[@polygonflow]

If you have any questions about the steps in the video, just let us know!

[@stphngrnr]

Calling it a tutorial is understating Dash. Bloody wizardry is what it is! Great work team

[@essamibrahiem2896]

Just perfect !!!!, keep up the good work guys, I'm proud of you !

[@polygonflow]

Thank you! Very kind of you to say! 😍

[@robertdouble559]

Amazing workflow Galen, thank you for the overview.

[@bolbolegypttuber]

Amazing ideas by Spline Thank you so much

[@michaelb1099]

would like to see how you take the physics side and bring into the sequence and run in a scene

[@polygonflow]

@@michaelb1099 It would for sure be awesome, but unfortunately our tools are editor mode only right now, we hope to fix this in the future though 👍

[@AaronFhd]

Great Stuff, Was working on a cliff for a while LOL:)

[@orphanRTG]

Maan I just love it!

[@polygonflow]

Have you had a chance to try it yourself? The stuff on your channel looks awesome!

[@orphanRTG]

@@polygonflow Thank you! Yes, sure. I was already playing with it, and I have a few scenes in UE that are in progress. I want to implement Dash's helpful approach there. Honestly, I don't know why Epic hasn't already bought it from you. It is a must-have tool that should be in UE by default.

[@polygonflow]

I pinged you on Discord. @gaminginvestor

[@focusmaya251]

Great stuff thanks for sharing friend❤

[@michaelb1099]

i dont see the link to previous video on the physics

[@polygonflow]

@@michaelb1099 if you send us a message on Discord we can show you how it works if you have any questions 👍👍

[@Samuele_Lini_ARS]

Really cool! Similar results to PGC. Why those assets have no nanite checked?

[@gdavis3d]

Whoops 😅

[@tresdece]

How do yo make the two sides of the canyon to face one to each other instead than facing both to same direction?

[@polygonflow]

In this video Galen did two separate Path Scatters, and then he changed the rotation of one of them. If you are struggling, please send a message in our Discord and I can get you a short little video showing it 👋

[@sherminator9890]

Is there an option to use displacement with materials/textires instead of just placing assets and scattering them? Ir if I want displacement do I have to do that outside of dash? I’m new to unreal engine and trying to understand everything

[@polygonflow]

Yes you can both enable and adjust the displacement through Dash. Some more info is available in the Discord FAQ: discord.com/channels/826908885024636989/1203998749295120384 I hope this helps, otherwise, feel free to send a message in our discord: bit.ly/DashDiscord :)

[@Chuckstarrious]

Does this method play well with performance? All the elements seem to be static meshes, are the extra copies instanced and thus do not cost extra calls? Great vid either way!

[@polygonflow]

Our scatter tools uses HISM, the same as UE foliage painting, or PCG. So similar performance-wise :) Thanks!

[@arq-gz5sd]

Im trying the trial version and i tried to load all the library meshes to unreal but it doesnt compute nothing and its not visible the estimated time like it was doing before i close unreal and reopened still not working

[@polygonflow]

Sorry about the late reply - for assistance, please join us on Discord via bit.ly/DashDiscord

[@RichardRiegel]

Great... and where are the Palm Trees assets come from? Are they from UE Marketplace?

[@polygonflow]

Yes, they are the Dekagon pack, Tropical Foliage and Landscape :)

[@RichardRiegel]

@@polygonflow thx

[@dhruvjaikumar5763]

can dash be installed for 5.4

[@polygonflow]

Yes and no! You can use Dash 1.7 beta to use it in 5.4, more info available here: polygonflow.notion.site/Dash-1-7-0-Pre-Release-Notes-9559f2b0db2f4b18905911ed8b76c8c8

[@randomfootages9120]

will you make map of call of duty 4 modern warfare its called (overgrown) and (strike) on UE5.4 ?

[@polygonflow]

Cool idea! Perhaps it would be possible in the future!

[@randomfootages9120]

@@polygonflow I hope I will see it with in next 2 or 3 months. Anyway best of luck try your best and also please take advantage of all upcoming features of UE5.4 on those 2 maps that I mentioned.

[@Xodroc]

It's neat, but it would be a real trick to have cliffs generated based on slope detection in places where a cliff would naturally fit. That's what all these different spline based methods still fail to do. There's also just far too many subscription services out there these days.

[@polygonflow]

Thanks for the suggestion, we do actually have an Angle Mask in our Surface Scatter, but will not down the request to add it to the Path Scatter as well! :) We know! That is why we decided to introduce a perpetual plan for Dash a while back! :) Available at our website, polygonflow.io

Promo`SM 😞

[@arq-gz5sd]

im trying to load all the meshes to the library at some point stop working now it doesnt compute any mesh further i closed unreal and reopened nothing work im a bit dissapointed to make again the blankproject with all the meshes folders

[@polygonflow]

Sorry to hear this! Could you perhaps join our Discord and we can give you proper help there? Very hard to help without having more information :( bit.ly/DashDiscord If you can't join Discord, please send me an email and we can try to sort it out there! [e-mail], getting a video showing the problem and having the UE output log open would be a great start! :)
