Content Samples 2.8+

Content samples can be installed directly to a project. They serve as a learning resource or can be a basic template to help get started.

These aren't meant to be production ready out of the box and will likely need integration into your own project.

Installation

From the Logic Driver utility launcher in the level toolbar select Content Samples.

  • This is also available from Tools->Logic Driver.

UtilityLauncher

The content sample window will open. From here select the content sample you want to install. Pressing install will extract the PAK file and migrate it to your project.

Types

Example

Simple examples to demonstrate various features of the plugin. Many of these are based on the old GitHub example project.

Template

This is designed to help get started for a particular use case and can be comprised of more complete systems.

When this is installed the directory structure will be Template and Samples.

  • Template files are meant to be used within your project. They could be base node and state machine classes, components, or basic data structures. These will not require any shared plugin content.
  • Sample files are implementations of the template. They may rely on shared plugin content.

Configuration

The configuration panel will show information about the content including input controls. While you cannot adjust the configuration here, you can change the controls after installing by locating the enhanced input file for the particular content sample.

Show Plugin Content

This will display any plugin content that is being installed to the plugin folder directly. This type of content will be shared meshes and animations used in samples.

Using from GitHub

The content samples won't be available by default if cloning from the repository. The README on the repository contains instructions on how to clone the content submodule.
