Unreal Engine System - Cut Grass Effect
An experimental project I released as a Tier 2 reward on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GhislainGir
Unfortunately this is kinda bugged both in 4.27.2 (in standalone only) and 5.0 for now afaik. Custom primitive data for foliage instances is broken! Works great in 4.27.2 in viewport though :D
Quick demo.
Cut grass in front of you and watch it being blast into the air and be consumed :) Yeah it's magic grass. Or smthing :shrug:
Grass growths back in time but you can cut it at any time and the very precise amount of grass will be cut. It's pixel perfect.
You can customize the cut effect. Here's I'm no longer restraining the cut to a cone. Grass is cut radially all around the player.
Woosh!
Increased cut radius.
Project is quite well documented and the cut effect is quite customizable.
