= Overview = Welcome to **Mutable**! [[ https://mutable.games/ | Mutable ]] is a middleware to create character customization systems for games and other applications using Unreal Engine 4. At development time you can create objects and decide how they can be modified inside your project. Then Mutable builds instances of these objects at runtime based on options selected by the user or by your application. With Mutable you can clip and merge meshes, morph them, change texture colours, project images, and more. Mutable focuses on building these objects at runtime at the maximum performance, while giving your artists all the flexibility they need. This middleware is built from the experience of developing character customisation systems for games like PUBG (PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds), KUF2 (Kingdom Under Fire 2), or All Points Bulletin Reloaded (APB). The most important starting point to learn about mutable is the documentation [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/ | Table of Contents ]]. We recommend you to also read the [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/faq/ | Frequently Asked Questions ]].

= Overview = Welcome to **Mutable**! [[ https://mutable.games/ | Mutable ]] is a middleware to create character customization systems for games and other applications using Unreal Engine 4 and 5. At development time you can create objects and decide how they can be modified inside your project. Then Mutable builds instances of these objects at runtime based on options selected by the user or by your application. With Mutable you can clip and merge meshes, morph them, change texture colours, project images, and more. Mutable focuses on building these objects at runtime at the maximum performance, while giving your artists all the flexibility they need. This middleware is built from the experience of developing character customisation systems for games like PUBG (PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds), KUF2 (Kingdom Under Fire 2), or All Points Bulletin Reloaded (APB). The most important starting point to learn about mutable is the documentation [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/ | Table of Contents ]]. We recommend you to also read the [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/faq/ | Frequently Asked Questions ]]. When you are ready, you can follow the [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/getting-started/step-by-step | Step-by-step Guide ]] to set it up and get it working in a project. = Licensing = Mutable for Unreal Engine 4 can be licensed directly from Anticto. It is offered under several [[ https://mutable.games/mutable-licensing/ | different licenses ]] to try to cover all needs: * Learning * Indie studio * Per-project per-platform license * Studio-wide license, with an unlimited number of projects and platforms It is not allowed to ship any product with Mutable or containing Mutable-created assets unless one of the licenses above is obtained. Don't hesitate to [[ https://mutable.games/contact/ | contact us ]] if you need more information. = Demos === Starter Evaluation Version === A limited non commercial version of mutable is provided only for evaluation or learning purposes. You can download the latest demos ready to run here:If don't have an account, please [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/getting-started/evaluation/ | follow these steps ]] to grant you access to the Evaluation version of Mutable. | DemoThe latest release can be found here: | Unreal | Version | Last update | Platforms | | |----------|-------|----------|---------|-----| -------| | Cyborg | [[./changelog/1.1|1.1]] | 21th September 2020 | [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/download-windows/ | Windows ]] | | Village | [[./changelog/1.1|1.1]] | 21th September 2020 | [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/download-windows/ |4.27 | [[./changelog/1.4.5|1.4.5]] Eval | 7th October 2021 | [[ mutable/unreal-engine-4/download-windows-lite/ | Windows]] | The source code and data for these demos is available with each released version of the pluginEach platform release has several files, including: * The plugin zip : It contains the source and binaries of the Mutable plugin.
