log incompatible property names).
 *  New: Added ability to skip over RPC parameters that have changed in replays for backwards compatibility.
 *  New: Allow Oodle captures to be generated in shipping configurations.
 *  New: Improved support for streaming levels in replays.
 *  New: Created a batch file, ExtractAllArchives.bat, which can pull down Oodle captures stored in Amazon S3.
 *  New: Created a batch file, BuildDictionary\_Generic.bat, that can generate an oodle dictionary from capture files in an arbitrary location.
 *  New: Low level network code will now notify the game of two new error types to be handled (Net Guid Mismatch or Net Checksum Failures). This kind of errors occur when there are incompatibilities in between client and server, usually because different cooked data is involved. This shouldn't occur in properly shipped builds but is good during development when the possibility to mix and match builds might happen on accident.
 *  New: Made some Oodle trainer commandlet improvements:
    
     *  Added a command line parameter to many Oodle trainer commandlet tasks for a changelist number to only process capture files from a specific changelist.
     *  When processing Oodle capture files, the Oodle trainer commandlet will now also look recursively in subdirectories.
     *  Refactored how the Oodle trainer commandlet processes capture files to make it easier to add new command line options for different tasks.
 *  New: Added some miscellaneous seamless travel cleanup + sanity checks.
    
     *  Cleanup the naming of variables and logic used to pick which actors will transfer to new world during seamless travel to more explicitly convey intent.
     *  Warn when there is no context for a world when destroying actors. It's likely that this world is the floating world during seamless travel, and if we hit this case, something is likely in a bad state
 *  New: Updated Oodle packet capture file names to now contain the branch name, the changelist of the build, and process ID used to generate the capture.
 *  New: The console variable "demo.AsyncLoadWorld" can now be overridden with the URL option "Async Load World Override" when playing a replay.
    
     *  When this setting is true, the engine will use seamless travel to load the replay map instead of using the default non-seamless travel method.
 *  New: The stat for the number of network actors (STAT\_NumNetActors) is now tracked on both the server and client.
 *  New: Updated Oodle compatibility to version 2.1.5.
 *  New: When properties are incompatible in replays, they will now be shown in the log.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash that could occur when using "open" command in a PIE window.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash that would occur when opening a project from a network drive.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed assert in channel cleanup code that could occur if the connection was cleaned up, and there were "Keep Processing Actor Channel Bunches Map" in-flight still.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed incorrect warning when Received Bunch fails for replays.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a memory leak when recording a replay on a client that was built using a client-only executable configuration.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing improper http header parsing when one or more of the headers are empty.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that could cause character movement to be saved incorrectly in replays.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that could cause the spectator controller for a client-recorded replay to incorrectly report that it was local controller during recording.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that was causing RPCs to be missing from replays that were recorded on clients.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed several issues and playback artifacts with character positions in replays.
 *  Deprecated the "Engine Net Version", “Engine Min Net Version”, and “Engine Negotiation Version” (use the Network Version struct instead).
 *  Disabled the ability to use hot-reload while PIE windows are open.
 *  Added extra logging in the form of "UPendingNetGame::InitNetDriver: Sending hello: 127.0.0.1" to help diagnose connection issues.
 *  Highly optimized replay checkpoint recording to take about 50% less time.
 *  Improved playback quality of character movement for replays that are recorded on a client.
 *  Keeping track of the number of actors stat (STAT\_NumActors) is now more efficient.
 *  Improved 'Too many calls to RPC' log message informativeness.
 *  Removed unused "In Bunch" constructor.
 *  The Oodle trainer commandlet will now only process capture files that end with the .ucap file extension.

#### ONLINE ####

*  New: Added PS+ check to account privilege check.
 *  New: Move Curl and PS4 HTTP request processing to a separate thread. HTTP manager will now start and tick HTTP requests on its own thread, removing the processing from the game thread. Hitches in HTTP requests no longer impact the game thread, and HTTP requests can be ticked more frequently by adjusting \[HTTP\] Http Thread Tick Rate in .ini config files.
 *  New: Online Subsystem modules have been moved to Plugins, out of Engine/Source. Engine's dependency on OnlineSubsystem modules have been removed, in some places replaced with a new interface UOnlineEngineInterface for a small subset of features Engine requires. UOnlineEngineInterface is implemented in UOnlineEngineInterfaceImpl. FUniqueNetId and FUniqueNetIdWrapper have been promoted to a basic type in core, but they are still opaque types and must be created by online subsystems.
 *  New: Added -port command line option for the Steam Online Subsystem.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a rare bug in the Build Patch Tool that would cause a manifest to not contain a chunk's information.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed shutdown crash in HTTP request completion delegate.
 *  The "Cancel Find Sessions" function in Online Session did not null out search result for LAN results. Future Find Session calls would fail with "search in progress".

#### OTHER ####

*  New: Changed the Gameplay Ability Actor Info's Anim Instance property to a Skeletal Mesh Component.
 *  New: Game window titles now show only the project title by default in shipping builds.
    
     *  The default window title for non-shipping builds remains unaltered.
     *  If there is a value stored in the Project Displayed Title setting, it will be displayed for all configurations.
     *  If there is a value stored in the Project Debug Title Info setting, it will be appended to the window title in non-shipping builds.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash after clearing Sound Wave Asset and Deleting Media Player from Content Browser.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash and incorrect re-initialization of media texture resource.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed failing to load Precached Media Source.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Local file paths without file:// open when pressing Enter, but not when clicking Go button.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Media player does not play the second item in the playlist on PS4.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed media source asset cannot be inherited in other modules.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed memory leak in the Wmf Media source resolver.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed packaged game does not load in Windows XP due to Wmf Media.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed problem where users couldn't close the Crash Report Client without sending the crash report.
 *  Added code in Auto Populate Instance Properties to populate vector and scalar parameter data.
 *  Allow symbol files to be skipped when staging build products as they are not essential for the staged project to run.
 *  Increased maximum compressed payload size for crash reports from 16MB to 32MB.
 *  Made PDBs optional build products for Cs Compile Build Graph task and added .dll.mdb check for Mono equivalent.

#### PAPER2D ####

*  New: Exposed Paper Tile Map and Paper Tile Set as Blueprint Types to make it easier to work with tile maps in Blueprints.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when mutating grouped sprite components at runtime, and cleaned up how collision rendering is done for grouped sprite components addressing some other issues as well.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bug that caused the tabs in the Flipbook, Sprite, and Code Project editors to show the editor name rather than the asset name.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue causing incorrect normals (and therefore lighting) on tilemaps in a number of circumstances including standalone or cooked builds.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed BP-created tile map components being incapable of having collision generated for them (still requires calling Set Layer Collision with rebuild=true or Rebuild Collision).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed inconsistent normals / lighting on lit grouped sprites.

#### PHYSICS ####

*  New: Added option to allow skeletal mesh simulation to NOT affect component transform.
 *  New: Added support for 'teleport' option when changing the Instanced Static Mesh transform.
 *  New: Allowed access to the Enable Gravity flags on individual bones within a Skeletal Mesh Component using Bone Name.
 *  New: Allowed 'show collision' console command to work in Test configurations.
 *  New: Brought back cone constraint visualization, but with some improvements like colors and free vs locked. Turned on constraint visualization when drawing a skeletal mesh with constraint show flags.
 *  New: Changed constraint warnings to now show up in Message Log to be more visible when testing.
 *  New: Introduced a default shape complexity project setting (Complex As Simple vs Simple As Complex vs Simple And Complex).
 *  New: Updated physics blend weights to now only affect rendering data.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash that could occur when the Phys Scene pointer was null (the world has no Physics Scene) in the Skeletal Mesh Component’s Term Articulated function. That could happen when loading a world without fully instantiating it, such as when right-clicking a world in the context browser rather than opening the world directly.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash when using very large simulation meshes for clothing - limits have been increased and it is no longer possible to import a simulation mesh that is too large.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash in sub-stepping by limiting skeletal mesh bodies to be in either the sync scene or the async scene, but not both. Simplifies a lot of code and improves performance.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed hit events on a skeletal mesh component not respecting the AND between a skeletal mesh component and the ragdoll bodies.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the case where physics hit events were passing the wrong component's bone info to the hit event.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed vehicle drag adding instead of removing energy when in reverse.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed "Add Impulse At Location" for destructible meshes not using the correct location.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed "Angular Rotation Offset" properly disabling when motion for axis is Free or Locked.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed bug with overlap queries against welded bodies.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed bug with physics body welding resulting in duplicate collision shapes.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed clothing association sometimes using stale references to sections.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed collision rendering in level editor when mesh was mirrored.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed destructible meshes always appearing to change when generating patches.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed "Max Angular Velocity" setting being reset unintentionally.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed memory churn during PhysX simulate calls by providing per-scene scratch space for the simulation to use.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the Paper Grouped Sprite not updating physics bodies.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed physics bodies of an Instanced Static Mesh Component not moving when the mesh is updated.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Physics Constraint Component not being editable on instances (only on defaults).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed race condition in clothing code if cloth is cleared between Pre and Post Physics Tick.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed rare contact pre-filter crash when invalid shapes were passed to pre-filter callbacks.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed warning about using CCD on kinematic bodies.
 *  Added more information when convex cooking partially succeeds (fails initially but succeeds with inflation) indicating the full path of the mesh that failed.
 *  Corrected Convex Hull 2D so that it returns an empty set of indices when passed an empty points array.
 *  Ensure that skeletal mesh components do NOT teleport unless explicitly asked to.
 *  Removed call to set a frame decay constant on destructible shapes in PhysX. This was used to better settle large piles but was slower to process. PhysX can now handle this better so it is no longer necessary.

#### PLATFORMS ####

*  New: Added a setting to make the game window preserve its content's aspect ratio while being resized by user. This is on by default.
 *  New: Added support for encrypting .ini files from the Project Settings and the Project Launcher.
 *  New: Added support for the Unreal Front End to launch to multiple devices at once.

 *  Bugfix: Resolved an issue where iOS Movie Player can't handle videos at resolutions that aren't multiples of 16.
    
     *  Movies that are not multiple of 16 will report a runtime error.
 *  Bugfix: Issue where a movie wasn’t played on iOS occasionally.

     *  Expose support for the optional Base Vertex Index & First Instance draw call arguments on newer iOS devices that support them as well as on Mac.
     *  Expose support for indirect draw and dispatch calls on newer iOS devices as well as on Mac.
 *  New: Implemented rudimentary runtime debugging of Metal RHI with several different levels of complexity controlled by the new console-variable "rhi.Metal.RuntimeDebugLevel".
    
     *  By default "rhi.Metal.RuntimeDebugLevel" is 0 (off) & it is compiled out for Shipping - when enabled each higher level collects more data or changes the Metal RHI behaviour to make a command-buffer failure mode debuggable at the expense of performance.
     *  In order for this to work the number of command-buffers that may be allocated from the command-queue is also controllable via a console-variable "rhi.Metal.CommandQueueSize" which must be set prior to startup.
 *  New: Initial AV Foundation implementation of Media Framework for Mac, iOS & tvOS.
    
     *  Supports playback of local movie files in .mp4, .mov & .m4v containers using the H.264 video format.
     *  When using Metal video frames are supplied directly as Metal textures without conversion.
     *  On Mac audio is played through the Media Audio Sink provided to the movie player but currently on iOS & tvOS audio will play through the speakers directly.
 *  New: The Metal shader compiler will now retain the text shader code when "r.Shaders.KeepDebugInfo" is enabled to allow for easier debugging.
    
     *  For Mac, shaders are still compiled to bytecode and the Mac runtime will load the bytecode, while debug tools will load the text shader from the system temporary directory.
     *  On iOS & tvOS the runtime will load the text shaders so that they appear in the debug tools.
 *  New: Added validation code to Metal RHI to ensure that we do not erroneously re-clear existing render contents when restoring the render command encoder to continue rendering.
    
     *  This will only be active when the Metal debug layer is enabled and is completely compiled away in Test & Shipping builds for performance.
 *  Bugfix: Crash fix when loading an empty sub-level on iOS projects using Metal by adding validation of resource bindings.
    
     *  Setting "rhi.Metal.RuntimeDebugLevel" to 1 or greater enables the resource binding validation.

 *  Bugfix: Crash fix when deallocating textures in Metal RHI by explicitly retaining and releasing the MTL Texture objects rather than making assumptions about whether they are the same object.
 *  Bugfix: Crash fixes for various GPU crashes when using Metal by explicitly zero-initialising variables and bounds-checking buffer access in Metal shaders.
    
     *  Added a shader compile option "r.Shaders.ZeroInitialise" that turns on explicit zero-initialisation of local and temporary variables in hlslcc for Metal
     *  Added a shader compile option "r.Shaders.BoundsChecking" flag to control whether shader platforms should manually enforce buffer access bounds - HLSL returns zero or ignores invalid reads & writes but Metal leaves the behaviour undefined and some drivers then fail.
 *  Bugfix: Playback of movies on Mac/iOS that had spaces in the filename.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a buffer overflow bug in Detour Tile Cache Builder when removing a vertex that could corrupt the heap on Mac.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a compilation error found by the newer version of clang in Xcode 8.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Unreal Build Tool and Unreal Automation Tool not finding Unreal Tournament icon on Mac.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed intermittent command-buffer failures in Metal by properly handling RHI Set Stream Source calls that override the stream stride.
 *  Bugfix: Updated Metal implementation to assert on unimplemented calls to RHI Clear UAV on a structured-buffer or texture rather than failing silently.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Metal occlusion queries not reporting command-buffer failures correctly.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Metal's internal buffer pool to ensure the CPU and GPU are not accessing a buffer at the same time by only returning a buffer to the pool upon completion of the last command-buffer that uses it.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed rendering of Atmospheric Fog on Metal without affecting other platforms with a minor change to the shader and by using the precise Metal intrinsics for floating point operations.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Screenshot and movie capture of gameplay on Mac when using Metal to render by inserting an intermediate render-target between the game and the back-buffer.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed shader compilation for Mac when Apple's 'metal' shader compiler is unavailable by compiling Metal shaders as text instead.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the command-line script used to get the number of parallel tasks to use when invoking builds with distcc from Unreal Frontend.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the tiled reflections pass on Nvidia GPUs using Metal by removing Max & Min LOD overrides from our calls to "set Sampler State" and “set Sampler States”.
 *  Flush writable file handles on close on Apple platforms to ensure that they reach the disk prior to program termination.
 *  Increased the number of input buses for Core Audio 3D Mixer to support 64 audio channels.
    
     *  Also, added a warning to Start Sources in Audio Device so it doesn't silently ignore sound source initialization failures.
 *  Reduced memory use in the Mac Editor when running on the Metal graphics API by caching a fallback depth-stencil surface used for canvas tile rendering.
 *  Reduced the number of temporary memory allocations required to set uniform parameters in Metal.
 *  Separated texture & buffer references during Metal shader compilation to ensure that buffers don't get assigned an inaccessible index.
 *  When archiving on for Mac, delete the dest icon if it exists before trying to call File.Move
 *  Change the Metal buffer pool used inside Metal RHI to better match Apple's internal memory management behaviour to avoid hidden performance problems.
 *  Disabled "r.DFShadowScatterTileCulling" as well as “r.AOScatterTileCulling” on Mac because we don't have the necessary RW textures on Metal in Mac OS X El Capitan.
 *  Disabled the Shader Cache by default on Mac to match other platforms as it was not designed to support the new RHI Thread & Parallel Execution features of Unreal Engine 4.
 *  Disambiguated Metal command-buffer failures by GPU vendor and error type and made failure fatal to avoid cases where attempting to continue causes a kernel panic.
 *  Enable global clip-plane support for Metal shader platforms. This enables support for Planar Reflection Actors.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when disconnecting controllers which only occurred if games have been built with Visual Studio 2015 Update 3.
 *  Bugfix: Eliminated a circular dependency on Xbox One target settings that could cause settings to not load in the editor.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed ESRAM issues that were causing some odd rendering at times (bloom would be super bright along the bottom of the screen). This fix is also a performance win in some cases.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where in some cases a game would not launch if a localized resource value (i.e. Project ID or Description) was not set.
    
     *  If these values are empty, a default value of "" will be used so that the project can run. A warning message will also be printed to the log. Make sure to set these values before shipping.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where builds could fail if more than one version of the XDK was installed side by side.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where composite fonts created before the release of hardware decompress support would not load correctly.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Product Id, Content Id, and Sandbox Id values were being read from the wrong INI when packaging.

     *  This issue affected large chunks where the OS reports 100% progress before the chunk completes downloading.
     *  Mounting now waits for the "Chunk Completed" event to be fired by the OS.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a memory leak of 3D textures.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with missing GPU particles when Fast Semantics was enabled.
    
     *  As a result, Fast Semantics is now the default RHI on the Xbox One for 4.13.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the reflection environment was appearing bright green on some maps.
 *  Moved the Xbox One platform settings into the default INI files so they are available to the PC tools and settable in the editor.
 *  Removed CPU/GPU sync when updating/unlocking textures.
 *  Deferred deletion of Xbox One D3D resources moved to happen once per real frame as there were circumstances in which it could be called more than once (rendering cube map faces, etc). As a result the latency of deletion has been reduced to two frames, saving memory.
 *  Dynamic vertex/index buffers use less memory when locking/unlocking. This is also a performance improvement in some cases.
 *  Improved processing of system events during load.
    
     *  This will allow a game to suspend earlier in the loading process.
 *  Large memory savings when locking/updating textures as we now only allocate a linear copy of the mip/array slice that is being locked, rather than the entire texture.
 *  Occlusion queries now use 8x less memory than in 4.12 by packing 8 queries into each 256 byte allocation.
 *  Optimized many calls in the Xbox One D3D11 state cache.
 *  Shaders now use less memory, as intermediate DXBC bytecode has been stripped away in all possible cases.
 *  Small stats optimization on Xbox One.
 *  Vastly optimized the D3D11 Uniform Buffer destructor as we don't need to consider dynamic buffers any more.
 *  Changed the Streaming Install implementation on Xbox One to not rely on the Find Chunk From File function.
    
     *  This avoids an issue with the Xbox One OS that will sometimes report the incorrect chunk index.

*  New: The UCRT and Visual Studio 2015 runtime can now be setup for app-local deployment.
    
     *  A configuration option called App Local Prerequisites Directory was added to the packaging settings in the editor.
     *  Files stored in this directory will be deployed side by side with the executable.
     *  DLLs staged this way will be available without requiring the runtimes to be conventionally installed.
     *  Redistributable versions of the UCRT and Visual Studio 2015 runtime files are now included with the engine.
     *  The runtimes have been structured to be compatible with app-local deployment in the directory Engine\\Binaries\\ThirdParty\\AppLocalDependencies.
 *  Bugfix: Changing the desktop resolution while a full screen title is minimized will cause the resolution of the title to change to match the new desktop resolution.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed Ctrl-C not killing child processes when running AutomationTool from the console.
 *  The value of the P4PORT variable is now found by querying Perforce, rather than just checking the environment variable. P4 on Windows stores these values in the registry.
 *  Changed Shipping configuration of UE4Game to use Shipping PhysX libraries on Windows.
 *  FRHITexture member TextureName should have a non empty name for most texture types (for easier debugging).

#### RENDERING ####

     *  This is required to convert a Static Mesh to a Procedural Mesh Component in-game.
 *  New: Added the GPU Shared Flag to render targets so they can be shared with other applications.
 *  New: Added Blueprint node (Export Render Target and Export Texture 2D) to export 2D render targets and textures as HDR images to the disk.
 *  New: Added Composite Mode to Scene Capture 2D, which can be used to additively accumulate or composite instead of the default overwrite behavior.
    
     *  Added "Capture On Movement" to Scene Capture, which can be disabled so the only source of scene capturing is a manual capture by calling Capture Scene.
 *  New: Added the Console command "r.DumpShaderDebugWorkerCommandLine" to generate a file when dumping shaders to be able to debug using the Shader Compiler Worker's -directcompile.
 *  New: Added support to be able to set a Canvas Render Target 2D NOT to clear to green whenever it's updated (so you can just draw pixels that have changed instead of always having to redraw everything).
 *  New: Capsule shadows are now supported in stereo (VR).
 *  New: Create Project Settings to optionally disable certain rendering features which cause extra shader permutations and extra shader compile time if they are not required for a given project.
    
     *  Can be found under Project Settings > Rendering Overrides (Local).
     *  If an attempt to use a disabled feature is made, a warning will be displayed.
 *  New: For use when doing automated screenshot verification, the new console command "r.ResetViewState" will reset some state (e.g. Temporal AA index). This allows for more deterministic tests.
 *  New: Added a new Blueprint function "Clear Render Target 2D", which is the only way to set a render target alpha directly.
 *  New: Added a new Blueprint function "Create Render Target 2D", which allows self-contained render-to-texture blueprints

 *  New: Stationary Mobility for primitive components is allowed again, with the meaning 'moves rarely'.
    
     *  Used for caching optimizations (cached shadowmaps).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when removing instances while lighting is building.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash caused by quitting OpenGL 4.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed a resource leak with decal rendering in D3D11 RHI.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where bounds were too large due to Scene Component sprites in Editor Builds.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed issues with Scene Capture components.
    
     *  Scene cube captures were not updating, leaving the render target unchanged.
     *  Scene capture components set to "Capture Every Frame" were only capturing every second frame.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where particles using Spherical Particle Opacity wouldn’t render.
    
     *  This now allows a smoother appearance when particles are intersecting geometry.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Static Mesh bounds were including simple collision bounds.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with `Refraction Depth Bias` material parameter.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where World-space camera position was not being exposed in decal pixel shaders.
    
     *  This also fixed decal lighting having missing specular and reflection.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where translucency was appearing in Stationary Light Overlap viewmode.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a Mesh Merge issue with merging mix of different extra bone influence with multiple sections.
 *  Refactoring of resident mip calculations:
    
     *  Cooker takes into account the same compression block thresholds that the runtime previously used.
     *  Runtime doesn't attempt to calculate which mips to perma-load, but just looks at the ones whose bulk data is flagged as end-of-file or separate-file.
 *  Removed "Update Actor Position".
    
     *  This was not needed in a vast majority of use cases and was causing a crash due to multithreading issues during end of frame updates.
 *  Removed vertex density viewmode.
 *  Shader compilation errors will now print the details of the error to the log by default.
 *  Shader compiler does a recreate render state even during blocking compile.
    
     *  This fixes saving a material giving different behavior from applying changes with global distance fields.
 *  Improved usability for DBuffer Decals.
    
     *  'Show Decals' works correctly, previously would fetch from uninitialized textures.
     *  DBuffer being enabled forces a full prepass, previously decals would render incorrectly unless correct settings of "r.EarlyZPass" were used.
     *  Materials using DBuffer blend modes will fail to compile when the DBuffer project setting is disabled, instead of just being invisible.
 *  Minor optimization of the Translucency lighting volume clear by moving it to Async Compute.
 *  Noise material node functions have been renamed to more accurately represent what they do, and all now have tooltips with performance and quality information.
 *  Renamed some cvars for consistency:
    
     *  "r.SkinCacheShaders" -> “r.SkinCache.CompileShaders”
     *  "r.SkinCaching" -> “r.SkinCache.Mode”
     *  "r.MaxGPUSkinCacheElementsPerFrame" -> “r.SkinCache.MaxGPUElementsPerFrame”
 *  Shader compile error logs are now unsuppressed - shows the cause for materials that fail to compile in cooks.

##### FX #####

*  New: Added "Opacity Source Mode" to Sub UV Animation, which is useful with textures created for additive particles.
 *  New: Added Particle Light Quality scalability setting since lower-end machines have trouble with particle lights.
    
     *  They are disabled on low and medium spec machines. HQ lights are only allowed on high-end machines.
 *  New: Beam emitters can now use particles as their source and target methods.
 *  New: GPU particle simulation can be separately frozen/unfrozen with "r.GPUParticle.Simulate".
 *  New: Particle emitters using vector fields can now be configured to use fix DT or variable DT for simulation.
    
     *  Other emitters only use variable DT.
     *  Fix DT allows for a more consistent particle behavior when running at different game speed (like slomo) and at different frame rates.
 *  New: The transforms of individual mesh particles are now available in materials via the "Transform Vector" and “Transform Position” nodes for advanced material effects on mesh particles.
 *  New: Quality level spawn rate scaling now works on GPU emitters.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash with a Sub UV Animation asset when texture source is cleared.

 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with visible pop of particles on collision.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where some FX would be spawned at the wrong LOD level when used with the pooling system.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where particle cutouts were not working with certain Sub UV Animation texture sizes and Sub UV dimension combinations.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed several issues with Particle Ribbons using sequential particle selection.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue preventing inherit rotation from working with mesh particles.
 *  Increased size of texture for curves on GPU particles.
    
     *  This prevents bugs when many GPU particle systems using curves are active.
 *  Particle Collisions can be ignored for systems not currently in view.
    
     *  Added a console variable to control how long these systems must be inactive for to have their collisions ignored.
     *  "fx.ParticleCollisionIgnoreInvisibleTime"
 *  Reduced tunneling/missed collisions with depth buffer collision.

##### LIGHTING #####

*  New: Added "r.Shadow.ForceSingleSampleShadowingFromStationary" for scalability.
 *  New: Added a per-object shadow setting for directional lights
    
     *  "r.Shadow.PerObjectDirectionalDepthBias" - which allows us to set a depth bias for per-object shadows independently of the CSM shadows.
 *  New: Added cvar "r.Fog" for scalability.
 *  New: Added "Lower Hemisphere Solid Color" to sky lights.
 *  New: Added "r.AOSpecularOcclusionMode", which determines how specular should be occluded by DFAO.
    
     *  0: Apply non-directional AO to specular.
     *  1: (default) Intersect the reflection cone with the unoccluded cone produced by DFAO. This gives more accurate occlusion than 0, but can bring out DFAO sampling artifacts.
 *  New: Fading out planar reflections based on roughness since they don't have support for variable roughness (fade starts at .2 roughness, ends at .3)
 *  New: Lights now have their own "Max Draw Distance" setting, along with a fade range to smoothly fade the light out.
    
     *  Brightness will approach 0 at max draw distance and fade to 100% within the specified fade range.
 *  New: Planar Reflection Improvements
    
     *  Added "Render Scene Two Sided" to planar reflections, which can be useful to limit leaking.
     *  Added "Show Only Actors" and “Hidden Actors” to Scene Capture Component for easy use without having to call BP functions.
     *  Added "Show Preview Plane" to Planar Reflection actors
     *  The view state is recreated on planar reflection edit, which resets the Temporal AA history, allowing instant previewing of changes
 *  New: Scaled sphere intersection for indirect capsule shadows.
    
     *  Fixes the discontinuity when capsule axis points close to the light direction.
 *  New: Skylight occlusion tint now applies to specular.
    
     *  Skylight occlusion tint on diffuse is now correctly affected by Diffuse Color.
 *  New: Spreading precomputed visibility to neighbors now uses a 2D grid to find neighbors.
    
     *  This speeds up the process for 800k cells from 40 mins to 20s.
 *  New: Volume lighting samples use adaptive sampling final gather.
    
     *  Increases their build time by 2x but improves quality in difficult cases (eg. small bright sources of bounce lighting).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash with threading related to level load with precomputed lighting volumes.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Capsule Shadows artifacting on Skeletal Meshes with scaling.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with HLOD and mesh LODs getting hit by Lightmass ray traces that didn't originate from a mesh.
    
     *  Volume lighting samples and precomputed visibility cells are now only placed on LOD0 (of both mesh LODs and HLOD).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue so that Lightmap density viewmode will now show the expected component's lightmap resolution when the precomputed lighting is not yet built.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Actors hidden in game still cast shadows and emit light in Lightmass, which was broken in 4.12.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where atmospheric fog was not working on translucency.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed issues with hair shading NaNs.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where light shapes were not showing up in reflection captures.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with NaNs resulting from 0 Roughness materials if the light’s "Min Roughness" was also set to 0.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Single Sample Shadow From Stationary Lights which had been broken from selective GBuffer outputs optimization.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a typo in tube lights that should no longer allow them to go negative.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed per object shadows from point/spot lights to do the light source pull back based on subject box size, not subject radius, since the box is used to find a valid < 90 degree projection.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed skylights so that they are not captured until their level is made visible.
    
     *  This fixes the case where skylights capture too early.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed height fog to now work properly in planar reflections.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed HLODs to now work with static and dynamic shadowing.
 *  Lighting channels can now be edited on components with static mobility, since dynamic lights can still affect them.
 *  Improved hair shading when lit by non shadow casting light.
 *  Improved screen space reflection quality.

##### MATERIALS #####

*  New: Added a purely computational Perlin-style noise to the Noise material node.
    
     *  Unlike texture-based noise, this one will never repeat.
 *  New: Added material property "Allow Negative Emissive Color” which is useful when rendering to an offscreen render target.
 *  New: New material functions available. These were incorrectly listed in the previous release but are available now.
    
     *  1D to 2D Index - Convert given input from 1d to 2d.
     *  1D to 3D Index - Convert given input from 1d to 3d.
     *  2D to 1D Index - Convert given input from 2d to 1d.
     *  3D to 1D Index - Convert given input from 3d to 1d.
     *  Contrast Preserve Color - Allows you to adjust the contrast of an image without adjusting the colors.
     *  Luminosity and Color - Allows you to separately specify the Luminosity and Color to create an output image.
     *  Landscape Manual UVW - A helper function to help map textures and height gradients to landscapes.
     *  Chroma Key Alpha - This is a green screen type node that extracts a mask based on the specified chroma color.
     *  Distance Limited Reflections - This returns parallax corrected reflections conformed to a sphere.
     *  Brick and Tile UVs - A useful function for creating pseudo random UVs for procedural texture creation.
     *  Texture Bombing - A material function that multi-samples a texture with random offsets to reduce tiling artifacts.
     *  Texture Bombing POM - An experimental function combining texture bombing with Parallax Occlusion Mapping. Note this function is extremely expensive.
 *  New: Added new console variables "r.Streaming.FullyLoadUsedTextures 1" to load all used textures to their max resolution.
    
     *  Used as an alternative to disabling texture streaming with "r.TextureStreaming 0".
     *  Takes less memory as only used texture get streamed in.
 *  New: Panner nodes now have an optional speed input.
 *  New: Support for setting Scalar and Vector Materials by Index rather than by name on MIDs.
    
     *  This feature allows much better performance in cases where large numbers of parameters are being set per frame and where the indices can be cached by the calling code in an initialization step.
 *  New: Textures have an Alpha Preservation property which dictates how much of a channel's coverage to preserve when generating mipmaps.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when passing a Vector4 to a "Transform Position" material node.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where Texture group and texture LOD Bias setting would be applied twice in cooked builds.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with texture streaming where Skeletal Meshes would understream textures.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an edge-case causing negative blend results on tri-planar mapping material function.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where "Invalid Lightmap Settings" display material for instanced meshes.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the Shader Complexity viewmode for materials using depth pixel offset.
    
     *  This could cause masked materials to appear cheaper than they actually are.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a typo on `If` material node inputs.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed various material compile errors of the form "Undeclared identifier LocalX" caused by interpolation optimization.
 *  Removed additional material node created when adding a "Rotate About Axis" node.

##### POSTPROCESSING #####

*  Bugfix: Fixed a regression (seen only in SM4) that could break the fixed shutter exposure.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with ghosting in the screen space reflections when temporal AA is disabled.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue with occasional flickering visual artifacts in the motion blur.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed post-processing not working correctly in case project Mobile HDR setting is off, on non-mobile platforms.

##### OPTIMIZATIONS #####

*  New: Added a 'resource' name for landscape to improve display in the mesh summary list of Profile GPU.
 *  New: Added a way to control how far down the HLOD hierarchy to allow showing (can be used to limit quality loss and streaming texture memory usage on high scalability settings).
    
     *  Controlled by the new cvar "r.HLOD.MaximumLevel", which can be set to the following values:
        
         *  \-1: No maximum level (default)
         *  0: Prevent ever showing a HLOD cluster instead of individual meshes
         *  1: Allow only the first level of HLOD clusters to be shown
         *  2+: Allow up to the Nth level of HLOD clusters to be shown
     *  Note: This does not affect the memory used by the HLOD meshes itself or their always loaded low mip levels, it will only save the memory associated with streaming in the higher mip levels.
 *  New: Added triangle and draw call summaries to Profile GPU output, broken up by asset and material.
    
     *  This is controlled by "r.ProfileGPU.PrintAssetSummary", which defaults to 1, but you really need “r.ShowMaterialDrawEvents 1” enabled as well for a complete picture.
     *  It can also output a summary line for specific asset names using a comma separated list in "r.ProfileGPU.AssetSummaryCallOuts" (e.g., "LOD,HeroName").
 *  New: Moved Texture streaming computations for dynamic primitives on the worker thread.
 *  New: Realtime GPU profiler - preview feature (not yet enabled by default).
    
     *  A non-hierarchical, realtime, high level GPU profiler with support for cumulative stat recording. Requires a build with stats enabled (e.g. development).
     *  To enable, use "r.gpustatsenabled 1".
     *  Stats are visualized with "stat GPU".
     *  Additional stat can be added with SCOPED\_GPU\_STAT macros, e.g. SCOPED\_GPU\_STAT(RHICmdList, Stat\_GPU\_Distortion).
 *  New: Reduced memory allocations when creating sections in a Procedural Mesh Component.
 *  New: Simple forward shading path for scaling down to low end PC.
    
     *  Support for a directional light in the base pass, which can be shadowed either by distance field shadowmaps or a single shadow factor from the Indirect Lighting Cache.
     *  Binding and outputting to GBuffers is disabled when using simple forward shading, along with dependencies of the GBuffers.
     *  Specular, normal maps and the 3rd SH band of skylighting are all hardcoded off. Materials are forced fully rough.
     *  Enabled with "r.SimpleForwardShading 1", which can be changed at runtime.
     *  Added "r.SupportSimpleForwardShading", which determines if the necessary shaders are compiled.
     *  Removed "r.SimpleDynamicLighting", whose functionality (unshadowed directional light in the base pass) is a subset of simple forward shading, and was unused.
 *  Added "FreezeRendering" to the console autocomplete list.
 *  Added "ProfileGPU" to the console autocomplete list.
 *  Corrected a misleading help comment on "r.StaticMeshLODDistanceScale", explaining how it affects LOD calculations (it multiplies the effective distance, so larger numbers make transitions happen sooner).
 *  Updated to d3dcompiler\_47.dll offering large speed-up in shader compilation times.

##### MOBILE RENDERING #####

*  New: Added support for lighting channels on mobile.
    
     *  Multiple directional lights are supported in different channels but primitives are only affected by the directional light in the first channel they have set.
     *  CSM shadows from stationary or movable directional lights correctly follow their lighting channels.
     *  No channel limitations for dynamic point lights.
 *  New: Enabled quality level overrides for iOS Metal, Android ES3.1 and Android Vulkan shader platforms.
 *  New: Renamed "ANDROIDES31" and “OpenGLES31” to “ANDROIDESDEFERRED” and “OpenGLESDeferred” to avoid confusion with mobile renderer supporting ES3.1.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue in which changing mobile preview device type in editor would not rebuild materials.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that could cause changes to quality overrides in the 'High' quality column to be ignored.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed "black dots" rendering corruption that may appear on particles with additive blending.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed decals not rendering on Zenfone 2 (Added proper detection of FP16 render target support).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed inverted R/B color channels with "r.TonemapperFilm" enabled on Nexus 5 (Android 4.4.4).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed performance regression introduced in 4.10. Compute pixel world position in vertex shader instead of doing it in pixel shader.
 *  Mobile DoF now requires DoF type to be Gaussian otherwise DoF will be disabled.

#### UI ####

*  Bugfix: Fixed a regression that broke safe zone debugging features in Windows.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue in a Slate List Panel so that those with horizontal arrangement (i.e. from Slate Tile View) use the number of desired items instead of the number of actual items in order to calculate the desired size of the geometry.
    
     *  This fixes the case where a Slate Tile View is contained within a Slate Scroll Box; the Slate Tile View is now allowed to expand to its full size within the Slate Scroll Box.
 *  All textures in the UI texture group (TextureGroup\_UI), should now render a lot smoother if they have mipmaps. Removed code that was forcing all UI textures to mip level 0. If this behavior was desired by anyone, you can use the cvar "r.ForceHighestMipOnUITextures" to re-enable it.
 *  Sound Concurrency asset now has a unique icon.

##### SLATE #####

*  New: Added input settings:
    
     *  Control if the viewport locks the mouse on acquire capture.
     *  Control if the viewport acquires capture on the application launch (first window activate).
 *  New: Slate Remote Server (for the iOS touch input app) is now disabled by default, so we do not open up the socket unless desired by the user.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash if a Slate widget tried to refresh itself while the editor is shutting down.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash that could happen when the fallback/last resort font was missing.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a potential crash when shutting down Slate if the font services were shut down first.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed regression in editable text box alignment.
    
     *  Text was no longer vertically aligned center since editable text was converted to use a text layout. This vertical alignment is now handled by the outer editable text box instead.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the Scroll Box widget improperly clamping by content size.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed some measuring issues with bi-directional text within a right-flowed document.
    
     *  This could cause text to sometimes significantly under-measure and lead to wrapping issues.
 *  Significant performance improvements when pasting a large amount of text.
 *  Made sure the slide handle of a Slider Widget no longer gets cut off at the edges of the slider.
 *  Slider widget will no longer consume OnKeyDown events that they do not handle.
 *  Updated ScrollBy function on ScrollBox widget to work properly when called while the widget is animating.

##### UMG #####

*  New: Added ability to replace the widget the track is currently bound to. Also includes changes in Widget Blueprint Editor to send delegate to Animation Tab Summoner when switching from Graph to Designer.
 *  New: Adding ability to animate the root (owner) widget in UMG.
    
     *  Hierarchy Root adds the preview widget instead of the CDO to selected objects in widget blueprint. The properties are then migrated back to the CDO.
 *  New: Added additional styling options for the default items that are created in the combobox, such as Font.
 *  New: Updated playback speed so that it can now be specified when starting a UMG animation.
 *  New: Updated the Palette in UMG to no longer display widget content coming from Engine or Developer folders, based on the same setting configured in the content browser. If you're not showing Engine content in the Content Browser, you should no longer see all the User Widgets that were added to support the VR Editor.
 *  New: Updated the Widget Component to extend from the Mesh Component. It can now have a custom material applied to it in order to achieve cooler effects - like ignoring the depth buffer.
    
     *  Users who use this option are encouraged to start with the widget components default material and work from there, as you need to start by sampling a texture parameter called Slate UI.
     *  The widget component now offers the ability to automatically size the render target to be the desired size of the widget - note that this could go really bad if your widget's desired size is very large.
 *  New: Added a new Slate Texture Atlas Interface that any UObject can now implement if it wishes to integrate with UMG to provide texture atlas data in a form Slate can understand and render.
    
     *  For reference you can look at "Paper Sprite" which implements this interface allowing Paper 2D Sprites to be used on Slate Brushes.
 *  New: Added "Get Url" method and “On Url Changed” property to the Web Browser widget.
 *  New: Added meta flags for "Determines Output Type" and “Dynamic Output Param” to “Get All Widgets Of Class” in the Widget Blueprint Library, removing the need for the extra cast.
    
     *  The output pin now becomes the same as the type requested.
 *  New: Worked on better support for VR interactions with Slate widgets by introducing the Widget Interaction Component and performance improvements to the Widget Component.
    
     *  Direct mouse interaction with World Space widgets in the virtual world is no longer supported. Those kinds of interactions must all use the Widget Interaction Component now.
     *  Performance improvements - the viewport no longer arranges all 3D widgets every frame.
     *  Widget Components now support several methods for reducing how often they redraw to help control performance, they also support manual refresh. This automatically works in tandem with the widget interaction component to request refresh whenever the widget interaction component is interacting with the widget, thus giving you a simple way to only redraw widgets that the user is hovering over them.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash when using "Use Selected asset from Content Browser" for font materials when the selected asset is not a material.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed animation playback not playing the full length if it starts on a negative time.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bug where magenta-color text added to a Widget Blueprint would turn gray when the blueprint was compiled.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Widget Component to render widget in the correct position when Constrain Aspect Ratio is enabled.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bug where audio track from UMG doesn't play correctly in PIE.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed "Is Hovered" on “User Widgets”. The Object Widget did not properly call the super for Mouse Enter/Mouse Leave preventing the Widget's implementation from setting the correct state.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the "Designer Rebuild" flag detection so that we can just refresh the slate widget without recreating the preview UObject, which causes the destruction of the details panel, and the slate widget recreation was the only part that was required.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where the web browser widget plugin wasn't loading soon enough to be properly loaded in time if it was referenced by game content that loads in the Default stage of the pipeline, so moving it to PreDefault.
 *  Set viewed animation to current animation after switching from Graph to Designer (This is for "No Animation Selected" showing up when switching).
 *  Removed the "Designer Widget Tree", instead directly injecting the widget tree into the partially constructed User Widget during design time, when refreshing the preview.
    
     *  This avoids updating the living class instance with a new designer tree that all new instances of the class would become biased to using.
     *  Making the preview widget explicitly non-transactional as there's no reason to track changes to the preview, all the changes that need to be tracked should be on the template widget. This should fix the crash in the widget designer when you undo just after compiling the widget blueprint.
 *  Changed the Input Key Selector Widget to no longer add a bogus Selected Key property to the details panel.
 *  Updated the Slider widget to now allow the thumbsticks to also control movement of the slider when it's in edit mode, via controller input.
 *  Widgets transferred from one Widget Blueprint to another Widget Blueprint will now allow both to render and compile correctly.

#### VR ####

*  New: Added a "Start in VR" project setting, which will force a project to try and start in VR mode, regardless of whether or not it has -vr specified on the commandline.
 *  New: Added additional Motion Controller types, to allow for extension to devices that have more than just left and right trackers.
 *  New: Added GoogleVR (Cardboard) support for iOS, updated SDK.
 *  New: Added in "Get HMD Device Name" function to the HMD function library, which allows you to identify which plugin (e.g. Oculus Rift, SteamVR, PSVR) is currently active.
 *  New: Added Oculus 1.6 runtime support.
 *  New: Added fix for flickering shadows on translucent surfaces in VR.
 *  New: Updated haptics system so that it can now take a buffer of values to playback asynchronously on devices.
 *  New: Added PlayStation VR '2DVR' reprojection mode.
    
     *  2DVR is a way to display a static image on a quad temporarily while in VR output mode. Intended for loading screens, etc.
     *  Exposed to blueprint through Morpheus Function Library.
 *  New: Implemented HMD Setup dialogs for PlayStation VR at startup and if the HMD is disconnected at runtime.
 *  New: Exposed PlayStation VR "Hmd Reprojection Set Output Min Color" function to blueprint.
    
     *  Sets the minimum output color from reprojection processing. Can be used to mitigate certain vr artifacts (including dark smearing and rendered area edge visibility).
     *  Note: Tone Mapping and Color Correction can achieve some of the same effects, but are cross-platform.
 *  New: Added Steam VR Stereo Layer Support.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash when running with an HMD with no microphone.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a crash with the Steam Controller plugin enabled where applying a dynamic force feedback to the controller could crash the editor.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash when polling for position and orientation of an HMD from animation skel controls.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash with Gear VR when transitioning levels with an active HUD.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed bloom artifacts when changing screen percentage in VR.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed module loading race condition in Steam VR plugin.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed assert on Google Daydream soon after startup (likely related to heat-induced throttling).
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Motion Controllers on remote clients using data from attached motion controllers. Can now replicate motion controllers across the network without having local devices interfere.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed outstanding issues with OSVR rendering performance and stereo convergence in the headset.
 *  Prevented the output log from being spammed for every single shader compile when instanced stereo is enabled for a shader platform that doesn't support it.
 *  Updated Steam VR detection code to now use a lighter weight function, which will not launch Steam VR unless it is chosen as the active platform.

##### PROGRAMMING RELEASE NOTES #####

##### AI #####

 *  Bugfix: Fixed a compiler warning in FBlueprintVarActionDetails::GetVariableReplicationType where a local variable was hiding a member variable.
 *  Deprecated FName UEdGraphNode::GetPaletteIcon(FLinearColor&) in favor of FSlateIcon UEdGraphNode::GetIconAndTint(FLinearColor&) to allow for icons in external style sets to be used.
 *  UInheritableComponentHandler::GetAllTemplates() is now exposed as a callable API outside of the editor context.

##### CORE #####

*  New: Added FMath::ClosestPointOnInfiniteLine() to distinguish it from the (poorly named) ClosestPointOnLine() that actually works on segments.
 *  New: Added a CopyTemp function for making a temporary as a copy (instead of a move) of an object to aid visibility of unintended copies of setter functions defined only as taking an rvalue reference.
 *  New: Added a DEPRECATED\_MACRO deprecation macro for deprecating macros.
 *  New: Added a new LerpRange function to allow interpolation of FRotator without taking the shortest path.
 *  New: Added Algo::Copy and Algo::Transform.
 *  New: Added C++11 initializer list support to TArray and TSet.
 *  New: Added Core/Containers/TArrayView based on Engine/FixedSizeArrayView.
    
     *  TArrayView allows a function to accept a range of elements as if it was taking a TArray, while allowing the caller to pass any of:
        
         *  TArray (with any allocator)
         *  C Array
         *  Pointer + Size
         *  Initializer list!
     *  Note: The new and improved TArrayView is not const-propogating. const TArrayView does not imply "const T" and will not bind to a const TArray!
        
         *  You want TArrayView as the parameter in 99% of functions that would currently take a const TArray&. Note: TArrayView should be a value parameter, not a reference.
 *  New: Added FastDecimalFormat overloads to write into an existing string.
    
     *  This helps avoid an extra allocation if you already have a pre-sized string that you're writing the number to (as is the case in FText::Format).
 *  New: Added Find and FindByPredicate algorithms for operating on arbitrary ranges.
 *  New: Added LexicalConversion::ToString overloads for const CharType\* and bool.
 *  New: Added move semantics support to TArray::HeapPush.
 *  New: Added some extra logging information when a class fails to hot reload.
 *  New: Added static version of FName::IsValidXName.
    
     *  This allows you to verify name-like strings without having to convert them to an FName (and thus add them to the name table)
 *  New: Added TArray::EmplaceAt for direct construction of array elements at a given index.
 *  New: Added TWeakObjectPtrMapKeyFuncs as the KeyFuncs for TMaps which use TWeakObjectPtr as a key, so that the map is not invalidated when the pointer becomes stale.
 *  New: Added Visual Studio debugger visualization of TTuples of up to 6 elements.
 *  New: All configuration files are now scanned for an Engine section containing TaggedPropertyRedirects. This allows plugin configurations to register their own property redirects in cases where a property's name changes. Please note that this engine section will ONLY be searched for TaggedPropertyRedirects, and no other options are currently inspected for non-Engine configuration files.
 *  New: Async Loading will no longer wait for all packages to finish serializing before calling PostLoad on packages that have already been serialized.
 *  New: Errors are now raised when a UnrealHeaderTool markup is in a skipped preprocessor block.
 *  New: Exposed the Key and Value typedefs for TMap and TSet.
 *  New: FModuleManager::UnloadOrAbandonModuleWithCallback's 'abandon only' functionality has been split into its own function.
 *  New: Garbage Collector will no longer be responsible for generating class token stream. Instead the token stream will be generated on startup or when a (Blueprint) class has finished loading.
 *  New: Made check() calls assume the condition is true even in !DO\_CHECK builds.
 *  New: Made FFeedbackContext's Errors and Warnings list thread safe.
 *  New: Made the TAnd, TAndValue, TOr and TOrValue metafunctions variadic.
 *  New: Prevented FStrings being concatenated with integers, as this would concatenate a Unicode character of the value of that integer, rather than the expected decimal string representation of that integer.
 *  New: Removed obsolete PLATFORM\_COMPILER\_HAS\_EXPLICIT\_OPERATORS, FORCEINLINE\_EXPLICIT\_OPERATOR\_BOOL and SAFE\_BOOL\_OPERATORS macros.
 *  New: Split inline shader registration from serialization. Serialization can happen on the async loading thread but registration should only happen on the game thread. Removed a lot of critical section locks.
 *  New: UEngine now defines a Start() function that subclasses can use to start game related things after initialization of the engine.
    
     *  This is done so that after the Init() call on UEngine, we can then perform a module load for the ELoadingPhase::PostEngineInit phase of loading, then inform the UEngine that it's time to start the game.
     *  UGameEngine now uses the Start() phase to tell the GameInstance to Start, rather than at the base of Init(), before all modules have had a chance to load.
 *  New: Unified output formatting across FOutputDeviceFile, FOutputDeviceMemory and FOutputDeviceArchiveWrapper and fixed potential race conditions caused by serializing log lines in chunks.
 *  New: UStruct::SerializeTaggedProperties has been restructured to use new virtual UProperty::ConvertFromType for backwards compatibility type conversions.
 *  New: Added ForceInline to TIndexedContainerIterator<...>::operator!=(...).
    
     *  This change improved DebugGame performance of a for loop using ranged-based syntax significantly.
 *  New: Added an assert to PackageTools::GetFilteredPackageList to help track down a bad object.
 *  Bugfix: Crash fix for intermittent issue that does not delete linkers during FFeedbackContext::ProgressReported().
 *  Bugfix: Fix hang in FTaskGraphInterface::BroadcastSlow\_OnlyUseForSpecialPurposes caused by back to back calls.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a hash conflict that could occur when both the case-sensitive and case-insensitive FName hashes were identical.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a long-standing issue with undo/redo nulling lazy pointers.
    
     *  This particularly affected Landscape.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed comparisons of UnrealHeaderTool manifests which may affect UHT makefile correctness.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed const correctness in UObject\* overload of IPropertyHandle::SetValue.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed const correctness of FLogCategoryBase::IsSuppressed.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed hot reload on Mac when there are no changes.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed many Visual Studio static analysis warnings.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed some hot reload output which was being reported as warnings.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the parsing of non-ISO8601 datetimes in JSON.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed UnrealHeaderTool generating the wrong properties for int and unsigned int when the build environment's int sizes differ from the the target environment.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed 'unreferenced local variable' warnings used in UE\_CLOG macros when logging is disabled.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed three bugs required for script support to work properly.
 *  Added a non-const version of MultiFindPointer() to TMultiMap.
 *  Added a proper forwarding constructor to FAsyncTask to allow references to be passed.
 *  Clarified some wording in TFunction assert messages and comments.
 *  FAsyncPackage now creates the meta-data before processing the remaining exports
    
     *  This matches the behavior of FLinkerLoad::LoadAllObjects, as other objects may depend on the meta-data being loaded before them.
 *  Improved Algo::Accumulate when used with movable types (e.g. FString).
 *  Made GetDefault(UClass\*) assert that the class is castable to T. Otherwise it is an unsafe cast.
 *  Made sure async loading is not marked as complete until all async packages have been deleted.
 *  Made sure SQLLite database handle is nulled after it's been closed.
 *  Optimized some FString and FPaths functions to produce fewer temporary strings.
 *  Prevented the possibility of move constructors and move assignment operators being defined in UCLASSes.
 *  Removed a developer-only check in STATS which was generating lots of redundant strings.
 *  Removed obsolete macro-based delegate implementation.
 *  Removed PLATFORM\_COMPILER\_HAS\_VARIADIC\_TEMPLATES.
 *  Replaced some check()s with checkSlow()s in the container allocators.
 *  Reversed the order the UObject delete listeners were notified of UObject deletion to avoid skipping the next listener if the current one removed itself from the array.
 *  Split up TTypeTraits into multiple individual traits to avoid erroneous VS2015 compiler errors and for composability.
 *  Stomp allocator can now be used in the editor builds. At least in smaller projects.
 *  Stopped FError::Throwf from being usable outside of UnrealHeaderTool.
 *  Suspending or resuming thread heartbeat will not generate a heartbeat for threads that haven't sent any heartbeats yet.
 *  When using FFeedbackContextAnsi messages logged with Display verbosity will no longer be added to the Warnings array.
 *  Worked around some spurious VS2015 compiler errors in defaulted and deleted class functions.

##### EDITOR AND TOOLS #####

*  New: Added FAssetData::GetTagValue and FAssetData::GetTagValueRef to handle getting asset tag values in a type-correct way.
    
     *  This allows type-conversion using LexicalConversion, and also has specializations for FString, FText, and FName.
 *  New: Added LANDSCAPE\_API to Landscape MaterialExpression classes so user-created modules can make use of them.
 *  New: Allowed whitespaces for meta class names. Ex: UPROPERTY(meta = (AllowedClasses = "Texture2D, MaterialInterface")) will now show both Texture2D and MaterialInterface types.
 *  New: Removed the default "Toggle Pause/Play" command keybinding from BaseInput.ini and made this a customizable keybinding option in the "Editor Preferences".
 *  New: UBT on windows will now look for existence of a "UE4CSharp.prog" file next to a C\# program project, that would like to be added to the UE4.sln.
 *  Changed function signature for FSequencer::NotifyMovieSceneDataChanged so that it takes an enum describing the type of change.
 *  World Outliner now correctly calls ProcessEditDelete on editor modes that have asked to process delete operations

###### LANDSCAPE ######

*  Bugfix: Fixed Landscape class hierarchy.
    
     *  LandscapeProxy is now LandscapeStreamingProxy.
     *  A new base class has been added for both Landscape and LandscapeStreamingProxy (called LandscapeProxy).
     *  Most code shouldn't notice the change.

##### GAMEPLAY FRAMEWORK #####

*  New: Added a GetEffectiveFrameRateLimit method to UGameUserSettings, to allow games to override the default behavior for things like a different limit in menus versus gameplay.
 *  New: Added GetSquaredDistanceToBody to FBodyInstance and virtual GetSquaredDistanceToCollision to UPrimitiveComponent.
 *  New: Added minor support to data tables to support game-specific post-import fixup of data
    
     *  Added ability to mark variables in data table row structs with the meta field DataTableImportOptional, which implies the variable is not necessarily expected to be in the imported source file as a column (warnings won't be generated on import). Useful for variables that will only be populated by a post-import step in code.
     *  Added a new method, OnPostDataImport, to FTableRowBase to allow games to provide custom parsing, fix-up, etc. of data imported into data tables.
     *  Fixed the data table importer dialog to show data table row structs alphabetically.
 *  New: Added support for UNumericProperty (int64, etc...) and doubles as allowable types in data table structures.
    
     *  Note: Blueprints still can't access these types, so use is limited to C++ for now.
 *  New: Added time spent in each hitch bucket to the FPS chart .log output and analytics output.
 *  New: AHUD::WhiteColor, GreenColor, and RedColor have been made static const and deprecated. Use FColor::White, Green, and Red instead.
 *  New: Made CalcSceneView and GetProjectionData in ULocalPlayer virtual.
 *  New: Marked engine performance target cvars ECVF\_Scalability so they can be adjusted via scalability buckets at runtime for games that target different framerates on different levels of hardware.
 *  New: Scalability buckets can now have more or fewer than 4 entries, controlled by sg.\[BucketName\].NumLevels cvars.
 *  New: SceneComponent AttachChildren, AttachParent, AttachSocketName are now private. Use GetAttachChildren/Parent/SocketName, AttachTo, or SetupAttachment as appropriate.
 *  New: UActorComponent::GetWorld() marked final and inlined to optimize overhead.
 *  New: Until now the only type used for attributes in the gameplay ability system has been floats. A new type, FGameplayAttributeData, has been added. At some point in the future, support for float based attributes will probably be removed. At that point only attributes using the FGameplayAttributeData struct or a struct derived from it will be valid attributes. Until then it is possible for projects to have both FGameplayAttributeData and float based attributes.
 *  New: Added comment to FHitResult for ImpactPoint to explain behavior when it's penetrating.
 *  New: Added nullptr checks to ProceduralMeshComponent's SceneProxy.
 *  New: Added perf stat for SetHitResultFromShapeAndFaceIndex().
 *  New: GetNetMode() optimizations.
    
     *  Added IsNetMode() which is more efficient in non-editor builds when considering dedicated servers.
     *  Wrapped in inline functions that check IsDedicatedServer() where possible.
     *  Converted some components to use new methods.
 *  New: AHUD::bShowHUD now defaults to true
 *  New: Minor optimization in UGameplayTagsManager::FindTagNode() to stop taking copies of a tags children array and churning memory.
 *  Bugfix: Crash fix when calling FAudioDevice::CreateComponent as part of shut down.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash when ShouldSpawnAtStartPoint returns true if Player->StartSpot is null.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed issue that could cause the data table reimporter to change the reimported table back to a base Data Table class instance instead of the previously imported subclass, in the event of using subclasses of Data Table.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed optimization to IsLocalController() using wrong platform define.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed overlaps being dropped from within a FScopedMoveUpdate when rotation occurs. Removed invalid assert.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Net relevant WorldSettings objects so they no longer inadvertently end up in the Actors array twice.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed seamless travel so that if it chooses not to carry a GameMode over, it will now correctly create a new one.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed the UEngine::GetAllLocalPlayerControllers function to no longer add null entries to the output PlayerList array, which was possible in some rare cases before.
 *  Changed the code in AActor::IncrementalRegisterComponents to obey bAutoRegister for the root component rather than asserting that it is true. Note: If children components have bAutoRegister=true, they will still pull the root component into the fray and cause it to be registered first.
 *  Converted TAutoConsoleVariables in CharacterMovementComponent to FAutoConsoleVariableRefs in (renamed) CharacterMovementCVars namespace.
    
     *  Avoids need for GetValueOnGameThread() which was adding unnecessary overhead and preventing some users from easily multithreading portions of the code.
 *  Disabled concurrent tick queuing in Windows.
 *  Embedded FPS chart preamble/postamble/row .html files into ChartCreation.cpp to permanently solve packaging woes.
 *  FTickableGameObjects will no longer tick multiple times when multiple worlds are ticking, such as having a BP preview world, a persona world, or multiple PIE instances.
 *  Made FSavedMove\_Character::CanCombineWith easier to debug. Consolidated duplicate code to one block.
 *  Marked FHitResult, FOverlapResult, FOverlapInfo as POD types. Avoids destructors etc when in TArrays.
 *  Optimized UCapsuleComponent::CalcBounds() to remove sqrt and use tighter bounding sphere radius.
 *  Optimized AudioComponent to set bUseAttachParentBounds=true to reduce cost of transform updates (avoids virtual CalcBounds() when transform changes).
 *  Optimized character networking to remove allocations after initial spawn from client saved move processing.
 *  Prevented ACharacter::bNotifyJumpApex from being editable and cleaned up comments.
 *  Reduced allocations during movement and overlap queries and when fetching shapes from physx actors.
 *  Reduced allocations in UI Canvas items.
 *  Reduced allocations in UObjectBase::CreateStatID(). It throws off profiling results significantly in some cases.
 *  Worked around some of the drawbacks of Windows scheduler. This would occasionally cause hitches on quad core machines with additional load in the tick task manager.
 *  Wrapped call from UCharacterMovementComponent::PostPhysicsTickComponent() to UpdateBasedMovement() in a FScopedMovementUpdate to accumulate moves with better perf.

##### LOCALIZATION #####

*  New: Added the ability to version each localized string individually when loaded into the localization manager.
    
     *  The single 32-bit global history has now been replaced with two 16-bit histories. One is global, and is updated whenever the culture is changed (or a LocRes file is loaded), and the other is local to each string, and is updated if the display string is changed outside of a culture update (to handle cases where the display string is changed, but the key is preserved). Changing the global history will reset all local histories.
 *  Renamed FContext to FManifestContext to better reflect its purpose and avoid naming conflicts with other code.

##### NETWORKING #####

*  New: Added support for prioritizing actors for replay recording. This feature can be used along with the per-frame recording time limit (see UDemoNetDriver::SetMaxDesiredRecordTimeMS) to improve playback quality for the important actors in the scene.
    
     *  This feature is enabled by calling UDemoNetDriver::SetActorPrioritizationEnabled on the recording UDemoNetDriver.
     *  If desired, customize the priority of actors by overriding the AActor::GetReplayPriority function. This works similarly to the AActor::GetNetPriority function for non-replay replication.
     *  You may also override the viewer used for the priority calculation with the UDemoNetDriver::SetViewerOverride function.
 *  New: Added the ability to limit the size of the buffer used by the in-memory replay streamer (FInMemoryNetworkReplayStreamer).
    
     *  This will prevent the memory buffer that stores the replay data from growing unbounded over the course of a game. Only the most recent data will be kept, so it won't be possible to play back the replay from an earlier time that's no longer in the buffer.
     *  To set the buffer size, call INetworkReplayStreamer::SetTimeBufferHintSeconds on an instance of FInMemoryNetworkReplayStreamer. The implementation will keep at least the most recent desired number of seconds available for playback.
 *  New: Added the ability to pause and resume replay recording, and get the current paused state. See UDemoNetDriver::PauseRecording and UDemoNetDriver::IsRecordingPaused.
 *  New: Added the ability to set a desired per-frame time limit for recording replays. The time is not guaranteed, but setting it can help reduce the CPU load of replay recording in exchange for potentially lower quality playback.
    
     *  After the time limit is hit, additional actors that would have been recorded on the current frame will be deferred until a future frame. Since these actors are being recorded at a lower frequency, this may cause a reduction in playback quality.
     *  To set the desired per-frame time limit, call UDemoNetDriver::SetMaxDesiredRecordTimeMS on the recording UDemoNetDriver.
     *  This feature may be combined with replay actor prioritization (see UDemoNetDriver::SetActorPrioritizationEnabled) to record important actors at a higher frequency and maintain more playback quality.
 *  New: Updated the FUniqueNetId of a connecting client to be passed along in the client beacons so the server can tell who is making requests.
 *  New: Added ENGINE\_API to FRepMovement, as the constructor is in a source file.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue that could cause arrays to get out of sync with the game server when using a FFastArraySerializer with predictive elements and recording a replay on the client.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where network profiles after the first one created during an execution of the engine would have broken name and address mappings.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed issue wherein replicated actors destroyed on the server would not always be properly destroyed on the client when used in conjunction with network dormancy and queued bunches.
 *  Any actors that are set not to load on the client (bNetLoadOnClient = false) will be force deleted when initializing a level’s actors on a client.
 *  Fixed misspelling in comment in NetworkVersion.h.
 *  Corrected filename case in \#include "IPAddress.h" statement.

##### ONLINE #####

*  New: FQosInterface::GetDefaultRegionString() has been replaced by FQosInterface::GetRegionId(). It is just a rename of the function
 *  New: FUniqueNetIdRepl is stored on the UNetConnection and passed into engine login functions rather than TSharedPtr as it is a more robust wrapper of the same data.
 *  New: Added a base class UpdateManager that can coordinate patch and hotfix checks inside a game. Taking advantage of the OnlineHotfixManager class can help setup a basic infrastructure for using that class to check for hotfixes while the game is running.
 *  New: Added an Expiration Date field to FOnlineStoreOffer. This field defaults to Unreal Max Time.
 *  New: Added the capability for actors to temporarily pause replication of themselves over a certain channel. This can significantly reduce bandwidth costs and reduce cheating. ShooterGame has implemented an example - look for AShooterCharacter::IsReplicationPausedForConnection and AShooterCharacter::OnReplicationPausedChanged.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed issues with FSocketBSD::Recv returning false on SE\_EWOULDBLOCK when polling a non-blocking socket.
 *  FSocketBSD::Recv, RecvFrom and the IPv6 equivalents will now return false when recv returns 0, which indicates the connection was shutdown in an orderly manner.

##### OTHER #####

*  New: Added Framework zip paths to list of required external files when precompiling targets.
 *  New: Added support for per file Intellisense PCH settings, which greatly improves its startup speed.
    
     *  Set bUsePerFileIntellisense to true to activate, which can be done through your local BuildConfiguration.xml file.
     *  This has been seen to use a lot more memory and even cause crashes in large Visual Studio solutions. Only supported after VS2015 Update 3.
 *  New: Added TArray support to FAnalyticsEventAttribute.
 *  New: Made a first pass at async loading improvements. Mostly disabled.
 *  New: Removed hard coded staging of dlls for Crash Reporter and use its receipt instead.
 *  New: Added validation of tag names to FindOrAddTagSet so that they only contain a single '\#' character and any spaces come after.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue in ability system where gameplay effect handles would be improperly invalidated whenever a sublevel was loaded.
 *  Ensured that TempStorageFileList uses forward slashes as its path separators so that it's easily used on Mac and Windows.
 *  Improved the CPU burden of loading in several places. Made substantial progress on the complete loading revamp (currently disabled).
 *  Removed EnterScope and LeaveScope from ReadGraphBody so that included files are treated as being in the same scope (allows use of properties across files).

##### PAPER2D #####

*  New: Added PAPER2D\_API to FSpriteDrawCallRecord so it can be used externally.

##### PHYSICS #####

*  New: Exported ConvertToCollisionChannel, ConvertToObjectType and ConvertToTraceType members of UCollisionProfile.
 *  New: Exposed mobility filtering query params. This allows users to filter out static mobility, for example from scene queries.
 *  New: Refactored constraint instance so that we can easily swap parameters at runtime using profiles.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed Unreal collision bounds calculation not accounting for rotation of convex elements.

##### PLATFORMS #####

*  Bugfix: Fixed bVerfiyPeer flag to only be set after CertBundlePath has been set, otherwise trying to verify the SSL session without any cert file doesn't make sense.
 *  Made sure dSYM generation action in UBT on Mac does not start before the source dylib is ready.

###### ANDROID ######

*  New: Added a new variable to AndroidRuntimeSettings called "bCreateAllPlatformsInstall" that makes packaging create install files for all platforms (PC and Mac/Linux).
 *  Renamed FManifestReader to FAndroidFileManifestReader in AndroidFile to prevent conflict.
 *  Ensured that the OnControllerConnectionChange delegates will now properly dispatch on a gamepad connection.

###### IOS ######

*  New: Added PRAGMA\_DISABLE\_OPTIMIZATION\_ACTUAL and PRAGMA\_ENABLE\_OPTIMIZATION\_ACTUAL defines for iOS.

###### LINUX ######

*  Updated LinuxToolChain to use the same output delegate for all of its actions when cross-compiling.
    
     *  This avoids the compile and link actions being split into different batches.

###### MAC ######

*  New: Added a check if UnrealBuildTool.csproj exists before trying to compile it in Mac GenerateProjectFiles.sh. Fixes a problem in binary distribution where the script would show an error (but still succeed) due to missing UnrealBuildTool.csproj.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bug in Kismet where a reference to an element within a TMap was being used to add a new value, which results in use-after-free as the memory is reallocated before initialising the new element.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed compilation on iOS 10 by disabling depth-clip mode on iOS, despite earlier headers it isn't actually available.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed UBT not building on non HFS partitions on OSX.
 *  Bugfix: Crash fix in USoundNodeLooping::NotifyWaveInstanceFinished.
 *  Changed BinnedAllocFromOS/BinnedFreeToOS/PageProtect on Apple platforms to use mmap/munmap/mprotect to match expected behaviour.
 *  Disabled the "-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor " warning on iOS, tvOS & macOS.
 *  Implemented RHIGetSupportedResolution & RHIGetAvailableResolutions for Mac Metal.
 *  Made bGeneratedSYMFile true by default and changed some ifs in Mac UBT code so that non-debug configs always build dSYM files on Mac, unless bGeneratedSYMFile is set to false in BuildConfiguration.xml.

###### PLAYSTATION 4 ######

*  New: Added validation that the texture pool size is not set to automatic (-1), so it fails with a helpful error message rather than a crash attempting to allocate too much memory.

###### XBOX ONE ######

*  New: Added support for Visual Studio 2015 Update 3.
 *  New: Added the bDisableSymbolCache to the link environment configuration to allow Xbox One builds to skip the creation of the runtime symbol cache.
    
     *  Disabling the symbol cache creation will slightly decrease build times and increase available memory at runtime, but stacks will be printed without symbols.
 *  New: Changed appWinPumpMessages so that it doesn't rely on the current thread to retrieve the dispatcher.
 *  New: Enabled the use of constexpr for the engine on Xbox One.
 *  New: Unreal Build Tool now generates the correct build environment for Xbox One directly.
    
     *  This method puts less reliance on the environment a build is launched in and eliminates a build issue if the PATH environment variable is too long.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an issue where builds could fail if the DurangoXDK environment variable did not contain a trailing slash.
 *  Disabled a warning that was impacting some users because of a toolchain issue.

###### HTML5 ######

*  New: The Engine will now obtain the game's w&h resolution with javascript.
 *  New: Allowed use of TMaps in JSON.
 *  Emscripten SDK moved from Engine/Source/ThirdParty/HTML5/emsdk to Engine/Extras/ThirdPartyNotUE/emsdk.
 *  Ensured HTML5 LaunchOn with pathnames that contain whitespaces is now handled properly - escape quotes needs to be escaped itself.

###### WINDOWS ######

*  Bugfix: Fixed errors compiling WmfMedia and SteamVR plugins for Windows XP.

##### PROGRAMMING #####

*  New: Added compatibility for Visual Studio 2015 Update 3.
 *  New: Added feature to reuse existing response files if the contents are unchanged.
 *  New: Added SlackIntegrations module for sending messages to Slack from UE4 projects.
 *  New: FActiveMorphTarget is no longer tagged as a USTRUCT.
 *  New: Fixed an issue where compiling CPP files using the Visual C toolchain could be too long for XGE to process.
 *  New: The UnrealVS Visual Studio extension now exposes the "UnrealVS.CompileSingleFile" command. Binding to a shortcut key (eg. Ctrl-F7) from the Visual Studio options dialog allows quickly compiling the current file without linking binaries.
 *  New: Added a UBT config setting to allow overriding the output directory for PCH files. To use, edit Engine\\Saved\\UnrealBuildTool\\BuildConfiguration.xml and add: D:\\TestOutputDir .
 *  Changed Unreal Build Tool batch files to use MSBuild version 14 (the version that ships with Visual Studio 2015).
 *  Ensured that UnrealBuildTool on Windows will now prioritize user settings in the My Documents folder over the one in the AppData folder, but reads both files if present. Previous behavior was to ignore the one with the older timestamp.
 *  Updated OpenSSL Runtime Dependencies to include VS2015 and remove VS2012.

##### RENDERING #####

*  New: Adapted GetStaticBatchElementVisibility to support changing visibility of batches with a single element (for view-dependent culling of static mesh elements).
    
     *  Added GetStaticBatchElementShadowVisibility that allows culling static mesh elements when rendering shadow depths using information about the light.
     *  Note: Any user-created vertex factory that implements GetStaticBatchElementVisibility will need to set bRequiresPerElementVisibility on their FMeshBatch.
 *  New: Added ability to request a screenshot without a file name, for screenshots that won't be written to disk.
 *  New: Added cvar r.StencilForLODDither, which is compiled into shaders and forces a full prepass when enabled. This allows r.EarlyZPass to remain changeable at runtime (when not forced to a value by features that are enabled).
 *  New: Added cvars that can be used to force the engine to target shader model 4 instead of shader model 5 on cards from a specific vendor (r.ForceAMDToSM4, r.ForceIntelToSM4, r.ForceNvidiaToSM4).
 *  New: Added r.D3DDumpD3DAsmFile so d3d shaders dump out an assembly file when dumping shader compilations.
 *  New: Allowed r.HLOD console command to be used in Test configurations.
 *  New: Baked out distribution UObjects for particle systems.
 *  New: Exported AddStreamingManager and RemoveStreamingManager functions on FStreamingManagerCollection.
 *  New: Added forward renderer initial implementation - not ready for general use.
    
     *  Point and spot lights are culled to a frustum space grid, base pass loops over culled lights.
     *  Light culling uses a reverse linked list to avoid a per-cell limit, and the linked list is compacted to an array before the base pass.
     *  New cvars to control light culling: r.Forward.MaxCulledLightsPerCell, r.Forward.LightGridSizeZ, r.Forward.LightGridPixelSize.
     *  A full Z Prepass is forced with forward shading. This allows deferred rendering before the base pass of shadow projection methods that only rely on depth.
     *  Dynamic shadows are packed based on the assigned stationary light ShadowMapChannel, since stationary lights are already restricted to 4 overlapping.
     *  GBuffer render targets are still allocated.
     *  Fixed several issues in parallax corrected base pass reflections - not blending out box shape, discontinuity in reflection vector, not blending with stationary skylight properly.
     *  Forward shading is now used for TLM\_SurfacePerPixelLighting translucency in the deferred path.
 *  New: Moved RHI prefix out of command list macros so you can find callers in a Find in Files for RHIBlendState, etc.
 *  New: Split ProceduralMeshComponent plugin into Runtime and Editor modules.
 *  New: Updated VulkanSDK headers and libraries to 1.0.17.0.
 *  New: Added code to prevent flooding of rendering thread with heartbeats.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed crash bug in FCanvasBorderItem rendering caused by a null texture dereference.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed ensures related to ECVF\_Scalability.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bad hash on landscape grass components.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a critical bug in the render thread fencing that could sometimes cause fences to complete before previous commands.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a large number of API validation warnings and errors across all shaders.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed an uninitialized memory bug in the static mesh scene proxy HLODcoloration visualization code.
 *  Bugfix: Fixed a bad call to RemoveAt() in FFinalPostProcessSettings::UpdateEntry() causing potential infinite loop.
 *  Bugfix: FIxed calls to length(float) on Metal, GL & Vulkan.
 *  Increased stack sizes for thread pools.
 *  MaterialParameterCollections will now create default resources (uniform buffers) which are used when no valid FScene is present (eg DrawTile while exporting materials to lightmass).
 *  Potential crash fix on foliage occlusion queries and reflection captures.
 *  Removed outdated cvar, "r.ShaderModelDebug".
 *  Removed unused setting bAllowDebugViewmodesOnConsoles (replaced some time ago by r.ForceDebugViewModes).
 *  Renamed "r.SaveUncompressedEXRFrames" to "r.SaveEXR.CompressionQuality" as part of a refactor.
 *  Renamed material function "IsUsedWithDeferredDecal" to "IsDeferredDecal".
 *  Set the "ToggleLight" console command to now be flagged as a cheat.

###### FX ######

*  New: Added a CVar to disable/freeze GPU particle simulation (r.GPUParticle.Simulate).

###### LIGHTING ######

*  New: Refactored shadow depth.
    
     *  Shadow setup and render target allocation now happens in InitViews, and shadow depth rendering happens at one spot in the frame. This provides control over where shadow depths are rendered for things like async compute, and allows easy atlasing of shadowmaps for forward shading.
     *  The 33Mb of shadow depth buffers in FSceneRenderTargets has been removed, and shadow depth buffers are now allocated as needed. Shadow depth memory is now unbounded which can cause Out of Video Memory in extreme cases.
     *  A large amount of duplicated code to handle each shadow type has been combined.
     *  Cleaner parallel rendering: no more view hacking for the shadow depth pass, no more shadow depths in the middle of translucency.
     *  'vis ShadowDepthAtlas' or 'vis WholeSceneShadowMap' must now be used to visualize the shadow depth textures.

###### OPTIMIZATIONS ######

*  New: Added a cvar that controls unbinding of all texture resources between materials changes in the DX11 renderer (r.UnbindResourcesBetweenDrawsInDX11) to improve the readability of GPA captures, off by default as it has a minor CPU performance impact.
 *  New: Added a scalability CVar for landscape LOD biasing (r.LandscapeLODBias), which can have a huge impact on triangle count and help low-end vertex bound GPUs.
 *  New: Made the optimization to combine upscaling/downscaling and tonemapping optional based on the amount of upscaling that will occur.
    
     *  r.Tonemapper.ScreenPercentage has been renamed to r.Tonemapper.MergeWithUpscale.Mode.
     *  r.Tonemapper.MergeWithUpscale.Threshold is a new setting used when r.Tonemapper.MergeWithUpscale.Mode is set to 2, which indicates to only try to merge the passes if the ratio of the area before upscale/downscale to the area afterwards is greater than the threshold.
     *  This prevents running the tonemapper on all of the target res pixels when the source res is far smaller, as that can cause it to be a loss to merge the passes.
 *  New: Made sure that Vulkan always runs using an RHI thread.
 *  Removed a bogus autocomplete for ShowMaterialDrawEvents, which was previously renamed r.ShowMaterialDrawEvents.

##### UI #####

*  Moved FSlateIcon definition to SlateCore.

###### SLATE ######

*  New: Added FText property handle type.
    
     *  Required for manipulating FText properties from a slate details customization.
 *  FExternalDragOperation can now contain both text and file data at the same time.
    
     *  This better mirrors what the OS level drag-and-drop operations are capable of, and some applications will actually give you both bits of data at the same time.

###### UMG ######

*  Demoted errors regarding widget-bound properties when first compiling a newly created widget blueprint - otherwise an ensure occurs.

##### VR #####

*  New: Implemented VRHeadsetLost and VRHeadsetReconnected delegates for PlayStation VR.
 *  New: Removed ISR's use of SV\_CullDistance and now relying only on SV\_ClipDistance to cut down on interpolators.

##### UPGRADE NOTES #####

#### C++ API CHANGES ####

*  SceneComponent AttachChildren, AttachParent, AttachSocketName are now private. Use GetAttachChildren/Parent/SocketName, AttachTo, or SetupAttachment as appropriate.
 *  Replace uses of AHUD::WhiteColor, GreenColor, and RedColor with FColor::White, Green, and Red.
 *  In the HTML5JavaScripteFx.js and .h files, the function signature for UE\_MakeHTTPDataRequest() has changed.
 *  With regards to localized strings, because of the change from an int32 to a uint16, 0, rather than INDEX\_NONE, is now considered the "unset" value for a history.
 *  FContext (in our internationalization manifest) has been renamed to FManifestContext to better reflect its purpose and avoid naming conflicts with other code

#### ANIMATION ####

*  Added a validation path to see if mesh hierarchy matches with the animation skeleton when initializing animation.
    
     *  If you have issue with animation not playing, make sure to save the mesh correctly with the skeleton.
     *  Additive APIs are fixed to work with it.
 *  "Get World From Context Object" does not behave the same as in non-game thread.
    
     *  This causes additive scale to save the difference of scale, which means 0 if no difference. If you're doing any math on those FTransform, it won't work correctly anymore due to 0 scale
     *  If you have issue with animation not playing, make sure to save the mesh correctly with the skeleton.
     *  Additive APIs are fixed to work with it.
 *  Local Atoms has been changed to Bone Space Transforms, and Space Bases has been changed to Component Space Transforms. This includes functions that were accessing those members. The old methods have been deprecated and need to be updated to use the new functions.
 *  Several animation related headers are no longer globally included. This means you may need to include them explicitly if you were using those classes.
    
     *  Common examples are Animation/AnimInstance.h, Animation/AnimMontage.h or Animation/AnimNotifies/AnimNotifyState.h
 *  The SkeletalMesh.h header is no longer globally included, so you may need to explicitly include it in your project.
 *  The 'rigid' vertex array "Rigid Vertices" in Skel Mesh Chunk has been removed, all vertices are now considered 'soft' (rigid status was not used by GPU skinning). Any code dealing with vertex data will need to be updated.
 *  FSkelMeshChunk has been removed and properties are moved into FSkelMeshSection. Any code dealing with 'chunks' will need to be updated.

#### AUDIO ####

*  In addition to class changes to support threaded sound evaluation, there are a number of patterns that are no longer viable.
    
     *  It is no longer safe to reference any game state from a Sound Node. Instead game thread classes should marshall relevant data to audio thread owned structures, using "Run Command On Audio Thread" in the Audio Thread.

#### AUTOMATION ####

*  If you experience regressions in automated tests, they may have been ignoring ensures because they were previously classed as warnings.

#### CORE ####

*  Code which tries to concatenate a String with an integral value should either explicitly cast to a character type if it should append a char, or changed to use something like "To String" in Lexical Conversion if it should append the string representation of that integer.
 *  Using Throwf in FError and associated catch blocks should be replaced with a regular C++ throw call and proper exception class.
 *  PLATFORM\_COMPILER\_HAS\_DEFAULT\_FUNCTION\_TEMPLATE\_ARGUMENTS has been removed. This is now expected to be 1 on all supported platforms.
 *  PLATFORM\_COMPILER\_HAS\_VARIADIC\_TEMPLATES has been removed. This is now expected to be 1 on all supported platforms.
 *  Replace PLATFORM\_COMPILER\_HAS\_EXPLICIT\_OPERATORS usage by assuming it's defined to 1.
    
     *  Replace FORCEINLINE\_EXPLICIT\_OPERATOR\_BOOL with 'FORCEINLINE explicit operator bool'.
     *  Remove any usage of SAFE\_BOOL\_OPERATORS.
 *  Specializations of Type Traits which override its "Needs Copy Constructor", “Needs Move Constructor”, “Needs Copy Assignment”, “Needs Move Assignment”, and “Needs Destructor” traits will be ignored and compiler-based traits will be used instead.
    
     *  HAS\_TRIVIAL\_ASSIGN(T), HAS\_TRIVIAL\_COPY(T) and HAS\_TRIVIAL\_DESTRUCTOR(T) should be replaced with TIsTriviallyCopyAssignable::Value, TIsTriviallyCopyConstructible::Value and TIsTriviallyDestructible::Value respectively.
     *  "TIsFloatType" should be replaced with “TIsFloatingPoint”.
     *  "TIsIntegralType" should be replaced with “TIsIntegral”.
     *  "TIsSignedIntegralType" should be replaced with “TIsSigned”.
     *  "TIsArithmeticType" should be replaced with “TIsArithmetic”.
     *  "TIsPointerType" should be replaced with “TIsPointer”.
     *  "TNoDestructorType" should be replaced with “TIsTriviallyDestructible”.
 *  Use of variables inside a DO\_CHECK-only block will not compile if the check() is outside a DO\_CHECK-only block. Either both or neither should be inside the block.
 *  When "Unload Or Abandon Module With Callback" in the Module Manager would be called with a third bool argument, that argument should be removed (if the bool is 'false') or replaced by a call to “Abandon Module With Callback”, passing only the module name argument (if the bool is 'true').
 *  You may get errors about a skipped UFUNCTION, UPROPERTY etc. when upgrading. This is an indication that these elements are not reflected and so may be an indication of a bug (e.g. a skipped UPROPERTY which is a UObject pointer will not be tracked by the garbage collector). The usage should be reviewed and fixed, perhaps by removing the markup, moving the element outside of the skipped preprocessor block or some other form of refactoring.

#### EDITOR AND TOOLS ####

*  Make sure to rebuild the proxy meshes for all clusters.

#### GAMEPLAY FRAMEWORK ####

*  All Tickable Game Objects should implement the virtual "Get Tickable Game Object World" function to indicate which World they should be ticked with, otherwise they will be ticked after all Worlds as part of the set of tickable game objects that do not belong to a world.

#### ABILITIES SYSTEM ####

*  Converting existing float based gameplay attributes to use the FGameplayAttributeData struct is a two step process. First, resave any assets that contain gameplay attributes. Second, replace the float variables with FGameplayAttributeData, or a game specific struct derived from it, in your code.

#### ONLINE ####

*  Online Subsystem modules have been moved to Plugins and must now be included in the plugins section of your project's uproject file and must no longer be referenced via "DynamicallyLoadedModuleNames" in your project's Build.cs files. Game projects can continue to reference Online Subsystem classes as before. Any custom modifications made in Engine that reference Online Subsystem must be routed through the Online Engine Interface.

##### WINDOWS #####

*  The Applocal Prerequisites Directory setting should be set to a base directory that contains files the binary files.
    
     *  The Applocal Prerequisites Directory can be specified as an absolute path or relative to the engine or project directory using the variables $(EngineDir) and $(ProjectDir).
     *  Files should be laid out within the Applocal Prerequisites Directory in the format \\\*.dll, where:
        
         *  is the specific target platform (i.e. Win32 or Win64).
         *  is a unique package name (i.e. UCRT or Microsoft.VC140.CRT).

#### RENDERING ####

*  The bounding box of a Static Mesh instance no longer includes its simple collision geometry. Now, the bounding box only includes renderable geometry.
 *  Any user-created vertex factory that implements the Get Static Batch Element Visibility function will need to set "Requires Per Element Visibility" on its Mesh Batch.

##### OPTIMIZATIONS7 #####

*  The console command "r.Tonemapper.ScreenPercentage" has been renamed to “r.Tonemapper.MergeWithUpscale.Mode”, and offers additional modes (see the main release notes or cvar help for more information).

##### MOBILE RENDERING #####

*  Mobile depth of field now requires Depth Of Field Method to be Gaussian. Other options will result in depth of field being disabled.
