Re: OT: Epic going completely crazy
Has any idea negotiated a custom deal? That seems to be the most obvious way to get a cap. Obviously, that would be subject to strict NDA's but it would be interesting to know at what level in terms of gross revenue people have been able to negotiate.

It's a fantastic engine that I enjoy very much, and it may very well be the right choice in many cases but I do wish they had a cap on the royalties. If nothing else, the royalties should be carefully considered against the alternatives. I wrote a post explaining my thoughts in more detail here http://bit.ly/1zAgU6P. It came out a few days before they cut the monthly fee, but as you will see in the post that cost really was just a drop in the bucket that doesn't change the big numbers. Of course, none of this applies if you aren't subject to royalties which is bound to be a good percentage of people in this list.

So (just to be clear, because i don't think I was) I was trying to get vertex level animation (not morph targets) into UE4. So I want to rig and envelope a character (or object) in another app (like Soft or C4D) and animate it with bones. Then I want to cache the animation of the deforming mesh, and export that out to UE4 without the bones, just the animated mesh. I wanted to avoid FBX because, well, it is FBX and has been horribly varied and spotty with regards to stability and reliability over the years. Alembic is lighter weight, faster to load large caches, far more stable and reliable (although this is, of course, also partly dependent on the target application that hosts the importer). The only reason I mentioned morph targets is that many people that were users of UE4 had suggested that the way to get vertex level animation into UE4 was by using morph targets and doing one morph per frame manually. Seemed a bit stupid to do it by hand, to me. Am I being ridiculous to not just use FBX? Does FBX work well with vertex animation? If I was near my machine I would just try it myself, but I won't be for a while.

One note, as far as I can tell it does not yet support Alembic import, so getting character animation (or deforming geometry animation) into UE4 is either done via a skeleton (not as painful if the animated geo is a character I suppose), or a series of one-frame morph targets to get animated deforming geometry to work. I have been told this is the way to do it, but I have yet to attempt it as it sounds very painful. Anybody using it that can verify that, or did I miss something?

Yes - writing extensions for Fabric is simple, as is wrapping an existing C/C++ library as a Fabric extension.
