Title: How do I change material properties in PlayMaker?
Post by: alexsecl on March 03, 2024, 05:45:21 PM
Hey, everybody,
My English is not very good, so I couldn't use the forum search properly to find the answer to my question.

Is it possible to change material properties through PlayMaker? For example floating value metallic or smoothness?

with Set Property Action.

Use Set Material (property block) Float.  (Set Material Property Block Float. you can find on the Ecosystem)

Set Material Float will change the value on the material itself.
Set Material Property Block Float will change the value on the 'instance' material (aka on that object only)

The float name will probably be "_Metallic" but you can find the proper names by opening the shaders

Avoid using Get/Set Property Actions
