Highlight Object On Hover In Unreal

This is a special request tutorial from one of the patrons.
The objective is to implement an item inspection system. as the first part, highlighting an object when hovering the mouse over it. So that the player would know that this object is interact-able.

Thanks a lot for the video, it was exactly what I was looking for. A little feedback tho: You would have made this 16 min video into a 2-3 minute video. Have a script that gets to the point as fast as possible and follow it. Good luck!

This works good on curved objects, but is really bad looking if the object has any larger flat sides.

Great tutorial as always, very informative, keep making more like these. However, you are the only one whose videos I have to run speed 2 in youtube :). Just to get it on the normal speed of others :)

A question: Why add a color that inputs into the Fresnel's BaseReflectFraction?

Thank you for all of the amazing tutorials, you're the reason I got into Unreal Engine 4 and Game Development!! I'm following your Open World Tutorial, but can you add a Skill Tree or a Level Up System to it? It would be really awesome.

Amazing tutorial as always, I am working on a Grand Strategy game with many provinces on the map. Do you think this is a good way to highlight provinces in-game or would you use a different approach?

How would you do this but add that the Camera (or character collider) has to be within a range? I have it figured out but the collider comes from the object not the actor

[Greenman]

oh wow this is so easy compared to using post processing materials lol

Great tutorial---I love what you're doing on YouTube for the community.

I've always heard Fresnel pronounced more like "frah-NELL", which makes sense given that it's the name of a French scientist. Curiously, Wikipedia allows for "FREZ-nel" as you have said it, but I've never heard that one before. Of course, I'm neither a physicist nor a francophone, but it did surprise me.

Ok, this is nice, but it will not work for Cube or other sharp-shaped objects. (UE 4.26)

Hi! Thanks alot for this tutorial, great work. I'm an unreal newbie and I learned alot from this video. One question: how can I add more selectable items in the same InspectableBP like when I select something else besides the trophy?
