I know it's a long time ago, but for those who are using any Unreal, 4 or 5, this method still works. the only thing you have to pay attention to is the Object Type response. This cloth only collides with World Static, not Dynamic. If your pawn needs to have World Dynamic like mine, you can add a volume trigger to change temporarily your pawn Object Type from dynamic to Static (add Box collision then start a begin and end overlap event on a BP Actor using this cloth skeletal mesh). Tested and it worked. A side note is that if your cloth is too far from the world axis 0,0,0, you should increase your Delta Location x in AddActorWorldSet node to 0.5 (flipflopA) and (flipflopB)-0.5 Your method is great! 4 years later and it still is the most functional method I've seen. Thanks a ton... Again ^^
Why are you so strong? You are the only person I can do in searching the entire google!! Is there a new way to collide with the environment in 2022? You are really amazing!
okay for anyone having problems with this, go to the third person or first person blueprint, select the capsule for the mesh or the character meshes themselves and make sure collision for the capsule or mesh is checked on and block all is selected, should work after doing that.
Great lesson! Thank! Is it possible to make the collision take into account the player's shape (whole body), and not the capsule? For example, an arm or a leg affects the fabric. It would be great!
Collisions with the physics bodies of the skeletal mesh work for a cloth attached to it, but with a different cloth in the level only the root body will be swept against it, so this is not likely to work out of the box. Not entirely sure though, I would have to try it out.
Thank you for your videos! They are always comprehensible and to the point. At the moment I am working on an animation in which a blanket is dragged over an object, but I cannot make it work. The blanket just won´t recognize the object... Do you have any advice, please?
Sorry to bother but I'm just interested why and how the cloth can't interact with the environment anymore with the new chaos physics because my player character interacts perfectly with the cloth and if I copy the player character multiple times in a level and put them as a stationary wall if works great so what I'm getting at is what exactly is element of the player character that makes it able to interact with the cloth and can't it be applied to a normal object?
hello! thanks for the tutorial. i tried it in 4.24 and it worked fine with FPS player, but when I tried it in 4.25 in the VR level, there is no more collision with both the default environment world objects as well as with the VR hand. i've tried switching both the cloth and the objects to BlockAll, adjusting the physics capsule, etc., but nothing seems to work. is there a way for the VR player to interact with the cloth? the cubes that can be picked up by the VR player also do not interact with the cloth. any solution to this? much appreciated :)
@@jsonslim Ah all good, thanks anyways. My issue is that although following all the steps, the cloth simply doesn't collide with anything in the world.

Hi，Thank you very much for your selfless sharing，I encountered a problem，If the collision object is very large, such as a building, the model will pull when the cloth is close.Will you have this phenomenon?
Probably you didn't follow all steps exactly. Or you are using a different setup as mine. Make sure the world static meshes have collision volumes as well, it will work.
@@marcoghislanzoni sorry, this is not working for me, I tried it 10 times - the world static meshes what is that? My TPC collides with everything else... other objects etc. Only can I see how the number of Capsules and planes somewhere?

Cool workaround, but what are the performance implications on moving the cloth back and forth every tick? Also would be great to see a solution for 4.2x
Good question. I did not check in details the performance impact of this technique honestly, but at high level I couldn't notice any significative impact. Unfortunately no solution yet for 4.2x

Enviorment collision of cloth mesh with other actors isnt working for me. Unreal 4.25. Anyone else tried this out? I submitted this as a bug report to epic will post updates I get
There have been tons of changes to the physics code in preparation for Chaos and this has broken some "features"' that were previously available. I am looking forward to the character/environment cloth collision which very likely will be part of Chaos.
Hello! Can you help? I did everything according to your lesson. But I don't end up with a model that becomes a fabric. It remains static, like a simple solid object. Can you tell me what might be wrong? Maybe settings or something else? I use Unreal 4.24.3 Thank you for your attention!
Hi. Thank you for this video, your trick helped me a lot. (And possibly saved my sanity.) If I may, I have a question. I'm trying to create curtains that react realistically to Unreal's Wind Direction Source and objects around it. Your trick has made it so that the curtains no longer phase through walls (thank you so much for that), but for some reason when the "wind" is pressing the cloth against a wall the cloth keeps bouncing and hopping away from the wall. Have you encountered this? Any idea what the cause could be? This has happened before, so I'm sure it's not your trick. I have tried changing the cloth settings and I tried multiple meshes with varying numbers of vertices. I also tested it in 4.20 and 4.23. Thanks again.
Barend Combrink glad it helped you! If I remember correctly there are some settings about how the cloth reacts to the wind. Did you play with them? Also does it happen with any wind level?
@@marcoghislanzoni Thanks for the quick reply. I have played around with the cloth/wind settings, but perhaps I should tone them down even more. The strange thing is that if I add a basic cube or sphere object without scaling them, the bouncing doesn't occur. The moment I scale the cube or place more of them the bouncing starts. (Perhaps the number of vertices connecting at once is too high, but I've tried it with dozens all the way up to thousands, lol.) I actually didn't think about changing the wind direction source settings (because it works sometimes, I guess), so I tested it now. Even on the lowest strength and speed needed to make the cloth connect with the wall (0.04 each) it still bounced, only slower. Changing the direction yields the same results. I'll continue testing the cloth settings, I just need to find the right combination. Thanks again, I really appreciate your help.
@@BarendCombrink I never looked into how the wind force is supposed to interact with the physics. It should be applied to each particle mass composing the cloth, but I am not sure why you would get this bounce effect. Elasticity of the fabric?
First of all, this tutorial is great - Thanks for sharing ur skills with us! I'm having problems with fixing that collision offset in Z axis. Maybe its because i fired up blender 2.8 and cldnt find myself in it, used the dafault metrics and grid split, tho my offset is way bigger then yours in the video. I tried to cheat it in the blueprints by offsetting the skeleton, tho cant separate it. Any Advice?
Whatever you create in Blender, make sure you always apply Rotation and Scale to it before exporting to FBX. Not sure this is your issue, but it is worth checking.
Ok, I fixed it by changing the 0,0,0 position in blender, so the pole(cylinder) is placed on the grid at absolute 0 (My stupid mistake). This stuff is great for interactive animation, just finished merging it with kinect. Have you found some neat features to smooth the ngon collisions?
Thank you for this bro. Very helpul ~ (Newbie here - self learning) I have a character made of 5 different meshes - haven't given any material to the polys (just need to test cloth) - but when i try to do a section selection - it selects all the meshes as if it were one object... how do i work around this?

Inside Blender/Maya/whatever, the cloth is just a mesh parented to a bone of your character. As long as it has a different material applied to it, within Unreal it will be recognized as an own section. Once you have selected it as section, right click and create a cloth asset, assign the skeleton, paint it, assign it back to the section and it should work.

John Voidman for that use case (cloth on character with full body collision) the cloth has to be in the same skeletal mesh as the character. I am pretty sure it doesn't work if they are two separate skeletal meshes, even if you apply this trick. You can export from UE4 as FBX, merge in Blender, then import back.
@@marcoghislanzoni Do u find that collision bodies in PhysicsAsset can't be scaled down cause that's what happened to me.Is that the blender exporting problem？
@@johnvoidman6616 It is probably a bone scaling issue. Before exporting from Blender, make sure you apply Rotation and Scale to your mesh and armature (Object --> Apply --> Rotation and Scale).
I don't think so. But you can try to tweak the collision settings to have the cloth collide with the single physics bodies on the character rather that with the capsule.
True zumy What exactly it is not working? Which error do you get? There is nothing such a demo version of UE4. What you download is always the full version.
UE5 uses Chaos Physics and Chaos Cloth, which uses a completely different solver than the previous NvCloth, so this technique unfortunately doesn't work anymore.

I am even surprised that NvCloth still works with UE5. Or did you recompile the engine to activate PhysX and disable Chaos Physics? In any case, as explained in the description, this technique sometimes works and sometimes doesn't depending on which changes have been made to the physics engine across the various versions.
Has Epic ever reacted to the problems that their damm physics refactoring caused? It is emberassing that unity has better physic simulations than UE.... -_-
@@marcoghislanzoni will chaos feature particle simulations? I know we have niagara sim stages now. But those are still experimental and only collide with scene depth/ distance fields. I really miss stuff like Nvidia Flex or OBI Plugin for Unity in UE

Love people who give a thumb down but don't dare to leave a comment to explain why. I guess they make far better tutorials themselves...
Keep up the amazing work, there are always people who dislike videos for no good reason
Or simply they don't like Blender! ;-) Thanks for your support. :-)
you is super!!!!!
Marco Ghislanzoni but it’s only 6 dislikes
@@peacockgames4364 its crazy man make dislike
Has Epic ever reacted to the problems that their damm physics refactoring caused? It is emberassing that unity has better physic simulations than UE.... -_-
Chaos Physics is supposed to solve that, but we need to be patient for it to become ready for prime time.
@@marcoghislanzoni will chaos feature particle simulations? I know we have niagara sim stages now. But those are still experimental and only collide with scene depth/ distance fields. I really miss stuff like Nvidia Flex or OBI Plugin for Unity in UE
@@goldennboy1989 Yes, Chaos should include particles that can interact physically with the environment. This is usually part of Position Based Dynamics which Chaos is built on.
@@marcoghislanzoni Thanks for the insights :)
i follow step to step and not worked
Which version of UE4 are you using?
@@marcoghislanzoni 4.20.1
@@marcelocosta7893 Then you should be able to reproduce the tutorial exactly as is. What exactly doesn't work?
@@marcoghislanzoni collision of cloth with objects of the world not work
@@marcelocosta7893 Make sure the objects you are trying to collide with have a collision volume (check in the mesh editor) and that their collision profile is set to block all to start with.
yeah, does not work at all.
Thanks a lot!!!!
