Hey Everyone, Thank you so much for the great support to the first video. I also put up my Patreon ( www.patreon.com/c/That3DGuy ) where you can get access to the .Blend File for this project, and the further projects I am doing. It also makes it possible for me to create more videos like this for you guys. Thank you again for the support !

One of the best blender environment creation video I've seen in a year in terms of packed knowledge and focus only on the most important parts of the process. Can't wait for the next one.

OMG thanks for that, means a lot !!

This is super helpful, I've been meaning to create a roadside scene but couldn't figure how to create the road and terrain. Btw Amazing work.

[@that3dguy119]

I'm glad it helped !!

[@jasonlescalleet5611]

I watched this to see how you got that Stalenhag atmosphere. The trick with the light blocker is a good one I will have to remember. For the alpha grass, try changing the alpha blend mode on the material to Dithered. I had to to that for some plant factory textures so that they would z buffer correctly (alpha blended textures can’t do this). I suspect if you’re alpha-blended fill-rate-limited (which would make sense with a zillion alpha blended things being drawn) this could help a lot.

[@that3dguy119]

Hi !! Thanks for the comment. If I remember right, You can't change the material alpha blend mode for cycles. That would be useful for EVEE as it does allow you to tho! Is there a way i am missing that allows you to it in cycles as well ?

8:10 I think that's because of resolution of the textures, they probably were 4k so that many instances with those huge textures were impacting the performance Btw new sub, I LOVE these types of videos and especially the mysterious/dark/suspenseful aesthetic on which you base your renders!

hey man, how did you get the road to sit flat on the ground plan?

[@that3dguy119]

@@fearthesmeag hey, I would recommend re-watching the start where put it down, I explain the masking of the ground plane to keep it flat for the road. :)

[@fearthesmeag]

@@that3dguy119 yeah I got that part, the ground was clipping thru the road - I inverted the Vertex Group in the Modifier Displacement, so the road was flat while everything outsider the vertex paint had displacement. All good thanks!

Hi Bro. I also have blender version 4.2 but Gscatter is not working in my blender. is there any solution to that. I tested it in an older version 3.6 and it was working fine there.

[@that3dguy119]

@@prabhavvats7131 Hi, I would recommend updating the version of your Gscatter, I also have the same issue when changing blender versions. Gscatter releases a new addon update with each version.

[@prabhavvats7131]

thx for the reply bro But The point here is that G scaterr's latest version is supporting blender 4.0 so I tried that too. It is called Gscatter 0.11.7 and is off 4. 2 mb something. If U can help me that would be awsome. And also I forgot to mention earlier but Ur video very nice U r very underrated.
