Creating a Force Field Material in Unreal Engine 5 - Step-by-Step Breakdown

Here’s a breakdown of creating a scalable force field material in Unreal Engine 5! I’ll cover using local space UVs for precise mapping, setting up scalable parameters, and leveraging distance fields to create a striking 'burn-in' effect as objects interact with the force field. Full material code linked below so you can explore and adapt it to your own projects!

Great video. Thanks for the in depth explanation. A cool addition would be some kind of effect if you shoot at it, for example :)

May I ask, how do you use this copy and paste blueprint?

@@hotsauce7124 sure it uses the clipboard functionality on the computer. It you click copy the code then you go to the material editor and CTRL+V it will paste the code al connected up then you just need to connect it up to the correct outputs
