Very much appreciate the data/info and the time/expertise that goes into a video like this and many others...if I might add a suggestion? Perhaps find points of excitement and/or make shorter 'paragraph topics' (basically your bullet points) and vocally differentiate (louder...more colorful) those from their explanations. The content is already difficult to hype up just because it's data and it can be dry but I think for me, even though I'm excited and learning all this in my free time, it can be harder to remember the information if a longer, data driven educational lecture stays mostly "linear" or flat (I'm trying to avoid using the word "monotone" ). Just some friendly and hopefully constructive criticism.... not that you asked for it but having spoke in front of many many people, in the beginning I was terrified, I probably did everything they tell you not to do lol so trust me I'm no "Master Speaker." Thanks again for all your time and effort, you obviously know your stuff and I, have so much to learn... 😳 Take Care!
Hello Robert, @10:55 you mention that " once the layout was locked we transfer back the splines in Houdini and used in the city graph". How does one transfer data from Unreal to Houdini?
I've been trying to follow along with the Unreal Engine 5 tutorial for using the city sample buildings & houdini to generate a city. But it's incorrect & giving me so many errors. From coding errors to things misssing errors. I just want to learn to generate cities procedurally like you guys did. :( Can someone please help me, I've been looking in forums, tutorials & documents everywhere, I'm not able to fix the issues I'm having.
I don't understand what is so new about this? How all the other open world games did it without this workflow? I guess the same approach was used for numerous games before. It is nothing new. I guess you could do the same things with CityEngine. Just the functionality was ported to Houdini I guess.
Insightful. Glad to have the ideas of this very flexible system in the open.
Awesome. Would love a higher res version of the graphs. We have PCG in unreal now....
Are the presentation slides available anywhere?
Would you use PCG if you were to do that in UE 5,2?

I felt asleep a few times but awesome talk

i think they save it and then opening it back in houdini using TOPS

same here man , did you ever figure a fix?
you can import osm data, or use dungeon architect
@@franchocou if you watched this video even for 30 seconds you would understand why they arent using osm data
He mentions another talk somewhere in the video , but i cant find it
I think it is: "The Matrix Awakens: Creating a World | Tech Talk | State of Unreal 2022"
