Update - July 2024
Now, Iron Edge products come with comprehensive documentation to provide you with all the information you need about our weapons. This includes usage guidelines, assembly standards, optimization tips, recommendations, and extensive support for every detail!
Unreal Engine 5.3+
To better meet the needs of developers who purchase Iron Edge products and provide a more diverse range of products at better prices and with more optimization, this will be the last update to support versions 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2. Future updates will be released for version 5.3 and above.
Expanding Our Arsenal: From High-Modularity to Traditional Weapons
Iron Edge collections are designed for games like Call of Duty, Escape From Tarkov, DayZ, and others that require high modularity with top-notch quality. We also want to better serve those who seek traditional weapons, such as for games in the style of Counter-Strike, which feature unique weapons without modifications, or for games that only allow attachment modifications and not weapon parts. For this, we recommend using the Magic Merge package, which allows for the merging of SM models with SKs, reducing material slots, and reducing textures. This package has been tested and guarantees excellent results for these cases.
A special thanks to the creator of the Magic Merge package, who was very receptive and added the function for merging static and skeletal meshes at the request of Iron Edge.
We will soon be launching new products—traditional weapons without modularity, for those seeking simpler, less modular weapons with high quality.
New Painting System - From New to Old!
Painting System: Iron Edge's main weapon components now feature smart materials that allow you to paint the Body, Handguard, Pistol Grip, Stock, and Magazine in any color you desire. Additionally, you have the option to add wear and tear effects to the paint.
Camouflage: Similar to the painting system, this feature allows for the customization of a seamless texture or personalized paint, with the option to add wear and tear. For camouflage with seamless texture, the Triplanar function can be used to ensure continuous details.
New and Used: With three dedicated masks for controlling dirt effects, such as dirt particles, dust, and burn marks from shots, another mask for oil stains and fingerprints, and a third for scratches, you can now present weapons as brand new, as if just bought, or as heavily used, war-torn and dirty.

New M4A1-style Handguard and Improvements: A new handguard has been added, and with it, improvements to the sockets and Blueprints for all handguards. We now have sockets that allow for attachments on the bottom, top, and sides, preparing for new accessories like flashlights and lasers, which are still to come.
Collision Improvements
All collisions have been reviewed and improved for more accurate dimensions and simulations, covering both static meshes and skeletal meshes.
Root Skeleton Scale Fix
The root of the weapon model was initially set to 0.75 and adjusted within the blueprint to achieve the correct size. This adjustment ensures compatibility for those creating animations or using the skeletal mesh without relying on the pre-built blueprint system. This scaling issue has been resolved, affecting all models and sockets in the package. Now, all models are standardized to a 1.00 scale, ensuring they are used with the correct size directly in the map.
