Good morning everyone! I’ve got a cool new cameras-related feature coming out in Unreal Engine 5.5, and I hope people will find it useful and interesting. In the meantime, here’s the good boy chewing on sticks! #UE5 #gamedev

A good boy golden retriever chewing on a stick by the side of a trail in Deer Lake Park, BC. The sun is rising just behind his head.
The same good boy golden retriever chewing on another stick, by another trail, still in Deer Lake Park, BC. Beyond are the wetlands covered in the morning fog, with the forest and mountains in the background.

Good morning everyone! This week my #TTRPG group for which I usually GM #RuneQuest is going on a short hiatus: one of the players will GM a few sessions of #Pendragon for us! I’m pretty excited! Have some good fluffy boy pictures for the occasion!

If you tilt your head and squint a bit, it looks as if modern #TTRPG games used to be scenarios, and modern TTRPG rules used to be playstyles
