Tweak your visual effects in real-time, find your perfect aesthetic, and permanently bake it into a lightweight Material Instance with a single click. Designed as a true plug-and-play asset pack, it drops directly into your Content folder and is ready to use instantly on both Windows and Mac.
Key FeaturesReal-Time UI: Adjust 13 distinct visual parameters (including VHS Tracking, Grain, Distortion, Dirt, Scratches, and Vignette) via a custom Editor Utility Widget.
One-Click Baking: Instantly generate and save your live viewport settings as permanent Material Instances.
Cinematic Ready: Fully integrated Material Parameter Collections (MPC) allow for seamless animation keyframing in Sequencer.
Cross-Platform: Fully tested and optimized for both Windows and Mac development environments.
AI was utilized strictly as a foundational assistant in two specific areas:
Placeholder Textures: The base dirt and scratch textures were generated using AI. While they are fully functional and ready to use out of the box, they are primarily included as placeholders to encourage you to easily swap in your own custom textures for a unique look.
Code & Logic Optimization: AI was consulted as a programming assistant to help refine the underlying material math and UI Blueprints, ensuring the tool is highly optimized and cross-compatible.
