NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

[GalaxyMan2015]

Next update. Flex component now can utilise the fluid shader for the main particles, and a separate material for the diffuse particles. Just need to clean up the code, do some more testing and will upload all I have done.

Hey guys, I've been working on a Blender exporter add on to get Blender hair particle systems into HairWorks. So far I've only tested it in the HairWorks Viewer but I want to publish what I have so far. All relevant info on this thread : https://forums.unrealengine.com/show...017#post416017

Its possible that the sample will not work because my branch uses newer Turbulence DLLs (Ones compatible with UE4 4.9) but I will test and update this post with my results.

Thanks GalaxyMan2015...

Tested the Turbulence test project from the NVIDIA branch, no issues. What are your PC specs? Is it possible you dont have a capable GPU maybe?

Latest changes have been committed. Includes

- Flex Component particle mode, allows unlimited - capped at container size - particles, and saving of particle positions in simulation, and custom defining of particle positions using blueprints
- Flex Component Fluid rendering - Now not confined to cascade (Which is still good for flowing fluid)
- Diffuse particles
- Permanent deformation of soft bodies
- Editor integrations, you can see the particle positions in editor (including saved simulation ones)

An example of the editor options for the new Flex Component:

Fluid test:

Since this is all Work in Progress stuff, expect problems, and not optimized performance.

wow impressive , i can download it right now or still not implemented in the latest branch?

Hey there. I'm rather new to all this GameWorks stuff, so my first question would be if it's normal that any github link I click on brings up a 404 error? Like the link in the first post of this thread, which I would assume is the link everyone's using. That one doesn't work for me for example. Everything linked to GameWorks brings up a 404 error.

EDIT: Nevermind! Fixed it. I forgot to link up my Github account with my Epic Games account.

@Mike @Alexey. Is there a plan from NVidia to add PCSS to UE4 like the one from Ubisoft games?

We're considering it.

[Nudlegaru]

We're considering it.

That is a great news

I hope we will also see this awesome tech in the near future : http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1060469

So much amazing stuff in this thread! =D Thanks GalaxyMan.

Has anyone else had any luck displaying flex fluid particles in VR? They only look correct in the left eye view for me.

@aleexy
Yesterday Nvidia announced support for Gameworks tech in UE mainly multires shading and VR SLI in addition to what is currently supported..
will it be in main branch or in gameworks NV github UE branch having flex,vxgi?

I wasnt aware there was an issue with VR, thanks for bringing it to my attention. I have a DK2 here, so I will see what I can do to resolve.
