HTML Menus

Use Offline HTML, Javascript and CSS to create an Menu, Web UI, Inventar system or more

You can use this plugin to create menus (Main menu, inventory system ect.) in HTML (javascript, css, Jquery ect.). Menus in HTML offer much more possibilities than in UMG. There is an incredible amount of HTML documentations, examples and support on the internet. For example, you want to create a stylish button? You can simply create a button on this website and you have an individual button for your game. Required Javascript library can be found in the documentation or in the plugin directory.

No special deals. Buy the plugin if you need it. My prices are low all year round. 

Test third-party websites with the integrated UE4 browser before purchase. 

Android and IOS support since UE 4.21 and Plugin Version 1.5. WebGL since UE 4.24.

Version 1.5 tested on: Windows 10, Android 7.1.2 . IOS 12.1.2, macOS Mojave 10.14.2

Limitations: IME (Input Method Editor for Asian characters) does not work. Hard disk access via Javascript/html is not possible. Camera/microphone access is not possible. Web browser widget is always in the foreground on Android/IOS. A bug in the engine causes a black image in a 3D widget on Mobile in certain UE4 versions. Nativization may cause problems and should be disabled in BPs that use this plugin.
