Personally I switched a bit ago to UDK and now UE4 due to my lack of scripting...in short, in Unity if you want something you have to code it ( ehm...Maya anyone? ) UDK previously and UE4 now have Blueprints, which is basically visual scripting quite easy to use and to modify/share.
So you could see them as: - Unreal Engine 4: similar to Softimage, lots of tools to do the same job, some unique features and very powerfull under the hood - Unity: same as Maya, powerfull and used by a lot of people, but the "vanilla" version is not so user friendly and suffer of the same thing as Maya, means that there is a plugin for basically everything which turns Unity into an usable engine... 2015-03-02 19:05 GMT+01:00 Adam Seeley <[email protected]>: > And I was about to start learning some Unity. > > Unity users & Unreal users both seem to be happy campers. > Anybody here have any experience with them?
