Anti-planetary Cannon - Unreal Engine 5

After picking up Houdini earlier this year I wanted to incorporate various workflows I learned with it in a single UE5 effect. Mainly Vertex animation textures, Mesh Generation, Motion Vectors and DOP's

Thanks to my buddies for the helpful tips and feedback, you know who you are <3

Outer Wilds is the greatest game of all time

Thanks to the following Pixabay and Freesound users for their sounds:

Houdini modeling and setup for RBD preperations - split from unanimated parts to reduce pixel usage in the Vertex Animation Texture

Houdini Mesh generation: - Polar coordinate mesh to avoid calculating polar coordinates on a shader level, as well as reuse of common shaders - Soulercoaster mesh to allow for more tight complex motion as opposed to particles

Houdini Mesh generation:

- Soulercoaster mesh to allow for more tight complex motion as opposed to particles

- Cutout mesh for Flipbook to avoid additional Per-pixel alpha and depth operations, Depth required to draw behind Cloud volumetrics.
- Motionvector Rigidbody Flipbook + (undistorted) Shockwave mask
