Oh my god! Gorka is non-stop uploading! My weeked is going to be gooooddddd. Thank you man!

[@GorkaGames]

haha thank you man! I love making these videos and tutorials, so I will keep going!!

[@haneetkhanna1883]

@@GorkaGames in the end you talk about controlling density from edge of spline. how do you do that. like scale and density of static mesh to be smaller near the edge and it gets bigger and denser as we move towards the centre of closed spline. thanks

[@odealajoie-fr]

I love those tutorial about procedural!! i hope you will make more! Thanks!!

[@borisstengele5389]

Party colors! 🤩 Thx!

[@homemetalstudios759]

got me up and going so i can start my own proced content journey. much appreciated

[@shayanwaseem6757]

Cool, keep making more procedural generation content, its very useful

[@GorkaGames]

I will! I'm glad you are finding them useful! 😁😁

[@ntonAnton]

THANKS!!❤❤❤ please make more advanced videos about it❤

[@larabatech1200]

very cool toturial 💌

[@ilhabela3d]

Amazing tutorial. Thank you.

[@FlooFler]

Nice Tutorial! How can i make it work that when i move a spline point up, the trees go up too ?

[@T1mothyTee]

Do you know if it's possible to do this during runtime ? Do as the camera moves to the left infinitely it spawns objects out of frame ?

[@dcad6934]

Awesome tutorial, how does this plugin scale to big maps?

[@zenparvez]

Any chance on doing a tutorial about medieval or sci fi city populating with PCG ? All i see in this site people showcasing their work with city building but no tutorials yet.

[@jurajbusa2684]

This is wonderful! i will experiment with settings like yours but with other assets then trees and stuff. BTW did i miss something or why are all the blocks spawn in a grid? can we add some randomness with the positioning?

[@GorkaGames]

thanks! Yeah so I needed to add more offset to the translation so it is even more random

[@jeremyculler6653]

This is awesome, is there a way to fade out the density towards the edge?

[@user-hg8up1co6r]

Thank you for the lesson! I have a question, how can I spawn meshes this way, while adjusting the exact number of them. For example, I need 120 trees (no more and no less). Thank you.

[@ariondigital8518]

thank you!

[@JuliusLong]

Its a great start for a biome-system, but is it possible to change the landscape texture with this methode too?

[@QDoppio]

How can I control the amount of spawned mashes in blueprint? Thank you.

[@AresWorlds]

Great tutorial this is unrelated but can you also make how to add steam achievement in ue5 i am failed to doing it

[@riversidemedia2916]

Is there a way to make the bottoms of the trees stick to the shape of the landscape? For if you want trees on a hill

[@SkoolConnor]

so if I do exterior, will the foliage be deleted wherever the spline is?

[@FactSlash]

Very cool

[@GorkaGames]

thanks!

[@Alex-yc8ie]

Hi, how to make spawn points in the forest random? As it is done in a regular PSG, I have all the trees in one line spawned.

[@alberthawkins9964]

When I change the scale of the PCG Graph the size of the trees change. This does not appear to happent in your video. Am I missing something?

[@SkyVeyron]

this is super helpful, but after seeing this video i was wondering how can we make splines that generate proceduraly through the terrain, making a infinite road, like on the game The Long Drive, this would be insane

[@StudioPA]

up for this! :3

[@TheAlbifly]

I have a hill, how do I rotate it along normals? (ground planes. Not trees)

[@mateuszmrowczynski5763]

Great vid! But I have a little problem with uneven ground, can I make it to spawn everything on ground level instead of above/under?

[@mateuszmrowczynski5763]

I found solution, use normal PCG area and then delete the parts you dont need with splines, otherwise you will have problems with level alignment

[@kalibrador]

is there a collision or shade settings in order to prevent meshes growing on top or others? just as procedural foliage volume would allow us to do

[@avistryfe4534]

There is a pcg graph setting to plce in the graph that prevents things from spawning within x radius of other objects. Sorry i cant elaborate more but i know its there.

[@huequynhtran]

Try the bp self-pruning, not perfect but gets rid of some overlapping geo!

[@ivansilveira7589]

Static meshes appear to me without textures. Any advice

[@glenn3646]

how can you exclude some area like in the center of the palm tree forest?

[@tysonsingh1731]

You should also play the character on this little forest

[@GorkaGames]

yeahhh I forgottt

[@xecense]

Do you know how to get this working on landscapes that have varying height? I made some spline blueprint landscapes and couldn't figure out how to get the points sampled on the surface inside the spline, i tired using the landscape data sampler but that didn't work either. btw I am new to this stuff lol

[@IvlenovAnton]

You should use "Projection" node: plug Spline Sampler into "In" pin and Landscape pin from Input to "Projection Target" pin

[@NorwinLabs]

@@IvlenovAnton I needed this thanks!

[@hobbs8742]

and plug the output of the Projection node into the Transform Points node, deleting the older connection between Spline Sampler and Transform Points

[@Your_Average_Black]

Will I be able to cut down these trees? I want to make procedural forests in my game but I need to be able to chop down the trees with my instance actor

[@avistryfe4534]

If you have the mesh already setup to be choppable/respawnable and you place it in the pcg it will work. Need to have the tree setup prior to adding it tho.

[@Atelier_C4r4t]

Hello, I don't know why but at the first step of this tuto when i try to see the debug in my viewport i can't see it. Nevertheless, i do the same as the vidéo ahaha. Help me please :D

[@PixelNaniPlay]

bro frst three nodes added then the white particals are not divided like army whats the problem

[@ZeroSoulification]

good

[@GorkaGames]

thanks

[@nerikiman1743]

my fps is like 30 is there a way to fix this?

[@archcast5550]

no such thing as flat terrain how do you fix on non flat surface?

[@alberthawkins9964]

When using splines how do we get the points to follow terrain? For example on hilly terrain.

[@dartmo8951]

Add a "projection" between the Spline Sampler and the Transform Points and connect the Input Landscape to the Projection Target

[@F4Phantom5657]

​@@dartmo8951, thank you.

[@CalebRatcliffe]

@@dartmo8951 Your the GOAT, thanks

[@JoeHendersonOfficial]

bro how are you getting so many frames with so many trees!!??

[@SVIE45]

I don't get spline data node why?

[@manofflorida]

Does this only work on flat surfaces?

[@avistryfe4534]

You can set the range to flat only or ramp it up so it goes onto angled slopes in a set angle range. Trees will be weird tho cuz theyll maintain verticality with the slope. So steep slope. Angled tree. Theres a way to mess with this but...im not there yet. Lol

[@SugarKaneNosey]

European trees is free and works great! for anyone who doesn't want to pay for trees

[@elevatedhistory]

I can't get this to work for me. So far it's only showing the spline points on the map and won't do anything else shown on the video.

[@SooSkiTzOYT]

same, maybe its becsue it only shows a Green "Static Mesh Spawner" instead of the goldish color one he has in the video. not sure whats up

[@bigsylph7231]

this is cool but kinda useless cus it doesnt place on landscape just on the spline level meaning you will have floating or buried foliage as soon as you sculpt any landscape

[@luisgarciaarmas5827]

Lo necesito en español 🤗

[@stormrisestuido]

how much fps in this forest?

[@GorkaGames]

I don't remember exactly, but around 50-60 , and at the end increasing the spline area 40

[@stormrisestuido]

@@GorkaGames It seems to me that optimization is not good in versions after unreal engine 5.0. Still nanite not working in any version. Do you think it makes sense to switch to 5.2 with such low fps or should I continue with 5.0?

[@eddiej.l.christian6754]

Select Interior on Spline Sampler = Instant Crash on UE5.2 :(

[@MickaelSchaack]

Level too high for me hahahah

[@GorkaGames]

hahaha, I mean it's just starting with the basics and slowly going up!

[@MickaelSchaack]

​@@GorkaGames yes sure so you can help on my project ? Cause i have a little problem with contrôle rig

[@OlavSchneider]

Those tall Coconut Palm trees look out of place and scale.

[@feloneouscat1]

Now that part that’s making me cry: unlike foliage spawners, this AVOIDS things like Quixel cliffs, rocks, or anything I make in Maya. In other words, it appears that when you are talking about landscape it literally is ONLY the landscape. I added a point filter node to try to filter out trees jutting from the sides of cliffs - this seriously affects performance. As much as I really thought I would like this, it’s looking more and more like for foliage the old foliage tools did a lot better job (even if they were a bit clunky). Perhaps there is a workaround? (For anything you add into the scene it will populate ON THE LANDSCAPE - have a Quixel rock? You now have bushes and trees in it!)

[@semmert]

Are we all flat earthers here or something? Try using this technique on anything other than a flat landscape, and you'll see it just doesn't work.

[@DRAWKCABLLA]

this doesn't teach how to use pcg AT ALL really. tweaking the spline sampler "interior sample spacing" to get the procedural content to look nice is NOT how its done. next time please take more time looking up the content before you try teaching others
