Hello! 👋
Mao here,
It is time for another Environment tutorial! This time we are touching landscapes and the water system to create an Island!

You can find my Gaming channel on: www.youtube.com/@maomaopvp & www.twitch.tv/maomaopvp
Edit:
Since the release of this video we got some frequent questions about the same topics so I will put them here with the solution:
Q: I don't see the Landmass Blueprint
A: Make sure you enable Landmass plugin, restart the editor AND Enable Edit Layers before creating your Landscape
Q: I don't see my water:
A: If it is the first time you put it, it will take some time to load. In the video I loaded it into memory before so you don't have to wait, but typically you will wait a few minutes. If you still can't see it make sure you put the Water on the right layer. Above the base can work.
i cant find the blueprint mode
@@Chance_POV me too i can not find blueprint
UNF it is not in the landscape thingt i can not find it
Funny, in my project when i change to play mode, it goes on first person, is there a way to change for third person? I think is better to have both options to view better the scene.
@@efxnews4776 go to world settings and override the Game Mode to the Third Person one
If you don't see the landscape blueprint brushes, Edit>Plugins>(search for)Landmass>enable>reset unreal done.
Thank you 😁
Thank you ;)
once you enable landmass plugin and reset unreal, blueprint don't appear anymore...
@@alextorres1038 You need to enable Edit layers before creating the landscape
Shift 2😂
Have not finished the video and already learned a lot more in detail of the actual tools. Thank you for taking time to elaborate the tools
It looks great ! You use a lot of keyboard shortcuts that I don't know as a newbie. It's nice if you put on the screen what you click on the keyboard and mouse, it would be much clearer. :)
i just starting to learn unreal and ur tutorials really helps me a lot man, I really appreciate how you explain it step by step in a simple way so even newbie like me can follow through, many thanks!!
dont know if someone already mentioned it; around 1:18:10 when you're painting foliage on the water plane; its usually way easier to just unclick the "static meshes" button in the foliage editor "filters" section. this way youre only painting on bsp and landscape meshes. definitely a more effective way than moving your camera beneath the surface every time. anyways, nice tutorial, good pacing. keep em coming!
Nice catch! yes there are some filters for painting and are very useful! 😁
The team at UNF knows what’s up! What a wonderful tutorial
thank you!
I *love* this tutorial - you filled in all kinds of areas I had questions about as a beginner in the landscaping/level set up.
He did a very good job imo. Explaining the basics step by step. English is not my first language and I have no experience in using DAWs
Watching other guides, always leads me back to yours to get the level of detail I need on how to do things! Keep it up!
Happy to hear that 😁
very excellent tutorial i love it although i wish you would've included how to make beach waves, waterfalls and custom sky clouds
I love the orange alien looking sky u briefly showed. I literally paused the video a few times to admire the image
Hey there, I am hoping if you guys can make a tutorial on how to make a maze/labyrinth. It would be very nice and I think everyone would like that.
Also if you end up doing this, could you show us how to make a procedurally generated maze?
Thanks, you are amazing! Keep it up.
has nobody noticed the water in the rivers are flowing backwards? this is because he is placing the starting point at the ocean or lake instead of it's actual starting point. this is very noticeable at 31:25 when he joins the 2 rivers together the waterfall is flowing upwards.
Noticed it AF
What really made me twitch was the river arbitrarily splitting before flowing (theoretically) into the ocean. Rivers don't do that. But hey, for an environmental art tutorial, I can overlook it.
Driving me crazy
Absolutely brilliant tutorial, so clean, simple, clear. Very very easy to understand, thank you!!!
Thank you! glad you know that! 😄
wow I am new to UE5 and I am in love with your tutorial.
Amazing staff.Clear and encouraging.
Just mind blowing bro. Mad respect for the detailed tutorial ❤️. Thank you for spending hours for making this video. Please keep the good work. Expecting more tutorials like this 😁
thank you! Glad you appreciate the effort! It's really hard to make them but it's nice to see people can learn from them so it worth it 😁
this is cool i used this tutorial and sold my game
@@teogaming7515 Awesome! Keep going! 💪
I just wanted to say - this is the perfect way to make a tutorial ..simple, clearly explained, well presented! Thank you
thank you! means a lot!
I cant believe that this is a free tutorial!!! Thank you, ser! Subscribed
This works. Recommended to try this out. Thanks a lot for your help
The perfect video for beginners, I know nothing and now I can actually do stuff on unreal
Very happy to hear that! 😄
For those who are having some troubles with a river, f.e it's not affecting the landscape or the water is located outside of the generated shape - Just move your landscape up. Rivers have a lot of troubles working below Z 0 coordinate
thank you! 🙌
bro how to shift first person to third person?
@@randomsports5247 you have to start a tpp project
thanks dude
Can I kiss you on the mouth? You just saved me!
Installed, everything works, thanks!
This is an awesome tutorial! I've been heavily into environment design and wishing to pursue it.
This video is super helpful and I'm going to combine it with my Blender models once complete. Thank you for the video and a job well done!
Can't wait to see more like this!
thank you! Please share with us on Discord what you create!
it is NOT only UE5 is powerful, you are very creative too, and the result a masterpiece !
Even at the start of video, without any objects added into the 3D world, your imagination and shaping the landscape alone is very creative @ 48:15
Enjoyed your video. Thanks
P/s - with your talent, you should apply for a job in a gaming studio
Thank you! You can always get better with practice,it's a never ending journey. As for the game studio, I used to work for Ubisoft
You're blessed with the gift of Tutorialism!
Just wanna confirm that it worked , thank you !
Thanks for this, great to follow along. Would love explanations as to what the settings do - saying "I can change this from 1 to 2, or 5, or 10" doesn't give much insight. Looking forward to working through the rest of your videos this weekend :)
Great suggestion!
amazing tutorial bro, so useful for someone who wants to dip their toes in!
Very helpful, and surprisingly therapeutic
bro you covered every single aspect 😂 thank you for this amazing tut
thanks! glad you appreciate it 😁
Hi
If anyone has similar river issues whereby the landscape doesn't form around river and the river floats like a column in mid-air it might be worth checking the following steps
1) Check the splines of the ocean to make sure they form around the landscape, I hadn't moved mine and it meant when I moved the water layer to the top the whole thing went kaput. For some reason I must have missed this part of the tutorial.
2) Move the ocean layer to 0 height.
3) then when I moved the water layer up top I got the following.
4) Make sure affect landscape ticked in details box under Water Heightmap settings
I am sure other more experienced people could probs give better explanations but hopefully this helps at least one person.
Thx dude i was looking for you comment my savior. xd
I had the same problem. Thank you!
TNice tutorials is aweso! I was feeling kinda overwheld when i first start soft but after watcNice tutorialng your tutorial video, i feel much more confident
Stoked cant wait!
We need more in depth LOD optimisation tutorials and blueprinting to keep frame rates high. Especially seeing as these sort of designs really need to be implemented a lot more in multiplayer games. Excellent video thankyou.
Thank you! Maybe you can watch this ruclips.net/video/DmnAI01boww/видео.html
This was really well done and also a member on your website, What i really hope you would do next is a Ai Tutorial With behavour trees.... Vote with a Like if you agree Guys...
Thanks! I guess AI is a topic many are interested in, we will take a look for sure it's something we wanted to do for a long time
Just wanna say this is amazing I was like another unorganized youtube playlist I was not satisfied until I saw ur website and I wanna say this is the best thing ever u have begginers to advace concept organized and all for free.
Fr this is amazing and thank u
Welcome glad you find the content useful 😀
thanks my man, you always put a smile on everyones faces
You placed all your rivers backwards which makes the water look like it's flowing uphill.
Lol didn't notice
I just finished the tutorial, thanks for that! Will polish my Island bit more and soon I will publish a cinematic :) Btw how to smooth the blending on 23:19?
Awesome tutorial! Thank you!
I like the materials and colors!
thank you! glad you like them 😃
Godlike Tutorial THANK YOU
if you are having issues with landmass brushes not showing up after following steps in video, the brush has a compile error, you will need to click the dropdown next to launch in epic games and verify the files
thank you this worked great!!
First of all, thanks for this awesome introduction to Landmass and Water plugins in UE5. It's not common to see a terrain tutorial :)) In minute 18, if you first add a Water layer in Terrain Mode and then, add the water body in select mode, your terrain doesn't get destroyed. When I added the water body at first, the water layer wasn't automatically being created and the water body brush was in the landmass layer content. Just a question, how do you get shoreline caustic effect?
Please tell me where to find the Terrain mode?
Dude you are the best. It is safe and 100% works
Thanks for sharing your valuable experience.
Amazing tutorial, thank you! I feel a lot more comfortable with creating levels in Unreal Engine now
That's great to hear!
You're the GOAT. Thank you for this.
Works great! Thank you
This is the best tutorial ever
Thank you!!
will get it. Just don't get burnt out. Whenever you need a break, take one.
Finished! Good tutorial
Thank you! Cheers!
ty cuz ive been having a hard ti getting started.

Thank you. Great guide.
Still working as of today, ty!
Thank you very much, I have been looking for a menu for playing online for a long time
seriously helped thank you!!
firstly I would like to wish you well and to say a huge thank you for uploading these videos as they have been an invaluable resource to
Welcome!
Awesome tutorial. I literally feel like actually learning something!
Great to know that!
I'm still going through this tutorial, but so far it's excellent content. I had some issues with the ocean visibility that I was able to resolve with the following:
While in selection mode, click on WarmBodyOcean
> Under terrain, make sure Affects Landscape is disabled. This will stop the water from terraforming when you move the divot it creates.
> If your ocean only covers a small portion of your scene and the yellow bounding box is visible, you can extend that by going into Water > Ocean extents and adjusting the values to fit your map.
Thanks for the tutorial, it's much faster than any other method I came across.
Welcome
this was godsend for somebody starting out, really appreciate it
welcome! 😁
I can not believe that is working perfect. Thanks a lot for sharing.
You're welcome!

Whaat that’s amazing… I actually just started to play around with UE5 a couple of days ago and most people show you how to auto generate some highmaps. But that is exactly whst my creativity was looking for! Thanks for this tutorial mate 🙏
Are you forced to work with the Water as it is? Or can you change the Color/Exposure/Brightness and stuff like this?
Glad I could help!
THANK YOU SIR, YOU ARE FANTASTIC!!
This helped me out loads, thanks!

This tutorial is amazing. I'm doing a masters degree and have never touched unreal environments before.
