Billboard attached to instance static mesh

Development Asset Creation
1

Hello, I’ve been trying to add a Billboard component to my actor, which is an InstanceStaticMesh.

For some reason, it’s not showing up.

I’m wondering if it something I’m doing or that Instance Static Mesh doesn’t support certain components being added to them?



Billboard = CreateDefaultSubobject<UBillboardComponent>(TEXT("Target"));
Billboard->LDMaxDrawDistance = 5000.0f;
Billboard->ScreenSize = 1.0f;
Billboard->Sprite = LoadTextureFromPath("/Game/Levels/Galaxy/Target");
Billboard->bHiddenInGame = false;
Billboard->bIsScreenSizeScaled = false;
Billboard->V = 112.75f;

Billboard->AttachToComponent(Star, FAttachmentTransformRules::KeepRelativeTransform);
