Hello all,

Was looking at this tutorial on painting attribute values with vertex color in unity https://www.sidefx.com/tutorials/painting-color-and-instance-scale-unity/ [www.sidefx.com]

and was attempting the same result with unreal. The same setup does not seem to work. Is this supported?

The UE4 plugin does not yet support painting attributes as such. However instance vertex colors on geometry inputs will show up in Houdini.

Hi, is there an ETA on vertex painting support for the UE4 plugin?

Sorry no ETA, but it's definitely on our TODO list.

Hello, does this feature have a date yet? I would really love Vertex Paint Support in Ue4.

Hi,

Unfortunately, still no ETA for Vertex painting in UE4, it is still on our list though, but don't expect anything soon.
We're completely rewriting the plugin at the moment, so this will likely come after v2 is released.
