ForgeWireX v2.46 is officially available! We're excited to introduce our Unreal Engine Blueprint editor plugin, built for developers who want more control over how their Blueprint graphs look and how their wires are routed.

From custom node styling to hands-on wire editing, ForgeWireX helps make busy graphs easier to follow—without changing your Blueprint gameplay logic.

More than a new look for Blueprints

ForgeWireX brings visual customization and practical editing tools directly into the Unreal Editor, with Quick Settings available while you work.

Seven ways to route your wires

Choose the connection style that fits your graph: Native, Straight Line, Rectangular (90°), Rounded Rectangle (90°), Angled (45° + 90°), Rounded Angled (45° + 90°), or Smart Squared (Beta). Switch styles without changing which Blueprint pins are connected.

Adjust wire paths with movable handles

Refine eligible connections directly in the graph. Move vertical wire sections left or right, move horizontal sections up or down, and use handle grouping and locking to preserve carefully arranged layouts. Reset connected wire segments when you want to start fresh.

Six visual presets and customizable appearance

Pick from six node-appearance presets, then fine-tune the background, grid, nodes, selection and hover effects, and data and execution pin shapes. Save and load your preferred settings for later.

Clearer crossings and faster editing

Choose Angled, Rounded or Rectangular crossing bridges to make wire intersections easier to read. Handy graph shortcuts let you add handles (H), reset connected wires (R), group or ungroup handles (Alt+G / Alt+U) and lock or unlock handles (Alt+L). While dragging a connection, Alt switches between shorter and longer horizontal routing options where supported.

Experimental organization tools

Smart Squared (Beta) experiments with obstacle-aware squared routing. Organize Wires (Beta) offers a one-time organization pass for supported wire layouts. Both are experimental features, so we recommend reviewing the result before saving complex graphs.

See the difference

The same Blueprint logic can be presented in a much more personal, readable way. ForgeWireX focuses on editor presentation and wire arrangement—not changes to game execution.
