I think the most useful thing that has been completely glossed over when world partition has been demoed is the world partition grid setting when generating the landscape. You can specify the world partition grid size to match the sections per component instead of scaling the world partition grid after the fact
I've probably done ten landscape material tutorials, all helpful. But this is the best I've seen, the way you start from the beginning, explain what things are doing, then expand outward to add new facets. Other times I've just "made" a material; this time I actually learned how. Thanks!
Definitely the best tutorial out there in terms of landscape. Thank you 🇿🇲
Super useful and incredibly detailed! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for just this week. Thanks so much for putting this together. I like that you’ve included an intro to Gaea as well. Their documentation is really lacking, so this helps.
This is an amazing tutorial! To me it seems to be the only one that covers everything from start to finish. I learned so much from watching it. Sadly sometimes the audio stutters on my device, but everything was still clear as you were talking slowly. A lot that my brain has now to process. 😉

Awesome! Incredibly detailed tutorial, Thanks for covering all the different topics. 1:02:08 If you use Normalized instead of Raw in Range type then you'll get less sharp edges in the landscape. Useful for closeups and games. You should try the latest version of Gaea( 1.3 bleeding edge) which has a lot of amazing stuff added.
I appreciate the authenticity and sincerity in your content.

thank you very much the most working but clean up not working but still thx you very much that was realy helpful!
I can't find the tutorial where you go over the landmass blueprint brush. It seems like the right tool for what Im wanting to make but I have some problems with it. I want to make cliffs but with a sharp 85 degree or more falloff. But when I do that I lose all the displacement noise filter on the sides. So the sides don't have much texture or anything. Just a flat surface. Not sure how else to go about making cliffs like that. For now Im just looking through Bridge and trying to piece some together and hope I find something that I like.

This is such an awesome tutorial, just wish I could get past the 1:03:00 min mark. I downloaded GAEA 1.2.1 so I could follow along 100% and in UE 5.0.1 the heightmap resolution shows 127 x 127 whereas yours shows 2032 x 2032. I set my parameters to the exact same as yours and I just get odd shapes. Even reinstalled UE 5.0.1 just to be sure, but it seems I get the same result.

Hey, I'm new to Unreal Engine 5 and finding your tutorials extremely informative. One issue I've run into though is where you go into project settings and enable world partition, in the current version of UE (5.2.3) there is no such setting under project settings. Has this been moved somewhere else in newer versions? Should I be worried about it?

I just found out we can collapse nodes so they combine into 1 node.. hahhaaha.. doesn't seem to break anything, however I noticed when the collapsed node contains named reroute nodes .. the end nodes must be plugged into layer blend first it seems?? Anyway, now my landscape material is really OCD optimised 😂 Oh and also, I changed the scale of my landscape to 25x25x25 so the size of the squares are smaller..however I increase the resolution to compensate.. this makes sculpting really powerful, and landscape effectively zero difference in size, but 4x more detailed 😎at first this didn't really make sense to me so I hope this helps if you're new too

Landscapes are very useful when having the right material. If you want to do level design they are great. But it all depends on your project really, for now Landscapes are not fully integrated for UE5 world partition so we should wait a bit until they add some features
