Objects (Textures) in a path to an array?

Development Discussion Blueprint Visual Scripting
#1

Hi, I’ve tried my luck on the answer hub but have had no answer yet.

I want to be able to collect assets from a folder into an array which I can then use to switch textures on a material.

My Textures folder has about 80 images in - I could painstakingly add each one to an array using defaults, but someone tell me there must be an easier way? - Surely this is what OOP is all about?

I also have a folder full of static meshes which i’d like to be able to do something similar with.

I’d be very grateful if someone cleverer than me could help out here.

FYI - i’ve tried making an Object Library but (a) it still won’t populate itself, and (b) if it could, I can’t see how to copy the elements inside it to an array.

Thanks Very Much in advance.

Dan.

I dont think this is possible right now without maybe someone writing a plugin that does something like this.

As far as i know, ryanjon is correct. I thought i saw a video from Rama showing and browsing folders in UE4 so he might be able to help you.

Thanks, I’ll have to think of some other way of doing it. It can be done in code I’m sure.
