Description
Welcome to your unreal engine 5 one course solution for Niagara VFX, in this course ,you are gonna learn how to create different types of VFX like Portal FX, Rain FX, Projectile FX, Energy Strike, character disintegration, and much much more. And weâ€™ll start from scratch.

In the first section, you are going to learn all the basic stuff that you need to know about Niagara for creating different VFX by creating dandelion FX and flame thrower. We are first going to cover the different emitter stages inside of Niagara, then start using the sprite renderer to help us to get more familiar with different Niagara modules.

With all the knowledge and skills we have, in the second section, we are going to create different types of VFX like portal FX, hit impact FX, butterfly FX, meteor attack, laser attack, energy strike, and projectile FX like blade slash and flying sword. Weâ€™ll begin with the portal FX and start modifying our master materials created in the last section to support more VFX features. Then, weâ€™ll use blueprint to create a VFX spawner and use it to spawn this hit impact surface and hit impact body FX. After that, weâ€™ll discuss the 3 most important states a VFX must have in order for it to be complete by creating this meteor attack. After that, weâ€™ll go into blender and create a projectile mesh for our Niagara and use blueprint to help us spawn blade slash and flying sword.

In the third section, youâ€™ll learn how to create follow the leader FX, rain FX, waterfall FX, different dissolving effect for texture, static mesh and skeletal mesh. Weâ€™ll start with all the basic concepts that you must know for creating a custom Niagara module, then with the knowledge on Niagara parameter, namespaces, weâ€™ll create this follow the leader FX. Then with a little bit of vector math and some calculation in our own custom modules, weâ€™re going to create a more advanced version of it. Then, with all weâ€™ve learned, weâ€™ll look into how to create rain FX, waterfall FX andÂ dissolving FX for texture, static mesh and combine them with distance field to help us create dynamic character disintegration.

This is going to be the most comprehensive Niagara VFX course that you'll ever find online, and after finishing it, you should be able to create any type of VFX that you like on your own.
Who this course is for:
Learners who would like to learn how to use Niagara to create VFX in Uneal Engine 5

When I started my career as a technical artist, I always wanted to make a difference in doing what I did, which is better helping my co-workers at improving their work effiency in Unreal. Thanks to my teaching career before this, I was able to convey difficult concepts in simple terms and doable proccess to anyone who is listening, and I gained so much from it. After knowing I want to become an online instructor, my friends around me often ask, "What kind of instructor do you want to be?"In my opinion, I always believe that no new stuff is impossible to do if you have a good instructor who can guide you through every step of it. With the correct step by step approach, anyone can master the thing they want, even in Unreal. That's the kind of instrcutor I want to be.
