How to develop ue4 plugins to simulate the viewpoint in unity 3D?


Unity 3d has two viewpoints, one is game and another isscene. when you move objects in scene you can see changes happened in game in the same time. while the reverse is true. But UE4 doesn't have this function. So I wonder if I can develop a plugin for UE4 to achieve that? does anyone have a clue? enter image description here


Solution

  • Unreal 4: Go to Window -> Viewport 2. Drag the window somewhere and you will have 2 viewports:

    enter image description here

    Press play, only one viewport will display the "gameview" and the other remains as "sceneview" - Moving stuff in the 2nd Viewport will not update the game! But I found this plugin: https://github.com/jackknobel/GameViewportSync

    You can see if that works for you or use it as a reference to get started developing your own plugin.
