Unreal Engine how can we achieve soft Skin Physics in Unreal Engine

Maybe it'll be fixed by the time 5.5 is actually released? hopefully? I mean it's a pretty major issue they've gotta be aware of it, morphs are used a lot for many types of games.

Yeah, I looked into the UE 5.5 Source code and it seems that they have prepared MorphTargets with Nanites.
It's on the TODO list.

Thanks for looking into this! Yeah it'll defo be something they sort out eventually, I think we lose features with nanite most of the time but then slowly gain them back.

Btw reason i've had little to contribute lately is because i've been focusing my efforts in a different direction, i've gotten really lost in trying to make a mechanism to make a dildo work like, well, like we all know we want it to work (it's more complicated than i thought, in theory it's simple, in practice, so many problems) and once i've done that i'll play around a bit with collision, then i'm going to go back to some courses i've left unfinished on

(do recommend, it's a good course) and niagara effects at which point i'll come back and try messing around with

Naturally that'll take a while though, but currently i believe that the spring bone approach demonstrated by darkevilhum will probably be the best fit for my project.

Let me know how you get on with the fake particle soft body stuff if you get around to it. I briefly tried it a while ago on my Daz character and I couldn't eliminate weird spikey vertices all over the body. I may have set it up wrong but I couldn't figure out why it was doing that. It was also very laggy for me.

Conclusion

[SoftSkin]
In my opinion, the Shader approach is the best to go for atm.

[SKM-Nanites]
Not ready to fulfill this task atm.

[Dildos]
Niagara is definitely a technique worth to learn n' share + master. /me luv it
