Title: Creating a Distance Field Effect in Unreal Engine Niagara – CGHOW Tutorial

Description: Hello everyone! I’m Asif Ali, and welcome to CGHOW! In today’s video, I’ll show you how to create a dynamic distance field effect in Unreal Engine Niagara. This tutorial covers how to make particles snap to and interact with objects in the scene using distance fields, allowing particles to be attracted or repelled by nearby surfaces.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this tutorial:

  • Enabling Distance Fields: Set up Unreal Engine to use distance fields by configuring the project settings.
  • Particle Attraction: Use the “Move to Nearest Distance Field” option to make particles follow and snap to the surfaces of nearby meshes.
  • Creating a Two-Layered Effect: Set up two particle systems with different colors and speeds to create depth and variety.
  • Repelling Particles from Surfaces: Discover the “Avoid Distance Fields Surface” option to make particles move away from objects, adding a repulsion effect.
  • Adjusting Particle Spread and Gravity: Experiment with gravity, velocity, and spawn rates to achieve unique movement patterns.

This technique opens up exciting possibilities for making particles interact with dynamic meshes and adding life to your scenes. Try it out, and explore more complex effects using distance fields!
