I really want to use the animToTexure plugin for my game. it has been around for years but is still tagged “experimental”. Does it mean that if i shipp a working game that has animation created by the plugins, Somehow those animation can “break” or not work anymore? what are the risks?

It means that you might ship your game, and later need to update, but then the plugin either won’t work with your engine version or is no longer available.

So, everything is probably fine, until you need to update.

But what if I just stay with the current version of unreal engine? and any updates i make for the game, will still be in this version? is there still danger?

Then it’s ok. But there’s a great temptation to update the engine. So you’ll need to keep two copies.
