The materials
- 
As it is the .abc file (alembic cache), I did UV of the mesh in Maya and created new materials for the weapons in unreal.
 
WEAPON MORPH
- 
This is basically a simulation that is imported from Houdini into unreal.
 - 
This effect is linked to the player animation and triggered as a powered ability for the player(indie game: Rudra)
 


The Houdini to unreal
- 
The simulation is imported from Houdini to unreal and exported as a .abc file (alembic cache)
 - 
Two unique meshes are first converted to volumes with a particle size of 0.005 and then animated through the solver node in Houdini.
 - 
The final result is converted back to polygons.
