[UE5] material nodes, array loop / lookup / filter method?

[Roy_Wierer.Seda145]

I don’t call this finalized but it seems to do the job, made it a long time ago:

float3 Result = float3(0,0,0);

float2 PaletteDimensions;
PaletteTexture.GetDimensions(PaletteDimensions.x, PaletteDimensions.y);

float2 ClosestColorUV = float2(0, 0);
float ClosestDistance = 99999999;

for (int x = 0; x <= PaletteDimensions.x; x++) {
	for (int y = 0; y <= PaletteDimensions.y; y++) {
			const float2 CurrentPaletteUV = float2(x / PaletteDimensions.x, y / PaletteDimensions.y);
		const float3 PaletteSample = Texture2DSample(PaletteTexture, PaletteTextureSampler, CurrentPaletteUV);

		const float Distance = length(Image - PaletteSample);
		if (Distance < ClosestDistance) {
			ClosestDistance = Distance;
			ClosestColorUV = CurrentPaletteUV;
		}
	}
}

Result = Texture2DSample(PaletteTexture, PaletteTextureSampler, ClosestColorUV);

return Result;
