Awesome UE5 Tools ​

Including open source and non-open source, commercial and non-commercial.

是否awesome，需要根据个人需求来判断。另外，第三方工具选择需要慎重~

Editor Tools ​

  • PropertyHistory Property History allows you to quickly see the history of a property. It works with most objects in Unreal: actors, material nodes, material instances... More advanced properties like arrays, map, sets and instanced structs are also supported.

  • ProjectCleaner Unreal engine plugin for managing all unused assets and empty folders in project.

    • 用于清理未使用的资源和空文件夹 alt text

  • UEToolboxPlugin_Dev This repository contains a development setup for the Gradientspace UEToolbox plugin. The repo for that plugin only contains the plugin code, which must be built inside a UE5 project. So, this repo contains such a project, configured with some test levels and assets that are useful for checking that (eg) building and packaging works properly. Scripts for packaging the plugin for distribution on the FAB marketplace are also included.

    • https://github.com/gradientspace/UEToolboxPlugin Fab版本
    • 作者Ryan Schmidt（Gradientspace）曾在Epic Games工作，是Modeling Mode (建模模式) 和 Geometry Script (几何脚本)，以及DynamicMesh3的核心开发者
    • 该插件从闭源到开源的心路历程，值得细品：https://www.gradientspace.com/tutorials/2025/8/3/uetoolbox-parametric-assets-and-opensource

    • 不幸的是，就我个人的抱负而言，Epic Games Inc 对“运行时工具”方面并不特别感兴趣。虚幻是用于游戏的游戏引擎，让世界上一些最优秀的游戏引擎开发者也关心如何将其打造成一个用于创作工具的实时引擎，这……很有挑战性。我一直主张，这就是我们将在《堡垒之夜》创意版中构建更高级编辑工具的方式，但当 Epic 转向专注于 UEFN（堡垒之夜虚幻编辑器）时，这个方向就夭折了。这就是为什么“如何在运行时使用 ITF”只能在本网站的文章（附件 A和附件 B）中了解，而你很难在 Epic 找到任何人承认这是可能的。

    • 在 Epic 的 Lyra 项目中，我们拼凑了一个系统，用于追踪程序化 DynamicMeshActor (DMA) 与烘焙的 StaticMesh 以及放置的 StaticMeshActors 之间的关系，并且可以“交换” DMA 来代替 StaticMesh 进行实时编辑。但 DMA 必须存在于关卡中——我们的“交换”操作将它们隐藏在地平面以下很远的地方。完全是黑客行为。此外，追踪系统存在于关卡中，不支持多用户编辑，导致了大量问题。在 Epic 内部，我发现另一种方法变得流行起来，即使用纯编辑器的 ChildActorComponent 和程序化生成器，该生成器会烘焙到父 Actor 的 StasticMesh 中。但这只适用于单个实例，并且存在自身的问题。

  • NodeToCode Translate Unreal Engine Blueprints to C++ in seconds. Not hours.

    • Node to Code只需单击一下即可将您的虚幻引擎蓝图图表转换为简洁、结构化的 C++ 代码。无需再花费数小时进行繁琐的手动转换，无需费力解释复杂的视觉逻辑，也无需在庞大的蓝图系统中导航。无论您是要优化性能、改进协作，还是学习/教授虚幻引擎 C++ API，这款由 LLM 提供支持的插件都能帮助您轻松完成蓝图到代码的转换。

  • BPCorruptionFix Sometimes BPs get corrupted, due to Actor Component changes. Their type, their name, declaring them with the wrong properties, saving information about them inside of BPs … there are a number of ways this can happen.

    • 有用，但不常用

  • AdvancedUI 修改并保存UE编辑器的默认缩放比例。 Unreal Engine 5 Advanced UI Editor. it to start working This Unreal Engine Plugin allows setting a custom and persistent UI scale for the editor as well as allowing you to disable Slate UI tooltips in the editor (probably only useful for Linux).
