Any Good Resources on making UI Materials?

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.
