Is it possible to vertex paint a nanite mesh ? The AI Says so but it doesn't seem to work :sprite_j

Dah yee it is making it up, there is no texture map feature in the blend tool
Sorry about that. You can use Vertex Colors though
Sorry about that. You can use Vertex Colors thoughDYee I think it is being dumb again, it don't work due to the nanite tech/logic :/
Dhmm good question, no experience with that plugin so can't help much. But maybe you can try to find some guide online on how to use that with PCG, our scatter results are the same as PCGs, they are both HISM, so that might be helpful.
Otherwise, you can always bake the Dash scatters down to individual static meshes or convert them to UE foliage painter, if that makes it easier for you

LSo, I did the map using DASH, now I have to send the Project to a client, but they dont have DASH, what should I do?
DHeyo!
Here is a FAQ post about just this: https://docs.polygonflow.io/getting-started/getting-started#sharing-the-level-with-someone-without-dash
Let me know if you have follow-up questions

LThanks @Daniel - COO so the client will get the project like "all static meshes project" or there will some warnings or so? Anyway, gonna download the trial and take and see how it looks.
DNo and yes, if you don't convert anything to static meshes, the things will be the same types as they are for you. But they will behave like static things yes. Besides our own custom procedural meshes (as mentioned in the docs), we only use native UE datatypes, so our scatters for example create HISMs, so the client will see the HISMs, but won't be able to adjust them through Dash, that's all
Maybe they will see some warnings, but nothing to worry about
Ye give the trial a spin, it is fully featured so you can experiment with it, and pass on questions here!

LIn the road tool is there any way to include Street Curbs on the side of the roads? I tried to use the same curve I use to create the road but it doesnt push the road properties.
DNice! And also, you can use the Object Mask and the Inside feature to achieve the same thing!
SI asked this in another channel, but wanted to ask it here. Is there a way to keyframe parameters for certain channels in the Dash scatter tool (or any tool)? For ex. the radial scatter, I'd like to keyframe the X rotation so that each of the scattered objects rotates independently. You can do this by sliding the slider in the Dash toolbar, but I can't seem to find a way to actually keyframe those in the UE sequencer. Appreciate any help!
DHeya, sadly you can't 
It is something we tried to fix before, but it turned out it was really really complex, so had to pause that idea for the time being
It is something we tried to fix before, but it turned out it was really really complex, so had to pause that idea for the time being SAh! That's totally okay. Was just curious and thought I was maybe missing something. Man... that would be a huuuge game changer as it would take over some of the mograph tools that are in C4D.
SThanks for the response though!
DI agree! It is one of our most asked questions so many people are interested 
Too small team and too many important things to do
Too small team and too many important things to do
SUnderstandable!
AWould be cool to be able to grow vines and stuff like that too, but I understand how hard it is to make this kind of thing keyframeable in Unreal.
AQuestion: do path scatter objects have collisions enabled, so that other actors that have physics react to them (bounce...etc.)?
Ahaving some weirdness where the terrain doesn't update until I deselect it.
LAny chance we have acess to the road mesh to make some changes?
LIm on the same boat.
DWelcome back! Probably a few changes since you used it last then, let me know if you need any help!
DIn the Quixel Megascans view in our Content Browser, you will see assets you have downloaded from the Bridge Plugin. If you haven't downloaded any, I don't think it is possible any more. But if you do have stuff downloaded, you may need to check your path settings, more info here: https://docs.polygonflow.io/getting-started/user-interface/content-browser/megascans
We are working on a FAB integration so you can see and use your megascans assets from FAB

DWhat do you mean exactly?
If you bake it to a static mesh you will find in the the project Content Drawer and can adjust it. But the procedural mesh from our Road tool is being produced from our code

THey guys, I need some info on licensing for a studio. I run my freelance license and on most project been fine running on my own system. However I am getting asked to work on more projects with studios with walled networks that donβt allow any internet so would need a different license. Have you got a model that for these scenarios I can share pricing for
RDash is causing my Unreal engine Project to fail on Launch. Is there a solution to this?
Ais there a way to bake this surface scatter in one single object with instanced meshes inside? When I hit "bake", it creates a ton of these single meshes, it would be much nicer to just ditch the parametrization and just have a HISM actor with thousands of instances, kind of like when you bake a PCG. Is that possible?
AYou could delete the tool (from the panel's dots menu on the to right) and basically have a non-editable HISM, which is what the tool outputs by default
Aoh, since you put it that way, i guess as long as I don't try to edit it, there's no computational strain, then, right? I wasn't sure how it works (the problem with this specific one is that i've used the whole landscape to generate on, then masked with proximity to a bunch of curves - so density was up at 5 - so i wanted to get rid of the computational evidence of my ham-handedness :)) now i realize i could've just used a ghost plane to spawn these, then project onto the landscape inside the tool )
Ayeah there's no compute process on the object unless it changes. The change does include subtle things like transform updates and so on though, but even then you can just select the Freeze option in the tool's menu, and that should be it. You can unfreeze it later if you want, the tool won't have any compute cost until then.
DHey Yee it seems right now you can only use already downloaded assets from Bridge, and not download new ones. Regarding FAB, we will ship an integration in Dash 1.8.5 which we are working to push as soon as possible!
If you want, you could grab a beta of Dash 1.8.5 right now: https://docs.polygonflow.io/advanced/release-notes/dash-1.8.5

LQuestion: I created this road yesterday, and today it is "flying" like this:
LI want to edit it, but how do I edit something alread created? If I select the mesh and go to edit nothing happens, If I go to "Create Road" nothing happens...
LActually the same goes to everything created in Dash, how can I come back and edit it? Whatever Dash tool I select in the outliner, doesnt make any difference to Dash Edit, it always show "Road"...
DHey! If you send me your email in a DM I can unlock it for you
the way to do it yourself is through the license manager inside of Dash, but that would have needed to be done before the Windows installation as that impacted the license logic I am afraid

Regarding editing the problem is that you have the new empty road tool pinned in the Tools Panel, so that's why it ain't updating when you select another tool
And btw, you can use the icon on top left left of the tools panel to open an list of all active tools as well

LThe one I have selected is not what appears in edit even without the pin
LAnd all the roads has the same name different from the names on the outline
