Unfortunately epics wont allow sellers to release without latest engine version support. 5.3 and 5.4 is completely incompatible in my case, and maintaining two different versions is a nightmare(( I had everything ready for 5.3 but they wont let release without 5.4 support

Hey, thank you! Loading times depends directly on meshes count. There is absolutely nothing I can do about it. We are selling it for $60, extra is for your taxes. If you find it expensive, we never niss a chance to take part in sales, usually 50-70%. I love mawi work, bit it`s $400, so I don`t know how can you possibly compare it. I`m going to stick to my releases plan, I would go on with PCG and so on, not planning to change anyting about it. I beleive Epics will improve it at some point
Also you're doing baking and other process at the beginning for sure, like lods. With nanite and runtime gen you don't need to wait so it's not epic's fault, you can already improve loading times a ton.. try hierarchical with runtime and avoid lods and hlods

Holy crow. That's amazing! This is probably the best foliage pack ever released.
Thanks a lot!
Still the leader in realistic foliage motion in Unreal by a longshot!
Thanks! I`m improving it constantly)) I`ve found a way to greatly optimize shader and working on it right now))
I can't say that this is created in Unreal Engine man, superb
0:36 wow, probably the best looking real time foliage I’ve seen.
You deserve the Oscar award!
Thank you)) Hope you like it))
Outstanding
Amazing as always ❤
Looks amazing!
Stop releasing good products that I want to buy
no jokes, thank you!!! Is there a way you can add a road spline to it?
@@veith3dclub LOL, I`ll start releasing twice as fast now)) Road spines are in my list, I`ll definately add them some day.
In this video it has the river pack for the water right? This isn't all included in the Poplar Tree pack correct?
Yes, it sold separately. It is here for compatibility demonstration, tried my best to make it clear on marketplace
Is this combine of both assets PCG Biome: River Generator and this new one ?
Yes it is 🙂
how far can these trees render
Please let me know when the demo is aviable, i thing i buy it for my game :)
It is already, hope you enjoy!
@@defect6189 awesome thank you !
awesome！
nice flora composition! reducing opacity mask value would give u less mesh disappearing :)
Hey, thank you! I`ve experimented with masks, and i`ve found that forcing lod bias to 0 for alpha works best in my case
@@defect6189 that works aswell yes!
Is this just the underlying assets with some PCG stuff set up with them or what would we be buying if we buy this?

Pc specs?
How do you manage to do this without running out of PCG points
I`ve created chunks system, but seems its overkill in 5.4.
@@defect6189 overkill you mean you don't need so much points or that it's too heavy on performance?

@@defect6189 sure, happy to help if I can, but it's pretty easy
In the PCG volume settings in outliner turn on is partitioned and runtime generation, scale the volume always with brush settings not scale
Then in the graph enable hierarchical instancing and add grids between the get landscape nodes and the rest (don't use input output those are deprecated)
In the static mesh spawner change component to hierarchical instance static mesh and you're now good to go and able to play with different grid sizes
I suggest also to add PCG gen source component to your player blueprint, you can also choose in the outliner settings of the graph how much distance and direction from the camera will affect the runtime gen
Set higher grids for bigger meshes you want to be able to see from a distance and smaller ones for closer objects, I even spawn flocks of fishes underwater, dynamic lights etc
If you want I can send you a link to a block-out build of my environment, on my machine it takes 16 seconds to fully load from clicking the exe to everything rendered and ready, and I don't compile shaders beforehand on this 7x7km environment
I didn't want to hate on your asset, but it's no usable if it takes 12mins on my machine to just load a small landscape
Realtime please
It is, check the demo
