Unlocking the Unreal Engine Material Editor (Udemy.com)

It's decent but the teacher has been omitting/not covering several steps at this point. Getting frustrating.

Me ha encantado el curso. Es corto, pero te proporciona un entendimiento avanzado del sistema de materiales.

I want to learn more useful technique like x-ray,

Clear explanation and step by step!

Content is informative but the delivery is too fast for me. I'm a professional game developer with 20 years experience so I was surprised how often I was having to pause and rewind.

Easy to follow. Well paced and explained!

Doesnt respond.

So far so good. I was worried that the course would be dry and boring, but it is very interesting so far, and the Instructor is clear and direct!

I want to preface all of the following information by saying that this tutorial is informative, but that is as far as it goes.
I am giving it a 1 star, because I was looking for a tutorial that will help me understand what materials are and what can be done with them, instead i got a tutorial on what materials in most cases are and a presentation on how when you know materials everything is easy.
Basically the lecturer treats the audience as himself. He doesn't explain what goes where, what does what in detail when working with a certain variable, blueprint, node or whatever. The whole course is like a semi-cooked pasta with a walmart sauce. It looks like food, it should be food but somehow it is neither pasta nor sauce.
He explains 80% of the things he does. On 22nd video about Tri-planar mapping, he jumps from one texture to another with 3 functions without even explaining if he is giving it as an example or if this is the final state of the node he used. You start with a VertexNormalWS and you know that this will be used to "fix" the material, but suddenly you have power,abs, mask without even knowing that this will continue in the tutorial, while he prefaces it like it's just an example.
So to give an example of this:
You watch gordon ramsey cooking, and he shows you that you will cook pasta. He says that a pasta can be boiled in water with salt, but you can also put in some octopus in the water and then drops the octopus in the water with the pasta. So you naturally think "hmm he shows how a pasta can be cooked, not how right now we will cook it, i came here for pasta boiling, the video says pasta boiling and i have only pasta", but suddenly you see gordon cooking the octopus too. So now you have to find an octopus otherwise this pasta cooking will be something different that what he is showing.
Definetely could upgrade the quality of this tutorial. This person knows his craft, or so I think. But as a lecturer he has a lot to learn. You can't just jump in Unreal Engine and expect people to catch as fast as you what the F is going on. After all the course is "Unlcoking the unreal engine material editor" not "Click click material node, some math and prints and you're good to go"

Exactly what I was looking for, very well explained. I've learned Unreal for other different things but they never explained properly about materials and textures and I think it's one of the most important things you need to learn for the artistic view of your games and architectural visualization

Would love to see an update on Layered Materials (3+ Material Blends)

yes!
