Hello. Im trying to use Per Instance Random node inside Material Layer Asset. But it always return black unlike when plugged into Master Material. Anyone know how to fix this?
Hello @SyedHafiz you can do that using te tool foliage, it has color variation, scale, rotation, … a lot of tools and is so easy to use

Thanks for the reply @alberto . Sorry I actually want to use Per Instance Random specifically for this case inside a Material Layer asset. It actually works in UE4 but when I migrate to UE5 the Per Instance Random always return zero.
@SyedHafiz If always returns 0 I think the problem is in the platform, check if you are using some and if you have an error:
For example I just notice mine I disaster 
I actually solved it by using PerInstanceRandom node in the master material of the material layer and connect it to the CustomizedUV output. I then use the TexCoord to access this data inside the material layer itself.

Huge thanks you saved me a lot of time with this post. This solution also works for ‘per instance custom data’ which allows for some pretty cool stuff.
