    THIS WORKS!!! I figured it out! Heres the fix for many of you that had the black sphere greyed out for the M_AutoLandscape. He said it in the beginning of the tutorial @21:26 You have to MIGRATE everything. You can't just take the folder from downloads and drag it into your Content folder-- Instead open up his unrealprojectfile in the folder given without moving it. Follow the few seconds of the tutorial as noted. Select the auto materials etc (they should be working in the project file he gave us - works in my unreal4.27 on my Mac) and go migrate those materials into your current project. Then create your own MaterialInstance with the M_AutoLandscape. Everything is now setup as the tutorial shows me above for the rest of my customizing. DUDE THANK YOU FOR THIS PROJECT FILE!!!! YOURE A BOSS. Watching allllll the videos up to this point has helped me tremendously!!! Excited to see some of your architecture workflow

    Unreal Sensei kicking videos! Ordinarily I have a block with video and prefer text for tutorials, especially where likely to want to follow the steps as a reference again and again. I have to say though your videos are a pleasure to watch and learn from. Your delivery is polished and to the point, and frankly inspiring and in the moment. Best unreal tuts on YT that I have seen.
    Anyway, that aside - with the AutoLandscape 4.26 version The Blueprint relating to the Nordic Beach Rocks, through Materials Element 0, and subsequently through General Parent into the MS_DefaultMaterial asset is broken. There are no connectors joined up, which is presumably because the two Tiling Functions are showing as Unspecified Function!

    For those wanting to make holes with the visibility tool under Landscape sculpt, you will need to add your material instance to the "Landscape Hole Material" slot in landscape (in the outliner). Then you will need to go into the master material M_AutoLandscape and change "Blend Mode" to "Masked". Then add the node "Landscape Visibility Mask" and hook it to Opacity Mask in each of the materials (MF_A,B,C etc.) and also on the M_AutoLandscape node.

      I'm just a student leaning a mountain of UE stuff, know enough to be dangerous, but I have been working with layered landscapes. :) Is there a tutorial on this or is it as simple as creating the material instance for this material, then add it to the "Landscape Hole material" slot in landscape in the outliner (will have to go find that). Then the rest of it sounds fairly easy. I'm using UE 5.1. Any clarification would be appreciated.
