Hi! Thanks for sharing this tutorial!
I don't know if that has been said already but you can get your landscape spline information in PCG by Get Spline Data >
Actor Filter = All World Actors
Actor Selection = By Class
Actor Selection Class = Landscape
Thanks man! your a life saver
No problem!! Happy to help :-) @@HenryRronbertson
Good approach!! Ty
I love all of your devlogs and videos! I’ve been watching since your horror character modeling and i haven’t missed a single video- Keep it up and i’m excited to see your development and progress!!
To make the falloff you could get the first and last point and move then down slightly
I have never used a single 3D program and half the time i have no idea what you are saying yet i am so invested in the journey behind this game.
Your personality really shines through, and while i don’t usually play horror games, i can’t wait to play this game!
Your voice is also really comforting so i listen to it when doing chores.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your support! Sometimes I get too nerdy in a random direction, and most of my audience have no idea what to do with this :)
Thanks for showing some of those pitfalls. Will definitely save me time once I start experimenting with PCG.
I literally saw this in the plugins today and wondered what it was, and then even more randomly found this video!
OMG now you can create really good streets with splines where the mode changes for instance bridges and more. Haven´t heard of this plugin so thank you sooo much
you could use a texture and have it place a red node on the beg of the spline in the spline bp... so like.... make world texture red on spline.... then you can use that red texture in pcg to make it so you can smoother the start and end points
Thie was super helpful! Thx
Nice work...
p.s.
You can sample the Landscape Spline into the PCG, just TAG the spline with a name you like, then in the PCG> Sample Spline(All World Actors - by TAG) >> match the tag Name >> Into a spline sampler... and the rest is easy :)
will this method allow custom heightmaps to be generated at runtime?
This is very cool... Thanks for the video :)
Super cool!
Very cool, nice discovery!
well done!
Great tutorial 👍
this is what i was lookin for but i didnt know what it was called "i was trying to look for wrapping mesh/textures to landscape" you could even use the "landscape" change event from player states, say weapon effects, rocket launcher, blows parts of the ground deeper. and the terrain around proceduraly adjuststs =) add chaos =)
This seems like something that'll hopefully get a dedicated node setup for in the future, until then though it feels like just combining landmass with PCG will be the best bet.
nice job...
thx ;)
Awesome project, I been watching for many months now!!!! Can you do some more videos on enemy A.i programming...
Woah, neat!
Hi Borodante! may by we can use new logic nodes like Branch to include this landscape BP in to main graph. Like point data---->Branch(with atribute) (A)line get points to spawn BP and add atribute to this points -->> go back to Branch (attribute trigered) (B)line go next generaton...
I'm wondering if PCG system can help to make run-time destruction/deformation for landscapes, like craters in Battlefield 4/ BF1. Because, the only way I've managed to find more or less similar - is voxel plugin. But it still looks bad in comparison to Battlefield)
Or other way, is to make a crater mesh, which would stuck on top of the surface, so actually the borders of it would be higher, and the hole in center would be lower than borders, but still little bit above the landscape. Like a trick, but not actual deformation. But I think, I saw similar things in BF5.
What are thouse trees and plants you are using pls? Is it quixel or something else?
awesome ty :())
Damn, I saw a tutorial of a river spline going into a lake, where they had the gradient of point density as the spline entered the lake. Can’t remember who’s tut it was..
Cool,! So I could actually attach this landscape component on a house and spawn the house and flatten/even out the terrain beneath? Its something I have never found away to do.
Yep, it works well for this situation
@@BoroCG really? I saw raise and lower, is there a flattening option? .. and PCG takes that component in count when spawning the house with the attached component?
Can you use this with a texture patch? I can't seem to make that work
Hi. Is possible to do this in runtime? For exemplo for digging or flatten a terrain?
Thank you share your good skill. Do you have any problems running Unreal Engine on your laptop? I want to use Unreal Engine on my laptop, too. What laptop are you using?
nice intro bro
Nice, there is a pcg in electric dreams that does something like this too where there is a tree fallen and create a trench. I’ve wonder if they do this too.
I don't believe so. From the PCG previews it looked more like they were just placing static meshes on top of a premade landscape, and then stacking more meshes on top.
I stand corrected re watched and they dont so any landscape lifting with pcg@@Jofoyo
U can interface with landmass and control splines directly
Why not use the Apply Spline node in the blueprint?
So... for a noob like me that started UE 5.4 3 days ago how can i make PSG like that?
Can you give me your code to cook at it?
My idea is to be able to create forest with random paths (path is lower than the rest) in it.
Прикольно
Radal
can it be done at runtime?
It doesn't. That's what I'm trying but I get no results so far
I wonder if it's even necessary to have everything procedural. Why not just generate the heightmap for the terrain and then go in and sculpt the paths yourself
Anyone struggling to spawn the BP Actor at end of PCG Graph:
In Spawn Actor Node: Settings / No Merging
Nice discovery! I'm testing it right now. I use a custom note to find the first and last point of a spline in PCG. This helped me making a path with complex shaped ground mesh having the start and end smoothly going into the landscape. Should also work for your usecase. Here is a video about finding the start and end point: czcams.com/video/N0HPzJaBrfs/video.html
Oh thanks! Should be exactly what I wanted to add
@@BoroCG in the plugins i dont get the pcg option required only the mesh one shows up.Advice pls
You look like you are a blueprint yourself
Aye yo 😂😂😂
"I Fell harassed walking on this" 2023 borocg😂
Are we going to get full tutorials of this?
Now we are talking :)
It took me a while to realize you were talking about a framework within Unreal Engine. Simply adding the word "UE5's" before "PCG" in your title, or in your video description, would have made things much clearer. Thanks nonetheless for all you do.
You look like a NPC from cyberpunk.
