Wow nice!! The vapors really help to sell the effect.

This one is a 10/10

Hey Simon, was your solution to your spline problem anything you can share? I’m watching the video Mez suggested right now, but I’d love to see your method if you’re able

What solution/problem are you referring to?

Moving and bending your tiling mesh along a spline, and how to go about that in Unreal. You mentioned you had to use a different method than the one Unreal spline mesh tutorial video.

Ah! Well, I used the tutorial but this video did not cover anything about moving the mesh along the spline. So I used the built-in Blueprint-Functions to make it move :slight_smile: I’ll share the project and blueprints soon. If you need it urgently you can send me a PM and I can upload it.

Take your time! The moving along the spline was my question as well, but no urgent need on my end (that I know of…)

Imagine what this would look like if you simulated the curve based on initial input values. You would be able to move around the pipe!!

Great idea @Niels!

Hm … I was opening a Firefox-Tab and my thread showed a thumbnail of a man with a cat…not sure how this could happen :smiley:
