Creating 3D Rays with Ribbon Renderer in UE5 | Simple Material Setup
Video Description:
Hi guys, I’m Ashif Ali, and you’re watching CGHOW. In today’s video, I’ll be showing you how to create a dynamic ray effect using the Ribbon Renderer in Unreal Engine 5 with a simple material setup. If you haven’t subscribed to my YouTube channel yet, make sure to subscribe, like, share, and comment. Let’s dive into the tutorial!
Key Points (in bold):
- Material Setup: Creating a basic material with particle color, unlit, and two-sided options.
- Particle Setup: Using the ribbon renderer and adjusting particle size and location for the ray effect.
- Position Adjustments: Implementing random movement using curl noise and forcing the particles to return to the initial position with spring force.
- Ribbon Renderer: Setting up the ribbon renderer for the ray effect and adjusting visibility.
- Facing Mode: Using custom alignment to ensure ribbons face a particular axis (Z-axis).
- Fading and Texturing: Applying texture coordinates and adjusting opacity for fading effects.
- Size and Color Adjustment: Customizing the ray’s width, color, and size to create dynamic 3D rays.
- Final Look: Duplicate for variations in color and height to create different types of rays.

Additional Notes:
- Customizing Materials: The tutorial emphasizes using simple material techniques like opacity and texture manipulation to create clean and effective visual effects.
- Particle Dynamics: Understanding particle forces like curl noise and spring force is crucial for achieving natural motion and control over the ray behavior.
- Ribbon Renderer: Ideal for creating continuous and flowing effects like rays, trails, and energy beams in games or cinematic sequences.
- Practical Tip: Experiment with ribbon width and color to create various effects that suit different types of game themes or environments.
