Note:

Release of TouchEngine For UE Plugin Samples for UE5.2.1.

Changes:

  • The map was slightly reworked so that you don’t have to run a virtual marathon to go from one sample to the other.
  • Samples are not quite numbered anymore, they are split across sections. You should recognize them easily though and the dedicated sample doc is being updated.
  • All samples were reworked to showcase changes and new features. More details at the following page. 🔗
  • New sample for Parameters usage. Find them in the Pars section.
    • The first sample is limited in scope and just shows how a developer can read / write parameters using the Get or Set TouchEngine Parameter nodes.
    • The second sample is extensively covering all parameters. Not all are supported, but you are encouraged to have a look here.
    • Changing parameters while in debug mode will print the change in the viewport.
    • If you have other ideas or suggestion please feel free to submit or ask.
  • The Palette’s MoviePlayer made it to Unreal, showcasing the great media playback and various codec support of TouchDesigner. Find it in Mixed section → 02.
  • CHOP samples all got reworked, with 3 new variants. Go through the blueprint, they are many comments. Find the in CHOP section.
    • 01 mostly focus on how to read.
    • 02 mostly focus on how to write to CHOP input / build channels.
    • 03 is a mix of it all, it shows you how to be a CHOP ninja and make a CHOP soup. Chop chop chop 🗡️🔪
  • Mixed → 05 - Spring, was fixed so that the bouncing works better whether you are more of a parameter kind of person or a CHOP trigger kind of person.
  • Mixed → 04 - Point Cloud, is now floating in the sky, it looks pretty. 🪂 Change the values and see it transition smoothly. Wooshhhh
  • Documentation rework

This TouchEngine For UE Plugin Samples release requires TouchEngine For UE Plugin v1.2.0

Download the TouchEngine-UE_*.zip, not the source .zip file, and extract it into Plugins folder inside this project's directory structure.

Known issues

  • The Sync sample doesn't behave as expected in the different RHIs. This will be fixed in the next release.
