Shouldn't virtual texture decrease shader complexity? With your material it doesn't do that.

@UnrealSensei

@@AnAncient76 Virtual textures will decrease shader complexity if using Virtual Texture caching. I didn't include VT Caching because on most computers the VT rendering will be noticeable with large parts of the landscape low resolution and we lose texture blending and nanite displacement.

Thank you for making this free. I wanted to express my appreciation for the valuable lessons I've gained from following your videos. Your insights have greatly assisted me in the process of developing my survival game.

UE 5.4. If displacement does not work try to tick "ENABLE TESSELATION" in your master material parameters. It worked for me.

That solved it. Thanks friend !!!

You are a man of his word. I was waiting for this tutorial since I read about it in your newsletter.

If anyone has a problem with the "Mask? A" checkbox then to fix it go to M_Landscape > Material Graph > Material A and in Mask A Param Tex Object change Sample Type from Masks to Linear Color. I don't know if this problem is still occurring, as I downloaded the project yesterday, but maybe this will be useful for someone.

You’re a force, man. You are so incredibly talented and as someone who wants to start a music making tutorial channel I aspire to be as informative and amazing as you in my own realm of expertise

Thanks, Zach! This has been my most anticipated UE5 video since you announced it on Discord.

This is INSANE! And you even included displacement. AND cell bombing. Like this is actually insane

Thanks for your time and effort to make these assets and to make these videos, dude. There’s a load of us early on / mid way in our journey in learning to make art with Unreal Engine and your content really helps blunt that steep learning curve. Thanks thanks thanks.

I just started using Unreal after the whole Unity debacle, and this is an absolute godsend. I had already been experimenting with your previous version, so for this update to come out now is awesome!

Fantastic - I was literally sitting down with a coffee about to start the process of figuring out how to upgrade your old auto material (which was excellent btw). Thanks once again.

This was amazing. Thank you so much for explaining everything in such detail!!! Great work!!!

Hey man just wanted to say thank you. I was working on making my own. Ran into an issue since im using 5.3 and video was for 5.0, one of the nodes no longer existed. Found this video, and was able to use your material with some edits, such as textures and ability to paint visibility to make EXACTLY what i was looking for, and then an additional hundred features. Absolutely fantastic. Thanks again.

I really enjoy your tutorials and positive attitude to ue5

this is fantastic. Thank you very much! You don't know how many people you are helping with this!

Thank you for sharing! I really loved all the collapsed nodes and how organised it gets thanks to them. Instantly used this method in my project as well :3. And your projects are always a good reference and full of great ideas :D so keep up your awesome work!

Your work and this Tutorial is more than "MASTER CLASS" ! Thank you for your amazing effort!

This is another level of using UE, thank your for the tips 🖤

WOW man, that is awesome, great job. It might be a good time for me to jump right into Unreal Engine now. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for making this! Great work Sir Sensei 🙏

Just wanted to say THANK YOU! This is a great tutorial and an awesome asset!!

First time I've ever accidentally stumbled upon a video posted less than 30 seconds ago, thanks for the video!

great job man, yesterday was thinkin when our guy wanna update autolandscape to ue5

DUDE!! I cant WAIT til get into this later today!!!!

Congratulations, man! It's an incredible asset and a great lesson in understanding the potential of UE5. Thanks for sharing it for free! Now I look forward to being your student.

I've been waiting for this update :P man you are great!

This is a work of art. Thank you so much. You've helped me a lot...

After hesitating for a while, I finally purchased the Unreal Sensei Masterclass! I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to not have to google or search KZread for every specific topic. I'll certainly leave a review when completed but if it's anywhere near as good as these youtube courses, I'm sure it'll be 5 stars. Thank you for putting all of this together and sharing your knowledge in a way we can all understand.

Thank you a ton for making this free, the video is greatly appreciated!

Myyyy man, You are best , im using your asset everywhere, its simple to modify and use, so respect from me

Dude, amazing video and excellently done. Thank you

Thanks for the great landscape material.

Thanks. Rellay looking forward to master class update and how to update pervious landscape material to support nanite displacement.

Yeah! 🎉Thank you Unreal Sensei!

I have been working on understanding automaterials and all the nodes used in it fr a while and i ave to thank you for not making me do it on my own.

Regarding specular, I watched a landscape material tutorial once that explained that in real life that specular response is something that dissipates over a certain distance, and he had a way of emulating that (so up close there’s the usual specular response and at a certain distance it reduces, eventually to zero) and it looked really good. I can’t for the life of me find that tutorial now though.

thank you was looking for this havent seen you in a while

Great stuff! Thanks Unreal Sensei!

Fantastic! Thank you so much!

Thank you! This is amazing! 😁

Thanks for the free material! Will you make a tutorial on pcg with sampling of the material layers? That would have been amazing :)

This is BAD ASS! Thank you!

Wow, thank you for sharing this! ❤

wow my guy. you are so awesome forr putting out this tutorial and this TOOL period. and thank OH MAN THANK YOU SO MUCH for making it free. that is so amazing and your tutorials are the ONLY VIDEOS WHICH HAVE ACTUALLY INSTRUCTED ME FROM ZERO KNOWLEDGE to making my own blueprints THAT WORK!!!!! in a few days. thank you so much!!!!

i enabled the nanite displacement. mannn that stuff is costly on a 2.5km terrain. brought my little 3070ti to its knees lol. but hey, looked good. lol but dang clearly gonna have to wait til 5.4 to play around with that. Great series by the way. Only complaint I have is in the unreal masterclass I wish you would elaborate more over things as you cover them and implement them. just a minor gripe otherwise I have learned quite a bit, but going to take a while to wrap my head around what everything means in blueprinting and how they work together. that will come with time I guess.

OMG, man, thank you so much. A lot of good karma for you dear! I learned a lot in this video and your shared project. Hope good things for you! Thank you!

That was lots of great information , thanks!

Just what i needed, thank you a lot!

How different the steps in this video is compare to the first one in UE5.0 beta says a lot about how much Unreal Engine progressed since the first release of UE5.0 Unfortunately I can't use any of this cool tech because my Laptop couldn't even run UE5.0 😢 Anyway, As always another great video. Keep up the good Work man

You are the Sensei. Very good and thank you very much !

We need a PCG tutorial from you!!!

I highly recommend his master class

As always, Zach's tutorials are the best on KZread. Unfortunately, I think I'm going to need to wait for 5.4 because my current project landscape is 4K and I'm too far along to make changes that could break it. I'm looking forward to using this tutorial when 5.4 is released and I start my next project. Thanks again, Zach!!

I love this freebie thing

Awesome!!! Thank u so much

Very much appreciated.

Thank you!

I definitely agree that Nanite Displacement on Landscapes is a big deal, but there are some issues for games. - Performance hit is too big, 30% fps loss. - Collision. Those displacements don’t have collision, the player basically walks through the rocks and higher displacements. But still it is super impressive, can’t wait to see what Epic will make out of this in future :)

@Fafhrd42

5 ай бұрын

Yeah, Nanite displacement is not a production ready feature, and isn't even technically a 'preview' feature. There's no documentation for it, there are a bunch of comments in the Unreal source code saying not to turn it on, and there are a bunch of GPUs that it doesn't even work on.

Best tutorials !

Absolutely awesome automaterial! I have used it many times for personal projects and it works great but currently I am a bit stuck as I have recently started experimenting with procedural mesh components for procedural generation, however, I have not been able to get this automatterial to work on those meshes. Does this type of automatterial have support for that? or is it only useable on landscape meshes? Edit: I had replaced the landscape blend layer with a blend matterial node for textures A and B and while it is not as good with the results are the original (because I am not 100% sure what to do with the alpha for that node) it does work to a degree

Amazing
