"For larger assets such every bit rocks, footing tiles, cliffs faces and tree trunks, reconstruction was performed direct from photographs using a procedure called photogrammetry. These assets were then put through a proprietary 'de-lighting' process to make them suitable for utilize in any lighting scenario. Specular and roughness maps where then created to take full advantage of Unreal Engine four'due south Physically Based Rendering architecture. Finally game-optimized assets were generated with normal maps, LODs and collision meshes.

For vegetation such as flowers, bushes and grass nosotros used color calibrated reference photography shot in the field to more than accurately model and texture these avails."

A collection of realistic assets from Epic's Open up Globe demo shown at GDC 2022. Use them to create new levels or add them to existing ones.

Description

About this pack:
Each asset has been created using photographs of a real world object.
Our Procedure:
For larger assets such every bit rocks, basis tiles, cliffs faces and tree trunks, reconstruction was performed directly from photographs using a process called photogrammetry. These assets were then put through a proprietary 'de-lighting' process to brand them suitable for use in whatever lighting scenario. Specular and roughness maps where then created to take full advantage of Unreal Engine iv's Physically Based Rendering compages. Finally game-optimized assets were generated with normal maps, LODs and standoff meshes.

For vegetation such as flowers, bushes and grass we used colour calibrated reference photography shot in the field to more accurately model and texture these avails.

This pack weights around 6.3GB and here are its key features:

-42 Photo-realistic meshes with LODs

The Demo can be downloaded here.

The "A Boy and his Kite Demo" definitely proves the potential of Unreal Engine iv in rendering open up world environments with extreme particular, and demonstrates the visual quality developers will exist able to achieve in their games.

Information technology's certainly exciting to see this level of visual fidelity to be possible with a widely used engine similar Unreal Engine 4, and with the implementation of Nvidia'southward VXGI within the engine, the potential is immense. Lets hope nosotros start seeing similar results in games really presently. You can check out our previous coverage of Unreal Engine 4 projects, here and here.
