Texturge — Glyph Processing & Text Animation Engine

🎞 Video | 📘 Docs | 💬 Discord

Is your dialogue text just... appearing? Flat. Instant. Lifeless.

Texturge brings your UMG text to life. Add a typewriter reveal. Make every character dance in. Switch languages without breaking anything. All from simple inline tags. No C++. No per-text-block setup.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✨ WHAT YOU CAN DO

📝 Typewriter that actually works

  • Rich text tags survive the reveal. Every time. Even when nested three deep. Text wraps smoothly — no jarring word-jumps mid-type.

🎬 9 animation presets, one tag each

  • FadeIn · SlideIn · Scale · Shake · Wave · Bounce · ColorGradient · Rotation · Typewriter

  • Write <anim id="wave">your text</>. Done. Mix with rich text: <anim id="fade">Hello <red>World</></>. Configure all your mappings in one DataAsset — write the tag, move on.

🌏 Actually works with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean

  • CJK text breaks correctly. Emoji don't get cut in half. Fonts switch automatically when you mix languages. Translate your strings — animation tags find their way back to the right position. No competitor does this.

🎛️ Make your own presets

  • Visual editor with timeline and live preview. Drag, adjust, preview. No C++. Compiles to a fast runtime instance.

🔊 Per-character audio

  • Map sounds to specific characters. Add pauses on punctuation. Blueprint-friendly event system.

Texturge Now Supports UE 5.8

Texturge has been updated to support Unreal Engine 5.8 alongside the existing 5.7 LTS version. Both engine versions are maintained on parallel branches, so you can pick whichever fits your project.
If you’re already on 5.8, Texturge is ready to go.

Hey everyone!
The Texturge Beta is on the horizon, and I’ve put together a first-look preview showing what’s coming:

:clapper_board: Watch the Beta Preview: https://youtu.be/w82ZZzdY6-I

Here’s what to expect in Beta:

  • Multi-Layer Glyph Animation Tracks — Stack and blend multiple animation layers with independent curves and blend modes, all editable in the Sequencer timeline.
  • Blueprint-Orchestrated Per-Glyph Control — 21 property channels per glyph. Compose any animation logic through Blueprint variables — no C++ required.
  • Real-Time WYSIWYG Preview — Tweak animations directly in the Designer viewport with instant live feedback.
  • Full UE RichText Ecosystem Support — Pre-parse pipeline handles every native RichText tag, decorator, and component. Tags never break mid-reveal.
  • All UE-Supported Languages Localized — CJK-aware grapheme break iterator, semantic anchor relocation, and full localization across every language UE supports.
  • Native SDF/MSDF Font Rendering — Automatic SDF detection, fully compatible with vector font pipelines.

Stay tuned — it’s landing soon! Would love to hear what excites you most or what you’d like to see in future updates. :rocket:
