4. Go to the β€œUltraDynamicSky/Materials/Weather” folder and drag + drop in the function called β€œDynamic_Landscape_Weather_Effects” into the Master Material where it says to place it


5. Hook up the β€œDynamic_Landscape_Weather_Effects” node inside the Master Material. Then press β€œApplyβ€œ


6. Go to the β€œUltraDynamicSky/Blueprints” folder and drag + drop in the β€œUltra_Dynamic_Weather” Blueprint into the world


7. Now click on the Landscape Actor and open up the Material Instance that is applied to it.
