+==v2==
+===Changes===
+* Pickup system: in v1 player actor was checking for overlapping items, in v2 overlapping item sends signal to player. (Advantage: much smaller code. Disadvantage: player can't pickup items he was spawned on because the items beginOverlap function won't fire in such a case.)
+* Reduced capsule radius for characters (changed from 42 to 30), characters can now better run into each other (shouldn't be set to 0 because then the mesh overlap all the time), we might change the values again when adding H2H combat.
+* Reduced Konoko's Capsule Half Height to from 96 to 80 and moved her mesh to Z -82.
 ===Bugfixes===
-'''Editing a Montage for height adaptions:'''
-* Open a montage (or directly an anim), click on a montage group, right-click an anim, choose to open asset.
-* In the animation select root bone, disable other axes (eye symbole), click big "+" button. Edit the key... Click arrow symbols to adapt diagram.
 '''Temporal solution for climbing up:'''
-* Increased grabbing height in MoveToLocation macro. Height Location subtracts now 95 instead of 120. (In theory this number should match the characters capsule height?)
+* Increased grabbing height in MoveToLocation macro. Height Location subtracts now 107 instead of 120. (Is this somewhat related to character's capsule height?)
-* With increase grabbing height the character comes out to high. As consequence Climb_Montage uses for now ClimbAdjTest and Crouch_to_StandClimbAdjTest. The the later makes Z start at 0 and goes down -60. The -60 is not fully taken into account, however it avoid a camera glitch that would be appear between 0 and -40.
+* With increase grabbing height the [[UnrealOni/Tutorials#Editing_an_animation_for_offset_corrections|character comes out to high]]. As consequence Climb_Montage uses for now ClimbAdjTest and Crouch_to_StandClimbAdjTest. The latter makes Z start at 0 and goes down -60. The -60 is not fully taken into account, however it avoid a camera glitch that would be appear between 0 and -40.
 '''Temporal solution for climbing around a corner:'''
 * CornerLeft and CornerRight uses now Z values of -10.
+==future version==
+===Changes===
+* Merge General BP Interface with ONCC interface
+* redo health system
+===Bugfixes===
 '''Prevent rolling animation when character should just grab a ledge:'''
-* add here
+* Happens when you jump from a higher placer to a ledge.
+* Add here ...
 '''Prevent ledge grab when character falls far too fast'''
-* add here
+* When jumping down very deep ...
+* Add here ...

-===Internal improvements===
+==Unreal Engine 5==
-* Merge General BP Interface with ONCC interface
+* To be released 2021/2022.
+** Trello still lists a 4.26, which might be the last update for main version 4.
+** A separate (preview) of 4.26-Chaos (destruction physics) has been released too.
+[https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/a-first-look-at-unreal-engine-5 UE 5 is basically UE 4 fully matured.]
+Features:
+* UE 4 projects can be ported
+* Nanite: Objects with extreme high poly count are not longer a problem
+* Lumen: Real time illumination (and no more normal maps and baking required)
+* Niagara: Advanced particles system
+* Anims that better interact with env
+==Programs and automation==
+Epic seems to keep adding Python support so some aspects of workflows can be automated with more ease.
+Therefore Blender and Unreal seems to be a good combination in the future.
+'''List of interesting programs beside UE4/5:'''
+* '''Blender''' (general 3D and animations)
+* '''Subtance''' (high-end material creation)
+* '''Zbrush''' (so far more suited for "organic" character creation than Blender)
+At some point [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW_00xWZNIE Datasmith (export addons for more professional programs) / Visual Data Prep] might be worth a look.
+* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSRZ1ipQ19o Visual Dataprep (Mathew Wadstein)]
+* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3808gO4Zl4&t=363s Visual Dataprep with a material substitute table (Unreal Engine)]
+'''List of languages that can work together:'''
+* '''Blueprints''' (you could say "Visual Scripting of C++")
+** It allows relative easy programming (or more exactly "scripting") for doing standard stuff. Professionals consider it more as "rapid prototyping" to demo something.
+* '''C++''' (add new functionality)
+* '''Python''' (automation, managing assets)
+'''Things that can be automated'''
+Objects: Within Blender Python can be used to generate series of objects differing in color, material and what not.
+Export: export settings can be called from script.
+Import: Python works also with the Unreal editor...
+* import per se
+* class creation
+Placement: Python can place assets into a level.
+<!-- export? -->
+[...]
+==Working with C++==
+Note of warning: Unreal Engine gets updates on a regular basis. To have always the most and up-to-date features available one would need to transfer own code from an old engine to the new one.
+==Best practices to import old content?==
+* items
+* textures
+* materials
+* sounds
+* particle
+* collections (tables)
+** [...]
+* text pages
+* levels
+** core geometry (workaround for collision problems? breaking things up?)
+** furniture (with/without collision boxes)
+** animated objects
+** ENVP particle
+* characters
+** animations
+** char particle
+* cutscenes
+** BSL scripts?
+** FILM?
+* [...]
