BLUi - Blender Unreal interface

-Unreal Compatible Keymap-

! - This template is in semi-active development ;P please report bugs - !

Current Version: 0.8.7

- Keymap reformat! Streamlining Layout!

- video coming soon

- Tested on 2.93.4 & 3.0a

Features:

- works at 1:1 scale with Unreal Engine for import and export both ways

- reformatted keymap allows easy reading/editing in a text editor, features one operator per line, commented categories and a table of contents!

3D View:

- Unit Scale set to 0.01m, Viewport Clip End set to 1000000

- UE4 style Right Mouse Navigation, hold RMB and use WASD to move around your scene, mousewheel speed up/down

- F key will focus camera on selected object

- Shift+A will open the Add Mesh menu (like Blender's default keymap!)

UI:

- Custom splash screen now displays on startup

- Uses the same font as Unreal Engine: Roboto

- redesigned and renamed Workspaces reflect both Unreal and Blender naming conventions to ease transition

- File Manager Tab helps clean up your .blend, find all the unused textures, materials etc

- Scripting Tab redesigned to help read long single lines in Info panel, and leave lots of space for coding

Node Editor:

- Right Click opens Node Search & Add, more like the BP workflow

- Right Click and Drag lets you pan the view, as in Blueprints

- Comment Box operator lets you select nodes, press C, then immediately type a label and select a color (based on the Node Wrangler NWFrameSelected operator)

- Double Left Click to add Reroute Nodes

- Middle Mouse cuts connections

- S + Left Click adds a Value, M + Left Click adds a Math, U + Left Click adds a Texture Coordinate, T + Left Click adds an Image Texture, and B + Left Click adds a Bump Node

Community Add-ons:

BLUI will now check to see if you have all the right addons at startup, and, if not, it will download and install them before opening the default file.

NOTE:

If you haven't already installed addons like Mr Mannequins Tools, or TexTools,  the first time setup process can take minutes! Blender will appear to be frozen, but it's working away in the background, just wait until the BLUI splashscreen appears!

- Jim Kroovy's Mr Mannequin Tools brings a host of tools for animating with the Mannequin, retargeting animations, dealing with IKs etc, if the simple skeleton isn't enough, something here should do the trick for you!

- BleuRaven's Blender for Unreal addon packs in a ton of helpful functionality for importing/exporting and more!

- Symstract's Modifier List helps you deal with objects that have so many modifiers that you would otherwise get lost in the stack

- SavMartin's TexTools are a great time-saver for dealing with UVs and texturing!

- My RightMouseNavigation addon gives you Unreal Engine style viewport navigation!

-My CommentBox addon gives you a faster workflow for setting up Frame node colors and comments!
