MultiPacker Redux
MultiPacker Redux
MultiPacker Redux is an Unreal Engine 4 Plugin editor for manipulating Textures and Baking Materials, Channel Packing or Generating SDF Masks; everything is done inside Unreal Engine.
It’s an evolution on the basis on MultiPacker, better global performance 4k, the ability to work with Textures from outside the project.
-Channel Pack: An standard to save memory usage on Textures.
-SDF Masks: With a minimal texture footprint, gets incredible results.
-Bake Material: From a Selected Property Material bake the result to a Texture.
-Atlas Packing: Pack Multiple Textures on a Single Texture.
Why a new Plugin?
The old MultiPacker needed a complete rewrite on the code, many parts of the editor are hard to use; all the changes needed breaks the compatibility, for that reason was needed a new Plugin, not a version update.
The plugin are update to take advantage of the new Unreal Engine functions featured on newer versions (4.23>), Editor Utility Widget, Subsystem, Global Shader…
Blueprints Functions accessible on Editor Utility Widget, it allows everyone to have a Editor specialized by the user.
