[@LucyKosaki]

The scenes look pretty nice, but by searching for level design I was kinda looking for tips and infos about things like how to make maps interesting to explore, easy to orientate and not getting lost, what to avoid to not break immersion, how to make terrain changes and textures more natural looking and how to make the world feel more vast and open than it actually is.

[@TheMeanArena]

Correct, this isn't level design. It is set piece design. Huge difference.

[@HoloOfficial]

I know it's been said multiple times in the chat, but this isn't technically 'Level Design'. It's Environment Art. An easy mistake to use the wrong terminology, but given you have that many viewers, it would be appreciated if you did use the correct terminology as you are introducing many out there to the world of Game Development (as well as other mediums). Level Design takes many other factors when developing an environment, usually focused around the game you are making. As an example, if you are making a Tank game, you will need to consider how much space the tank needs to move, the min/ max steepness of a surface the tank can traverse, destructible within the environment, line of sights, objectives, AI and their navigational spaces, points of interests, etc. Environment Art is (to put it simply) used to make a space look great & tell a story. There are obviously more layers to it than that, but (and going back to the point), the work you create fits into the criteria of Environment Art and also maybe Concept Art. Thanks for reading this, and I hope it helps you out. Thanks :) Ps, Sweet environments man. A great way to get motivated to creating more personal content!

The reason why now is because I've been mostly giving more focus using unity than ever before.

[@mechanicaltimi123]

You can use shaders to add life to a scene. Falling leaves, butterflies etc. When your natural environment is animated via wind, its good practice to use models that move as well. For example, the house/cottage in this video has ivy growing on it, but it never moves so it appears out of place and breaks the emergent feeling of this scene. Selecting a base asset and adding the vegetation separately allows you to have movement on otherwise static buildings. Or also, try to find creative ways to view the structure where its not out of place, in this example the structure is obviously out of place and breaks the intended feeling.

Even when i was at school it was hardly mentioned but has come to be one the most important aspects of game design.

[@Psychentist]

I stuck through the whole vid because there is some very useful information here, but I have to say: These are environments, not game levels. Game levels are concerned with the logic of gameplay. They have game mechanics in them that are designed to challenge the player. There's a whole field of theory on good practices and flows, and LEVELS are usually put together with placeholder art beforehand, in order to test the logic and game mechanics of the LEVEL design. Once all of that is worked out, then you use the pretty assets and move your GAME LEVEL into your ENVIRONMENT. That said, I again point out that this is great information for creating ENVIRONMENTS. Just a little rant about the misleading title. :)

he's making a static scene, and since it's one static frame (note he barely touches the camera itself), you choose the scaled based on what looks good on camera view. but while doing this for ingame scenes, you actually need to take care of scale of other objects too and how they'll interact. for example: doesn't make any sense having a house 15 times bigger than the player :P

[@wooze2007]

First thing I thought of when I read this comment kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5iqpJqtf7FrmJo

[@Real_MisterSir]

The thing is, when you see through a screen you lose the sense of distance - just like camera recordings. This makes it preferable to manipulate sizes and other things to appear more realistic, even though you are technically making them less realistic. Ever tried standing in a valley with surrounding mountains that feel like they envelop you completely? Now record that with a videocamera and all the mountains will appear smaller and further away and in general lose some of their majestic feel. This exact same thing happens in videogames and environmental concept art, which is why many developers and artists take liberations with their sizing of distant objects to manipulate the feel of reality. These techniques are very widely used in both AAA games as well as many movies with cgi scenes - and a lot of people new to concept art and environment art see these techniques but then they overdo them and it ends up looking obvious. The key is always to manipulate reality just to the point where you can't tell that it's not real. Too many inexperienced people just tend to go beyond that threshold and their scene manipulation becomes too obvious and disturbing to look at. So TL:DR; manipulate reality, but be aware to maintain a realistic sense of scale and don't go overboard.

[@jonwatte4293]

Instead of increasing the scale of the far objects, narrow the camera FOV. The default fov on games is ultra wide angle. In Unreal, I'll plop down a cinematic camera which still has "wide" fov (28mm focal distance) but that's half the fov of the game camera.

[@FirebladeXXL]

not at all what i was looking for. making a scene or a concept for an environment is no level. like when you work for clients, wont they just redo everything from scratch with your idea in mind to make it playable? it does look beatiful however. so no critizism about your work.

Hey Sykoo ! Great vidéo ! I have a question, maybe you can make it a topic for a next vidéo, I think it's a huge issue : I'm using the same method as you do for level design (I'm using Rock and Boulders + Quixel). But my scenes are usually huge and I don't want to lower the detail level for that. When placing rocks and boulders assets for example, there is a huge amount of faces that the player will never see because it's hidden underneath the terrain, or occluded by other rocks. My solution for that is to send the model into my favorite 3D software, select the visible faces manually and then combine all the rocks together. But it's soooo long to do that, and you eventually end up with deleted faces because the initial selection can't be perfect. Same for trees and grass, they have such a huge impact on my framerate that I came to avoid making forest scenes. To summarize my questions : how do you optimize your level design so it can run smoothly, once the art part is done ? Any tips for making it fast, or faster than usual ? It's seriously so frustrating when you make great art, then playtest the scene and realize it's running at 15 fps :') (and having a very good computer, I know it's my fault so it's even worse haha)

I guess you can make more assets for the same objects and place the unreachable, simpler ones in the scene.

This video would be much better if you would share the information of which assets you used to create such cool levels. So it would be really nice get to know which assets you used, pleaaaaseee :)

Please how did you create the objects like the trees, grasses etc, cuz I saw you dragging it.

Interesting points, Sykoo do you have any advise for people who want to use Unity3D for strategy games? And do you have any recommendation for assets?
