I’m new to UE 5.6 so thanks for your patience. I’m following this tutorial on How to Create & Spawn Niagara Particles on Skeletal Meshes. The tutorial uses UE version 5.6, so we’re on the same version. In the tutorial, variables in his material BP are exposed in an instance of the material: Global Scalar and Global Texture parameters under Parameter Groups.
Timestamp 16:01 in the youtube video looks like this:
However, in my instance those parameters are not visible. I’ve re-done the tutorial twice in case I missed a step. I didn’t miss any steps. This is what it looks like on my PC. The Parameter Groups tab is empty.
My material graph looks like this:
Why are my Parameter Groups empty? Thanks for any thoughts!
