Mono for Unreal Engine is a plugin for Unreal Engine that allows writing gameplay code with C# and F#.

Very nice for those wanting to get into UE and not ready for C++, made by a Microsoft developer that was working on Xamarin. Really temps me into making Mir with Unreal :<3

3D models, latest tech in an engine built for game development. Easy access to tools such as Substance painter/designer. You could even use the current C# server and redo the client in UE but it's such a big job doing modelling, textures etc. Plus you need a half decent machine to develop in UE and I'm limited to two Macbooks right now xD

Just be glad they they at least work for you, those Macbooks I mean. They have bad soldering on cpus and a fix is expensive (refloating) or means replacing mobo, more expensive still. I was given one to diagnose and in the end was told to keep it, maximum I can listen to audiobooks on it since it collapses under just about any activity.

lol not had any issues got a 2012 Macbook Pro top spec which still runs most things I need perfectly and a new Air which isn't bad but not top spec. I think I'll be picking up one of these next month so I might look further into the UE thing:

The problem on macbook it that they have small space and things get heaty so fast

I had like 80degrees on custom a macbook pro 2015(wich is small than the 2012 version)

I've got the Alienware 17 had it since Jan 2014, still going strong, Alienware is one of those brands you either like it or not, a lot of people hate on them because of the price but your not just paying for the looks & spec you are paying for the customer service (next day in house repair) when I have had to cal them out, they asked no questions basically came out and repaired, GL with your purchase
