UE4 Tutorial: Cloth Simulation (4.25)

See how to easily create cloth simulations in Unreal Engine 4.25! In this video we revisit one of my first UE4 tutorials on YouTube and re-create it in the latest version of the engine (at time of recording). Topics covered: Asset handling, cloth painting, simple wind.

Great! How can you make a fabric collision so that the character and other objects in the scene can affect the fabric? A video tutorial about this solution will be great!

To get the wind to work, In Active Cloth Paint, check under Config, Cloth Config, and change the Wind Drag Coefficient and Wind Lift Coefficient to 1. They are both set default to 0.1

This was the first video from you that i watched

[UnrealZii]

Thank you so much friend!!! <3
You are the best!

This is some quality shit i like to watch at 3am

When working with a cape, it seems like if the bone is not directly connected to the root, it ignores the collision

[silvialazarova]

Please make one for cloth collision with enviorment and character, i can't find anywhere a tutorial for that and after 4.21 there are changes in the settings so please make one for 4.23 or something like that.

followed tutorial exactly even downloaded the asset and when i deactivate cloth paint after painting it, nothing happens

[EvanXDev]

Can you make a tutorial on how to simulate cloth physics on a backpack?

[cryptocurrencysscarface]

thank you still trying to figure how to use this in sequencer.

It seems that the wind source is only efficient to these simple "non-skeleton" skeleton mesh. I can reproduce the wind effect on the given asset but it doesn't work on any custom asset with skeleton binded. Maybe I made some wrong steps? I don't know..

[MrSpronkets]

Can you update this again with Chaos Cloth? There's literally no documentation lol.

[daniilknigin]

Could you help please? When i double click on your flag asset the window looks different. There's nothing about skeleton and the pole is separate from the flag. UPD: i just had to manually import it into the project and check skeletal mesh in the import options

[paulgilbert]

Looks perfect for what I'm trying to do but when I import the fbx UE (4.25) doesn't create the physics asset, even though I ticked the box in the import menu? Any help would be brilliant, thanks.

Hello Sir, nice Tutorial, ...but i have a problem, i need wind in my cinemtaic. I pu wind in my level sequence, i add all actors in it nohing changed. even this is not working. can you help me ? jus need a clip with wind for my flagg...thanks Sir !

I tried both versions of this video with Unreal 4.24. There is something wrong with that version of the editor. After upgrading to 4.25, it worked like a charm. If anyone else is having issues, that is likely it. Install the new version, and open a copy of your old file.

Can anyone tell me why this cannot work in Sequencer? What is stopping the technology of the "Game Engine" from enabling cloth simulations in Sequencer/ Is it an Apples and Oranges thing? Many thanks guys!

at 1:06 how did u get those little green value nodes? I cant seem to find them

[emptybruh]

When I make it its invisible from one side since its only a flat plane

[leonaraya]

Nice tutorial. I have a question. Does this effect it's activated only when me push "play button" or it's there any other way to make that the flag allways shows the effect? Grettings!
