[@iesdise]

I'm about to start a project and I'm not sure if I wanna go for UE4 or C4D Octane for my rendering. On one hand working with UE4 is way easier and basically everything is ready to go with zero setup. On the other hand I'm more experienced with C4D and I can control the overall look of the scene easier in Octane. This convinced me, I'm going UE4. I was thinking about re-skinning all the fbx assets I have in mixer, but I can do it on the go in UE4. I love you since you started your colab with Epic, you're doing something amazing for the gaming industry as a whole and you get next to no credit for it.

[@wolfsblessing]

[@1Robertwaterworth]

I am a Maya guy, but I think it is time to start using Unreal to layout all my shots from now on. So many powerful features! I'm really impressed. Great job!

[@swordsmancity]

Bridge was already a great tool for directly texturing and editing materials inside unreal engine with wonderful editing options that comes with bridge; but you guys are also adding this new "vertex blend material" stuff on top of it... Well... Thank you, for being awesome :)

[@WoodysAR]

I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out the first step to getting this working with UE4. I am expert at so many facets of UE4 but this 3rd party stuff throws me for a loop. You say you did this MEGASCAN stuff INSIUDE UE4? I looked for a 'MEGASCANS Plugin and for a 'Vertex-Blend-Plugin' but no luck,. I can only find what they call an 'organizational' tool? (which is the last thing I need...) called 'BRIDGE'. BUT You seem to be using BRIDGE as a real TOOL instead of a Filing Cabinet AND *from within UE4???* I have tried for over a year to understand their weird way of interfacing with UE4,. I just don't get it,. Could you maybe give me an enlightening description and a few simple steps without all their flashy confusing marketing? Help me out and I'll send my almost 3,000 loyal subscribers your way!! (From my main channel: KZbin.com/NextWorldVR )

[@swordsmancity]

​@@WoodysAR After downloading Bridge Tool and installing it, at first run it will ask you to set; DCC/Engine, select Unreal Engine here. Under that it will ask you a folder where your downloaded library will be. This is not the actual plug-in, set a folder you want and then hit "save". Now sign in with Epic account in Bridge Program which you've linked(on Quixel site) before. Download one of the materials. When it is completed, on right panel you will have another tab that's called "Export Settings". Click on that, select Export to: Unreal Engine, Engine Version: to your latest installed version (it is 4.25 for me), and then on Installation Folder: select where your engine's plugins are installed, which was in my case "C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.25\Engine\Plugins" ***IMPORTANT*** DO NOT set Program Files (x86) on that path, that will give you an error on exporting. If that happens, you should delete that and reinstall plugin into correct folder. Actual plugin will then be installed. Leave "Project Location" empty since you will be running Bridge and Unreal Engine at the same time and as soon as you export, it will export the materials to your active(opened) project. Now start your Unreal Engine version you've installed the plugin in; you should have "Megascan Link with Bridge" Tool on top. You can now hit export on Bridge Program, it will detect running Unreal Engine background and will install your new materials inside your content folder under "Megascan" name, have fun :) ------ Edit: This was the original info i installed mine from: help.quixel.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002127457-Installing-the-Megascans-Plugin-for-UE4-on-Windows Might help you better than my explanation. Good luck mate. ------ How Texturing Works: Materials you exported from Bridge into Unreal Engine will have a "Material Instance" for each different material. By using customization options they added inside those material instances; you can change tiling, rotating tiling; customizing colors, changing constrass/brighness/saturation; changing roughness amounts; increasing/decreasing normal strengh etc.. You pretty much have everything to do your texturing inside Unreal for assets(most likely environment assets) where you can use tiling materials. For example for testing; i re-made the whole texturing inside Unreal for one of my marketplace asset pack by using those and decided to use this method for my personal project. I might only need to use Mixer to create textures for unique models (like character assets) to have some curvature maps etc. to give them more "unique" look.

8:14 that, that right there is brilliant!

Quixel is outdoing itself with each update. I was (kinda still is) a Substance guy for my own assets; but for everything else, especially for outdoor scenes Quixel made it almost impossible to search for other options. Outstanding work you guys are doing. Can't wait to see what you'll come up with when UE5 is released for public...

[@OnsideHaddock72]

The recent development with the advanced texture mapping and raytracing make this engine... unreal Roll credits

[@makarawash]

HELP: @Quixel at 8:14, when I do that (play with the Blend Amount Value), it doesn´t appear to affect it at all. Did I miss something? *UPDATE* : make sure that the *Enable Displacement* checkbox is checked before creating the blend material at the Megascans Plugin Panel, and that you the materials you imported came with a displacement map... and that such map is actually attached to the corresponding slot in the final blend material, because mine appeared as a default grey texture. And (this didn´t happen to me, just saying, it could happen to anyone, not judging...) that the mesh you are trying to vertex paint is subdivided several times.

[@PAWTPIE]

[@georges8408]

thanks men!

[@Bestvegeta]

This should be a sticked comment. Absolute life saving comment right here.

[@MusicMtlify]

Thanks It worked for me too! Displacement maps weren't there when I exported the blended material. In order to fix it, I just dragged the missing displacement maps from the original materials to the final blended material slots. Also the plane I was using didn't have enough vertex, so I went back to max and created a higher poly plane and this fixed the problem.

[@killabeectba]

This is so amazing, now it’s easier to create more realistic scenes in a very practical way

[@matthews7895]

I really like this plugin, but one thing that can make this even better is if it uses the displacement maps when adding puddles. Right now the puddles just go over everything and completely flattens the normal map underneath. I think it would be better if we can have an option that allows the puddles to look at the height maps. It would look more realistic and allow artists to have more control

[@Sean-pv1nw]

Whenever I try to paint, nothing shows up. I'm able to do everything until 7:30 but that's it. Does anyone know why this would be happening?

@@rizkyramadhan8594 haha, Unity folk here, no, that’s crazy talk. I and many others would definitely thumbs this up. This is a great tutorial and great use of Quixel Megascans... taking notes to implement in Unity as it would be fairly straightforward and not that complicated (standard video game tech art techniques). However they went ahead and added tons of options that I loved... the adjustment HSV/Tint controls add so much power to what’s already there, the dirt layer gets tweaked from a basic brown muddy looking to lighter dust like brick sand like, amazing. Also wondering if the height map blending is a basic ‘slope/offset equation’ or ‘smooth step’ with the vertex color value doing the threshold amount or something specific because it does look amazing.

[@CMON75]

When you say "a healthy amount of vertices", is there any guideline? Particularly for game-ready assets? How many per 100x100 Unreal Units? Thank you!

[@HelderP1337]

I would argue actually to not tessellate your meshes too much. If there's some space between the verts, it creates rooms for some nice gradients between materials. Try it out, it depends on what you're trying to build so it's hard to say how many verts per 100 units, one might be all you need actually.

[@Arthurboy777]

On plane surfaces 1 polygon per square meter is pretty standard at the moment in the industry! but you can go crazy with good LoDs and tesselation

[@1_Man_Media]

fantastic new blend material controls. I used to use my own shaders with your maps plugged in but now I see no reason to. Vertex painting is easily one of my fav things to do its super relaxing and I look forward to playing with your new material as well as future updates from the quixel team.

Hello I have this issue when I try to create a blend material, it shows me :"Select two or more material instances to perform this operation" . I tried to insert instances or not in the slots but it happens all the time. I don't know if this problem comes from the material or the plugin.

My brush does not paint the texture, what can I do?
