very nice video, congrats! I just don´t know why my grass turns off its material when pulled over Cloner, do you? :)

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

make sure the z location for the cloner is set to 0.01, that should fix the bug. Thanks for watching :)

[@esraxlab]

great work! it's possible to attach cloner into animated charachter? i had been trying but i failed.

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

Hey I will try and make a tutorial on this in the near future!

[@esraxlab]

@@Unreal_KatyaFedak aight, can wait. thank you!

[@SurferXGhost1293]

Hi.. What about if I want to do something like. Annilihation movie.. That infected body.. Can I use this for those ivy.. roots or veins..(I dont know what is that 😅) The assets orientation have to be different?? Thank you

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

I think a Procedural Ivy Generator plugin would work well for the roots and veins. Wish you luck on your journey :)

[@TheCcamera]

Nice! Can this also work at runtime?

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

Im pretty sure

[@yujack5910]

Hello blogger, may I ask what is the difference between the production method in the video and using UE5.4's Motion Design?

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

Hey, not sure what you mean by production method, I know a lot of other 3d software's can achieve effects like this. The UE 5.4 motion design is very new and its exciting to see what it can create.

[@dogipillar]

Can you use these effectors in real time environments? Having it attached to an actor and wherever they go the vegetation appears?

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

Yes, you have to play with the settings a bit, but it can be done. Let me know if you would like to see a tutorial for this?

[@yoyomario]

I can't wait in 5 years when developers won't be able to write code and I will be hard to find a decent "coder-developer". Time to make millions hehehe

[@JJTheDevUE]

Is this an effect that can be done in a game or is it only suited for Videos?

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

I assume you would be able to make a blueprint for the effecter. I haven't made a game yet, so I'm not positive. Thanks for checking out the video.

[@AlanAstle]

Now that the official version of Unreal Engine 5.4 has been released, I checked on the status of Motion Designer and it's still "Experimental" and not "Beta". I really hope Epic commits to adding Motion Design to the permanent list of plugins.

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

its such an awesome plugin! I can't see them abandoning it

[@AlanAstle]

@@Unreal_KatyaFedak Yes, it brings some of the power of Blender's Geometry Nodes to Unreal Engine.

[@SagunManandhar]

Is there a way to clone into animated alembic cached geo ? Pls help

[@pavelavnabov9178]

were you able to get results?
I was able to get alembic to work in cloner (cloner - add - geometry cache), but cloning doesn't happen, I can't manipulate the quantity, one instance appears and that's it. If I copy manually, the copies appear and the animation works

[@SagunManandhar]

@@pavelavnabov9178 I don't know I'll test today and get back

[@pavelavnabov9178]

@@SagunManandhar A small addition. I tried putting geometry cache in blueprint, but no success (maybe it's a good idea, but I'm new to unreal engine and might have done something wrong).
Through other tools (PCG and Trigger Animation with Collision) it is possible to reproduce copies of alembic animations and make them run through a trigger. But I don't give up hope that through the new Cloner tool it is possible to do this task faster and better

[@islandonlinenews]

Would this work in 5.1?

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

nope 5.4 introduced motion design, I definitely recommend upgrading when you can :)

[@user-xe6oj8je7y]

Unfortunately, I have a problem, the animation works fine in the sequencer, but when I render it, even the cloner is not visible, how can I solve this problem? That is, the leaves that I made do not show any animation or just a cloner. Although they are visible in the project and the animation works, nothing is visible on the render.

[@user-xe6oj8je7y]

I will be grateful if you help me

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

@@user-xe6oj8je7y did you apply the effector transform to the sequencer?

[@user-xe6oj8je7y]

@@Unreal_KatyaFedak Yes, I installed the keys and did everything. In the sequencer. And everything seems to work, but there is nothing on the render

[@Unreal_KatyaFedak]

@@user-xe6oj8je7y you made a camera too? do you have any thing particular in your render settings? It is strange because I'm able to render it
