Control DMX Lighting from Unreal Engine in under 10 Minutes

This is a quick guide on how to setup an Unreal Engine (5.3) project to control external DMX fixtures. I couldn't find a tutorial specifically for this use-case so hopefully this is helpful to others. Thanks for watching!

Hey i have around 140 DMX lights and in some how 50 of them became undefined in UE5.3 when i restart my project.. and go into the DMX patch tool it says undefined. It's so annoying do you experienced this? it's for a pretty large project tho. :)

Great help, thanks . I was wondering if you could make a tutorial with the same concept but using MagicQ chamsys software to control the lighting.

Thanks for watching and great suggestion! I have not tried that yet, but I have seen some other tutorials do that with the chamsys software. I will post a video if I get around to trying that out. Thanks again!

Hi I have problem to connect UE with the dmx controller so the light won't light up. But the light simulation is working just fine, I am not sure what's the problem

Hello, thanks for watching. First thing I would check is if the DMX channel monitor shows activity on the output from unreal engine. I use this in the video around 7:07. This will confirm that your scene is actually transmitting some DMX data out from the engine.
