    your tutorials always show interesting tips and technics! and i like how you show how easy it is to make something yourself while more often people just tell "go find ready and just use it", which can take even more time than doing that myself xwx i started in 3d from zero with your barrel tutorial this july and im still learning it, and it goes very well while watching your videos or by someone who can also shows like you that i can do something good quality even at first time if i will take one step at a time

    VERY IMPORTANT: Turn off Nanite before vertex painting. It won't work if nanite is enabled on the mesh.

    17:28 in that outro example, are those 3 materials (painted wall, plaster, wood)? If so, anyone know how he got that automatic gradient between the 3 as he painted with 1 vertex color? It seems like 1-.66 = paint, .66-.33 = plaster, .33-0 = wood.

    Hey, Ive been asked this a few times, its an old experiment, ill try to find the file and link you the node setup. But if I recall, it was taking the vertex blend gradient and stacking the height maps so one would appear first on the lightest areas, then the gradient mid grey would show the crumbled plaster and then the wood would be the darkest areas. I think that's it. Ill check when I get a moment.

    Hmm, I hadn't noticed that, you could possibly put it into one of the other channels i guess and then split the blended result back out into the second height lerp, but if you don't need more than one height texture just use the one height lerp.

    You'd need to take the asset into substance painter and create multiple texture sets (one for each style you want to vertex paint) and then set them up as-per this video. For an existing mesh and without the tools to make your own textures, I guess you could experiment with using the existing baked texture set as one layer, and plug-in tiling textures for other layers, though results may vary

    If by that, you mean vertex painting? It's so you can have full customization within the engine, you can have 100 copies of the same wall side by side and paint directly in UE till your heart's content so that not a single one looks like a repeat.

    You can also use the Alpha channel of the RGBA - and you can also have a base texture. So 5(ish) layers should be achievable with this technique.
