Animating Billboards Blueprint

Unreal Marketplace Link: Click here

This pack contains a single blueprint. It holds the logic for setting up a scaleable billboard where the borders automatically scale with the blueprint itself. You can place lights on the surface, a support, and choose between 18 different ways to animate your billboard transitions. You can control up, down, left or right transitions, as well a center and 'none' (which is custom for each type). There are 3 types of animations, Fade, Masks and Panning. These 3 combined with the 6 previous types are 18 different animation variations. You can further control this by setting up the timing of the transition itself, the delay until the next transition starts, the ability to add lights to the surface which can have their colors change as the textures swap. It is set up to use a custom mesh if you need the option.

This is perfect for billboards, animated wall pictures, character wanted screens that change over time, flashing warning signs, or panning stock market prices. There's quite a few things you can do with this single blueprint.

This is a short clip showing the different animation options you have. The directions, and if it's fading masking or panning.

This is a short clip showing the effects the Mask has on your transition.

This is a short clip showing the timing of the animations. You can ease them in and out, or control it with a linear animation. There is a value to control the transition time, as well as the delay before transitioning again.

This is a short clip showing the ability to either show your images sequentially, or randomize their order.

This is a short clip showing an example of a scrolling banner around the corner. This one connects to the neighboring screens seamlessly.

This is a short clip showing the lighting animations for the billboards as they change. Each image has a corresponding light value that can be set to a value that best represents your image. This is good for fill light. If you mirror the billboard to the back, the lights mirror as well.
