Vertex Animation Toolset, crowd rendering

Q1 Wouldnt it make more sense if the Plugin itself determined the texture resolution based on the Vertex Anim Profile? Would be way less trouble for the user? I checked the video and the amount of time spent on entering texture resolution is quite high and feels pretty redundant?

Q2: Would it make sense to keep the data asset in the example content? Ofc this would require to have the Plugin already in there? Which would be convenient if you do not want to copy your Plugin into the engine plugins.

-I’d rather keep the choice of resolution up to the user as there can be a lot of special cases. Also setting the texture resolution is just a 1 minute process you only have to do once per skeletal mesh.

-Are you asking for the Mannequin Vertex Anim Profile that was used to bake the animation of the example content project? Or are you asking if you need to create a Profile and keep it in the example project in order for it to work? Since the binaries are included you just have to grab the “VertexAnimToolset” folder under the “VertexAnimToolset_4-22” folder, and either drop it inside a “Plugins” folder of whatever project you want to use the plugin with, or inside the “…\UE_4.22\Engine\Plugins\Marketplace” folder to have it enabled on all of your engine projects.

Cheers.
