Wow such kind words! Thank you.
Awesome tutorial. I tried Dash right when it came out and saw they have a ton of tutorials out now and the add-on has been heavily worked on. It's such a great tool. I did have a question slightly related though: when should you use a procedural foliage spawner vs a PCG volume? I know a lot of factors go into answers for that. I've heard the foliage spawner is more performant for some things PCG but I couldn't find any concrete answers regarding it. You work with these tools a lot so I figured you might have a good grip on it.

Ooh that is a great question! From my perspective, looking at big picture, I think epic means for PCG to eventually replace the foliage volume. That is just a sense I have. In terms of performance, I think it is comparable for modern machines because they are soooo much better at rendering polygons and if we are switching over to nanite in the future, then it makes sense to just use meshes with PCG. However, at the moment we are ins weird in-between period. That is just my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt. I will say speaking of dash, they they do have a function to covert all of you meshes you have scattered into foliage which it think is pretty useful for people that want to go that route. Hope that helps
I think you just convinced me to give DASH a try man. I love the creative use of "cables" too!

Great run through, thank you, also really great to get that understand around where/when to use PCG vs your method here. Hoping to get Dash working with 5.4 soon!
Cool. Dash is very effective tool. Thanks for sharing your tips!

Amazing content. I’ve been following your tutorials are they’re pure gold. I am having trouble with filling my entire map with the PCG tool though. Do you just make your surface sampler cover the whole map? And how do you deal with the lag? It’s bogging my computer down a lot at this point, and pushing the my texture streaming pool too high
Im definitely inspired to pick up this workflow 😄

@@azielarts I think it would be really helpful to have a video tutorial on how to capture screenshots of a virtual environment. The tutorial should cover useful techniques, such as camera placement to capture multiple angles of the environment, explain whether it's necessary to set up another camera to document the environment-building process, and how to stay within Artstation's 10MB image limit (free plan). Additionally, it would be useful to receive information about the best settings to use for high-quality screenshots and how to minimize any quality loss during exporting. I know there's a screenshot tool in Unreal, but having a tutorial for it would be helpful, as well as other options. It would also be great if you could explain your process for capturing screenshots.
Is this environment ideal for an actual game? More importantly, can it still look this good and still maintain great performance in a game?
@azielarts
4 ай бұрын
Yes absolutely you could definitely make a few adjustments and this environment would be very performant for games. I would probably drop the texture resolution on the foliage a bit( right now they are much higher than they need to be. Then I would use a converter inside dash to switch everything I had placed to foliage actors. Depending on the target hardware I would bake lighting. Then you should be good to go.
Looks good but I refuse to purchase subscription services, if I can't get Dash in UE Marketplace where I know I'll permanently have access to it I'll pass. UE 5.4 PCG Biomes basically do the same Great Vid though!
