Unreal Engine VS UNIGINE: Which Engine Has the Better Water System?

[@NitrogenDev]

Which water system do you like more? Let me know below! If you want to watch a general comparison between Unreal Engine and UNIGINE, take a look at this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZmUpnawh7CfZ7M

[@NitrogenDev]

It's quite surreal, if I may say so.

[@iceddz]

I'm definitely an Unreal person, but boy the way Unigine looks out of the box is so damn good and refined. I wish Unreal's looked like Unigine's, but had the feature-set of the Unreal water system.

[@NitrogenDev]

Definitely something I for as well.

[@mrjean9376]

i'm very love unreal vs unigine video series!! please do more with this, bcus this both of engine that sooo great till i confuse what i have to chose for my large map based sandbox game haah xD. but i read in some post, using 64bit precision is not as practical as it heard, bcus some enginer at unreal engine said that use double even make the game run's too heavy and unoptimize to run. and they said, there are actually some kind of trick to make or simulate large precision in 32 bit by making sort of library and calculation kind of things that i dont know what is that exactly xD. cmiiw, you guys could check this discussion forums.unrealengine.com/unreal-engine/feedback-for-epic/1686769-great-but-please-a-double-precison-solution & forums.unrealengine.com/unreal-engine/feedback-for-epic/82024-what-happened-to-the-large-world-coordinate-system-feature-the-highest-voted-in-the-roadmap#post752405

I think that Unigine water is better because it looks more realistic. Also sad that you didn`t mention Unigine water physics. It is gorgerous.

[@NitrogenDev]

I am glad you mentioned this. I didn't talk about their physics, because I didn't consider it to be a factor of great importance that would make me choose one or the other. But what you said it totally true, UNIGINE's water physics is very well implemented, especially when you compare it to Unreal's primitive (for now) water buoyancy.

[@unrealist5288]

Unreal Water is from fortnite that's why it looks a bit stylized and toony. They are still working on it.

[@Marcusrafaelfet]

Well, the material can be fully adjusted to be more realistic anyway, Unreal is up ahead in other more important aspects I think, this realistic foam alone is insane

[@RB-ej8wk]

[@anecro]

Unigine's water looks so damn good, holy crap. A lot of games suffer from the "Skyrim water" look including anything - or at least most of the games - made in UE. The kind that doesn't really ever sell depth and whose foam looks very general and just smoothly disappears or weakens in a gradient type fashion, unlike real water. Unigine's oceans from what I see here have the right amount of sharpness in their graphics and get the color perfectly. I'd like to see Unigine going at UE at full force, see some mainstream competition.

[@Lyzrinn]

What I LOVE about Unigine’s water is how w when your camera is halfway in the water, the separation line between the water and the air is actually thick like it has surface tension, not a thin plane line

[@anecro]

@@Lyzrinn Yes, that too, awesome stuff man

[@markybgxxx2066]

I am not sure what engine assassins creed uses but it has really good water

[@BlueSpawn]

Unigine’s ocean looks a lot nicer. The algorithms for waves look more realistic and “dramatic.” The underwater light scattering view is also amazing.

[@NitrogenDev]

Indeed, the underwater view is simply brilliant with its underwater fog and god rays.

[@GameDevAraz]

Unigine Needs Blueprints

[@CGITanous]

I`ve tried both and Unigine`s default settings looks amazing, their foam is way more realistic even though it is not physically correct. In unreal you really have to tweak the settings to achieve something good ; foam is really hard to achieve and not very stable. Im really surprised on how there is not that many people using Unigine.

[@NitrogenDev]

UNIGINE is still relatively new in the game development side, so give it some more time and eventually, if they somewhat catch up to the bigger engines, a lot of people will start using it.

[@pmak6074]

@@NitrogenDev You know, on the other hand, no one prevents the developers of Unigine from following the path of sat down and went. What I mean is that they achieve the most realistic render settings out of the box, and the developer is provided with a small clarifying set of settings, or the opportunity to implement everything in their own way, for example by connecting a third-party render

[@Dungoan-tz1zr]

I agree! U2's default is much better than UE's, my favorite is U2's AO system, it's more accurate than UE, also has a metal shader that I think is better than UE, next is how U2 handles light with trees , it's not as flat as the UE when viewed at a distance. Now in U2.17 they have added PSDGI (Panorama Space Dynamic Global Illumination) - It's really a great lighting tool that can be considered their real-time GI system like UE5's lumens.I hope in the future they will come up with a tool similar to nanite or will treat it differently so that highpoly objects can be used. I believe they can do it. For all of the above reasons, I have decided to use U2 in my next projects in parallel with using UE, to experience 2 different styles of realtime graphics.

[@Torpedo07]

If I simulate one of these scenes on my PC I will need all the water to put out the fire in my PC 😂🤣.

Not really.. The performance is very good

[@mr.freemind1837]

No, not so, I don’t know in Unreal, it is gluttonous by itself and if the system is a little undersized there will be crashes and brakes, but Unigine behaves great on computers 7-10 years ago, and vegetation and water and all atmospheric effects, and Shadows in Unigine are practically offline rendering.

[@ristopaasivirta9770]

Great video, although skipping over the water physics made it a bit one-sided. Unigine as a whole has been aimed towards simulation, engineering and visualization so realistic physics and real-world data integration is a huge part of it, not just looking good. For gaming sure the visuals and customization are more important, but Unigine isn't used much at all in the gaming sector.

seems like theyre trying to push into the gaming market thb. would make sense considering simulations of real world things like that are becoming way more prevalent. im hyped to see where the tech goes tho, that kinda stuff is the future of gaming imo

@@ckopen7192 Yea I checked the Unigine's new C# support and it's going in the right direction. It feels pretty similar to Unity in a good way. I hope they get some big name developers to do a game project so they get more recognition in gaming space.

[@gregoryvanhulle3607]

I think Nvidia's WaveWorks was the best showing of high quality open water simulation. I lacks many features of the game engines, but Unreal's water has a long ways to go. I was frustrated that the CryEngine had it many many years ago.

[@carlpissatto1198]

The water shape, texture and physics in Death Stranding (Decima Engine) are pretty mind blowing to, especially the tar parts when you fight with EP bosses, the fluid flows along with the buildings and objects that move up and down into the ground making waves and shit, its very realistic and I never have seen this kind of stuff in others engines

[@nougatbitz]

I guess in 10-15 years every engine will have a perfectly photorealistic baseline developers and artists can work from. Creating something photorealistic will be easy and often seen in budget games. The extra work will then go in artists modifying this default photorealistic look to create something unique that stands out in the market…

I totally get you. I highly suggest trying out both to see if there's any workflow you like more.

[@devatsdb7]

all commercial engine out there none can beat unigine on ocean and water, yes spline is okay-ish if you're lone dev but for grand scheme of things unigine is automatically clip and adjust with mesh you supplied and it surrounding terrain and its parametric design is superb, the accuracy of wave and its interaction with submerged body is top notch.

[@NitrogenDev]

I agree, the ease of changing parameters and the results it can yield are great. Albeit that, I wouldn't say other engines don't have their upper hands.

[@coodeencoodeen1874]

I think they're both great with each has its own distinctive traits. Love to see both engines being implemented in future games.

[@dalexa]

@@thronosstudios there's not one plugin that can turn water into something credible in UE. Trust me, I've seen most of them. Liquids in UE are poorly managed by the engine itself, specially the interactions of objects with it and the depth volume system. They simply never put any effort into it.

You need to be a developer or a technical artist to get good results from the Unreal water. Anyone in our company can instantly get good results from Unigine water.

[@NitrogenDev]

I wouldn't say you need to be a technical artist to get a good-looking water material. You can definitely achieve something decent by tweaking the parameters of the material instance that comes with 4.26. But it's certainly easier in UNIGINE to do that.

I think UNIGINE will not compete with Unreal unless they introduce a "Visual Script" system similar to UE Blue Prints....moreover, due to lack of proper community support (Their community basically are few developers who are way proud of coding than to actually teach) it will require huge effort to become mainstream and succeed. I wish the developers of UNIGINE the best of luck, they offered an insane beautiful graphics quality out of the box, and also the only engine to support both C# & C++ -I have no idea how they were able to do that :D - but unless they introduce visual script? it will be a No-Go for me.

[@alexanderalikin1210]

Water plane in Uneal is not infinite. It is actually pretty small, you can even see the edge of it in your own video. To fake infinity they're providing a different object with different material which goes much further away but doesn't match the main ocean geometry (in a spot where they stick to each other) and also this distant ocean object is probably doesn't have buoyancy and looks ugly up close. So that means you basically can't make a game where you travel on a ship.

[@NitrogenDev]

You're right there, it is not infinite, although I think the current size will be more than enough for a lot of games. And if it's not, I imagine it would be easy to increase the size of the ocean or create a custom solution that infinitely scales.

[@NitrogenDev]

Well, I hope the whole video was worth it haha.

Unigene improved their water system in the latest 2.14

I threw my cars engine in a river, the water looks pretty good but now I can't get home.

If I create water in UE4 ... stop. If I run UE4, my computer will need water. Because it will be burning. But it’s completely different at Unigine, I’m comfortable using it, and I’m even making oceans. Unigine performance is amazing

[@NitrogenDev]

I believe because UNIGINE was originally a simulation engine, performance was one of their focus, so it's great to see such a powerful water system run so smoothly.

[@iamtibit]

not going to compare Unity to this ?

[@NitrogenDev]

I may do that one day.

[@OdemGeek]

Unity don't have built-in water.
