Recreate a gorgeous, atmospheric photo in Unity 2019.3

[@AFriskyGamer]

I loved seeing how a "good enough" attitude could lead to a beautiful finished project, instead of extending this to a 10 hour video perfecting every line. This was informative and inspirational, despite not knowing much at all about Unity.

[@egwagjsd]

just dont take the "good enough" attitude too far, I feel like David did when he made the first tree

[@emanuelronald5157]

I guess I am kinda off topic but does anyone know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online?

[@XtroTheArctic]

That's an amazing quote! "Get it done and share it with the world!"

[@foldupgames]

That was great. I love the "just get it done" attitude that accepts no excuses and doesn't let your ego raise the bar so high you can't reach it. Good stuff.

[@Joe-gy3sv]

This was AWESOME! Please try to make more atmospheric designs tutorials. I had loads of fun with this.

[@rakkeshkiren2267]

I was procrastinating Unity for years, now you have really inspired me to get started. Keep doing what you're doing man!

[@alxdrksoul]

Are you going to make a game? What genre or what would it be?

[@DarkDiaspora]

Dude I love you, in the bro super respect way. Thank you for breaking the back of unity in my mind. I have hit a point in my noob journey and was completely feeling overwhelmed. This was just beautifully done and your flow was awesome to watch and learn.

[@dinosaurfilms7425]

Love the "hit the ground running" mentality of this channel.

[@Vitwoes]

I was just looking for a 5 - 10 min quick video to pass the time after dinner and realized that it’s been 50! Man, I loved it! And now I’m curious, I got to play your games.

[@istvanmalyar]

Dude that was just so inspiring, i just started learning unity and this kind of content keeps me on all night :). Thank you!

[@davidtourangeau]

I'm so grateful you took the time to show us the process! Just seeing you doing all this gave me the jolt of motivation to start my own game! Thnak you!°!

[@MakeIndies]

Loved the video, so many little tips that adds up to the final result of the scene. I am an Environmental Artist myself and I use Blender 3D & Unity, created 2 games and recently launched one of consoles. I am now working on another storytelling game and can't wait to see what more content you produce. Looking forward to your course as well!

[@kyleboynton2748]

Dare I say, the Bob Ross of GameDev?

I ALWAYS come back to see every video again.

[@bradperry4902]

I really enjoyed the pace of this video. I appreciate that you moved along quickly but didn’t leave out any part of the process. Very helpful for my particular skill level in Unity.

[@LukeKondor]

Wow... this bloom my mind!

[@romanberdichevskii5141]

Making things done in tight time range is a very important thing. You did really great with showing that people are able to build scene like this in just one hour! I was really impressed!

[@jprhea665]

Thanks for pulling back the curtain a little bit for us. I can't wait to play around with this stuff myself!

[@ZiliotiGames]

I've loved it, great work!

[@SnutiHQ]

I (Christer), had it in my mind for quite a few years that I would work as a colorist, as I loved correction and grading film. Ended up as compositing intern for some months, then we moved to Norway and we started our own business dong game dev in 2012... terrible idea and we love it! 🚀 I've been itching to do more color work in Unity, very inspiring seeing your process! 😊❤

[@DavidWehleGames]

That's awesome! Colorists/game developers need to stick together

[@SnutiHQ]

@@DavidWehleGames For sure, it's a rough business! 😁 Glad your sharing your journey, lots we all can learn from each other mistakes and the paths we've choice.

[@memeverifier952]

You are the best *Please upload more often*

[@psivast8007]

Thank you so much for making these videos. I don't know how many people you have or will end up helping with this channel, and even if I don't make a game your thought process helped me understand how important is to feel good about finishing something and the traps you can fall into when doing so. I hope everyone avoids those traps like being a perfectionist when time and resources are finite. Oh! And I know you'll be a wonderful and encouraging father and husband. Thanks again.

[@MsGautam44]

Thanks a lot for this, most of the tutorials i find on youtube speed level design type which are not as helpful as this tutorial was. Loved it!

[@AdminiGaia777]

amazing! thank you, i cant await to have infinite amount of free time, and finally start learning Unity, at least its installed and waiting already.

[@mockingjay9860]

Just mesmerizing!

[@iria5092]

wooooooo!!!!!!! I can not believe it. 🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷🦷

Unreal engine: We have the best graphics in a game engine Unity: Hold my beer

[@clampulp]

I have played a lot of video games in my life- I was even okay at coding at school but the thought of making a game from code seems awful to me, when I was young I would make Warcraft 3 (rip) maps a lot on the world editor and on Timesplitters 2 I loved making levels with very simple scripting. But after high school all I ever did was play games after that, I feel finding your channel is bringing back the memories I had and I always have game ideas you make me feel like I should at least give it another go among all the things I am currently learning thanks a lot for the inspiration!!

[@diegoebustamante]

You are the Unity Bob Ross

[@BlackDev]

you see an abandoned shack i see the earth retaking its life

[@jimkincaidz]

Dig it! Can't wait for GDU launch :)

[@heatvisuals]

oh snap! align with view!! thank you

[@shseriess]

Perfect!

[@Tadaisme101]

i love ur videos. its inspiring and also educative for people with no formal education for programming and game creation.

[@JordanCassady]

This atmospheric photo tutorial is my favorite video on Game Dev Unlocked. Can you do another one like this?

[@Zawazuki]

This turned out beautiful!

[@lifetimess]

holy shit. that's so helpful and inspiring for a beginner gamedev. thank you so much!

[@N1ghtR1der666]

I am following along but when I add any of any grass textures to the terrain details it paints in with a box around the grass (no transparency) the textures all look fine in the project explorer, does you know how to fix this? Also the grass doesnt blow in the wind

[@davidr007]

Found your channel and so glad I did! Totally awesome tutorial! Really appreciate your heart and motivation which is contagious :) Time to make a game!

[@blazera3griz628]

u r breathtaking

[@kinginthegreen8213]

You rock ! :) Very nice to see a real workflow ! verrry helpful!

[@jamesnorris3483]

I don't think a single person saw your reference photo, as we were all too busy laughing at his name, Kyle Quakenbush, are you serious? Quack and Bush, ha ha ha, how did so many Americans end up with such funny names, surely their ancestors were asked to leave Europe as nobody else could get anything done as they were spending too much time laughing at their names.

[@kapilsaini6540]

love your spirit.

[@PixelConflict]

Amazing job, enjoyed every minute of the video

[@werewolfpreyan]

You could start a Game Project, where all of us here on youtube, can collab and make something together. It will be fun, as well as amazing to develop a game alongside a Gamer! Hyped!

[@ajayscastro3936]

it's cool bro I loved it very much thank u for the tuotorial ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💖

[@erikgyepes]

Just amazing and so inspirative. Keep going on!

[@zapoutix]

Very nice !, but now i need to buy Aura 2

[@goncalobernardes7896]

Hi! I’m an artist and really interested in creating a game, but I can’t really bring myself to learn code, that’s why I was very interested when you talked about PlayMaker. Can you make a good game only using PlayMaker and did you use PlayMaker + code in The First Tree?

[@Justin-ax]

yes you can make a primitive walking simulator with spaghetti logic. Please learn to code friend despite what this guy says

[@goncalobernardes7896]

Thanite thanks for the response but you don’t have to be so agressive.

[@thewolfgamer]

@@goncalobernardes7896 hey, in my oppinion playmaker/bolt

[@goncalobernardes7896]

Alex thanks for the kind response!😁

[@HistoiredeGeek]

Nice stuff ! I didn't know aura it's a good reference ! Maybe a 1h video is too long for something like that, I'm much more a fan of dense videos with step by step explanation of like 10 to 15min. I would recommend you to take a look into the format of Coding aventures from Sebastian Lague videos, maybe adapting this format to something else than programming would be nice. But great video again keep going ;)

[@DavidWehleGames]

Great advice, thanks! I'm trying to find a balance between being beginner friendly and quick, not sure where that is yet

[@bijonicnicovek]

@@DavidWehleGames Nah, it was fine. I know nothing about anything, and have watched it all just cause I enjoyed how it's made aspect combined with your thought process, which I think is super important to give it context. Advice from someone on the internet, who knows nothing about anything.

[@saidaparizi922]

6:12 it is taller, yes but just the roof is taller and you are trying to make the whole barn taller.:v

[@NaniParlapalli]

45:00 in the color may be you can try making it transparent (alpha)

[@captainoats63]

Thank you for this video. I have learned a lot by watching it.

[@parishkari]

beautiful

[@InnerDriveStudios]

Very nice! Can I ask which mic you are using?

[@DavidWehleGames]

Thanks! It's the Rode NT-USB condenser mic

[@diegodaly]

Awesome video! I identify with a lot of stuff on your channel, very informative and inspirational. Anyone got the camera script right?

[@EYESOPENofcl]

Super

[@bekzhanseitkali781]

thank you

[@naveensankarr9303]

Nice

[@SNIPEDBYAMI]

can you also walk in this scene? can you make a another video showing how to walk innit etc? im new

[@sgabyss]

very inspiring... thank you :)

[@Feras_ala3nzi]

i like you // The game very naic (Your own)

[@astroahad]

I saw 3 to 4 ads .Hope it makes you alota money

[@agastyavalisetty8620]

You could have used the flooded grounds pacck's barn

[@maxgrey3694]

Looks great, but I think the mist looks too blobby. Everything else looks high quality but that mist screams game engine. I've never seen mist form blobs like that irl and it's not in the reference image so idk why you did it.

“I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.” - Bill Gates

[@tomdesmet7287]

This ridiculous quote gave us stuff like windows 2000, vista and windows 8. I also completely disagree with the quote since IMO a lazy person will not put in the extra hour to automate the task. Having a 'good enough' attitude =/= being lazy.

[@shortquts]

Tom De Smet I am not a fan of windows at all and yes you are right as well. I am also not saying he is lazy, I was just referring to the fact that he is creating stunning visuals in such a simple manner without having the need to take too much time. I myself am a lazy person in some cases but also a perfectionist on the other hand (yep, that’s possible...) I will almost always find a better way to a solution where others would spend much more time on. He is doing the same. He focuses on the most important parts and „cheats“ his way through other steps. Less time, stunning result. But it also definitely depends on your goal. Would be a problem using those tricks to create an rpg for example :)
