The minimal source code for adding and using a custom compute shader in Unreal Engine 4

CustomComputeShader

A minimal Unreal Engine 4 porject for adding and using a compute shader. I published an article that covers the main steps of the process and I use this project as an example.

Modules:

• CustomComputeShader : The primary game module
• CustomShadersDeclarations : The game module that contains all the code for adding and using the compute shader

Shaders:

• WhiteNoiseCS : A simple compute shader that renders white noise to a texture

UE4 Version

This project was created and tested using UE4.24. Id you're using UE4.25, you'll need to include /Engine/Public/Platform.ush in your shader file in order for it to compile.
