What I meant by ‘easier in UDK’, that version of the Unreal Engine had gravity manipulation programmed in as part of the Physics Volume. UE4 does not because it is a completely physics based engine. If you aren’t yet familiar with blueprints I would suggest going through some of the tutorials we have available on our Wiki. > **[A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/a-new-community-hosted-unreal-engine-wiki/141494)** > > After over a year in maintenance mode, the official Unreal Engine Wiki is now permanently offline.

With that said, changing gravity in UE4 is a bit complex. I will continue to search for more info to help you figure out how to set this up. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/how-do-i-use-a-physics-volume-to-shift-gravity/290360)._
