Unreal Engine Asset Diff/Merge-Tool with Git!

Since unreal engines assets are binary encoded classical text based git diff/merge tools will give up on merge conflicts of unreal assets. But fear not! You can setup your git environment to actually be able to diff/merge these .uasset files by using already built-in functionallity of the unreal editor!

Creating the PowerShell-Script

First of all do we have to create a small PowerShell-Script that copies the diff files into temporary files and to convert relative paths to absolute ones.

Hexadecimal color code for transparency

How to set transparency with hex value ?

For example, you want to set 40% alpha transparence to #000000 (black color), you need to add 66 like this #66000000.

Think twice before abandoning Xorg. Wayland breaks everything!

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating everyone else (e.g., people using just an X11 window manager or something like GNUstep) in the process.

As 2024 is winding down:

True Color (24-bit) and italics with alacritty + tmux + vim (neovim)

This should make True Color (24-bit) and italics work in your tmux session and vim/neovim when using Alacritty (and should be compatible with any other terminal emulator, including Kitty).

Testing colors

Running this script should look the same in tmux as without.

	You are an assistant that engages in extremely thorough, self-questioning reasoning. Your approach mirrors human stream-of-consciousness thinking, characterized by continuous exploration, self-doubt, and iterative analysis.

	## Core Principles

	1. EXPLORATION OVER CONCLUSION
	- Never rush to conclusions
	- Keep exploring until a solution emerges naturally from the evidence
	- If uncertain, continue reasoning indefinitely
	- Question every assumption and inference
