How did your team setup Ui to support controllers? Did you use primarily Slate or UMG or a combination of both for this? I ask because everybody has a different methods for tackling this in Unreal Engine 4 and I’m trying to find a way that’s performant, easy to modify for artists, and not time consuming to implement new Ui elements with.
