I have Unreal 4.27 chaos preview 3, but I dont think I can use this to make a game because I dont think it is supported, so I cant install any code plugins, is this right ? Is there a way without rebuilding the whole unreal engine to just get 4.27 and chaos working such as I could properly use it ?
It is in beta in UE4. See:
They have released unreal 5 and I think unreal 5.0.0 relies on Chaos physics.
So Im confused, is it that chaos is out of beta in unreal 5, but is in beta in 4.26 and 4.27 ? Or is it that chaos is still in beta in unreal 5 but they released it anyway, or is it that chaos is not used in unreal 5 and it still relies on Physx ?
Chaos is in beta in UE5 as well, but beta in this case doesn’t mean experimental, rather that it isn’t polished yet. So it does comes with some caveats, but is usable. Additionally, I would imagine that it will take you quite a bit of time to build your game, all the while Chaos will receive further polish.
