Description
*Update 1.3 adds a Spear, an Axe, a Custom object blueprint, and Collision sounds and Particle Effects.
*Update 1.5 adds New Locomotion Options and a Plasma Sword, along with other minor improvements.
**Please note that UE5 is now supported, but I still recommend using using UE4.27 as it’s more stable and collisions are more precise.
This System gives you realistic, customizable VR swords, with a robust Slicing System that includes advanced settings.
Swords work in a realistic and intuitive way, and the slicing system can slice virtually any custom Static mesh.
It can be used as a template to start your new project, or you can add it to an existing project with minimal effort.
It includes the all the assets and files for the included Example games, “Sausage Samurai” and “Tatami Attack!”
Slicing skeletal meshes is not currently supported.

Steampunk Prop Pack for Gears, Vacuum Tubes, Gauges, Spline pipes, a Compass and more.
