Blueprints for S3 (AWS File Storage & Transfer)
Building a game with cloud-based assets requires a rock-solid bridge between your local storage and the cloud. Blueprints for S3 is a high-performance, Blueprint-native suite that gives you direct access to the most powerful storage tools in the AWS ecosystem.
Whether you're building a custom DLC launcher, an incremental update system, or a global cloud-save feature, this plugin provides the professional-grade file management you need without touching C++.
๐ Key Features
Comprehensive Module Support: Direct Blueprint access to:
S3 & S3Control: Create, manage, and configure buckets and objects.
Transfer Manager: High-level, optimized nodes for uploading and downloading files with progress tracking.
S3Encryption: Ensure your data is secure at rest with industry-standard encryption.
S3Outposts: Support for AWS Outposts for hybrid cloud environments.
Optimized File Transfer: Use the Transfer module to handle large files efficiently. Perfect for downloading DLC, new maps, or high-resolution textures during runtime.
Cloud Save Systems: Easily serialize player data (with the Auto DeSerialize Plugin) and push it to S3 for cross-platform progression.
Incremental Updates: Build your own launcher or in-game updater by checking S3 object metadata and downloading only the files that have changed.
Asynchronous Operations: All uploads and downloads run on background threads, keeping your game's UI and frame rate responsive.
๐ Practical Use Cases
Online Save Games: Securely store player progress in the cloud, allowing them to resume their game on any device.
User-Generated Content (UGC): Let players share levels, character presets, or screenshots by uploading them directly to S3.
Live Content Delivery: Update in-game news, textures, or configuration files without requiring a full game patch.
Photo Mode: Upload high-resolution screenshots to a web-accessible bucket for social sharing.
