Today we're checking out the Per-Instance Random node! This node super handy for creating variation in your instanced meshes without incurring extra drawcalls. It can be used for a variety of different things, such as texture variation, colour variation, WPO variation and more!
Enjoy!

To the people who have trouble with the Pivot Point method and the colour not changing despite moving the object around remember that the "frac" method will basically only remove the numbers before the comma of a decimal, leaving you with a number from 0,0 to 0,99999 depending on the coordinate of your object. So if you gridlock the objects movement and only move the object by whole coordinates the frac'ed number will always stay the exact same. If you wanna stay gridlocked you can divide the added together number by an uneven number or a very specific decimal number before adding the frac function to ensure you're always left with a different value. Great tutorial Charlie, you got a sub from me! :D

Man, I should kiss you for your coment, I was going crazy checking every single node too many times. I did it in another unreal project and it worked but didnt know why... Just thank you

@klimaluky 2 года назад

Cool stuff as always Charlie, Thanks! :)) Don't know how use that "Per instance" node,so i little workaroud with per instance parametr :]]

@Fokkusu 2 года назад

huh this looks pretty cool, and also, it should work perfectly on all kinds of instances not just foliage, this gives me some ideas to try with our instanced object system :), instead of using standard textures and stuff I can use masks and then using that I could add some random variation in colors and stuff for example so even if you have idk, 5 potions of the same type, each one looks slightly different, if done correctly if should still look like the same object but each one should have a lil bit of personality. Thanks a lot for the video ^^

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

Yep, would work on any instance for sure :) Glad it's going to come in handy for you!! Thanks as always :)

@kiwanogames 2 года назад

I really appreciated your previous commitment to historical fighting stances! I would love to see more of that stuff and how it's incorporated into the game! Sure, materials are very important, but what is the concept/prototype of your game?

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

I think the DevLog series on this channel should give a rough outline of what the gameplay will be like, but we'll be sharing a lot more info in the coming months about the rest of the game :)

Are you kidding me, i was just wondering how to do that. Will watch tomorrow, thanks !

@henrikrosendalvonessen9344 2 года назад

Hi Charlie. Loving your videos, and I'm learning a lot as a beginner. One thing I can't seem to figure out though, is how to detect when my pawn overlaps the foliage. How do I set this up in the ThirdPersonCharacter blueprint? I've spend a good few hours searching for an answer, but every tutorial I find, the overlap event is inside the actor the player is overlapping, but since this uses static mesh foliage, and not actor foliage, I can't really do that. Any help is greatly appriciated. Thanks again for the great content

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

Hey Henrik! Great question :) You can set the Collision Type inside the Foliage painter tool after you've selected some inside the tool. You can shift-click to select multiple and set the collision for all of them to be the same. If you need to do collision for the foliage itself, have a look through a video I posted a week ago about foliage interaction and that should give you an idea of where to set up the collision logic :) If you need any more help chuck me a message on discord and we'll get it working for you!

@mazfrans9568 Год назад

I tried to connect object pivot point to breakout3component but nothing happen color are still not randomized, have any idea?

@utubepeppz6 2 года назад

Which one is the real Charlie? the friendly waving one or 'the video is over now' Charlie.

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

Maybe neither... Maybe there is no real Charlie!

@carlosrivadulla8903 2 года назад

Do you think material creation ll receive some update for the UE5 final release?

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

If I remember correctly there are already a few quality-of-life updates in UE5, such as being able to add multiple input pins to Add/Multiply and other math nodes. Not to mention the "wireless" re-routing that got added to 4.27 :)

@Jukerlaw 2 года назад

Oh right, but the randomness is only at spawn time right? or it keeps update per frame? But according the result, I guess it's at spawn time.

@PrismaticaDev 2 года назад

Yep, it most likely does it using the Instance Index :)

@ChRoNiC-_Destroy 11 месяцев назад

Can you help me pls, I need to do a random Material like this but with 3 especific materials with no combination.

@JayantChakradhari 3 месяца назад

Here you showed how to random but I'm wanted to know how can i do it manually For example - i have two same meshes and I'm wanted to change one of them colour and other one remains the same, I'm wanted to do it with having one material and material instance Is it even possible ?
