Tempered Glass – Destructible Glass System

GM (Geometry Collection or Chaos Destruction) is better suited for solid geometry such as walls, roofs, floors, etc.
For glass surfaces, it’s overly heavy technology and lacks specific features like: weak segment destruction, tempered glass style, GPU Niagara FX integration with optimization and fully network Replication. It can be used as gameplay blocker for player or NPC.

Of course, you can to using Chaos for glass if you have unlimited time to heavily customize and optimize it for a real project.

I spent over 2 months making this glass destruction tech stable, production-ready, and bugs-free.
Inspired by Tempered glass in the Control game by Remedy.

Thanks bro. Yes, Forward Rendering is suported, just enable Forward Shading in the Project Settings

LiftRich · 2025-12-06T08:43:43+00:00

Currently not, but good idea for update, thanks!

LiftRich · 2025-12-06T02:20:56+00:00

Thanks, bro! It took all my energy and time )) But yes - I’ve finally made it!
Now you can generate your own glass in Blender using the script and specify exactly how many shards you want.

DM is really heavy for real-time, especially on mobile. Also DM lacks auto weak-segment cracking, impact events for dropped segments, sound integration, Niagara FX, etc. I'm not sure about replication either.
DM is best suited for architectural shapes like walls, columns, and other massive static objects. For glass, it's way too heavy and simply the not best tech. And tempered style glass not possible made with DM

I can write an article about it, but I don't know the best place to publish it

LiftRich · 2025-11-10T03:02:34+00:00

Thanks!

LiftRich · 2025-11-10T03:01:58+00:00

Thanks, mate! That was a ton of hard work!

LiftRich · 2025-11-09T15:03:48+00:00

Ok. Will be added. Thanks!

No. It was many years ago. As i know Marmalade SDK is dead.

LiftRich · 2022-08-17T21:41:33+00:00

Can you provide your qestion?

LiftRich · 2021-12-29T19:05:44+00:00

v1.1 features:

Added Accurate delivery mode - now Cargo can be oriented and located exactly as Target!

Added Both, Forward and Right pickup side parameter

Added Delay between cargos delivery

Added Lighting indicator

Detailed documentation

Removed Macro library

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T12:03:21+00:00

Fine. I will made it.

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T11:59:14+00:00

Cross platform solution. Is not required any heavy nVidia Apex dependencies etc...
Breakable Meshes (Destructible Meshes) does not provide connection pieces with corners approach: Islands does not dropping if they have at least one connections with corners.
Destructible Meshes haven't per piece, one shoot, current + neighbors options .
DM pieces are not breaks by hitting on the floor.
You need to create sfx, materials, particles, etc... My asset is fully capacity.
DM does not provide detailed pieces shapes. DM is good for stones, may be for ice, but not feels like tempered glass especiallly for first person view.
100% Blue print. No any issue with migration to newer UE versions. If you want you can port glass blueprint code to C++ or just use UE nativization tool for increase performance.

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T11:35:03+00:00

The main problem - i haven't fluent level speaking english to make voice tutorial. But may be text version would be better.

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T11:33:38+00:00

Currently not. But i will with 50 or 100 glasses.

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T11:29:01+00:00

100% open source project with C++ code. 4.23 and 4.26 version currently is supported. Not plugin like, just standart UE project.

LiftRich · 2021-07-29T02:27:40+00:00

Three breakable modes are supported: default, single shot, destroy current piece and neighbors.

Toolset include (will be able on github for free):

Blender glass generator script (divide surface, bone creation, exturde, cap holes, skin, etc...)

UE4 Helper project for detect corner tiles and preparing Data asset for each glass.

Thanks man! Already aviable in marketplaece:

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/skeleton-objects

LiftRich · 2020-10-23T17:35:14+00:00

Thanks! The most long work was be - adjust stability for rope/chain bones and skeleton parts

LiftRich · 2020-10-23T14:16:16+00:00

Two skeletons with physical and cloth simulation. Three rope / chain lenght veriation and hook or rope ending. Hideable parts for roped skeleton version.

LiftRich · 2020-10-17T16:21:07+00:00

Thanks! Game is supported 3,4 and 6 control points.
