Hey guys, in today's video I'm going to be showing you how to create a realistic material for your landscape that allows you to pain on textures AND it will automatically pain a cliff texture when the landscape exceeds a certain angle.

Hey, i really like your video but i am stuck at some point, maybe you can help me :) I just did everything the same you did in the video except for the specular part. The Problem is now that i only have the texture of the cliff on my map. Also in the landscape mode, all of the layers are just the texture from my cliff texture. I dont know how to fix that.

@artemissnow6051 Жыл бұрын

I figured out the fix, at least in my game! I set the bias back to 0 instead of -2.2 and it fixed the issue for me.

@kristiyandichev3581 9 ай бұрын

I had the same problem and at 14:34 he said he messed up the values for BlendBias and Sharpness. Sharpness should be 7 and Bias Should be -2.2 in the "Default Value" box instead of "Min slider" box. After I applied and saved I reset the values on my Instanse to default (-2.2 / 7) and it started working as intended.

Hi Matt. Great tutorial as usual. However, I have a question: is there a way to use this auto landscape with a grass node? When I try, I spawn grass as it should, but it considers the ENTIRE LANDSCAPE as grass texture regardless of what texture I then paint over it, be it sand, cliff, rock, etc. Obviously, I would like to paint over the existing terrain with a specific texture - useful for when adding different sounding footsteps or setting what texture animals can roam on, etc. Hopefully this is a rather simple question to answer. Cheers again.

Hey Matt, I'm trying to use Megascan's useless ORD texture with this and I'm not sure how possible it is. Any suggestions of an ORD texture in place of a specular?

@WhitespaceFilms 11 ай бұрын

The green channel on the ORD controls roughness. It's basically just the inverse of specular in this case. I used the megascan surfaces with the ORD image, and just plugged the Green channel in where he puts the specular. The higher the number in that value, the more rough (less specular) it ends up.

@BooneyianLogic Жыл бұрын

Have you tried this in the 5.1 version of unreal? I followed along, and none of the parameters seem to effect the material in any meaningful way. I checked to see that i had the landscape set to the Material Instance, that was fine. trying to adjust how much grass or sand is not working for me on an open world map.

@Robonator14 Жыл бұрын

Same issue here on 5.2. It does not work at all and all i get is just the rocky cliff texture, which i can not adjust in any way and all the 3 layers say they are empty after i did the "non weighted blend" option.

@JHinsonMusic 7 ай бұрын

Same here. Came back to Unreal from 5.0 when 5.3 was released and I find displacement doesn't work for landscapes in packaged products and the old way of creating my auto landscape material no longer works. Awesome!@@Robonator14

Hey. In ther video you made about how to make a stamina system and sprint i loved it!!! but there is one problem. After i made it when i walk bagwords the camera shakes and the charecter shakes so do you know what could fix it? And thanks for all the videos you make they help me a lot :D

@MattAspland Жыл бұрын

Hey! I believe that is an issue with the animations you are using. You could try smoothing the movement, or the animations themselves. Or try smoothing the camera movement based on character movement. So you need to move more before the camera follows if that makes sense.

3 Criticisms - 1) because you are editing, you can always just edit your mistakes out. Which makes it better for learning as this is a tutorial 2) Use proper textures (such as megascans) for demonstration purpose. The 3 you chose for this video is quite awful. And they are extremely tiled even on ground level. 3) Always start from scratch. And not "oh I made this already so I'm gonna do something else now" - always start from A - Z BUT all in all good video!

To everyone having issues in 5.0 +, the landscape object should have children. Select all of its children, and set the material in there.

Yup that's exactly what I'm getting too :( I don't blame Matt, it really hard making tutorials for a constantly moving goal post eg. Unreal Engine 5, by the time they've worked the blood sweat and tires out of their collective finger tips, here Epic comes again to changing the whip and cause these poor tutorial makers yet more suffering, it's almost sadistic, I'm all for innovation & progress but not that the cost of a constantly moving product no one ever rightly knows how to use.
