You are a legend for doing this buddy 🤗

[@CamIsMac.]

@@badxstudio doing this keeps me accountable for completing the series. Plus I really want to learn UE and you guys make it fun and less intimidating 💯

[@polatkemalakyuz2021]

I go back than watch and apply with combinations 3rd time. Now I feel such a smooth control on these basics and I don't feel Unreal such a hard puzzle anymore. These tips even helps to 80 percent of base of my many basic projects about instance materials, randomness to texture, overlay normals etc. I can tell what changed, I feel myself a user with some comfort. Probably that was the one of main goals. Thank you guys for the way you are doing.

[@jakenorbs]

This is seriously one of the best tutorial series I've ever seen.

[@NeedABigrHammer]

You guys are fantastic. I’m working on my degree in game development and I have learned more from you in these videos than I have in 3 years of school. You explain things in an excellent and understandable way

[@badxstudio]

So incredible to hear about your experience with this series ❤️ the goal was to do exactly that! Thanks for telling us

[@marcusp5345]

Commenting for the algorithm. First video had like 400k views, and we are down to 55k here. Just shows you the commitment people have.

[@nimaheydarzadeh]

Thank you both for this amazing tutorial ❤

@@badxstudio I clicked on the link to go to the JSplacement website and it says the archives are down or something. Does that mean I can't finish this tutorial?

[@Franksjonathan35]

This information is confusing as hell, but you guys make it much easier. Need to watch this one a few times though!

[@jeremyjohngraham]

The times I tried to learn unreal in the past I got completely stuck in the material node section and pretty much gave up. Appreciate you guys for making it fun, and accessible, I think I'm going to get it this time!

[@АндрійЖарій-ш7л]

It's amazing Tutorial, I covered lot of them for different programs, and those guys are the best

[@MilitantM0m]

these videos are amazing. you're giving me life changing lessons here, I know im some random nobody online but just know this random nobody is using these lessons and others like it to turn dreams into realities.

[@unalcelik1144]

I am late for the party but still I'd like to give my props to you guys. I've been in learning and teaching journey for about 6 years as a programmer but what you are doing is amazing. Straight to the information with fundamental explanations what's going on behind the doors, without boring us. It's making me smile and feels like knowledge just flooding in my brain. I suggest you could also teach teachers how to teach :) Thanks for all so far, and I challenge myself to write another comment at the end of the series. See you there )

[@lidestudios5094]

I’ve watched and followed through 5 videos today I’m starting to get addicted but this is FUN Can’t wait till we get to animation part and all that. I gotta take a break for today though ;-;

[@GameForgerr]

You Guys are Wonderful and Thank you for this series and iam still continuing

[@makanansari144]

Guys your normal maps from JS Placement app needed to be inverted either in the app or in Unreal! they are protruding rather indenting! 19:22 :) keep up the good work.

[@Argon369]

Bro I cant use Jsplacement it showing Trojan when downloaded and web is showing Displacement X Please Help

[@AzureSkyzs]

Yes the download is Trojen which is weird but on the web you have to click the grid in the top left to open the menu

[@viktorbakai]

@@Argon369 Just open web link and click on the squares on the top left corner and choose JSplacement: DotGrid. Thats all.

[@A_Zero-user]

Now I have learning many things so much more then what I expected!!!! Thank you

[@rubberdog]

Another totally awesome tutorial, you guys make it seem so easy...and fun. Enjoying learning from you guys...'Mixing Normals'...I never knew that 10/10

[@badxstudio]

Our pleasure buddy... Happy you are enjoying this!

[@kevintan5976]

Dear Bad Decisions Studio, your tutorial has been a great help for an 0 unreal knowledge people like me to learn it. I have one question that really bothering me and I cant find the answer on the internet. In your Dart Maul video we saw you modified the shape of the body but not the proportion of the body as in the height and such. would that be possible in Unreal to change the proportion of the metahuman body without destroying the rig. Lets say we want our character to be more stylized you know like Bayonetta proportion. Thankyou for the awesome video. Im not sure if you will respond to this comment but in case you read it perhaps one day you could do another video tutorial. thankyou for your hard work

[@_bymahi_]

Thank you for your awesome tutorials😍👌👌

Love you Mahi

[@stellaachenbach]

Yessss back :) ... it's been a lot of fun so far!

Anyone still having trouble with the UV's ? i got the curved edges smoothed out, but the edges along the extruded pillars are picking up the light weird

[@stankbugmusic]

When I goto download JSPlacement, the link takes me to a "broken" version and suggests I use displacement X instead. did you encounter this and did you go with the displacement X? or the "broken" JSPlacement?

[@henrikstaaf3293]

You guys are freaking awesome!!! One questions though, I can't get the JS placement thing to work as I'm unable to download it off the web. Could you add the textures you used in this tutorial to your links in the description! Stay beautiful!

[@samlavi]

Perfect! Thanks

[@MqsRafa]

Yeahh! Thanks again guys

[@DarkGhoul9]

Hello, Great tutorial thank you! i just have one issue regarding importing materials from Quixel Bridge, since UE added Fab it's kind of different from what we have in the video ( they have textures called Gloss, Mask,...) I'm not sure what's the equivalent in what we have in the video. Thanks again!

[@rajivchandel1393]

Thank you friends

[@TheNomadicMile]

I need help. When i use JSplacement, the height image downloads as a PNG as intended. However the Normal saves as a File and i am unable to import it to my content drawer. Done some googling and cant seem to get anywhere. Id really like to finish this tutorial series. Any suggestions?

I cant instal JSplacement on Mac.... also the web version is down

how to understand that frame rates to identify my computer is going to crashed either frame rates increased or decreased? because on my pc frame rates are decreasing and showing red color frame rates instead of green when decreasing.

bro love ur channel but could you please do a tutorial about unreal engine 5 rigging and etc? how to add bones and animate / how to parent object and metahuman riggig also. and i downt know how to parent object like in blender. if i add a car the tyre, bumber , mirror all are sep not parented how to fix this?

Hey guys! Find a possible solution to add shadows and lighting for gaussian splatting. I've found something like volumetric ray matching. Maybe it can work with splats? Please we need to move on with this technology! Thank you for the amazing vids ❤

[@mahshad9207]

Dear Faraz and Farhad, When I enter the normal section in Attribute tab and follow the tutorial, those ugly shapes will disappear but right when I press accept, those ugly shapes on curvy points come back. Is it normal?

[@StevePaulSounds]

about to start the tutorial - I'm scared 😂

[@StevePaulSounds]

ok it was actually easier than the last one!!! 😮‍💨

[@espen990]

I have some confusion regarding the material UV tiling. In blender, the UV's are unique for each object. To scale the UV of the material on an object, you change the UV size of the object, without changing the material. But here, we need to change the "MF tiling" of the material instance whenever we want to scale the UV... what if I have a complex scene with hundreds of differently scaled objects using the same material, that each need a custom UV scale? Do I need a material instance for every single one...?

[@trooper-talk]

I need to be able to make a spaceship!!! Or do you want to collab? Or is there a pre-set of spaceships and cockpits?

[@vger2]

One tip: you needn't add the extra parameter and multiply node to the emissivity to make it glow. You can just click on the emissive color and in the Value field (as in H for Hue, S for Saturation and V for value) just type a number higher than 1. The slider won't let you take it higher than 1 but you can type a higher value, like 10. Same result. Fewer nodes. 🙂

[@gravemistakes8427]

I clicked on the link to go to the JSplacement website and it says the archives are down or something. Does that mean I can't finish this tutorial?

[@dopustim517]

Сейчас там все хорошо, но если что ты можешь продолжить и без этого, просто будет выглядеть не очень эстетитчно

[@wolvezz9282]

It says that i'm over the texture streaming pool budget by however many MiB and this messes up my texture when adding the RGB node and the multiply node for the texture that was generated from JSplacement. Is there any way I can fix this? my texture is now smooth and the details have been completely removed.

[@wolvezz9282]

Update!! I was able to fix the pool size by going into the files and changing the size but my dots from the generated wall texture are not showing up and I'm not sure why :(

[@iiml5w9ii33]

Everything worked out well for me except I don't understand how they use multiply and blueprint with colors and understand the results like it's math, how would I know a light blue and a light red would give me like more shadow or something, I am so dumb

[@RithulSudarson-f5r]

i can't use js placement could any of you tell me

[@marvinbadalanimations9182]

How come you did not have to UV unwrap the models you modeled in UE ? and why did you not use a post precessing volume ? Thanks for the tuto's bro's.

[@badxstudio]

6:00 minute in we do UV Unwrap :D Please check it out! And post process volume is coming in a later chapter we cover it completely and in detail alongside render settings for raytracing and pathtracing. That's one of our most important chapters that we are uploading tomorrow. And you are right ... Post process volume should be added in the beginning of every project, but since this was made for beginners we had to cover modeling and materials before we could show the effect of bloom and exposure and so on in the scene.

[@unreal_enginemail]

can you cover the fur materials??

[@samwisegalenorn]

I looked at JSplacement , and it seems like I could write a program in C# to replicate that functionality. I'll try to do that, generate a random image with specifications and filters, then save that image and the normal map.

[@samwisegalenorn]

Using C#, I created it. It can extract a normal map from an image.

[@AryaArya-fc1qg]

Hey guys! been following the unreal tutorial until part 8! soooo awesome.. Thank you so much! i actually want to ask something tho.. do we need to have a great PC setup? Mine is currently running on a GTX 1050 with 32GB DDR2 RAM and an Intel Core i5 processor. The engine still seems capable enough for me to follow the tutorial up to this point, but I'm worried that when I use 'lit' mode, the FPS drops to around 24 FPS and turns yellow. Is it okay for me to continue with this tutorial, guys?

[@dopustim517]

да

[@StalNetune.Production]

I can't add the rgb node

[@the-secrettutorials]

Shouldn't the scratches on the metal be finer in order for the walls to look huge?
