UE4 Script Tools

UE4 scripts Tools, is a Windows utility that allows the use of prefab, a multi-web search and a multi-clipboard, it aims to facilitate the use of the editor unreal engine.

The prefab management tool allows you to store prefabs create in the world via the clipboard, store as a document it allows the reuse of combinations of actor or node in the editor.

The multiple search tool allows you to search multiple sites in one click.

The last tool that is QuickClip, allows you to have several clipboards via keyboard shortcuts.

Prefab

Using Prefab

win + c : create new prefab

win + v : select and paste prefab to clipboard ( and use ctrl + v for paste in editor )


Prefab uses the clipboard to create a copy in a file, so you can send that copy later in your unreal project.

For the moment the copy in unreal works hard because the editor does not want to create the copy while the clipboard is valid, after a while or if you paste a lot of times later, the editor will take it in account and it will work (editor bug?).

This bug is mostly present for world instance prefabs (actor group).

Once this step passes, it will work normally, I am currently working to get around the problem of validation of the clipboard.


Known bug with child actors, it is possible to work around this problem:

- select an actor in the scene

- then ctrl + v on this actor until components are added in that if

- cancel the action, your clipboard is now valid
