Updated version for UE 5.X?

This plugin could be very useful for UE5 too. Any chance it will get updated?

It's a very light wrapper around opencl api. If you're dealing with that low level world, re-compiling with minor fixes shouldn't be a big hurdle. Atm I have no plans of updating this particular plugin, there isn't enough demand to maintain releases for it.

Was curious at how bad the upgrade path would be for 5.4 and it wasn't too bad. Made a 5.4 release found here: https://github.com/getnamo/OpenCL-Unreal/releases/tag/v0.4.0

NB: blueprint/c++ API is still pretty lacking IMO, this plugin would need modernization to bring e.g. proper image/vector array in/out data flows. Also just caching compiled kernels and only recompiling them when needed would probably be a good baseline. Not likely to keep this up to date further than this release, but should make it easier for you to experiment with it.
