Use Art-net

Deer Community ,

As a beginner I have a question, I would like to implement artnet protocole in my project, but I dont know how start.

My objectif is to control lights in the scene with dmx , using the artnet.

I saw a plugin in unity, don’t know if on ue4 a plugin exist , actually i don’t finded.

I know a plugin OSC exist , I try to used it , but it’s not what I need (channel , universe).

The ArtNet code source , is available in C here.

I clearly don’t know how can I use it and implement it.

Someone can help me please ?

Thanks for your attention.

Hello ,

I’m interested about the subject, but I’m stuck too.

People talk to me about static lib or external.
if that inspire you.

I’m stuck , it’s boring …
No one can help me with this feature ?

If you don’t mind using a 3rd party tool, you could use Lightact media server to send Art-Net data to UE4.

There’s a tutorial here:

And you need to install this plugin to make this work:

If you can use OSC plugin,convert with TouchDesigner is simply.

In TouchDesigner, use only 2 node “OSC In” and “DMX Out”.



This is my DMX demo.
