Description
This is a plugin for Unreal Engine 5 that simplifies the work of importing Tile Maps and Tile Sets made with Tiled. In addition it adds some quality time improvements and fixes to the original system.
This is the complete list of features currently available:
- Import Tiled Tile Maps
- Import Tiled Tile Sets (and textures)
- Auto Reimport feature when modified from Tiled
- Support for Custom Properties for Tile Maps, Tile Sets, Layers and Tiles
- Support for setting up Collisions from Tiled
- Support for Animated Tiles
Note: This tool expects the user to use Tiled as the main Tile Map and Tile Set editor, completely replacing the Unreal Engine Tilemap and Tileset editor. Doing changes such as modifying tiles, layers, collisions and/or dimensions directly into Unreal Engine is not supported and can lead to issues.
