NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

[AlexJ16]

Fully turned my focus on 4.15.1.

I most likely won't share any 4.15 build for now. They're requiring more work and might be 'hacky' here and there.

Upgraded from 4.15 to 4.15.1 and brought Hairworks in.

Also busy working on unannounced FPS game ! Can't play with UE build all day long

Looks good! Why aren't you sharing your 4.15 build? I'm sure there's several people it could help!

[MENTION=330604]Miles.Macklin[/MENTION] When can I see an update about WaveWorks?

Sorry, I am only able to comment on Flex release schedule. I am not sure the status of Waveworks integration.

Have you both checked the Ragdoll test map? there's clearly collision with the ragdoll which is a SkeletalMeshActor using physics asset. The 'per-poly' isn't working, but it isn't that surprising?

Just made this small test:

Thanks for putting this together Maxime!

It only works if skeletal mesh is root. It doesn't work with with something like character setup.

Can you be more specific about your character setup? Is this not a skeletal mesh actor? Or it is parented to some other actor somehow?

Just use ACharacter as base. It have Capsule component as root, and Skeletal Mesh is child of capsule. In this setup Flex Cloth doesn't collide with skeletal mesh.
Attaching Flex component as child to skeletal mesh, doesn't fix anything.

xenthor this is step by step way to reproduce my issue :

Same for me. 4.14.3 VXGI branch here. Also, enabling directional light VXGI indirect lighting crashes the editor.

Just a note to say that the official Flex and Flow integrations into UE 4.15.0 are now available here:

+1 with this. I guess [MENTION=649466]Maxime.Dupart[/MENTION] has reasons not to share the build at the moment but it would really help if he has plan to in the future. Since [MENTION=31173]GalaxyMan2015[/MENTION] has paused his integration build progress, it looks like he's our only hope for the awesome GameWorks custom builds

This is great. Thanks guys! I just tested flow and it looks beautiful. Solid fuel map is especially interesting. Is there any documentation?

I had a look at the NvFlowPlugin, am I to understand that NvFlow is a plugin to be used on any branch of UE4?

Is there any way to change a staticmesh asset Flex Asset parameter to (cloth,solid or soft) with c++ at runtime without using the staticmesh editor?

As stated on github "The integration is mostly isolated to a plugin, with minimal code added to the engine." so as i understand its not entirely plugin.

There's a bug in the Volumetric Lighting branch when using render targets (in my case using scene capture 2d with a scene capture component in my character blueprint drawn to the HUD). Things get way brighter than they should be. With Volumetric Lighting Intensity at 1 things still look pretty normal but if it is changed to 20 there's a huge change when compared to what happens within the viewport.

Thanks Nvidia team !

Can't wait for the 4.15 VXGI branch as it will finally mix AFR (sli) and VXGI. (hopefully)
We use it for visualizations and for a ton of modifications on the fly, VXGI really pays off in spite of it's limitations. It's however very taxing in 4k so hopefully with SLI support we'll see it go to fluid frame rates.

Oh,no! I really look forward to use waveworks ue4.14 or4.15. Why not update recently？ Is this branch a state of no maintenance？
