Original message (March of 2016):

I wrote a tool for converting unity engine scene to unreal 4 scene.
It imports materials, meshes, etc.

Video:

The tool is not currently available anywhere, I'm contemplating selling that on either asset store if there's some interest...

The clip is 30 minutes long, so feel free to skip ahead. Texture importing took forever while I was capturing the video.

I work with both engines and really like having these kinds of tools. So yes please...
Logical next question: does it help with also migrating a scene from UE4 back to Unity..?

Great!

Same question as Franktech, does the tool make the conversion from UE4 to Unity?
Thanks

Unofortunately, currently it is one way only.

I should be able to make another plugin for migrating content backward (meaning from UE4 to Unity), but that'll be a bit more complicated, because I'd need to generate surface shader from UE4 nodes if I wanna do it properly.

This one can build UE4 material from unity standard shader settings.

Here's example of auto generated material that has multiple textures:

This is super interesting

Original video got deleted by youtube due to "failed processing" error. Thanks, youtube.

Video reuploaded.

Moral of the story: never upload avi to youtube, remux to mp4.

you probably will earn big money with it, or even can get a nice dev grant from Epic (if you apply)...

[Thunderstruck]

Great!!!
I bought hundreds Unity models assets and a quick way to convert them is very useful and welcome.
I hope to see him soon on some market,
Good job

How can I use this?

More info about getting the converter would be great.

hi, are you releasing the converter anot?

i need to port my game scene from unity to Unreal... i really do not want to rebuild the entire scene...

[Vormulac]

This would certainly be useful for using Probuilder.

Looks nice! You should really put it up on Gumroad or something.
