Hi,

I was wondering if there are any plans to support foliage on mobile in the future? And if not, what is the best fallback solution? Placing individual Static mesh? or maybe placing pre attached “clumps” of plants to keep the object count down?

cheers

Hi Andrew, this went in the main branch last week, works exactly the same way as on desktop on the authoring side; are you building from github, or just running the editor?

That’s great news!

We are still running 4.2 but should be upgrading to 4.3 next week. I assume we will need to wait for 4.4 or pull this change across manually from github?

Andrew, this will be on 4.4, but you can try merging my changes from the master branch:
