no… sadly i messed up a keyframe in after effects, there’s another video uploaded that doesnt now
unfortunately youtube doesn’t let you replace videos and i didnt want to remove the old one yet and break all the links.

Today we have a look at the Material usage flags and what they do, so we can optimise our materials by making sure we’re not using too many when we don’t need to.

perfect, i need exactly that for a sideproject. planned to check out niagara particle collision for mesh particles for this evening. <3
I’ve not updated this thread in a while but i’ve been working on a series of videos on Blueprints
so far I’ve covered
Introduction
Arrays and Loops
Timelines
Splines and Linetraces:
Today we have a look at how we can use a line trace to check the location and surface angle of a floor mesh, and place a Cube mesh there.

(Been a while since my last update but hopefully going to be starting to do these a bit more regularly again!)
In this video we have a look at how to set up a Landscape to use a Runtime Virtual Texture and how we can use that to do two very powerful things - seamlessly blend a mesh object with a landscape, and use World Position Offset to align a mesh to the Landscape - great for sand and snow particles!

This week we have a look at how we can use Vertex Colours on a Static Mesh to animate the spawn location of our particles. A really neat little trick that gives you a lot of control over your particles

This week we build on last weeks lesson - using textures and the g buffer to control particle locations via custom modules.

In this video we have a look at how we can make a simple scratch module to constrain our particles to a player location - great for things like dust in open world games.
