I uploaded the Blender 4.2 EEVEE NEXT test scene from the video on my Patreon (bit.ly/45D5A1Q) Download the Blender Scene you support my channel.

Thanks for the video, but for comparison purposes it would be much better to just show two screenshots, side by side, than switching from eevee next to cycles, which then just shows noisy process of rendering in cycles.

Nice video! Have you enabled shadows in the world property > settings > Sun? In that tab you can adjust the 'Threshold' - it a threshold for the brightness of a HDR image used as a shadow casting light. The 'angle' value softens the shadows. It gives you much more Cycles like HDR/dome lighting.

Eevee Next has slightly different settings than the legacy.

@@cgslav HDRIs can cast shadows on EEVEE next now but you have to enable it in the world settings So you don't have to create a fake light and sky image for that anymore

but its still look like from video game.

let me speak from my heart - хороший подбор сцен для демонстрациии новых возможностей рендерера, но произношение явно в стиле нашей славянской языковой школы

You misunderstood, this is not the English pronunciation club.

Man it would probably be best to go Eevee 2 on backgrounds and Cycles for hero assets, right? Wonder if there's a proper workflow for something like that, it'd be amazing for animation imo I know it's not fully ironed out, but Eevee 2 is astounding so far

In this scene, I used cycles assets. It works well but considering that it is eevee I would make some adjustments to the materials.

@@cgslav Oh yeah yeah for sure, just meant like, the fidelity is so solid for the most part, it might be good for cross-compositing, where the backgrounds or lesser assets could just be done in EEVEE2 even when aiming for high fidelity I wish I could explain it, like I've seen some do it with classic EEVEE using shadowcatchers for hero assets rendered in cycles to cut down on rendering it all in Cycles even if they were compositing This was a wonderful showcase of what the upgraded EEVEE can do, it's pretty amazing, thank you so much for the examples, it was really insightful

4.2 Beta produces a constant crash at my recent scene.

I also had some problems with 4.2, but I reinstalled Blender 4.2 with default settings without using settings from the previous Blender version. Maybe it will help you too.

Oh man, can you leave out the word "realism" in videos like this? What does what is shown here have to do with realism? The village, including the textures and materials, look like something from a 2012 game. Realism is in a completely different league, guys. It's not meant in a bad or derogatory way, but it feels like every second video is about realism and the bottom line is that, with very, very, very few exceptions, all you see is blah, blah and hot air.

Are you telling me what realism is?)) Everything in this video is about Eevee and progress of Eevee.

​@@MarcoHayek Technically the video is accurate, I think your more focused on the scene that is being displayed, then what's being explained as the achievement of being able to do path tracing, displacement, reflections etc in evee next, to produce more realistic renders.

@MarcoHayek In this case this is relevant title. Btw, you mentioned about graphics of 2012 years games. I so interested in what games you can say with realistic graphics in our days. Can you name them?

@@cgslav Basically, everyone has a different idea of what realism is for them. Personally, I don't know of any game that comes close to my idea of realism. The only game that goes in the right direction would be "Cyberpunk 2077" with appropriate hardware. But even then, there's still a lot of room for improvement. However, I have to admit that although I enjoy playing a good game now and again, I'm not a hardcore gamer.
