I will update that shortly. And thanks!

@@officialpaperplanesgame thank you!!! I learned a lot from your videos.

I have not planed that atm. But I would love to do a series just going through all the Hyper stuff. As it is a huge undertaking. There's so much to go through with Hyper.... Lol. I may go through that after we get the landscape set up. I will have a chat with the devs at Hyper here shortly as they are on my games discord. Also, will see if I can get some in depth explanations to some systems I'm not familiar with, to give a better presentation as well.

You can swap all animations in the animation component. These are just placeholders and simplified animations.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Is it that simple? I tried his demo, the first person was just a camera switch. the animations were made for 3rd person and look terrible in first person.

If you can convert to 8 or 16 bit png, you can use it. You can use any png hight maps. You are nor stuck with the brush catalog that comes with errant. You can also use the erosion and foliage maps made with gaea as landscape material weight masks.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Thanks for answering. I was wondering then what's the benefit to use the errant plug-ins instead of the native unreal plug-ins?

@@dvogiatzis the upcoming video will show the power of using errant landscape. Just the shear volume of brushes you can use and mix together to make somthing very realistic in itself is a huge win, withought killing your performance. Then the ability to directly add the weight maps for all your materials per brush is 2nd to none. On top of that biomes directly use the landscape weights and mask to finish off the scene for foliage. Not to mention paths that can interact with the foliage and the landscape brush to add in roads, paths, bridges and a number of other assets that work with the landscape to deform and mask out foliage. With upcoming runtime usability that is voxel like.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Understood! I'm following you videos for sometime now and you got interesting topics. I can't wait for part 3. Thank you for sharing!

@@dvogiatzis thanks for watching, means a lot to me :)

It is possible to spawn bp's how ever I usually use the foliage system from the marketplace and change the instance type to the foliage component to replace hit foliage instances with bp's. Much cheaper.

Little More involved then that but you can use masks to set the hight for a specific hight. I will play with that a little more after the weekend and get back to you.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Sorry you lost me a tad there "you can use makes to set the hight for a specific hight. " Is there a typo ot am I jus ole and thick lol

@@KiwiHawk-downunder-nz masks lol

Thanks, been at it for a long time. It's Finally getting there :)

Absolutely, currently the digging is not implemented, it is tease for next update I believe. I can not give you specific dates on that atm but, you can message me on discord and I can find out. @paperplane

@@officialpaperplanesgame In the teaser video they mention mid/late July for the update. I'm really wanted to wait for it to try 30 day free trial to see if it fit my needs for game im working on. I really want all 3, i wanted to know how long will your discount be available? i don't want to wait for this update and miss out saving money. Also i thought part 2 of this video was going to be sunday at 6:30, i go to the playlist and it still only has this video, but shows 1 hidden :(

@@jasonlong5186 my discount has no end date as of now. You are safe to give it the time you need. We will start setting up landscape in tomorrow after noons video and move on from there.

Not sure if you can with the manager for oceanology but, I am not sure. Have you thought about level streaming or just one large landscape with only the areas you need protruding out of the water?

@@officialpaperplanesgame Meh I tried with sublevel streaming and it is a mess. The water sometimes will freeze and it will disappear. Coz you need to use Infinite Ocean in each sublevel because for each landscape it can take only 1 RVT map. My idea was to use smaller landscapes coz they are way apart.. did not want to make a huge landscape. Event the biggest one ain't so big for me ( sailing game ). I tried the open world map. Maybe a huge level but with level pattrition it can be manageable but it seems for the bounds of the RVT it selects only 1 piece of the landscape o.O one Landscape Streaming Proxy. Well thank you anyway for giving few ideas :D If you have some free time sometimes you can make a video with Oceanology and WP on a big map and see how it goes. Anyway you still working on the survival game? Coz I saw the paper plane teaser. Or you doing 2 projects at once?

@@borisaceski6401 Yeah I think Big landscape is the best way to go. Just leave the underwater with not many assets it shouldn't be bad performance wise.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Only problem is it is a pain to work with... Very laggy to move or sculpt the terrain. Thank you for the help tho! Cheers!

@@officialpaperplanesgame Anyway have you ever run in to a problem with Oceanology when the RVT_Heightmap disapears after you reopen the level? Seems maybe this is on my end coz this happens on every map. Maybe needs fresh install -.- god damn it

Sunday 6.30pm est

That was the older versions. It is now all going into the ErrantWorlds folder.

@@officialpaperplanesgame I need to learn how to do the wee hearts lol

This one is going to be realistic.

It is a new update. I am redoing the rvt video very soon. Next video comes out Wednesday at 6:30 PM EST. Then I will get to the rvt update :).

@@officialpaperplanesgame Choice, thank you so much, I think for me that's tomorrow lol

Thanks bro! Back at you dude.

I will have to play with that. I've tried scene import 8n the past for a few things but it was always hit or miss... For me.

​@@officialpaperplanesgame I was trying to figure out a good Blender to Unreal workflow for a tank. There's some jank with it. I found that I had to set the empty (scene) to movable, and then move all the components to the DefaultSceneRoot. Otherwise, the camera was 100 scale. I also had to switch the Class type since it was set to scene. But I do like the fact that I don't have to move stuff back and forth in Blender, and it's already assembled on import into Unreal.

I will have an updated version on setting up the RVT's coming out sunday/Monday.

That has been changed in the latest release of oceanology. I will have an update video next week for the RVT's.

It does have a mask eating in the rvt, but you have to set the mask to 1. There are 2 mask peramaeters in masking. Then you can use the mask setting in the rvt tab to control how much. I will have some new videos in 5.4 coming out next week starting Sunday night.

@@officialpaperplanesgame awesome will be subscribing to see them!

Let me know how you get along with it. I'd love to see some stuff all of you are doing in the discord!.

I get you. I will make some more videos in ue 5.4 with oceanology before to long. Right now we are doing network tests and getting ready for a closed beta for the Paper Planes game. That has limited my video editing and recording time.

No, it will go black until you add the shared layer info. After adding the material to the level. Go to the top left and change from selection mode to landscape mode. Then go the the paint tab. At the bottom you will see a list of your textures. To the right of each material there's a little plus icon. Click that to add a shared layer ifno file. All should be weighted except the last one in the list (Remove procedural) should be set to non-weighted blend to work. Hope that helps you out! You can find me on discord as PaperPlane if you need more help.

After watching the video, the problem was solved by dividing the sea by area and setting it up using the Oceanology Lake class. However, when the waves are set differently by Gerstner wave figures because they want to divide the area with strong waves and the sea area with weak waves, or want to divide the area with different direction waves. Is there any other way to compensate for the difference in the gap in the problem of the gap?

There is a mask for the underwater post process volumes. You can find them in the example Maps. I haven't set it up yet so I don't know exactly how to do that. There are a lot of people on the oceanology discord that have though.

For sure. Thanks for the kind words.

Yes, the friction will change both of those.

Thank you!

I most use it

Thanks. It is pretty easy to get some amazing stuff. There are a bunch 9f cool things coming up to really take it over the top.

You can reduce the foam in the folding tab. Unless you use a preset. That will override all setting in the tabs.

I am finally, and thank you so much. It's good to be back!

Yes, I will add a setting to disable roll camera rotation.

Thanks!

Good to be back lol. Been rough.....

I will have the next video out Sunday. Surgery took me out for a little bit. But I am back on my feet. Hope to see you Sunday :)

@@officialpaperplanesgameit’s been past sunday and he’s not the only one waiting 👀

@@espada9973 This is true. I am adding a new video right now with a little explanation to the delay. Had a long chat with the devs from errant Photon and we decided to do some exciting stuff. This coming Sunday I will release the 2nd part of the landscape series.

I just found out this is fixed in UE 5.4 😃

Yes, the last updatr made it even easier.

For sure. And thanks. Yes I do want to do another update pretty soon. Kinda waiting for a slow down on updates atm as they have significant changes so it's hard to keep up. I have been a little slow on video updates atm. I have a team working round the clock on my games that are coming up soon. And next week I have surgery. So I will try to get a few videos out before then because I may be unavailable for a few weeks afterwards.

@@officialpaperplanesgame Take it easy, matey, and be well. Plenty of time once recovered from the op 😃
