How'd you make your shader compilation screen on startup? I was struggling getting that to work myself.

The smoke effects are great btw, I really like the transition between the day & night ghosts.

Hi, It's actually pretty simple. I'm using a standard loading screen setup in slate. Then I'm querying each frame

FShaderPipelineCache::NumPrecompilesRemaining()

to get number of shaders left to compile. If it's greater than zero I keep the loading screen visible and input disabled.

I'm glad you're liking the visuals!!
