Learn how virtual scouting works with the Unreal Engine Multi-User Editor (Unreal MUE) in this clip from course 6 of Perforce U. The Unreal Engine Multi-User Editor enables more creative and immersive interaction with a digital environment created for a virtual production. Virtual scouting is one example: MUE eliminates the need for creatives doing virtual (VR) scouting to have a mastery of Unreal and its controls.

In this clip from course 7 of Perforce U, learn about the basic workflows involved in 3D art creation and virtual production. Version control is a necessity for VFX artists and designers working across Unreal Engine and digital content creation tools (DCCs) such as Blender, Maya, and Photoshop. See how tools like Helix Core and Helix DAM can work together to help you collaborate on the 3D art files used in your pre-vis and virtual production projects.

Shelving files in Perforce Helix Core allows users to store edits they have made in their changelist without submitting these changes to the stream they are working in. This clip is from course 4 of Perforce U College of Virtual Production, “Perforce Helix Core Advanced Work Principles.” It covers some examples of when you may want to shelve files and the basics of how to shelve files in Perforce Helix Core.

Learn how to use Perforce Helix Core through both Helix Visual Client (P4V) and Unreal Engine. This step-by-step tutorial is provided as a preview of our Perforce U College of Virtual Production training. This clip from course 3 (“Perforce Helix Core Work Principles”) also explains some of the basic principles involved in using Helix Core across different environments.

Learn how to collaborate in Unreal Engine (along with some great best practices) in this clip from course 5 of Perforce U. The majority of the assets used by the Unreal Engine Editor are binary format. Because binary files cannot be merged in the same way that text files can, teams who need to collaborate in Unreal Engine face extra challenges for source control. Course 5, “Merging and Collaborating with Unreal Engine,” also covers getting started with Unreal Engine Multi-User Editor (Unreal MUE), how to resolve merge conflicts between streams in Perforce Helix Core, and more.
