Hello, I will start by saying that I have no experience in Unreal Engine, although some may suggest I code another simpler game before this to get a feel for the engine, I am currently attempting to do something that none of the templates are based on, and I cannot find any guides on. I am currently attempting to blend 2d and 3d together, I wish for a 2d character to be able to move around within a 3d room, with other objects in the room being 2d. A good example of how I want it to look is the game West of Loathing. In the Paper 2d page, it says that 2d/3d hybrids are possible, but searching for that has not gained me any results. I can attempt to be more specific if needed.
of course it is possible, all you need is a paper character, just pick 2d template or a blank one and do it.
templates don’t mean anything they are just here to give you a small example how it is made.
you can do whatever you want
