[UE4] How to make material make MULTIPLE polygons individually Camera-Face

Optimo · Mar 2020

So i can get a plane to "Face to Camera" but i want to combine my object into one static mesh (its playing a billboard/grid animated texture), this then causes the entire cluster of planes to rotate together and goes all fucky.

I know it must be possible as i've seen tree's with Camera-facing leaf cards that all seem to rotate from their own pivot point. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Any info would be great, thanks

Look into "pivot painter". Or bake the element pivot position into vertex color. and then sample it in the ue shader in your existing setup.
