Satheesh PV is a game programmer living in Mumbai, India. He was selected by Epic Games as one of the closed beta testers for Unreal Engine 4 before its public release. He started his career as a game developer in 2012 by making a first person multiplayer game with his brother and close friend using Unreal Development Kit. He also created Unreal X-Editor, which was an IDE developed for UnrealScript, the native scripting language of Unreal Engine 3. He is also a moderator at Unreal Engine forums as well as a spotlight member and engine contributor.
I am using this opportunity to thank God for giving me talent and a wonderful family, who are my real inspiration. I am grateful to them for their aspiring guidance and continuous support while writing this book. I am thankful to Epic Games for giving out such an amazing Engine to the world for free! You guys are the best!
I express my warm thanks to my fiance Gale Fernandes; without her amazing support and constructive criticism, this book possibly would not have happened.
I would also like to thank my brother Rakesh PV for introducing me to the world of games and game technologies. It is through him I learned everything related to games and I am proud to say that he is my first mentor.
I wish to extend my deep thanks and gratitude to my good friends Alexander Paschall (Epic Games) and Chance Ivey (Epic Games) and also to my best friend Reni Dev, with whom I created my first game.
I also wish to thank my dear friend and C++ mentor, Nathan Iyer (Rama) for his great support. With his amazing articles and examples on C++, he has taught many (including me) in the Unreal Community. He was kind enough to review my C++ chapter, point out mistakes and gave honest feedbacks including spending his valuable time to remove some technical discrepancies. Thank you so much Rama! You can visit his website at: http://ue4code.com/
Finally, I would like to thank Vasundhara Devi and Lucy Fernandes for giving me all those joyous moments that put a smile on my face. Thank you moms! I love you.
