Description

Pivot Changer is a powerful Unreal Engine editor-only plugin that lets you change pivot points for Static Mesh assets and scene actors instantly, safely, and in bulk all while keeping their world transforms perfectly intact.

Whether you’re working on modular building systems, animation-ready props, doors, weapons, or highly complex levels, Pivot Changer eliminates the need for 3D DCC round-trips and gives you complete control directly inside Unreal Engine.

Actor Mode: Temporary pivot changes for level instances—perfect for testing.
