From now on, you can finally make beautiful glass, lens, and any other translucent shots directly in Unreal Engine! No more Path Tracing! No need to go to Blender or downgrade to old UE5 branches just to get working caustics!

Caustics work in real time with a 30-second setup and require no preparation or complex setups! Works with your existing objects and materials!

But not all is so good - the method I'm using is basically faking caustics, but on a high level. You still won't get the same quality as true Path Tracing or Blender renders. Consider it more of a middle ground between real caustics and no caustics at all.

This is my first attempt at making plugins, and it might be unstable, have limitations, or crash your projects, so take precautions. But it's completely free and you can try it right now!

Regarding development/updates - I'm not planning on providing any for now, but it will depend on the popularity and problems this plugin will have. So please share it with your friends, tell big UE YouTubers to check this one out, and try it yourselves!
Let's make UE5 renders more beautiful together!!!!!!

Also, please give me feedback under this video rather than by email/other ways, as that's the fastest way to get an answer!

Enjoy the video in full quality - watch in 4k&60 fps!
