New Development begins, Unreal Engine 5 updates released!
All, I’m excited to announce that new development for this plugin has commenced.
The marketplace product has been updated to 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2, but this is only the start.
New Game Templates / Sample Projects
Game templates featuring this plugin will be released soon along the following themes:
1. Paint Game
A game based around splashing paint across levels. This was requested by a user earlier and I thought it would be useful to all users to create a game template along these lines featuring the plugin’s various painting workflows and features.
2. Pixel collisions - Player & AI Navigation
My own game makes extensive use of painted holes on 2D surfaces (like leaves) which both players and AI need to navigate around. I find this to be a very fun and interesting gameplay aspect and felt that a game template around this would inspire users with effective ideas and strategies for using this successfully in your own games.
3. Pixel collisions - Elements of Nature
The idea is to have players paint various elements like Water, Grass, Mud, Swaps, Steam, etc (as examples) on the landscape and have both Players and AI react to these landscape surfaces.
4. Character Creator
A character creator featuring this plugin! Aside from painting, Stamping Text onto character’s clothes is another showcase planned. The goal here is to overcome existing limitations around painting on Cloth and provide workflows that show what is currently possible.
Bugfixes
This is also an opportunity to addess any critical bugs and / or workflow issues.
If you are facing any issues that need fixing, this is a great time to report them.
New features - Requests are welcome
Inspiration and usecases for new features are also welcome at this time.
This plugin was made with the goal of being a one-stop-shop for any kind of runtime mesh painting functionality, so any related usecase that you require would be a great candidate for addition.
That’s it for now, but stay tuned to the youtube channel which will showcase any game templates made using this plugin and other exciting new developments!
