Hey! I'm struggling to get the VAT3 Niagara setup to work with a Blueprint actor running the show (based on the documentation).

The documentation shows the Create Dynamic Instance Material node being used with a primitive component as the target. The problem is VAT3 generates a static mesh VS Primitive component, am I missing something, does SM inherit from PC? Here are some screenshots of my variable list:







Note: I'm trying to get this to run in Unreal Engine 5.0.3

I think I just need a more detailed explanation than the docs give or an example project. Are you looping through all static mesh actors and getting component by class etc?

Thanks in advance!
