Mesh Deformer is a powerful Unreal Engine system that enables real-time mesh deformation based on physical collisions. Designed for creators who seek dynamic interactions and visual storytelling, this system allows your projectiles or other colliding objects to sculpt and alter the shape of target meshes with precision and control.

Key Features:
Real-Time Mesh Deformation via CollisionProjectiles or any object capable of generating a collision can deform target meshes upon impact, simulating physical damage or sculpted alterations.
Customizable Impact MaterialsDynamically change the material at the collision point. For instance, when a stone surface is hit, the impact area can visually shift to resemble heated magma stone or any other custom material.
Supports Multiple Projectile Types
Basic Projectile: Standard mesh-based projectiles
Niagara Projectile: Fully integrated with Niagara for advanced particle-driven simulations
Laser: Niagara-based laser beam system with precise hit detection and effects
Customizable Deformation ShapesDefine deformation results using custom 3D models. The system supports random rotation, scale adjustments, and smooth shaping to create natural-looking damage.
Physics Simulation ToggleThe target actor's physics can be enabled or disabled after impact, allowing for dynamic or static behavior depending on the desired effect.
Niagara Effects Included
8 different projectile and hit effects using Niagara
2 laser beam effects with corresponding impact visuals
Showcase Materials IncludedA set of optimized materials is provided for demonstration purposes, including:
8 lava-themed materials and instances
Additional materials such as stone, steel, and glass
Use Cases:
Environmental destruction and deformation in real-time
Visual effects for gameplay or cinematics
Sci-fi weapon systems and laser interactions
Interactive storytelling and artistic experiments in Unreal Engine
