Creating Stylized Stone Smoke in UE 5.1 – Tutorial

Hi guys, I’m Ashif Ali and you’re watching CGHOW. In today’s tutorial, I will guide you through creating a stone smoke effect in Unreal Engine 5.1. Let’s dive in!

Key Steps:

• Step 1: Setting up the Niagara System
  • Create a new Niagara system and select the Fountain FX template.
  • Disable gravity and adjust linear velocity for upward motion.
  • Set spawn rate to 20 and randomize particle size (50-40).
• Step 2: Adjusting Particle Life and Size
  • Change particle size to a random value.
  • Set particle life to 2 and use a curve for smooth transitions.
• Step 3: Creating the Material for Smoke
  • Use a Noise Texture for opacity to simulate the dissolve effect.
  • Apply a Radial and Radius Exponent for distortion.
  • Use the Noise Texture to create a random dissolve pattern. Adjust the opacity with the dynamic parameter.
• Step 4: Distorting the Radial Texture
  • Use texture coordinates and noise to distort the radial texture.
  • Add Append Vector to control the distortion on all sides.
• Step 5: Adding Edge Effects
  • Use the Three-Color Blend for edge effects, isolating the green channel for a sharp, defined edge.
  • Adjust edge thickness and radius for more control.
• Step 6: Dissolve and Final Adjustments
  • Use the Subtract and Multiply nodes to control the dissolve effect.
  • Tweak dissolve speed and texture tiling with dynamic parameters.
  • Add color and randomization for a natural feel.
• Step 7: Final Touches
  • Apply final particle settings, including spawn rate, size, velocity, and gravity to finalize the look of the smoke.

Final Results:
You’ll have a dynamic, stylized stone smoke effect that’s great for any scene needing a natural yet dramatic environmental effect.

Tips:

• Ensure the right balance between particle size and life to achieve realistic behavior.
• Experiment with the dissolve speed and opacity settings for different styles of smoke.
• Use dynamic parameters to allow more control over the material during gameplay.
