And what u guys want? Download a software, probably for free, get your free meshes and create disneylike quality stuff in 1 hour with no experience at all? This video just shows that making such virtual worlds is possible in not-that-much-time, but hey, you have to work your way through. Don't expect to find any tutorial on any matter, showing how to make excellent stuff with no effort put at all.

[@AntonQvarfordt]

I just thought it was funny (and sure, a tad misleading, but whatever) that it supposedly demonstrates'Creating a Forest in UE4 in 1 Hour' when in actuality actively cut betwene and im assuming pre-meditated. The video is an hour. Actually puttin that together would take longer than an hour, and it's cale "Do X in 1 Hour". I think thats a valid albeit impassionate critique. Oh, yeah, you actually also repeadedly fast-forward the work... Which I don't think my license contains.

[@内田ガネーシュ]

Alright Im gonna help with this 2:37 "basic stuff" to you folks who are just starting out. Firstly he used Maya to make the wall and road you can use blender. It is simpler, smaller and more friendly than Maya and is open source, so free. 1. Click description and open Ground Material Pastebin 2. Open Unreal 4 3. Make new project (game or whatever it may be) 4. Add a new material by clicking "Add New" 2:26 in Materials hopefully in a new folder if you did not used starter kit, regardless. 5. Name it 'Good weed' and double click. (otherwise it does not work) 6. Switch tab and open the Ground Material Pastebin you opened and select all the text by press Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V in Unreal at 2:37. 7. Smile like an idiot and move on to the life in the fast lane.

[@adamtherealone]

Hey y’all, I’m compiling a list fo the quixel textures that closely match up with the ones he uses for this brainiac-ass node system. Will update in a day or two. I will turn this into a video within a week or two. At the end of the day, his code isn't REALLY needed and a megascans material blend pretty much does the same thing (megascans route will require more time and finess when it comes to painting though. So i guess its worth it to do this node work ???) Current materials/workflow that works close enough to his Artstation devblog. SAD textures are "simply" Specular on Red, AO on Green, and Displacement on Blue channels. Either do these through photoshop or set up nodes to intercept them :)))) Here is a very quick tutorial for how to do them in PhotoShop: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaaZmpyvdq6anKs Doing it through PS, find the quixel folder on your comp to access the specific jpegs of the SAD materials. - To get all of the things needed for the SADs, make sure your downloads from quixel contain the Specular, AO, Displacement. You'll also need to enable tessellation in your material properties (bottom left of the gobbligook screen) to make the final material connections. Here's a quick tutorial on that kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5bNgqyXr7mIjac The ID Codes (pjxmM0) Are Used To Find The "Surface" Materials In Megascan/Quixel Libraries. These are what I used, not great, but its a tutorial afterall. Grass Section: - Grass Cut: pjxmM0 - Normal, SAD, Albedo Transition Sand Section: Pick One - Soil Rough: pjEvh0 - Albedo ~OR~ - Soil Mud: omCik0 - Albedo Normals In bottom of the culumn of code. I renamed them Forest Normals in mine. USE BOTH OF THESE MATERIALS (or two of your own. But you NEED two) -Pine Forest Floor: vctkajjg (quixel/bridge sees this as pine forest, unreal sees it as "rock rough". Its the same thing just under a different name) - Normal, Secular, Albedo (albedo will go in the bottom of the two albedos in the albedo section ENJOY) - Forest Floor : tl2neghew - Normal, Secular, Albedo (placed in the same way as above) and albedo goes into the albedo 1 slot.

I wouldn't say he 'created' it but more an efficient use of built-in presets. The time it takes to actually create this can take up to a few weeks (modeling, UV'ing, Texturing, Materials, graphing, creating custom brushes, lighting, rendering tests etc.)

nobody worth paying for would take a few weeks to make this even if they made all the assets themselves, youre just extremely ignorant

For those who dont know what the SAD textures he uses are and how to create them- in quixel bridge, after you click on an asset ready to export, under export settings, on the bottom there are two options: global export settings and advanced settings. Click advanced settings. Scroll down to Customize Maps, check the Pack Channels option. Change the name to SAD. For R- select Specular R. G- Albedo G. B- Diffuse B. Save Settings. Export. Enjoy your SAD maps.

[@Gigasimo456]

Lol rowan, there's much more behind creating a game than just designing forests :P but yeah, this forest is much above the average games have!

[@Bestgameplayer10]

Simone Bondi - Yeah. There's level design that has to go with gameplay and the narrative, particularly the gameplay first as that's always put in place before the narrative. Here has just made an area with little to known background on why it needs to look that way, how it'll be used/viewed, etc.

[@salc1n380]

rowan dax but you have to remember that don't make a 50 meter scene instead they make a huge forest and can't focus on one tiny part so much

[@bored88888888]

On top of everyone else's reasons, one thing that gets largely overlooked in game design is efficiency. If you were to extend all that foliage to a large playable area, you'd be wrecking havoc on whatever system (console or PC) is trying to run it. Something else (likely a lot of somethings) would have to take a big hit, whether it be the frame rate, load times, draw distance, or the visual fidelity of characters/other things needed in an actual game. This approach works WONDERS when you're taking still shots or basic video where you have complete control over where the camera goes and how things will be viewed, but not so much when you have a player running around messing all that control up

Small question : why creating a mesh for the ground rather than using the terrain brush and some landscape materials ? Nice video between, love your work!

[@sharpspike06]

obviously because it looks better at the end, plus that ground mesh required absolutely 0 skill in modeling its not like he modeled a greek statue or anything its just a plane.

[@StephaneCharre]

okok thank you for the answer

[@Alpha-ri4sf]

yeah i was wondering if it would be easier to skip the meshes and build on the terrain, but for a scene i think this way makes it feel more real, for a gameyou would just mess with terrain for the tire tracks im guessing and keep a bigger map? im still new and playing with building a big map

[@JohnSmith-wj2wd]

Not only that, UE4's terrain tool can only paint heightmaps, thus not being able to sculpt concave shapes with consistent edge spacing such as the dirt incline. In other words, the bit he modelled beforehand is impossible to sculpt in-engine.

[@StephaneCharre]

Alright thank you :)
