Sample filis no longer avaliable. Would be nice to have it

I am curious is this an actual start from scratch , narrated tutorial or is this more of a speed art , no narration just watching you work type “tutorial”?

Does it work with unreal 4?

Are they animated though, or just a still?

do you know how i can make these clouds move to use them as my sky clouds? im new to unreal :D

great tutorial,tnx

awesome I cant export because the outputs were set up differently from what I had learned and I cant finish the tutorial

do you have part3? thnx in advance

i don't see create lvl instance, what should i do ?

Very helpful video. Thank you mate <3

Why not creating an Actor instead of a packedLevel?

sooo basically level instancing is pointless! Dont use it! Better just call what it is "a blueprint". For example create empty blueprint class "city fountain", then stick all static meshes that build your fountain, add water particles, add sound effects, and code if needed. Then stamp it in your world. @populusart, level instance is used for level "streaming" / world partition! .. for example: You have tropical island with massive cave systems. As player, get inside the cave, you detect it, then "level instantiate" extensive cave system. There is no need to Load cave system while most of the time user spend outside. It's about performance, additional calls / scripts / time-based actions. Of course curling does take care of a lot of things but not everything ;).

awesome!

When I work on heights and Blend Node doesn't work, I always go to Height Blend and it solves the issue. Great video man. Many people sleep on procedural textures.

Nice tip！

Dude, you just can't imagine HOW MUCH your guide helped me out, thank you so much

You can also right click on an asset and use "Asset Actions -> Create Thumbnail". It will capture a little image of your viewport.

How to do the cloud like that? Thats awsome Or is it fog since it on the ground?

Nice! When you package your game for distribution, do you have to include each level instance in the "levels to include"?

dude, you solved my problem! I was just about to buy TrueSky and this free solution did the work. Is there any way to set this up so it doesn't vanish when it's far from camera?

Thanks for the Video! You can also right click a level instance and go to "Asset Actions -> Capture Thumbnail". It will create an image based on what you are currently looking at and apply it to that asset.

i think this would be cool to make a design with this same shape rock and make it a salt lamp with a wood base

do you create assets in blender? Been looking into learning game development but i think i just wanna learn 3d design i am so fascinated by anything related to making games.

Why is gojo randomly in your latest thumbnails?

Are you putting the whole tutorial on skill share. As this has been amazing and i got to the end nothing about adding colour to rocks etc. I’m just starting out on designer. Sorry to ask.

I had this problem with packed level actor that I add a box collider to the blueprint and when I edit the packed level actor like moving a mesh or something the box collider just get destroy. I also try to add it into the level map but I get the same error. Do you have the same problem?

Great video! Just one thing I'd like to point out is that by breaking an instance, you are making it a unique collection of assets, and it will have its own draw call and rendering time. There's a rendering benefit of instances where they are all collectively rendered in a single draw-call, so it's helpful if you make them less obviously identical, and then just re-mix them by adding a mesh on top of the instance, rather than breaking the instance and then subtracting a mesh from the collection. Think of it like tiling textures; you want to strive to hide the really obvious repetitions to begin with and you'll get more benefit from them.

Something I don't understand here is why do this level instancing method over creating blueprint actors with your set pieces in? Doesn't creating a child blueprint actor mean that everything is instanced for the child when it's in the level?

this shi look like fortnite 💀

Are level instance calling, for example 1 cpu call, instead of 10 calls(10 random static barrels)? I mean, do they optimise draw calls

Great job, thanks for this tutorial

Cool man

This is a great video, but one correction that I need to bring up for viewers: The slider labeled "Poly Reduction" can be a bit confusing at first. Bumping it up to 100 does NOT reduce the amount of polygons. It actually increases it. This is dependent on your sides and segments count, but if you want a lower count, you want this slider to be lower, not higher.

I can't seem to find the node link sadly :(

Excellent tutorial!

Great turorial! and I have a idea fix clouddetail. - We used Emissive fix the cloud color. - Than we lost the details, the detail is shadow, the shadow from sun. - So, we can get Sun Direction and Position form `Level blueprint` - Communication in the material, we can get a vector. - Maybe we can mix Emissive with LightVector, make a fake shadow? (system own `LightVector` cannot be use in Volume domain)

Thank you for the great tip!

Thanks so much for going through step by step on this. Extremely helpful.

Why do some people use norrmal blends for adding rocks and stuff and other people use height blend? Which is better?

usefully. thank you!

Thank you so much for a tutorial like this, has searched for days. So many tutorials about unreal engine and substance designer. But rarely about substance designer and Unreal engine together. most tutorials just shows grabbing from the community assets and not directly like this. Life saver.

This is a great tutorial for PBR setups, if I might add; it'd be a good idea to add a red circle or something to track mouse movement, as well as a key-logger to show us the keystrokes you're using for shortcuts.

Great tutorial! Thank you🤩

There is currently a 70% off SALE going on, on Artstation so head over there and see if there is anything for you: www.artstation.com/populus/store

please make more videos like this love the way you explain things

So useful, I hope to see more such excellent videos, thank you for teaching and sharing!

cool explainer thanks

Bro zbrush is like a ocean once you enter into the ocean if you want to survive you need to swim in the ocean otherwise you will gonna die
