Subject: Plant Factory plugin for Unreal Engine 5.


DREAMFORGE75 ( ) posted Wed, 28 August 2024 at 9:42 AM · edited Tue, 19 November 2024 at 7:37 AM

Hello,



I just downloaded the latest version of VUE, Plant Factory, and Catalog for Mac OS arm, I went through the installation and folders but I was not able to find the plugin for Unreal Engine 5, can someone please provide information and links to download the plugins?.


Thanks in advance for the assistance.

There is no extra plugin installer, the plugins are part of the normal full installer that you download.

I assume that your Unreal is too new. Here the line from the system requirement in the FAQs from the e-on download page:

  • Unreal Engine 4.26-4.27 & 5.0.-5.1 (5.2 & 5.3 are supported by PlantFactory 2024)

Good morning,


I am on UE v5.3 but the plugins are not present.

Did you install the 2023 or 2024 versions of Vue and Plant Factory? You need the 2024 version for Unreal 5.3

Yes, I had installed Plant Factory 2024, but during the installation process there is no option to select the plugin, also, I had checked the Plant Factory installation folder under applications and just the Cinema 4D plugin is available.

You mean, during the installation process, after you have selected "new installation" earlier, you do not see this window?

This is the only option available during installation, I had tried installing several times, cleaned install deleting previous installations but the Unreal Engine is not available, is there a way to download just en UE plugin or if someone is able to share the plugin?. 


Thanks in advance.

That's Vue, what about Plant factory (which is what you mention in the thread title)?

Although Bentley are giving Vue and pPant Factory away free, that doesn't mean the licenses are no longer required - and that precludes anyone else giving you a copy of any of its files.

Sorry for the mistake, I had sent the wrong screen capture, with VUE and VUE Plant Factory I have the same issue, no UE plugin.

I think this is a Mac thing but will try to find out more.

I have now an answer from an ex developer. It is indeed a Mac thing, the Unreal plugins never were developed for Mac - a glitch in the FAQs requirement section. It needs to be corrected.
