UPDATE 17 Dec 2020: As announced, Epic has just released a 4.26 Chaos version available directly from the Launcher, so it is no longer necessary to compile from source to enable Chaos. If you still want to compile from source, please check my video here: https://youtu.be/gbgBcvHVyq8
Unreal Engine 4.26 includes, among the many other features, the first release of the new Chaos Vehicles. In this step-by-step tutorial I will show you how to prepare, import and configure a car to turn it into a Chaos Vehicle you can drive around in your game.
This tutorial is based on UE 4.26 Preview 1, so things may look a bit different in the official release.
