Unreal Engine – Niagara Galaxy UE5629
Technical Details
Features:
• 2 Niagara Blueprint Systems, one for the Galaxy particles and the other for the Clouds. Both have user exposed parameters to control different parts of the system (point light intensity, radius, clouds drag, stars drag).
• 10 Example Niagara Systems to show different looks that can be achieved.
• Black Hole at the centre of the galaxy.
• Sky sphere around the scene, includes a star map texture.
• Runs at 120+fps on an RTX 2080 Ti, I expect it to run at 30 or less on a GTX 1060.

Important/Additional Notes: The Blueprint system is driven by 2 Blueprints, BP_Galaxy controls all the Galaxy particles and BP_Clouds controls the cloud disc along the galaxy vortex. Both assets need to be placed inside the scene at the same location.
Each has a Static Mesh parameter which needs to have the same Asset to work properly (SM_Galaxy_xxx).
I have provided 12 different textures of Galaxies. If you need to change the colour of the Galaxy you only need to replace the Material Instance inside of the BP_Galaxy Blueprint. You can also use your own textures on a duplicate material instance.
