Basic Splined Mesh Blueprint
https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/basic-splined-mesh-blueprint
This blueprint handles putting meshes along a spline and includes a wide variety of features to save you time on whatever meshes you plan to run along a spline.
The blueprint alone is being given away for FREE because I think this is a necessary tool for everyone due to how complicated Unreal splines can be. But if you can spend the $5, I would really appreciate it and you will get the demo map and assets you see in gallery photos above.
This blueprint system has a lot of the basic functionality that splined mesh systems should have. I made this pack originally for the other product that I sell "The Dynamic Road System." And this was made to make guardrails and sidewalks for that pack. Halfway through making it I found that it wouldn't be too much extra effort to make it so that it is compatible with any meshes. So, I spent 2 months making the most requested features people recommended to me on YouTube and here we are now.
Technical Details
Features:
- Periodic and continuous placement
- Snapping offset spline to another spline (like how a guardrail follows the side of a road. See picture example above)
- Ability to snap meshes to the ground
- Landscape tilt- Ground slope influences the rotation of the mesh sitting on the ground to mimic the slope
- Meshes can be rotated along the spline and deform appropriately
- The mesh can be re-oriented in any direction without needing to fix the mesh rotation through re-importing
- Has basic options to change collision type
- Basic options to offset meshes along the spline
- Allows meshes to be used along the z axis as well for full 3D movement with appropriate twisting options
- Also has the ability to spawn meshes and blueprints to be placed along the spline
