Hi!
This is in our plans yes

We're slowly building up a bunch of really useful pivot/bounding box scaling and curve fitting utilities for our other tools, and I suspect that a decent modular building solution is only one or two releases away.

im glad to hear that, so that I can lessen multiple tools from other sources.
so far thats the only missing feature for me in using modular mesh walls, a tool to connect the modular meshes and hopefully easy connecting corners as well.
not sure also if you can modify the default cube grid on the modelling tool like make it like a spline but retain its functionality to add boxes x, y and z. hehe

thank you

Hi, does your blend material support VT textures? I'm right that includes texture bombing too?

hi i dont have permissions to post to the faq-forum for some reason, but i want to procedurally spawn desert foliage - am i better using dash or the pcg tools of unreal - it a world partition map. Also i cant seem to find out how to spawn in just certain area - it seems an all or nothing affair?

and having to disconnect my display to use it due to offset is simply dumb

Hi!
You can limit the masking to inside a curve: faqHow to Scatter Inside Curves?

As for PCG vs Dash for large maps, I'd say Dash is fast enough to prototype with that you could probably get a good idea within 1-2 hours.

Adnan ChaumetteOP•8/24/24, 5:14 AM

Dash right now only support atlases from the Quixel Bridge standalone, I'm afraid. The reasoning is that atlases are simply not supported in the Bridge UE plugin at all, and we thought it was important for people to have easy access to them.
For regular assets, Quixel has kind of given up on the Bridge standalone, which is why we didn't think it worth the investment for full content support.

One suggestion to improve tag quality about texture size

as mentioned in above image, the texture size is very important for us to set texture scale in materail

Very true! Noting this down and hopefully we can add that info

Bleak•8/26/24, 7:33 PM

hi what happens when you run outta credits - can you buy a credit pack or do i have to wait! I just imported a large project and have no credits left?

Bleak•8/26/24, 7:34 PM

Also a note i dont know if tagging uses the folders structure its in - but it would be good as my assets are semi organised, but dash seems to ignore folder names?

Mmarvin.nacionales @Daniel - COO hi, how do i use dash camera as pilot camera? it changed to basic ...

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•8/27/24, 10:51 AM

Dash camera is more or less like an normal CineCamera, but it has some more features. After an UE restart you have to select to pilot it again through the Perspective button in top left of UE

Bleak•8/28/24, 11:05 AM

How can i select my road again to edit values? I tried clicking on output mesh and curve but nothing!

Bleak•8/28/24, 11:14 AM

My road is whacked!! ((left side is normal landscape spline, right is dash @Daniel - COO @Adnan - Founder/CEO

Bleak•8/28/24, 11:14 AM

Mmarvin.nacionales is it possible to use dash cine camera as third person camerA?

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•8/29/24, 6:44 AM

Ye it should be, just assign it as any other UE cine camera. If it does not work, let us know

Ddigitalkibble so i noticed that scatter doesn't work with tessellated displacement - is there ...

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•8/29/24, 7:33 AM

Thanks for the suggestion! We will check if it is doable!

Would be really nice to have for sure!

Adnan ChaumetteOP•8/29/24, 10:15 AM

actually it isn't quite practical to do without also tweaking the blueprint of our camera, i'm afraid

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•8/30/24, 12:19 PM

Awesome to hear that!
Not sure if you tried 1.7 or 1.8 Beta, but with the AI assistant and our WIP documentation in 1.8 beta, I would say it is even easier to learn

Thanks for the screenshot! I think the error is caused by the special character in your PC's name

Could you try to uninstall Dash, then install it at a path where you don't have special characters

Trelad•9/2/24, 1:02 AM

Dumb Question as I'm quite new to dash. Terrain vs Landscape. Are there any benefits between one or the other or just different use cases (landscapes can be sculpted as one example)?

JJacob I think in general I can't figure out how to call the properties for the output ...

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•9/2/24, 6:39 AM

Hey @Jacob
What Dash version are you on? The 1.7.1 version from the website or the 1.8 beta?

If you are on 1.7.1, you should select the road and then you will see this icon up in Dash, clicking that will let you re-open the tool. Does this work for you?

JJacob Gotcha! That's exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•9/2/24, 6:41 AM

Awesome! Btw, this goes for more or less all tools, if you select the output/result in the level, you can click that icon to open whatever you have selected

JJacob I knew it was there somewhere, just couldn't seem to figure it out! Thanks again...

DanielFreden (Dash for UE5)•9/2/24, 6:44 AM

Yee our UI has not been perfect, which we aim to fix in 1.8! You can give this page a little check to see what 1.8 UI and workflow will be like https://docs.polygonflow.io/getting-started/user-interface

And if you like to jump on it already, the beta is available here in Discord

Adnan ChaumetteOP•9/3/24, 12:32 PM

Yes it's possible, here's how!

PS: This is using the 1.8 beta.
