I'm delivering a talk alongside the wonderful @amathlog.bsky.social on Large Procedural Systems with PCG. If you're working with PCG at a large scale, come! There's a lot covered including Biome Core, Builders, Hierarchical Generation and more. All are common problems I keep chatting to Devs about!

Return of #UE5 #PCG tip of the day! If you ever tried to use Transform Points and were sad that you can't provide a Rotation Min/Max for each point, here is a solution! The gist is to generate a random value for each point, then apply Lerp between max and min provided as attributes!

We just released a talk called "PCG: Advanced Topics & New Features in UE 5.5", see what cool things you can make with PCG in Unreal 5.5! (note that this is more of a showcase than a tutorial) #uetips www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3ke...

Happy new year to all! New #UE5 #PCG tip of the day! You can send data from PCG to the material for each instance. For example I can read $Color.RGB on each point and send it to my custom "ColorMaterial". Static attributes (with $) only work in 5.5, but dynamic attributes work in previous versions.

#UETips #PCG Let's see how we can combine the material override with the spawn actor! On Spawn Actor, you have the option to specify Post Spawn functions. If I create a custom BP, inheriting from StaticMeshActor, with 2 materials variables, I can have a Post Spawn function that will set them. 1/2

Adrien@amathlog.bsky.social · 2y ago

#UETips #PCG For materials, it is a little more involving to override them. On the Static Mesh Spawner you can specify multiple material overrides, one per material slot on your mesh. In this example, I select randomly materials for the leaves (Material ID 0) and trunk (Material ID 1)! 🌈
