Learn how to take a Rigid Body simulation from Houdini into your game engine using VAT. Walk through the setup in Houdini then learn how to add Position and Rotation maps to your Real Time Shader and assign the shader to your geometry.

What a fantastic update, so much more powerful!

[@anejaks]

Thanks a ton, you made my day

Thanks, Simon!

What is the best way to export a crowd of 2000plus? Should I use Soft or Rigid body method? The Rigid body has an error "render position and packed pscale"? And the Soft body method is stuck on "reducing polygons" for ages then an error "render_position_and_packed_normal". This is only a test with 20 people. What am I doing wrong??

[@FullMetalHeart_one]

as soon as I set the master material and assign it to my mesh, the mesh itself disappear, and the material instance with the textures doesnt works neither of course. Any idea why?

[@Ooorient]

I got a ques for that In niagara it didn't work as expected,anyone knows why?

[@Captainpanda2080]

Hi Simon, I tried the tutorial with a mesh from blender and it did not work. I could not get the desired destruction simulation.

Does RBD VAT 3.0 work with Niagara?

[@Biru_to]

Can a VAT be made interactive with real-time physics collision inside Unreal? i.e. a player walks through the blast, and some pieces bounce on the player instead of 'just' playing the pre-rendered vertex animation (and going through the player)?

[@user-vl2ib7yh4j]

This is what I'm really curious and trying to figure out. Would you pls share your progress? Hope you've made meaningful progress on this issue

[@Biru_to]

@@user-vl2ib7yh4j 2 years later, and I haven't spend time to figure it out. You might be able to use a vertex shader to do so, not sure!

[@mengenlmn5340]

When I break a 500-meter object and import it into UE, there is a bounding box limiting its movement
Has anyone had this problem？

[@chrispetersen3613]

Try unchecking "create missing collision" on the fbx import options.
