Unreal Engine 5 - MAWI - WOW!Nature - Forest Test

[@MAWIUnited]

Added a bunch of dynamic environment and player sounds to increase the atmosphere and set the mood in a new video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5yTcpJparebe80

[@seth111yta1]

best demonstration of realtime rendering ive ever seen in my life no contest

[@pixelsDVMT]

the developers just went to the mountain forest and filmed their hike in the first person, and now they're trying to make it look like a cool asset) It's actually a great job, guys, keep up the good work)

[@Matthew_Zardoz]

Absolutely incredible. Feels like life. Can really start to get a sense of time through the growth, decay and erosion.

[@redtro8678]

This is exactly what I hope the next witcher game will look like lol incredible

[@Cazanu417]

they moved to ue5,i think itl look even crazier,tho its at least 7 years away

[@ilyatkachenko271]

I like to imagine it's TES VI

[@Danuxsy]

@@Cazanu417 nooo.. they began development on it in 2022 i think, I would say release date is 2028 - 2029 (perhaps even earlier).

[@rom2387]

Какое же это добро👌👌

[@racinghaarrleykeen]

This looks better than most AAA games ,we have a lot of talent out there creating beautiful environments like this one here absolutely fantastic work !

[@VisualArt3D]

Might be your best work yet in terms or realism

[@0Synce]

Agreed, colors are on point, just the rocks could see some improvement.

[@GaryMcKinnonUFO]

Colour, texture and lighting all spot on for that naturalistic look, really, really impressive. Audio was also great. Liked and subbed.

[@MrZyprez]

Really nice work!☺️👌

[@MrTotalAhole]

I imagine that in either a real wold setting or a fantasy one that would be one miserable forest to try and camp/spend the night in. No flat ground, everything is soaked so forget lighting a fire, walking would be almost impossible because the risk of a twisted or broken ankle, or even leg and its dreary as heck. That being said, such a beautiful setting.

[@Dallas-eu5nz]

absolutely incredible.. feels like I'm going back in time.. these views and the castle in the distance are breathtaking.. looking forward to a few years when you can run this together with VR without problems and can make games out of it "into the radius 3"

[@DGVFX]

Exactly my thoughts also everything seems 1:1 scale which you rarely see in video games, Imagine being able to get into medieval castles or get lost in the woods with VR.

[@oskarmohar6073]

When my kid says "im going out for a stroll", this is probably what he refers to..

[@tekknorat]

sad

[@firstnamelastname4752]

If you want the footsteps sounds to stop panning so hard when strafing (noticeable on headphones), in UE I think you can increase the 'non-spatialised radius' setting for a sound source, which will mean the panning strength is reduced when the source is near.

[@Ghost-pb4ts]

This graphic demo absolutely screams horror or zombie game vibes! It’s reminiscent of classic old COD campaign maps. This setting is just begging for those types of games to be brought to life in this stunning graphic style!

[@denberz711]

zombie games 🥱🥱

[@max_biker4149]

I recently took a similar hike in the mountains, but in real life. The view was almost like this graphic.

[@JurikDesign]

I can feel the wetness of the forest well done !!

Beautiful!

[@LilysBad]

Wow, beautiful and Immersive af. I wouldn’t mind getting lost in there

[@Classic_DM]

Brilliant work as always.

[@valgau9488]

what a wonderful lighting work

[@yevheniibatiievskyi]

trees rowing through the rocks - that just awesome trees.)))

[@MAWIUnited]

Trees are awesome indeed. d3teiib5p3f439.cloudfront.net/news/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/ben-tree-1-of-5.jpg

wow 👍👍👍

[@billB101]

Amazing

[@TileWonder]

Would be nice to see how it looks in different weather/time of day.

[@dozar911]

How didnt i know about you man its awesome but i love the desert one if you plan to make a full course on it i would surely buy

[@sanderkofficial]

This looks soo insanely great, it really looks like the neuschwanstein surrounding forest! do you also have an environment for dutch forest landscape also? or do you have a suggestion that looks similar?

[@MAWIUnited]

Our Meadow Forest is a bit like dutch forest with Linden, Birch and Ash trees. www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/mw-meadow-forest-trees-biome

[@sanderkofficial]

@@MAWIUnited Sweet! I will check it out!

[@CG-yf4qi]

I love all your products. Most life like environments in UE marketplace. But my question: are these for cinematics or could they be optimized for console rpg? I’m thinking my powerful 64gb PC may still have trouble with combat/running in such detailed environments (let alone console for indie game im making)

[@MAWIUnited]

Depends on your target hardware. This runs realtime at 4k with Epic settings on a RTX4090 at stable 60fps. The lowest GPU to recommend for full Nanite foliage is a RTX3060Ti running on 1080p at High ~30fps.

[@henshin5369]

damn this one looks really good

[@timelschner8451]

fantastic work. I wish hunt showdown would look like this!

[@MyGames652]

How did you make the wobbly walking animation? It turned out great.🙏🙏🙏

[@maximsl]

At last! I have to admit that truly realistic graphics is finally here. It modelled so perfectly and illumination is so good that you cant even distint is it real ot cgi. But there is a serous flow still though, you cant see nor hear any insects and birds which are habitants of such a forest .. that makes the place feel lifeless, unnatural ..

[@Waaben21]

Hello! Are you planning to incorporate the 5.5 movement and animation update for the playable character?

[@MAWIUnited]

No because I'm still using UE5.2

[@wesleycoomans6850]

Everything looks amazing beside the rocks the look very low quality and disconnects a lot from overall scene some better lods will do wonders

[@b.s.7693]

Without Skyrim background music, it's hard to get immersed into that scene.

[@nausic]

Rambo First Blood game when?!

[@artforhugh9729]

Just needs breathing sounds and this would be crazy real I would buy this game just to explore the forest 😉

you can't because its a work in progress product for UE5.

So sad😢​@@MAWIUnited

[@nortox5181]

did you use speedtree? or how you made the branches, combined the scanned trunk with the continuation of the model with seamless textures?

[@MAWIUnited]

all foliage is made using our own tools. the speedtree license is pretty crap it doesn't allow for commercial products to use it.

[@nortox5181]

@@MAWIUnited yes, speedtree rights so bad

[@AnAncient76]

@@MAWIUnited What do you mean "it doesn't allow for commercial products to use it!? Speedtree assets can be used in commercial games.

[@screwdriver1337]

@@AnAncient76 but the speedtree license prohibits selling of assets made with Speedtree. Selling a game with speedtree assets is fine, but selling an asset pack made with speedtree is not allowed.

Awesome, when's the game coming out 😉

[@MAWIUnited]

soon :)

[@MasteroChieftan]

If TES6 looks half as good as this and plays like Skyrim I'll be satisfied.

Why no more free demo download?

[@MAWIUnited]

Because of their size and popularity they where causing insane amounts of traffic (multiple terabytes an hour).

[@forcews]

@@MAWIUnited maybe share with qBittorrent to Torrent network, no more worry about traffic cost if users divide downloads.

[@forcews]

@@MAWIUnited What about some alternate way that offloads traffic between users? thanks.

[@alexgrivas909]

How do you record the screen, does OBS look very good without a drop in fps... is it with DLSS 3.5?

[@MAWIUnited]

Nvidia Shadowplay and it's not DLSS

[@mikaellindahl6458]

Excellent work! Will this assetpack be compatible with ue5.3? (Dont wanna upgrade mid project)

how is that this looks phenomenal and my project with all the settings maxed out looks like refried shit?

[@iamski]

Wish the ray-tracing was enabled, it would dramatically improve the overall tone and atmosphere of this scene. But it's getting close.

[@AnAncient76]

You should sell some of these assets separately, like rocks for example.

[@FFeeLiT]

Its looking realistic, but games need much more than realism. They need fantasy and sites and paths and hidden locations and fitting challanges and enemies. This looks more like an arma forest, which is realistic but boring. Elderscrolls had exciting forests and worlds. It needs handcrafting and unique rewards.
