How I Learned Procedural Generation

[@Lejynn]

All the tutorials I used are in this playlist. Thanks for watching :) kzbin.info/aero/PLrMEhC9sAD1zprGu_lphl3cQSS3uFIXA9

[@DakotaRileyMedia]

Thank you for linking the tutorials you followed in the description. It feels like a lot of KZbin Dev Logs that discuss following a tutorial to do something never provide a links to the tutorials they watched.

[@Lejynn]

@@DakotaRileyMedia Of course! I think that's one of my goals. Instead of just working on a game and only showing people my progress, I want to be a good resource for anyone wanting to learn game dev by providing all the tutorials that I used.

I really like how you describe the learning process you're going through and what resources you're using. Thank you very much for making this.

[@Lejynn]

Thanks, you're very welcome!

[@equu497]

this is an insanely well made video. I've been binging gamedev videos for about 2 weeks now but I think I'm finally ready to actually make the plunge.

[@Lejynn]

You should do it! Game dev is a lot of fun.

[@CommissarChaotic]

I keep trying to plunge but keep forgetting how to swim properly. Right now, I'm just doing whatever which includes Procedural Generation. I just want to see cool custom AI I'll be making fight each other but with like a lot of nuance.

[@cakeu]

this devlog is so much better than your previous one! i learned alot about terrain generation, great video!

[@Lejynn]

Thanks! I really appreciate it. I am glad you learned some stuff from it. It's pretty hard as the creator to tell if I am explaining things well enough. xP

[@UsmanDev]

Awesome devlog dude, I love how its a hybrid between working on your game and you showcasing how you learned it

[@Lejynn]

Thanks dude! I enjoy having the devlogs also be educational so that it provides more value for people wanting to learn too. :D

[@NovaByteGameDev]

I love this, you describe your approach to learning the concepts necessary, reference and credit the KZbinrs and videos/series that allowed you to learn these concepts quickly, point out mistakes and fix them (shows you really pay attention to the videos and what you're taught), and best of all you show the code to make these things work. Honestly very humble, many people keep these solutions to themselves to hold an advantage against competitors. I appreciate your approach :)

[@SingleSapling]

Ayy I am glad u found my grass tutorial helpfull, the project looks amazing

[@Lejynn]

What up Single Sapling games! Your tutorial was clutch.

[@SingleSapling]

@@Lejynn yes just popped up in my recommended. KZbin is doing its thing

[@Lejynn]

[@TylerGreen]

This is excellent! Really nice devlog and the cloud shader looks so cool

[@Lejynn]

Thanks Tyler! I really appreciate it. :)

[@tutmo]

Tyler's right, this IS excellent! I just finished Sebastian's tutorials with Shader Graph using some of your suggestions (thank you!). I have solid colors working, but do you know of a tutorial that blends between textures like Sebastian eventually does in his tutorials? Either way, thanks again for this!

[@kentoken6918]

This video gave so much idea on how to go about making a procedural island and this doesn't only work in Unity but also in Godot...basically any game engine i think. THANK YOU SO MUCH! now i can on go work on my game

[@Lejynn]

You're welcome! I hope it works out well for you in Godot. Once you understand the concept, you can implement procedural generation anywhere. :D

[@PablitoTheChicken]

I am absolutely in love with your devlogs! I am very new to unity and these devlogs really motivate me to start making my own little projects. Keep up these great videos, i can't wait to see how this all will turn out!

[@Lejynn]

You should! I’m finding these small projects are the perfect way to learn game dev. I appreciate the support! :)

[@dev.g4me413]

Incredible, from the presentation to the content. Is a shame is only 5 minutes I could watch so much more. Keep up the good work!!

[@VemorrFrantik]

You've got yourself another sub. I love seeing other beginner indies working on their stuff. I come at it from the art side so there's a lot of confusion when I try to understand how any code works. I'm glad my partner is working on that side and being slightly less confused. Keep up the good work.

[@Lejynn]

Thanks for the sub! Honestly, I wish I had more skills to create things on the art side. What kind of games have you made with your partner?

[@s1s1l1sko]

i dont understand why but for some reason youtube decided to actually recommend for the first time a new youtuber to me and im super happy that its actually a good channel that makes unity videos

[@Lejynn]

The KZbin Algorithm is doing me big favors.

[@ChurryHN]

wicked stuff man, love how you put your own twist on systems you found, i love the procedural generation in rust which has sent me into a bit of the rabbit hole of the subject, I'm wanting to implement it into my own survival style game. Keep it up !

[@Lejynn]

Glad you enjoyed! And I am glad you noticed that although I use a lot of resources to learn, I definitely spend the time to understand it and make the code my own. We both fell down the same rabbit hole. Rust has inspired me to learn these topics as well. Now the next then I want to recreate from Rust is its building system.

[@lunavil]

Get it so the grass color matches the terrain underneath, there's so documentation about from a grass asset pack that was helpful for me. Good luck

[@Lejynn]

Thanks! A lot of people have been giving me tips on the grass. So hopefully I can make it better next time. :)

[@joeknap10]

a very informative and fun to watch video condensed into 5 minutes! Really cool!

[@Lejynn]

Thanks Joe! I am glad you liked it.

[@vectorprodstudio]

This is really cool to see because I’m about to start thinking about terrains in my FPS game and yours look very nice! Really love the stylization. One quick tip is that I noticed sometimes the weapon looks a little long on screen from this perspective. If it’s something you agree with, one solution is to render weapons/arms on a second camera and set its FOV lower so the gun looks close. This also helps later so that if you change the FOV when sprinting the weapons won’t also become distorted. Great video I subbed!

[@Lejynn]

Yeah, I noticed the weapon being super long after I uploaded the video. xP I was too focused on the terrain to see that changing the FOV messed up my gun placement. I have played with rendering the gun in a separate camera. This also helps with the gun clipping through walls. But then my gun no longer reacts to the environment shadows. Were you able to fix that? Thanks, I appreciate the sub!

[@kyoseoul]

At first i related so much, but then your learning curve just grew exponentailly. Your Game looks amazing and this gives me motivation to try to improve myself in terms of Game Development. Keep up the good work, im looking forward to your next videos!

[@Lejynn]

Thanks, I really appreciate it! I think if you to watch the same videos that I linked in the playlist, you would grow exponentially as well. Glad I motivated you. Keep it up! I will have more videos for you soon. :)

[@KasperJuul87]

Nice video. It helped me figure out my problem with the equations in the noise script. Thought i figured that the lacunarity does not work as intended with you corrections because to they are multiplied with the offsets. So the offset should be added last :)

[@Lejynn]

Ayeeeee, glad I was able to help someone with that problem. :)

[@b4ux1t3-tech]

My first thought when I started this video was "Okay, so he just plugged in a bunch of code from other KZbinrs who I'm familiar with." That was sort of a turn off for me, almost felt like a cop out. Then I just kept watching, and I realized something: You're perfectly mirroring the process that I use when I'm trying to learn something in this space (game development and programmatic visual effects). You even use the same channels that I do! I would rename this video to "How to Learn How to Generate Procedural Terrain". And that would be _awesome_! A lot of KZbin educational content is about learning a specific concept, but you're teaching something in this video that is even more important: you're teaching people how to learn. Anyway, great video, I'm really glad I didn't click away! Consider me subscribed.

[@Lejynn]

I am glad you didn't click away! You definitely nailed the value of these videos. These devlogs are to show every step that I took while on my journey of learning game dev and Unity. But this also helps others because it teaches them how to learn (like you said) and it also paints a path of what videos people can watch to produce similar results to what I have. I appreciate the sub! I am glad you gave the video a chance. :)

[@6lack5ushi]

Glad to be part of the first 300, great video!

[@Lejynn]

You're officially part of my day one gang. Thanks for subbing! :)

[@magnusm4]

I did this years ago and now started again. But instead of just writing the code I wanted to understand it more, and add more. So I'm currently watching Brackeys and Kyle Andrews [Unity Tutorial] How to Make Low Poly Water, tutorial. And one by Board To Bits Games about procedural generation so I understand the methods and logic for future use. My current goal is taking both their methods and combining them. Brackeys allows the change in height and width while Kyle Andrews video is a summarized version of World Of Zero's video Procedural Mesh Generation in Unity 3D. Which uses a gridsize. Meaning the size of the overall plane is one variable, while gridsize is how many vertices in that do you want. So increasing the amount of vertices doesn't increase it's size or length. So I'm looking to combine these to a flexible one. After that I can look into the ones you talked about. I know Sebastian can be a brain full but helpful in many ways as long as you look it up afterwards. Otherwise Catlike coding is my go to site for articles and super helpful tutorials on everything any aspiring game dev could want. Movement, grids, shaders, physics, models, textures everything.

[@Lejynn]

That's awesome. Good luck on your journey!

[@TheRagingSerpent]

Amazing stuff, since you are going for stylized look, you may want to make all the normals of your grass mesh point directly up, this will mask the fact that they are just flat planes with a texture on them. You can easily do this in Blender by placing a flat plane, then in your grass mesh add "data transfer" modifier and select the flat plane as the source then check the normals option.

[@Lejynn]

Super good tips! Thanks Veirū.

[@devgoose6980]

Just a tip, don’t search up too many tutorials because you will just be stuck in a loop where you will always be relying on a person to help you instead of you doing it yourself. Instead you should start small and build your way up and if you still want to keep making this game try just to get the mvp out first. Great job with your devlogs btw keep it up!

[@Lejynn]

That's the double-edge sword that I created in these videos. I like showing my learning process because it allows others to follow along on my game dev journey. But I undermine how much of my own work I put into these projects. xP Thanks! I will definitely have more coming.

I would suggest to continue on the total procedure generation from a planet level, and keep on adding details , once you keep on going down, oceans, rivers, large land masses, towns, roads, houses, trees, everything procedural generated. Become the no 1 procedural generation guru on YT. Become Limitless . Best of luck.

[@Lejynn]

[@AndrewDavidJ]

Hey! I just stumbled upon this and I think what you've managed to build so far by just using tutorials is really cool! Shaders can be quite daunting at first, but once you're past that first step, the learning curve is definitely more manageable than you'd expect. I also make devlogs and gamedev content, so I love exploring this corner of KZbin to see what awesome stuff other devs are creating to help keep myself motivated. I really look forward to seeing how your FPS game evolves! Subscribed :)

[@ultmatepotato]

So many tips in this video! Can you tell me how you made the weapon bob when jumping and landing?

[@Lejynn]

Hey, thanks for the comment! So I have a script that tracks the y-velocity of the player, and if the player is grounded. You can find out how to get these values from Brackeys FPS Controller that I linked in my last video. Then, if I am not grounded, I use the y-velocity to determine which way I should rotate the gun. Positive Y means rotate down (jumping up). Negative Y means rotate up (falling). Then when "is grounded" first becomes true again (we just landed), I let the gun rotate downward again for a brief second. Here's the code I made for my last video. public class JumpAnimation : MonoBehaviour { public PlayerMovement playerMovement; public bool isAiming; public float jumpIntensity; public float jumpSmooth; public float landingIntensity; public float landingSmooth; public float recoverySpeed; float impactForce = 0; void Update() { if (!playerMovement.isGrounded) { float yVelocity = playerMovement.controller.velocity.y; impactForce = -yVelocity * landingIntensity; if (isAiming) { yVelocity = Mathf.Max(yVelocity, 0); } transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Lerp(transform.localRotation, Quaternion.Euler(yVelocity * jumpIntensity, 0, 0), Time.deltaTime * jumpSmooth); } else if (playerMovement.isGrounded & impactForce >= 0) { transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Lerp(transform.localRotation, Quaternion.Euler(impactForce, 0, 0), Time.deltaTime * landingSmooth); impactForce -= recoverySpeed * Time.deltaTime; } else { transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Lerp(transform.localRotation, Quaternion.identity, Time.deltaTime * landingSmooth); } } }

for grass to blend with ground, try using emissive gradient that follow ground color to actual grass color, to be more precise, lerp the ground color value to grass color and use y-texture co-ordinate as alpha. but remember to use it in emissive channel.

[@Lejynn]

Thanks for the tip! I was having an issue where if the normal of the grass plane was slightly downward or away from the light, the grass would be too dark. I tried just setting all the normals upwards, but it didn't look right. I'll try using the emissive channel.

[@mitu_pinju]

@@Lejynn if you want to fix issue by setting the normals right, then solution is pretty simple to that, I tried all those methods Where you project the normals to z-axis of all the vertices (only if the foliage is card based) but never got it working, now I don't know how to do it unity, but in unreal , if you disable tangent space normals in the material, but you have to use at least one normal map, it would help you get rid of harsh dark areas.

Hey. I would like to know how do you handle the Shader error in 'Shader Graphs/test': 'PReferenceFragment': cannot convert from 'struct v2f surf' to 'struct SurfaceDescription' ? I've been trugling about this error for sometimes now

[@StefanosP208]

great video all around! many thanks

[@Sweenus987]

You could improve the tree generation by first using Poisson Disk sampling with differing radii for different densities. You also have the position of all the vertices for the ground, all you would have to do is check the height of the closest vertices on the ground to a random x and y value within the x and y bounds of the ground. This would be much faster than a ray cast. You could do even more with this, you could set flags for different vertices (at this point it would be an array of structs) to control what goes where. You could combine this with your Perlin noise (simplex noise is more efficient) with the value being a percentage chance something could spawn. Looks good so far and procedural generation is really fun IMO, I made a simple-ish city generator for one of my university modules (which was actually called Procedural Content Generation).

[@Lejynn]

Thanks for letting me know! I had no idea about Poisson Disk Sampling. Seems super useful. I’ll keep that in mind for the next time I work on the placement generator.

Wow this is a really great video. I know that you probably spent alot of time doing research, but I cant find any good new videos explaining how shader graph position nodes work. They just say aton of random nonsense and show you how to do really specific things, but ive never been able to use them by myself.

[@Lejynn]

You should check out this playlist from Ben Cloward. kzbin.info/aero/PL78XDi0TS4lEBWa2Hpzg2SRC5njCcKydl. This is the best one I found so far that goes over the basics of shader graph.

Thank you for the vid! I've enjoyed watching your videos and I wanted to know how have you learnt so much within such a short period of time? Because I've been working with Unity for half a year and I feel quite dumb seeing how much you have learned compared to me :(

Thanks for the comment! Honestly, everyone learns at their own pace. Just keep at it! My advantage is I have a degree in Computer Science and 4 years of experience as a software engineer. So don't feel bad because this allows me to write/pick up the coding concepts a little quicker. The only challenge for me is learning Unity and the game dev side of things. But really, KZbin has proven to be a great source to provide you with everything you need. I just learn by watching every video I can find on youtube. Then the ones that I find most helpful are the ones that make it into the video. So keep at, keep learning, and I promise you that you will see the progress you want.
