Modular Kitchen Builder
Documentation for Modular Kitchen Builder.
Supports Lumen, Ray-tracing, or standard Unreal lighting.
Works in Unreal 4.25 or later or in Unreal 5.
Available on the marketplace.Content:
Corner Modules for L or U shaped layouts
Example Video
A quick video how to create a kitchen with this product.The demo levels uses Lumen dynamic lighting in the Unreal 5 and baked raytraced lighting in the Unreal 4 version.
Having said that, the modular kitchen works in any lighting environment you have chosen for your project. All meshes have light maps . Although Epic Marketplace approval requires small lightmaps. Feel free to increase the sizes a bit if necessary. They work ok as far as I can see.
For compatibility reasons the meshes have Nanite not enabled. You can batch enable Nanite if desired.
Lumen DocumentationBlueprint Actor

The origin is located on the left side of the kitchen cabinets at the back wall.Black numbers identify the ID of the modules. They only appear in the editor and not at run-time, or in game mode.
