Does anyone know of any comprehensive tutorials or explainers on making Materials for UI? Google always pick ints specifically to 3D materials. Very frustrating haha.
I saw Lyra and it’s just impossible to follow because of how many material functions and layers of Material Instances it has. I just need to know how to make things like niagara-style effects, animated mask effects, etc.
Thanks!

I think you need to start from the basics and learn how materials are setup. A bit of shader knowledge and you should be good to go on learning some more of the advanced stuff.
The best I have is to search: ui material ue4 or ui material ue5 on google or YouTube.
I suggest watching some of Tech Art Aid, as he breaks down how shaders are constructed and built. Learning about the nodes you have at your disposal and UV maps.
