#dataassets
Data-Assets are the best! 😱

I just reduced the size of all my main Objects by more then 50% by putting my meshes and VFX into dataassets with a softreference that only loads on use!!!

If you never looked into Dataassets or enginevariations - Do it now! 🖥️

I am currently working on a new chapter for my new Packt book where I will be focusing on creating a full mission system based on #UnrealEngine SubSystems and DataAssets.

Things are getting pretty interesting...

Not posted much of the game lately so figured I’d share an update 😬

It now has gun receiver modes, supports multi-projectile shotguns, weapon slots & new weapon wheel I decided to add last Friday 😅

Oh & I moved the weapons to DataAssets which was a hassle 🤣

I have a new opinion piece out in the @thestar.com today: "Killing the digital services tax is a step backwards" (paywalled) - #Google extracts $b worth of #DataAssets from Canada each year, but #Canada gets nothing

Killing the Digital Services Tax is a step backwards
Canadian consumer are handing over billions of dollars in data assets each year to U.S. firms and receiving zero returns for it. That’s why we need a Digital Services Tax,

*Changed the Weapons to DataAssets

I had just been using a base class but it became messy when I did the same with the pickups & had to have a lot of the same data in both (ID, DisplayName, etc…)

definitions, validates changes, and regenerates typed DataAssets from source data.
- **ProjectPlacementEditor** (`Plugins/Editor/ProjectPlacementEditor`) — creates configured actors from generated definitions, then reapplies or replaces placed actors when definitions change....

The core idea is simple: change game content as plain JSON, and the editor-side pipeline carries the update end to end — it detects the changed data, regenerates typed DataAssets, and propagates the new definition into actors already placed in the editor scene, without a C++ recompile or manual...

11.- "DataAsset Fragments"
A simple trick to make DataAssets modular, implementing a composite pattern via UObjects and some specifiers.

(When I wrote this I thought I was discovering something big, but my time on MPG proved me wrong. Like immediately)

The way how I am dealing with items, abilities using GAS is to run DataAssets of items with their own abilities that may be granted to the actor (your character) upon equip. That's just a very rough example how modular you can get it with tags included per type, and create even more compatibilities

An excellent addition shown above is how @dagsterio takes the loosen @moderndatastack and brings it from the pre-modern stack to the next level with its #dataassets and #SWdefinedassets.

The really weird thing is nothing got checked into Perforce that seems likely to have caused this - it was several Quest DataAssets, one DataTable, and 3 levels (well, 12 levels because it was the main map, the lighting map, the placed assets map, and the blockout map for each level)

Pft no. And switching them to DataAssets doesn't work either, I'll have to instantiate the Blueprint classes into actual objects and register them to the Component, or to the Subsystem...
