Unreal Python API guide complete

I have gotten to the end of the main section for what is being taught in the material I found. I am glad to say that I understand more about Unreal engine's Python plugin then I once did. I feel prepared to do more with that i have learned. I was able to figure out the problem I was having last time with the error message. The extra parenthesis section from that last variable was actually getting in the way of a functional outcome:

Once I deleted it the script worked properly and I was able to move forward:

The next step was to have Unreal apply the selected textures to the new material instances as they were created. This first api call applies the the texture to the instance and the second changes its color. There's also a third one that saves the assets so you don't have to keep clicking save:

There's also several examples that described modified versions that can open the material editor for the new instances automatically as well as use a brighter color range for the randomizer and make multiple variations instances for a texture with different colors:

Open editor

brighter colors

Variation instances (This one splits the create_material_instances_for_each_textures() function and add the calls to a new one)

But the best part of this guide is that I now have learned how to connect these scripts to an editor utility widget. I learned a bit about using these widgets from a video series my teacher Chris showed me but now I can reference scripts in the blueprint by copying the file path which makes it so much easier to use:

I want to see how I can keep modifying this to include the other scripts I made in the process of following the guide. But for now this fills me with confidence that i can use my skills to create a new portfolio piece to place on the front of my website. I'm sooo looking forward to having something that can show off my tech art skills.
