Unreal Engine 5
Modular Vehicle System | One Base, Any Car - Game-Ready Vehicle System in UE5 | Part 11
Create a shared skeleton and base Chaos Vehicle Blueprint so multiple cars can use the same system.
About this tutorial
In this tutorial, we turn our single-car setup into a modular vehicle system in Unreal Engine 5. We build one shared base โ one skeleton, one base Chaos Vehicle Blueprint โ so any new car drops in with just a short setup checklist, no new code, no refactoring.
- Build the shared base skeleton (with the Blender dummy mesh trick for Unreal)
- Create BP_Base_Chaos_Vehicle containing all shared logic
- Add a new vehicle with a simple per-car setup checklist (mesh, physics asset, hand IK, camera, warp point)
- Per-mesh socket overrides for door handles and other geometry-specific points
