I am struggling trying to enable Chaos fracture in 4.24

enzoravo · December 12, 2019, 1:27am

i’m interested on this too, i have enabled all chaos plugins in the editor, but i didn’t found the chaos icon.

enzoravo · December 16, 2019, 12:51pm

[USER=“3389744”]Prahlad Makwana[/USER] i’m using ue4 4.24, i have already activated the plugins in the plugins menu, but when i restarted the editor i don’t have the fracture editor available in the Modes panel.

do you know why is this happening ?

thank you for your help.

@enzoravo: As [USER=“3389744”]Prahlad Makwana[/USER] already mentioned: Chaos Destruction is currently **only available in a 4.23 source build **as stated on the Epic Games Launcher Unreal Learning Tab - there is no way around that.

Are you serious? Wtf is the point of a feature in an old version of the engine if its not in the new one?!?

enzoravo · February 2, 2020, 3:19pm

i’m still waiting to test the chaos in the 4.24

wait WTF? If chaos can’t be used in 4.24 and Apex Destruction is broken then what the hell am I supposed to do for destructible meshes. ■■■■ epic yall keep adding new features and then not using them every engine version and more ■■■■ keeps breaking. We need an engine stability release. No more new ■■■■ till everything works.

Why are some UE4 devs such whiny, self entitled brats?

Im trying to use Apex Destructible but once I enable the plugin I cant package the project anymore any solution?

Guys I’ve been able to successfully compile and build the engine 4.24.3 with chaos and the Chaos Destruction Demo as well. However whenever I run the demo solution, shows me this error.

Hello, @ghosg

Chaos Fracture 4.24 source code is not available but you can try Chaos Fracture 4.23 :

To enable Chaos Fracture 4.23 please follow these steps:

Step 1:- Download the 4.23 Unreal Engine Source Code from GitHub.
Step 2:- Extract downloaded .ZIP files to your desired location.
**Step 3:- **Inside the Engine/Source folder, open the UE4Editor.Target.cs file in text editor.
Step 4:- Add the following to the UE4Editor.Target.cs file and save:
bCompileChaos = true; 
Step 5:- Your UE4Editor.Target.cs file should look like the following:
public class UE4EditorTarget : TargetRules { public UE4EditorTarget( TargetInfo Target ) : base(Target) { Type = TargetType.Editor; BuildEnvironment = TargetBuildEnvironment.Shared; bBuildAllModules = true; ExtraModuleNames.Add("UE4Game"); bCompileChaos = true; } } 
Step 6:- In the 4.23 root folder, run the Setup batch file, then upon completion, run the GenerateProjectFiles batch file.
Step 7:- Load the project into Visual Studio by double-clicking the UE4.sln, then build the engine from the source code.
**Step 8:- **Create a new project and open it, then enable the following plugins from the Edit > Plugins menu:

Chaos Editor

Chaos Solver

Chaos Niagara

Planar Cut

Editable Mesh

Geometry

Geometry Cache

Field System

**Step 9:- **Restart the Editor.
Note :- When the Editor restarts, you will now have access to the Fracture Editor available within the Modes panel.

I hope above information will be useful for you.
Thank you.

This picture shows that Chaos Destruction System is not only for 4.23 version, it onward from there.
