Change colour of material instance UE

 

Hello everyone,

I have just began to use the DE version instead of the SE version. I am searching how I can change the colour of a material I cooked in Unreal Engine (so change the colour inside of aximmetry).
I can change the colour of a material that i created, but I can't get it to work on a material instance in the virtual set that i bought.

Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you can change a material's color, but you can not change a material instance's color, then it is probably because the material instance is inheriting the color from a material.
You probably have to change the material instance color in the material editor. And after that, the blueprint can also change it.
More on material instances: https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/RenderingAndGraphics/Materials/MaterialInstances/

Warmest regards,
