Hello!let's solve this. To add the hornbeams trees, you need to go in the marketplace in the epic games launcher. If you type "megascan trees," you'll find a few free collections, and one of those is the Hornbeams pack. Hope it helps!

Great to see, I am just about to watch this and see how it matches to my methods. I have only had 6 hours inside UE but a few months in Gaea. Edit: Great start for anyone who wants to start Gaea to Unreal. Great way of explaining it down to the basics. There is another way to make it to 5km with a quick bit of math in the scale. I even worked out how to get it for maps at 4033 resolution for those with a Gaea license. I will be learning more of your videos.

How do the textures from GAEA interact with a master material we want to use for our heightmap landscape? For example, if I have master material with 4 layers, grass, rocks, etc, and I import the textures from GAEA, will this textures now apply to my master material layers? Or will they only apply to the landscape? I ask because if my master material layers don’t line up exactly with textures from GAEA then the textures could look “off” (Grass textures for rocks and rock textures for grass, etc)
@UnrealverseLabsАй бұрын
Hello @Josh_Alfaro. The masks that you created on Gaea (Slope, Snowfall, Flow and so on) need the height map generated in Gaea as a Landscape to be accurate. So you need to import the height map (from the erosion node usually) to Unreal Engine and generate a landscape with it. After that you can use the masks that you create on gaea or the textures to use in your material layers directly on Unreal Engine. They will apply the material that in the material layer all over your landscape using the Gaea mask as reference. If you change the Heightmap inside of Unreal Engine the mask won't be 100% accurate and you will need some manual work painting the landscape.

@@aidz2009 hello!Might be a bug for the 5.4 preview, even though my UE 5.4 the water system is working fine. - Did you try a more stable version like the 5.3 or 5.3.2 to see if the problem persists? - Also, did you change the Water Shader properties directly on the Water Shader material from the Watersystem, if you do that all the changes that you did on the water shader will reflect acroos all your projects. If the problem is across projects the chance to be something with your Unreal version vs Computer or a change directly on the Water System is more likely.

I wanted to create multiple layers AND take advantage of the displacement. But it greyed out sections of my landscape. So when I return to my home I will research it to find out why. I suspect it's due to different heights of each texture. But I can't be certain. Also I'm curious, was the reference photo you used for this from the GOG holiday sale?

@UnrealverseLabs5 ай бұрын
Hey @michaelkukula. If you're referring to ambient occlusion (AO), you just need to use a Multiply and a Vector 1 Param to control the AO Strength. This is different from Roughness and Normal, as they function differently. Also, for AO, you don't need to isolate any channel using masks if you have the AO map alone. You would only need to isolate a channel for AO if you're using an ORD map.

@UnrealverseLabs5 ай бұрын
Oh sure, about the normals, it's a bit complicated how it works under the hood, but long story short: We need to mask each channel in the normal because each channel stores different information. Red Channel (X-axis): The red channel represents the X-axis or the horizontal direction. It determines how the surface faces left or right. Green Channel (Y-axis): The green channel represents the Y-axis or the vertical direction. It determines how the surface faces up or down. Blue Channel (Z-axis): The blue channel represents the Z-axis or the depth direction. It determines how the surface faces toward or away from the viewer. So, when we increase the intensity of the R and G values, we're increasing the intensity of how the normal vector is applied to each pixel. Then, together with the blue channel, we translate this information to the texture. I hope it helps!"

Curious your thoughts on something. I use Unreal Engine for cinematics (or rather I've been learning to), not video games. I had an idea for a scene where I have a character on a boat. The trouble is I can't seem to figure out how to control water in Unreal Engine. I had thought about one of two options. Either A: Have it play out as a game, record it that way, then make adjustments, or B: create the water as a plane in Blender, then have it move in a predictable manner and then have the boat move along it. What would your preferred method be?
@UnrealverseLabs5 ай бұрын
Hey, man. In this specific scene, I'm using the Water System Plugin from Unreal. If you haven't used it before, you need to enable it in the plugins panel. I believe the water system will be a good balance between quality and ease of setup because you can control caustics, foam, and waves with this system. Once you have some water using the water system, you can create a blueprint of your boat with a 'buoyancy' component on it. Set up the buoyancy the way you think is best, and your boat will interact with the water in real time. I hope it helps!
