- Welcome back to another video! I hadn't recorded a level design in some time so I thought it would be nice to get back into it. This scene was only meant to be a small static shot of an archway, however, it grew into a much more ambitious project with me ending up making a small cinematic using cinemachine. I think the whole scene came out really well, what do you guys think?
Don't forget to turn on captions if you want to see some design insights.

This quality is incredible. This video made me want to bring out Unity and start designing beautiful landscapes again.
Thanks 😊, it's awesome to hear that this video inspired you to create some landscapes yourself!
Me too
It will be so Great if you Come to my Channel Watching my Videos subscribe me and enjoy.
Do it now
or I will come for your Soul in midnight
@@aranna5372 Oh well. Take my soul, I don't need it anyway.
@@Quesbe that's my Boy
َAnyway
Come and see my Videos
Your videos are really relaxing and calming. Its also a huge inspiration for me to get better with making levels like these. Looking forward to the next upload!
I always try to make these videos relaxing to watch, I'm glad to hear that it is working. It's also awesome to hear that they inspire you as well 😊
I just learned to put a tree in Unity! This is so inspiring...and overwhelming lol! Thanks for sharing!
It will be so Great if you Come to my Channel Watching my Videos subscribe me and enjoy.

@@aranna5372 Stop talking this sh**.
Being a game dev, i know how hard is this to make a scene like this. Awesome man. You have done a great job.
Only started watching your videos a couple of weeks ago. This one is unbelievable, it's fantastic. The attention to detail is what I really love. Looking forward to trying something like this myself!
That's awesome to hear, thanks. It's also awesome to hear that the video inspires you to try it out yourself 😊
Unreal developers will also get a shock after watching your videos. Specially level designs. Superb.
This is more Environment Art than Level Design because Level Design is more about designing of what will happen on mechanics of the level in fact like putting collectables, enemies, traps, where player can walk, when he have to jump, run, etc. Level interactions in general. But great work on Environment setup, lightning setup and cinematic! :D
Totally agree with you, however, unfortunately the general audience on TH-cam assumes these types of videos when you say level design. If I use environment art or design people tend to think it is just a 3d modelling tutorial.
the background music is cradling me 😍🙌🏾
I do wonder. where do you get all the "ready" objects? (trees / wall / stones etc.). Do you design them in photoshop somehow and upload them?, or is there some kind of "ready" library you can use.
can't stop loving your videos, it looks like a master piece and you make it look so easy
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊
What did you use to make the video at the end? Unity Recorder or something else?
Yep, Unity Recorder with Cinemachine :)
Subscribed! Was this done using HDRP? Or is this the default renderer? If so, are you using a post processing stack? I'm trying to understand why it looks so good beside your great design work..
The most underrated channel on TH-cam.
Haha, thanks 😊
Beautiful work man! You inpired me to get into trying to make landcapes and nature scenes!
That's awesome to hear, and thanks 😊
what a great work!!!! How did you make the camera animation as at 6:15.
I am learning level design
I'm imagining your beautiful artwork can be hung on a wall, on a digital frame to be admired. And perhaps we see the view slowly move around the scene and after a while changes to a new landscape scene to be admired and slowly move around it too. Sort of like on a screen saver, but a slow a photorealistic cinematic art on the living room wall.
Wow thanks I really appreciate it :)
another brilliant scene as always! keep it up, love watching these :)
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊
Thanks Sketch,just another awesome video. Love the details. How much time did it take?
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊. I completed this one over two days.
This is beyond beautiful. Really mesmerising. I wish there was tutorials from the ground up, starting with modeling (in blender) and finishing with building in Unity. Anyway, that was a masterpiece indeed.
Thanks I really appreciate it :)
I might try a more detail level design follow along tutorial in the future ;)
Hello, you did nice terrain) I tried to create realistic vollumetric light using vollumetric light script and vollumetric light renderer script, but... It doesn't work in my project. Did you have the same problem?(if yes, could you please say what's wrong?). And one more question. What spot do you use for Default Spot Coockie?
Sorry for my English, I'm not from Eglish speaking country.
Thanks)
Thanks. For the volumetric lighting make sure you have the Volumetric Light Render script on the camera and select 'spot' as the cookie (it comes with the package). Then place the Volumetric Light Script on the light you want to become volumetric, note that the effects only appear in-game not in the editor. Also, the effects will not appear in a build of the game, to fix this you need to add all the volumetric shaders into your built-in shaders, to do this navigate to Edit > Project Settings > Graphics.
You can always view the demo scenes that comes with the pack first to make sure everything is working.
Hope this helps 😊
As always mate phenomenal! How long have you been at this for?

Great video, I really want to build in unity now :)
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Why do you not have more subscribers??
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊. More subscribers will come eventually, though sub count doesn't bother me too much as I started this channel for the fun of it and my passion for Unity I could have 1M or just 100 and I'd feel the same.
Another great video! Well Done! What pipeline did you use? I've always used Unity's Basic 3D template, used LWRP (URP) a couple of times and only used HDRP once only because I find it had to use the features they have and it messes up materials and you have to upgrade them (but doesnt work with trees etc.). Good idea for a video to go over the different pipelines and how they can change your scenery. But just want to know which one you use.
Anyway, well done on this. Love the volumetric lighting used.
This was created in the standard pipeline. However, I'm currently working on a project in hdpr which has taught me a lot, so I will likely release a tutorial in hdpr soon. Also, that is a great video idea, I'll be sure to add to my list of video ideas, thanks 😊
@@sketch3436 No problem. Glad I did something good for once 😂 I've always made small indoor scenes like a Sci-Fi corridor and inside a Prison because it's easier to do for me and its what I started with, and I've never been able to paint terrain or do anything with outside scenery because it looks horrible when I do it. So your videos are helping me a lot to understand how to achieve realistic effects, even these speed level designs. Love your videos and excited for more!
@@polarsvisuals4132 That's awesome to hear, thanks😊
Again an amazing video. You deserve so much more subscribers 🥰
Thanks I really appreciate :)
Brilliant! Unity should hire you to make showcases of what can be done with the engine this days...
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊. It would be awesome if Unity hired me to make level designs, however, I don't see that happening in time soon
Hi I'm a fan of yours and you helped me a lot to grow as a level designer, just wanted to ask you one thing, if I use Nature Manufacture assets, not for HDRP or URP but for normal RP (3D only), I still have to do those update he talks about?
Pretty sick! Also how did you make the small snippets of texture(i assume) on the tower floor, decals, jyust part of the texture or a whole another object?
Thanks 😊. The tower floor was created by having a base plane with a leaves material applied, then I add plank models over the top and finally added leave models again on top (basically decals).
Hope this helps
My mind is blown by this
Haha, thanks :D
Powerful landscape :D
How much time you actually take for this Level Design..??
came for the graphics stayed for the music
Great work. Did you use ray tracing?
Hey @sktech , i liked ur level design video thamks for uploading this video
,A very very thanks from me:)
awesome! My mind widened instantly!
Thanks 😊
This is it, this is the one.
Are you using GAIA Volumetric light and fogs?
Edit:sorry Aura 2
Nope, this is using a GitHub volumetric solution from SlightlyMad, I have a link to the GitHub page in the description (it includes documentation).
Here is a direct download of a unity package:
old.brackeys.com/wp-content/FilesForDownload/Volumetric-Lights.zip
Hope this helps :D
Sketch im late but thats great im trying it out now, cool scenary bro
Ya, very cool demo. Would you approach a game level layout in terms of set design the same way as for a cinematic fly-through? Would you use a different method of dropping in props and landscape objects? Inspiring work, btw, as everyone else has mentioned. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks :)
For an actual game. I would first design the layout with gameplay in mind, just using simple cubes to get the bare bones of a environment. After testing, if it flows well with the gameplay then I start to develop the visuals.
@@sketch3436 Cool. That sounds like the right approach. Thx!
that was beautiful, really great great job
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊
I’d love to do this my my pc would probably turn into a nuke if I tried to render this
Yeah I was pushing it with this scene with all the small clutter objects, although, it didn't run too bad about ~45-50 FPS without any optimization. I'm sure by doing things like baking the lighting I could get it running smoothly even on some older systems
It depends. If you require it to be playable then yes but if you dont there are ways to ensure that you can get a video in good framerate even if the realtime framerate is low. I used an asset store asset for it before but maybe the Unity Recorder can do it too.
My Intel Core i2 would fucking explode if this level ever even touched my pc 🌚
It will be so Great if you Come to my Channel Watching my Videos subscribe me and enjoy.
Do it now
or I will come for your Soul in midnight
@@aranna5372 no
did you use hdrp or standard?
Standard Unity for this scene
I love ur Chanel way to much, those assets are beautiful 🙂
That's awesome to hear! Thanks a lot 😊
@@sketch3436 np, and you should do a devlog of a game bc your level design is like non I've ever seen
@@everythingunderthesun5946 Haha thanks. Quite a lot of people have been asking me to create my own game so maybe I should start a devlog series 🤔
i always wondered what kind of system to use unity or unreal at such lenghts? can you share your system specs?
Awesome man! How do you move with the scene camera at 4:05? I mean, moving and panning at the same time
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊. For the camera movement, I was holding down right-click and moving the camera rotation with my mouse and then moving the camera in the scene with the standard W,A,S,D movement, hope this helps.
Great lighting!
Thanks :D
How did you animate camera ?
I used timeline and cinemachine to animate the camera
Did you made this in HDRP??
i love the scenery and especially the music
Thanks I really appreciate it :)
Wow!! That was amazing.
Thanks :D
Wow man! Fantastic!
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊
crisp clean graphics (y)
Looks really good
Thanks 😊
This is really nice. 👍
Thanks 😊
Hello, sorry to bother in a youtube coment. I've been struggling with trees. Cant use the easy tree creator tool in URP as it is locked to some legacy shaders. The standard asset also uses default shaders that cant be converted. Any way around it? I wish i could prototype something with free assets before buying and modeling anything custom.
By easy tree creator are you referring to Unity's built in tree creator?
docs.unity3d.com/Manual/tree-FirstTree.html
If you are I'll test it out in URP and see if I can get it working, cause off the top of my head I cannot think of any free tree creator packs that are good
@@sketch3436 yeah. That one. Found some folks on the forums saying there's no fix for it. Stopped updating for a few years already . Seems like no way around. Gotta buy some cool trees.
@@davdev793 That sucks to hear. What types of trees are you looking for I might know some good free ones?
@@sketch3436 I may end up modeling it myself. Just gotta figure out how to import it and benefit from the lod and wind zone features. Something stylized for a fantasy setting is what im looking for. Probably oak like trees .
@@davdev793 I had a quick look on the asset store, there wasn't too much there for free, this is the best one I found:
assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/fantasy/fantasy-forest-environment-free-demo-35361
If you are modelling them yourself you can easily create LODs by naming the different LODs in your modelling program to 'NameofAsset'_LOD0 just change the number for which LOD it is, then when you import into Unity it should all be set up automatically.
Hope this helps :)
Buddy from where did you got these assets, can you share those assests like wooden pieces land textures and all
All assets seen in the video are linked in the description. I think I may have added some additional textures from textures.com though
This is spectacular. Great work sir. I would like to know how long it took you to create it
What a awesome level design keep it up , i wanna ask ask a simple question , how you can achieve beautiful graphics using only built in render
Thanks 😊. The trick to achieving realistic graphics regardless of which renderer you are using is always lighting. For all of my scenes, I make sure to spend a lot of time getting the lighting perfect, Use all the systems Unity provides such as reflection probes, screen-space reflections and light probes to maximise the realism. When all these components are working together you can easily achieve results that look like they were developed in HDPR. Hope this helps!
@@sketch3436 alright,thank you very much
Really inspiring for a project I'm planning! Got any tips for making a large survival game map?
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊. For large scale scenes, I recommend taking the time to plan it out and find reference material, this will ensure you are time efficient. When it comes to actually building the map a big mistake I often see people make is that the terrain is flat and then they have random spikes of mountains sticking out, this isn't realistic and instead, the mountains should deform the landscape creating a lot of variety in height (this also looks more appealing and interesting to the player). Yet again, reference material can help. Also, using the 'Terrain Tools' asset from the asset store in combination with the Terrain Tools from the package manager allows you to stamp brush on the terrain, this will allow you to stamp realistic mountains instantly, which is really nice. For more tips, I recommend my achieving photorealism video.
Large scale scenes can also get really laggy, so performance is an important element. The most important tip here is to have LODs on all your models. For more info, I suggest watching my performance video.
This was a quick overview of tips, but, I hope you find it helpful. Good luck with your survival game 😊.
@@sketch3436 okay will do. Thanks a bunch!
May I ask kind stranger. What are your pc specs??
Looks amazing! I hope to see you build a game!
Thanks, I really appreciate it. I'll build a game one day, I'm sure of that. Maybe 2020 should be the year I start a bigger project 🤔
I have quite some experience in video game development. So if you ever need help, HMU :)
@@harroldmussa4206 Thank, I'll keep that in mind 😊
Mind blowing last scene ,,can you make night jungle walkthrough
Thanks :D
And thanks for the suggestions
Beautiful
Thanks 😊
Where I can get this models and asssets used in this video? Really nice environment btw
Very enchanting !!
Sketch -
Enjoying your content! I'd like to know if you are able to copy an area of the forest you created and then algorithmic-ally proliferate it out to the rest of the map?
What would this technology be called? Very interesting stuff! Keep up the good work.
Thanks 😊. There are ways to auto generate terrain within a chosen style, however, not directly in Unity, you'll have to use external assets like Gaia:
assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/terrain/gaia-terrain-scene-generator-42618
Hope this helps
Thank you so much. It's very beautifull.
Great video if you can help me what degree you did for creating games and designing them pls an answer would be helpful from you
Thanks 😊. I didn't complete a degree to learn what I have of game design, level design etc I simply started following along on YT tutorials and attempted to make some games myself after a while I started to get comfortable with Unity and found that I didn't need to rely much on videos for my projects, at around this time I started joining up with some indie projects which taught me more of how larger-scale games are managed and how to work with different departments. That sums up my entire journey with game development so far.
If your thinking of studying game development I would recommend studying computer science since although it doesn't apply directly to game development it gives you a really strong understanding of computers and programming which is extremely useful when developing software, the design aspects of game development can easily be learnt by yourself in my opinion. Additionally, having a computer science degree allows you to go into a range of jobs whereas with a strictly game development degree you are kinda locked in game development, you always need to think of your future self just cause you're interested in game design today doesn't mean you will be tens years from now.
Hope this helps 😊
@@sketch3436 really that's more inspiring thnx but did you released any game if I can ask
@@LiuBei661 Glad to hear. I have only ever released a prototype for a horror game (trailer is my first upload) that project was actually the first proper game I tried to make and it taught me a lot, although I feel I could do so much better nowadays. Other than that all the indie companies I've worked with still have their games in development two are planning to release this year though which is exciting.
I would like to release some more games soon and potentially start a devlog series although with uni and working on the indie projects it's hard to find the time.
@@sketch3436 thnx for telling me
That looks like the MRO from The Elder Scroll: Oblivion, in Tamriel, the Imperial capital ... A Whuaou bridge that is realistic.
Or Skyrim
Hey sketch so i think your vids are amazing quality. And I've seen that you've had alot of streams and rivers in your scenes. I have been looking for tutorials on how to make them for a very long time and i haven't found any good ways. I was wondering if you could make a tutorial if you have the time on how to make them. Plus keep up the great work
Thanks, also thanks for the suggestion, I'll be sure to include a water component in my next follow along tutorial
can you make the project downloadable? Because I made a game but I need some forest for it and I cant create environments I tried and they are trashy
Unfortunately, I cannot do that as the project contains paid assets.
Hello.
Great videos, so thank You.
I dlike to know how to move any object like tree, rock etc arround my terrain so i can place it where i want it, like you do in this video.
Some how i can't figure it out..
Also, is there a way to see deth, high of terrain all the time in unity..?
I.m normally working in l3dt and there wherever you point the mouse it showing the terrain high. This make terrain creation way more easy..
Thx.
Regards..
Can you explane me where the hell post processing is in the newes versions?
Post-processing is different for different pipelines. So for HDRP and URP post-processing is automatically integrated into the project. However, for standard Unity, you have to get it via the package manager which you can navigate by going to Window > Package Manager then search for post-processing and install.
Hope this helps 😊
@@sketch3436 Ty so much 😊
This is so inspiring 🥺
omfg almost looks better then real life xD
what are the settings for the fog? I've appreciated the video so much!
this is incredible. Now i also want to learn unity XD
This is super great!!!!!
Perfect
Thanks 😊
Please do a another tips and tricks's video, it's really useful !
Will do :D
Nice 😋
Nice work, really. I noticed that at the end, lights and shadows coming form the fire are not moving with the flames (6' 46''). On a game why not, on a single scène its sad to not have this detail that chocked me cause its less realsitic that i excpected with the title and the reste of the content.
Thanks 😊. Regarding the fire, yes I totally agree, if I wanted to maximise the realism and immersion I should have made the lighting flicker, however, I spent way too long trying to get cinemachine to work correctly so by the time it came around to things like that I just didn't have the energy, especially since I would have had to write a custom script. Next time, I'll make sure to get the flame lighting working 😉
This is amazing! 👌😊
Is this hdrp or urp render pipeline
I'm noob.
So tell me.
Is there a way to download this created map and explore?
No there is no download due to the scene containing paid assets.
sleep because of the music hahaha
❤️❤️
Love this !
Thanks :D
Love it! Is there going to be an another tutorial soon?
Thanks 😊. Not sure when the next upload will be. At the moment, video ideas are just in the research/writing stage.
You deserved like, comment and subscirbe!
Thanks, I really appreciate it 😊
how do I make textures not stretch?
You got a new Subscriber.
That's awesome to hear!
how you made realistic fire,?? i cant make
Verry exllent video.so nice.i love it.
Dude, you are awesome. You always show us your level design skill, but what about your coding skills. You are able to make a 3D game, I know it is hard and require a lot of time and work. But you can do that!
Thanks, I really appreciate 😊. In terms of Unity, I would say my coding skills are intermediate to beginnings of advanced I definitely have the skill level to make my own game. I guess I haven't made coding videos, since, my channel at the moment is kinda branded in the graphics area. However, if people are interested in programming tutorials I'll for sure upload some. I did have plans for the future to extend the channel into more general tech and have tutorials on algorithms like A* search or big O notation etc.
Great video but does anyone know how he achieved the wind swaying effect on his trees?
You should upload the final scene so people can see in unity :)
Unfortunately, I am unable to provide a project download as the scene contains paid assets.
@Sketch please tell me is there any asste similar like R.A.M
Color space used??
Linear colour space was used for this scene.
Anyone know why my tree doesn't move on wind?i have wind zone and tree is part of terrain yes,not just prefab
Not all prefabs are designed to work with Unity's wind system. Usually, an alternative wind system is provided with these assets, so, make sure to search for "wind" in your project to see if anything comes up.
@@sketch3436 I use tree's what you using in videos,and they moving in your videos
@@Aeg0r The NatureManufacture Forest Environment Pack comes with a custom wind system, just search "Prefab_Wind" in your project and then drop this prefab into your scene and it should all be working :)
@@sketch3436 i'm using Conifers [BOTD]
@@Aeg0r That pack also comes with a custom wind system it's called "CTI Windzone"
Lmfao the lag in the start
Impressive 👌
