create dynamic material instance not working?

Umm, without double checking the docs…

You need to iterate though all the objects that have he material and assign this MDI to them or iterate through them and create MDI’s from their materials. Right now you seem be creating an orphaned MDI, so any changes to it have no relationship to the objects in the scene which have instances of their own materials.

Thank you for the response .
Is there any other way that I can change a parameter of a material instance and have all the objects that already have the same material applied, be changed. Just like when working in the editor.
I have a lot of static meshes in the scene, and each static mesh has 3-4 material slots, and the instanced material is not always in the same slot. So this will be a nightmare to set up for each static mesh, if I have to iterate through them all.
