FULL DESCRIPTION
Finally getting this big Vray scene up and running in Unreal Engine was awesome. Once everything was looking good (which is not too hard to arrive at) I was able to just navigate around and generate any animations or stills I wanted. Also, I have a lot more planned with this as well.
Overall, Unreal Engine 5 performs quite and well as a professional tool, and the workflow makes a lot of sense for many things. Check out the video to see exactly what my process was, and make sure to let me know what you think of the workflow and UE5 in general. Also, what do you think of the results? Have you been using Unreal Engine, and do you find it to be as fun as I do?

Really impressive. Thanks for sharing.

[@Longboh1]

Great work!

[@Learn-archViz]

Thanks

[@Sknueppel85]

Hey Adam, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge ;) I'm currently grappling with the question of whether I should do my next project in Unreal or stick with Vray. My only concern, "on a gut feeling level," is the vegetation. Whether it will come out as nicely as with the Itoo plugins. But in reality, there shouldn't be anything standing in the way of that, right! Please continue with your great work!

[@Learn-archViz]

If you're talking about a professional project that needs to be done right, it may not be a good time to experiment with a new workflow that you are unsure of. BUT, the good news is, once you have a V-Ray scene, you can easily just take it into Unreal Engine and start trying it out (via Datasmith). You are correct to think that the forest pack stuff will not translate. I do that part using Unreal Engine tools, if that is the direction I am going to go. In the long term, you will want to learn the different workflows, then evaluate on a per project basis how you want to attack it, depending on what the finished project needs to be. For me, everything starts with 3ds Max and V-Ray, then it may go to Twinmotion, Vantage or Ue5 from there.

hey man love your work what kind of specs are you running on your computer I would love to konw, mine is struggling. keep up the great work

[@Learn-archViz]

The important element here is the video card, and for that I am running a (pretty old) GeForce RTX 2080 ti

How can we get the gable house?

[@benjamink5546]

Hi, very impressive work. Where do I get all the plants and trees? How do I get them into UE5?

[@Learn-archViz]

In this case it is all Megascans stuff, which is free within Unreal Engine. I have another video about that specifically, which I forgot to put in the description. It is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJq7qXqdZ9x_epI

Great scene, love the overall aesthetics. At 10:10 there is some light flicker in the center above the image on the wall. As I am having similar issues depending on the size, distance and type of light source I wonder if anyone here does have some solutions to get smooth and persistent light bounces.

[@Learn-archViz]

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I have not yet been able to get perfect results with Lumen on interiors during some parts. I need to investigate that spot to see if geometry needs adjustment, or if it needs higher Lumen settings, or what. I'd like to experiment with Path Tracer too on this one, as I think it would render the interior just fine. Obviously, that will take longer, though. These results were quite preliminary, so there is still a lot to experiment with. I am pretty encouraged by the whole process, though.

[@pixelasm]

@@Learn-archViz Thanks for your insights. As mentioned I have been looking for answers on that topic for quite some time. Most answers I have found sofar include value changes in the "Lumen Global Illumination" section of the PostProcessVolume. Unfortunately though the splotchy light bounces persist or even worse lights get culled although the max trace distance is set to 20000 units and other settings overcranked :( If you do ever find a solution I would be very interested in how you were able to fix these issues, also because like you mentioned using the path tracer is a time consuming alternative. Because like in @JSFILMZ test renders Pathtracer can increase rendertimes 10 / 20 or even more times which negates using Unreal as I can render with the same speed or even faster using #redshift or #octane in my current #cinema4D workflow

[@cbMotion]

Hi Adam. I like the way you comment relaxed and not so hyper activ. So i look to your Tutorial. But i did only See one chapter with lumen. Do you render in pathracer or lumen. And do you lightbaking? Or only lumen. So Short question: do i learn to light up and use lumen in your course? Cheers Carsten

[@Learn-archViz]

The entire UE5 project is done with Lumen, so in short, yes. I also show how to use the path tracer if you want to. The course started as a UE4 project, so in that project you can also find the light baking techniques, etc. You can skip straight to the UE5 project if you are only interested in how to create a full project using Lumen. As I add projects in the future, they will generally be Lumen too, because I think that is the way to go.

[@cbMotion]

Ok. Thank you. I think the same. Lumen will be the Future.
