Dynamic Palette System is a versatile Unreal Engine plugin that lets you manage and switch between multiple Material Parameter Collections (MPCs) seamlessly. Instantly change a scene’s look right in the editor, or smoothly interpolate between palettes in real-time during gameplay. Say goodbye to manual shader tweaks or complex logic—this streamlined approach ensures anyone can enhance their game’s visuals without complicated setups.

What is the Dynamic Palette System?

The Dynamic Palette System is an actor that directly controls and updates your Material Parameter Collections. This lets you easily blend between or instantly switch sets of color and value parameters—like those that define lighting, skies, or surface tints—right inside Unreal Engine. It’s perfect for smoothly transitioning from day to night, adjusting scene hues on the fly, or creating dramatic, real-time visual changes without the need for complex code.

Features:

• Palette Management & Switching: Effortlessly swap between different MPCs. Instantly preview new looks in the editor or dynamically transition in-game for smooth visual changes.

• Easy Integration: Drop in the BP_PaletteSwitcher actor, assign your MPCs, and start blending colors—no complex coding required. Perfect for artists and designers.

• Real-Time Interpolation: Smoothly interpolate between palettes at runtime. Create gradual shifts from bright day scenes to moody dusk atmospheres, or trigger fast, impactful changes for dramatic moments.

• Versatile Use Cases:

  • Set up distinct color schemes for different levels or areas.

  • Implement dynamic visual feedback for player actions, such as taking damage or activating a power-up.

  • Sync palette changes with environmental elements like lighting or particle effects for cohesive, immersive experiences.

Why Use This Plugin?

The Dynamic Palette System is essential for developers aiming to streamline their visual workflow. It’s ideal for any genre or project requiring flexible, on-the-fly color and parameter adjustments. By simplifying the process of changing your game’s visual style, you can focus on creativity and polish rather than technical hurdles.

⚠️ Note: While versatile, certain complex transitions may benefit from additional fine-tuning in your MPCs or Blueprints. We welcome feedback and are committed to continuous improvement.
