Documentation and Version History

A modern ultra flexible interface for use in architectural or realistic projects. Its modular nature makes it easily adaptable to smaller or larger projects. Tools allow to interact with the scene or modify assets. No programming knowledge is required but basic knowledge about blueprints may be helpful.

Supports most input methods, VR in PC mode with a virtual tablet, and Pixel Streaming with touch controls. Can help you to quickly create a stand-alone packaged application for Windows.

*NEW* Now comes with a 9 unit building example project (MUP/Levels/UI3_MultiUnit_P with and overview scene and all units being accessible. Works with Google Sheets live update (plugin required) or local data tables.

May work on other platforms (Apple, PS, XBOX, Android). This is a blueprint only project. The Demo Project is made for the Windows platform, and some materials don't compile on mobile platforms.
