Unreal Engine 4：如何使用C++动态设置Material

首先，加载Material

方式一：

class UMaterial* ColorMaterial;

ColorMaterial = ConstructorHelpers::FObjectFinderOptional(TEXT("Material'/Game/Materials/ColorMaterial.ColorMaterial'")).Get();

方式二：

class UMaterial* ColorMaterial;

static ConstructorHelpers::FObjectFinder ColorMaterial_Finder(TEXT("Material'/Game/Materials/ColorMaterial.ColorMaterial'"));
if (ColorMaterial_Finder.Object)
{
  ColorMaterial = (UMaterial*)ColorMaterial_Finder.Object;
}

然后，针对component创建动态MaterialInstance

class UStaticMeshComponent* smc;  // 需要在此component上设置Material

class UMaterialInstanceDynamic* ColorMaterial_Inst = UMaterialInstanceDynamic::Create(ColorMaterial, smc);

如果上需要设置一些变量值的话，可通过如下代码设置：

ColorMaterial_Inst->SetVectorParameterValue(FName(TEXT("LightColor")),FLinearColor(0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0);

最后，在component上设置MaterialInstance

smc->SetMaterial(0, ColorMaterial_Inst);
