Yes, I'd take a 3060 12gb over 8gb 4060. The 4060 is a faster card but the limited vram won't be great.

I'm still working on it ;)

There's no support for rotation at this time, because it breaks the normal map projection in many angles unfortunately

I think we've largely come to a point of diminishing returns when it comes to resolution. 8k tv's do exist but there is just no content being made for that, 4k is the sweetspot when it comes to films and streaming, and even then a lot of people cant tell a difference between HD and 4k when sitting far back enough anyway

I'm not saying they aren't good, but for 3D usage, they have never once been considered at any studio I've ever worked at because AMD GPU's have always been plagued with a variety off random issues, driver or otherwise. I'm sure they work fine for a lot of people, but I haven't used them in 15 years for this reason.

The stones in your level? Are you commenting on the correct video?

@@WilliamFaucher Yes William, thank you for replying. Apologies for the unclear message - I respect you tremendously and you have helped me a lot in the Unreal journey! - back to the Issue: All the foliage in my scene becomes nearly completely black after applying the fix you suggested for Ambient occlusion, completely not sure why. I am using one of mossy boulders from Quixel. Everything else in the scene seems ok, just the foliage becomes broken. What helped me with ambient occlusion was setting these two commands: r.lumen.DiffuseIndirect.SSAO 1 r.lumen.ScreenprobeGather.ShortRangeAO 0 after these I was able to control ambient occlusion from the post process v. Let me know if you know what might be case with these stones!

You dont need virtual textures if you use the appropriate non VT master material ☺️

You can! There was an update a few months ago, you can add non ARD maps ;) the regular way

And for what it's worth, ARD isn't a file format or a type of map. It's just a texture with a 3 individual greyscale maps packed into separate channels for better memory efficiency. You can make your own in photoshop easily. Almost all megascans surfaces use this approach. But like I said, you don't need ARD specifically, I added a new toggle in EasyMapper in order to allow regular greyscale maps, the like you are used to.

No, pathtracing does not work with Nanite. Displacement uses nanite tessellation, therefore, no pathtracer support. This is shown in the video here ☺️

Yeah sorry just saw that. It’s a shame it doesn’t

@@christiandebney1989 Its simply because nanite isnt “real” geometry, its all virtualized. Pathtracing needs real geo.

@@WilliamFaucher ah right! I never knew that that!

If it's truly in-game capture you're after, then I'd keep motion blur on. Adding it in post is unlikely to look very good unless you are also rendering motion vectors. And if you're doing that, you might as well just render everything properly anyway, in which case it is no longer in-game capture, it's just pre-rendered.

Haha I don't think there is any specific button or setting, it's all a combination of lots of things, lighting, composition, light, shadows, color grading, each aspect contributes to the final result in small but meaningful ways

Bear in mind this video is 3 years old, and does work in 5.0-5.1, I havent tested it in 5.4 but some things change over time unfortunately

@@WilliamFaucher Worked for me on 5.4.1..

oh thanks for the heads up, I'll look into this!

Hi there, just tested it in 5.4, and everything seems to work as intended, not quite sure what is up with your scene, but try working with the provided demo level to see if you can replicate your issue.

Sort of, up to a point. It's extraordinarily slow

Which vram error are you referring to? That should be alright, depends on your resolution you render at.

@WilliamFaucher I tried making a small indie game 1 year ago including ray tracing I did everything right but got a memory full error and unreal engine became very slow

@@iikon01 that just means you need to optimise a little ☺️

@WilliamFaucher actually I'm very bad with optimization right now Still new on unreal engine and maybe I need optimization course Ty William

You dont need ARD specifically as of the latest update! With a checkbox you can load “regular” roughness maps, ao, displacement, separately ☺️

Do you have a link to what you’re referring to?

Read the pinned comment in this video! You’ll see your concerns are moot ;)

Is he that good? First time seeing his videos
