[@driftingpotato]

good content! I was trying this on a slope surface and noticed "Project Onto Surface" needs to be enabled for the Spline Sampler. Otherwise, the points will only be horizontal

[@azielarts]

Nice! Thanks for pointing that out!

[@chaddixmalchow4143]

life saving comment right here, thank you!!

[@gh0stcloud499]

this works, but doesn't seem to take into account if there are parts inside the spline that are higher than the spline's bounding points. I think in scenarios like that you need to use the standard PCG box, and add exclusion zones manually

[@ashishrawat5049]

ohhh Man !!! You are a life saver, thanks for sharing that note.

[@tehf00n]

I always forget how simple PCG is until I need a refresher. Thanks.

[@_Rodders_]

I like your tutorials. You clearly know what you're doing and know how to explain things to actually teach how something works. Most UE5 tutorials are just: Click here, type this, drag here, drag that, okay done *plays lofi outro music*.

Thank you so much for this! I'm new to Unreal Engine 5. I already made a forest for my lands and was looking how to create towns/roads/ext and this helped tremendously.

[@Boschie143]

This was super helpful, thank you! I'm using splines and PCG to generate vineyards in our Architectural projects. The PCG populates a custom vineyard blueprint actor that I put together. I never knew I could use the modeling tab for the splines, and the road helped a lot

[@azielarts]

Wow awesome!! That is a perfect application. Yes totally that spline tool saved me so much time. It was really unwealdy making through blueprints just to use as a mask. Sounds like a fun project 👍

[@MakeMine3D]

Than you for explaining why you made each choice and giving at least a small explanation for it. Most people just tell you to "do 'this' and then 'do this'" without explaining the reasons for using a specific tool, node, etc. Such lack of information defeats the purpose of tutorials (unless it's for more advanced viewers). Amazing video tutorial; thank you for doing it so well for those of us who enjoy learning.

[@JOEFRAUST]

I completely agree, sometimes when I watch tutorials some information seems to be missing!

[@lostmonkvfx]

the spline tip in the modelling tool is great and useful tip, really hats off

[@azielarts]

I totally agree. The spline thing is so useful. I feel like some of these new modeling tools are new and I don't see them mentioned anywhere.

[@ewsdsdffdasasdasdasd9714]

I wanted to know more about PCG but was extremly anxious on watching a 16min video telling me how to open/file a new scene or right click and other beginner stuffs that i hate in tutorial video. This video went straight to the point and is absolutely awesome, 5 stars ! Good job you got a new subscriber

[@azielarts]

Yo!! Glad it was helpful. Yeah I agree. I started making these tutorials in the first place cus I felt similarly.

[@theindiegamedude]

Great content! I'm now seeing how easy it can be to use the PCG tools to create many different landscapes after watching this short/concise video. The town example is a great starting point, to get an idea of the different nodes and capabilities. I'm going to need to reference this video again, and follow along real soon. Hands on is always best to engrain these things. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I love seeing videos like this, and learning new ways to design/develop using various software & engines. You got my subscribe :)

[@brandonjacksoon]

Awesome result and tutorial! Thanks mate!

[@TRABITY]

Great video! Question: how can I do the same with "building blueprint" assets, instead of static meshes? I like to use the BP buildings + seeds so I can have variety in my PCG buildings with static mesh spawner you can add multiple different buildings, as far as I know I can only add 1 building with "spawn actor" for grouped building blueprints..

[@darklordstudios72]

I have lots of building blueprints myself and "I tried creating static meshes with the merge actors tool. This works, but found that the meshes have different origins so some start "in mid air" and others "below ground" so this might not work. Still testing options!

[@TRABITY]

Oh wow, that's a good idea indeed!@@darklordstudios72

[@darklordstudios72]

@TRABITY Okay, I have a much better workflow now. First, I copy the blueprint to a new one. I open the new one and remove any extras I don't want. I save that and drag it into the level. I then use the Merge Actors tool on the selected blueprint actor. I save the mesh with a better name. I then take the new mesh and drag it onto the level. Then using the modeling tools I go to XForm, Edit Pivot, and select Bottom and then Accept the changes and then save the mesh. So far this has worked for every Kitbash model I have done it on and it's AWESOME.

[@TRABITY]

let's connect via IG dm? @ tim.tbty@@darklordstudios72

[@merited8379]

If your buildings (or any asset really) are not facing in the "correct direction", you can go to the modeling tool in Unreal, and with the actor selected, you can change the pivot point (aka the gizmo) quite easily. As a level designer, this helps a ton because then you don't have to send assets back to the artists or import them yourself into Maya or Blender. I'm pretty sure the red arrow on the gizmo is considered the forward-facing direction in Unreal. Edit: I don't know much about PCG, hence why I am here, so what I mentioned above is something I would do prior to putting your assets into the static mesh spawner.

[@azielarts]

Totally that is a good approach as well 👍 usually do that especially to fix the pivot point on things

[@TBDJeremy]

Dude you went above & beyond with this video many thanks!

Thanks so much! I'm working on a medieval city level in a game. I wanted to play around with PCG to see if I can randomize and spawn things faster. This helped immensely! Might have to use this for larger worlds now ❤. How big is your level that you used for this video? Also do you know the best way to make the roads not push the buildings out so far? ( Trying to generate meshes a bit closer for a few of my added roads)

Hi! this tutorial is amazing. Any plan on expanding from this to create a modern city? like having road intersections and have the buildings face the nearest road so the buildings are always parallel to the street? Also possibly only spawn building along those street splines I think would be great!

[@tehwayniac]

Thanks so much for such a great tutorial! How does it work if you are wanting to spawn buildings that are blueprint actors instead of static meshes though? I figured out using the spawn actor node will work but it seems to be different than the static mesh spawner node and can't figure out how to add multiple actors to the one spawner. Tried piping the to_point into multiple different spawn actors which does work but can't figure out how to get them to not spawn atop one another/randomize the buildings. Is it possible to do this?

I'm not seeing the draw spline option, my modelling mode toolset looks slightly different. Any tips on where to look? Am I missing a setting or is this an update thing? using 5.2.1

[@MichielBasson]

Have you figured this out? My toolset also look a bit different.

[@pinaboytoons]

This tutorial is amazing! My issue is that I built my buildings using modular kits from the ue5 marketplace. When I merge the actors and bring them into my pcg level, I try to enable nanite but the triangles do not appear in the nanite visualization.

[@azielarts]

Hmm interesting. That should work to my knowledge, try making a new mesh render node and adding them in. Or cleaning up the graph ( on the PCG volume in the level) and regenerating. It might not be updating for some reason

[@pinaboytoons]

@@azielarts Thanks for the reply! I think the real issue is that the building is actually not nanite enabled even though the checkbox is telling me it is. Because other nanite meshes are showing in the visualizer but the building isn't. I've been trying to figure this out for hours now so I'm at the point where I'm just going to plug the building into the graph and see what happens lol.

[@pinaboytoons]

Also how big is your landscape in the sample video? Mine is set to the default 63 x 63 quads but it's looking too small for my city.

[@ChristianKullmann]

Thank you again for another wonderful video. I have stumbled across a problem that i managed to work around somewhat but that causes many more problems out the back: The spline i created does not really sit on top of my (newly created) landscape, but somewhat lower. And i cannot see what i did wrong as i followed (seemingly at least) step by step. Do you have any idea?

[@ChristianKullmann]

After a bried break i tried something which fixed it: I took each point of the spline, lifted it up and let it stick to the surface using the END-key. I am not sure why that would have been necessary, but now i am back on track. Maybe you have an idea on that anyways? Or someone else maybe?

[@jacklawrence2221]

Hello,nice tut. PCG generating is fast but some of generated stuffs still need to be polished manually for better. Is it possible to bake(instance) the meshes spawned by PCG. For example in your video,remove PCG volume and splines but keep the meshes,foliages,etc.

[@snowbeat936]

After you spawn stuff with a PCG if you select the Clear PCG Link option in the PCG volume it unlinks it from the graph. At this point they are just instanced meshes in the world that you can do whatever you want with, but the PCG graph won't do anything to the meshes any more. Hope this helps

[@tritium0728]

Fantastic video and i was looking forward to following along but ran into an issue that i cant seem to find an answer too anywhere. My modelling mode is way different then what yours looks like and doesn't have the spline tool included with it. Is it a version issue? I'm using UE5.2.

Hello Aziel, I love your tutorial! I have just one question, what if the landscape is not flat? How Can I adapt the spline to the landscape mountains and hills in order to remove some part of the pcg content? Thank you!

[@azielarts]

You should be able to just draw on the landscape mountains or uneven surface. Fun fact, you can also use the hight of the landscape itself as a mask for your PCG graph.

[@marcostefanelli9653]

I was able to paint but the difference did not work.. I tried also with the hight (from the input node) but it did not work :(@@azielarts

IIRC there is a projection node. Using the input node, take the landscape and connect it to the projection node.

Thank you for the tutorial. I'd like to use blueprint actors instead of static meshes when creating the town. I tried using spawn actor instead of static mesh spawner. However, there are almost 15 different actors, and trying to manage their interactions with each other using the difference node has become quite complex. How can I solve this problem?"

[@azielarts]

This is such a great question, and unfortunately one I don't yet have a solution for. I have thought about maybe creating a loop that randomly selects a blueprint from an array, but I have not gotten it to work yet. I will throw together a video as soon as I can figure it out :)

is there a way to make every building face the closest road? Or would I just have to make 2 "towns" With the north town facing the road to the south and vice versa?

[@azielarts]

That is how I would do it probably in the same graph though. Or I would use a if statement to see which side of the curve the point anywhere on and use that to branch it into two sets of points with Different transforms. It is a bit confusing though how to set up, I will try to make a video on it.

Hey Can you make video like this but your main PCG is based on Spline too?

[@Hueventure]

does anyone know how this can be done with multiple actors instead? lets say you had a BP building thats much more interactable, spawn actors doesnt have multiple actor inputs like spawn static mesh does so the actors will spawn on top of themselves and cause issues, so how would you make to to where it doesnt do that? do you need some type of way to separate or array them, or should you have a bounds modifier for her spawn actor node?

Hey! If I had to guess, it would be that you are still debugging a previous node. Try making sure that none of the nodes have the colored dot on them, and then debugging specifically the different node. You can also try plugging a transform points node on the end and seeing if debugging that will show.

Was looking at doing this too. I converted the blueprint to static mech which does work, but as noticed, the pivot points are off. Unfortunately, they are off differently for different buildings. I have to create different spawner branches with transform points for each building to fix that right now, but it really doesn't work so boo.

[@Netryon]

Yes, that is how you create the game if you have the forest, and that's something I see playing cold of duty warzone. It's simple, you have some programing basics and buy this software and use this paint tool. But you must pick your engine, because if you are sticking to this you don't have time for Unity. Some games have view distance or vegetation sliders, so this is an overkill with the trees. But maybe you know this, but not minecraft.
