Is there any way to disable Chaos in UE5?

Hello. I’m someone who is still working with Unreal Engine 4 even though quite some time has passed since the release of Unreal Engine 5.

I enjoy purchasing and using assets from the marketplace, but I’m starting to encounter issues. As I mentioned earlier, many of the newly released assets no longer support Unreal Engine 4, given that Unreal Engine 5 has been out for a while. Most creators are willing to accommodate this if I request it, but there are also cases where they simply ignore the request.

Therefore, I am considering transitioning to Unreal Engine 5, but it still feels too heavy. Even if I set the values to match Unreal Engine 4, I still can’t achieve the performance I want due to changes in the Physics Engine.

I, too, would like to use the latest technologies in Unreal Engine 5, but I ultimately gave up due to these performance issues.

Is there a way to use PhysicsX instead of Chaos in UE5?

Thank you for reading my post.
