      There's something weird going on with the parallax in the background. At first, I thought it was a card, but when approaching the lake, it was real geometry - still, there is some kind of odd optimization. Don't get me wrong, it's a great online render, and these optimizations are to be expected in a game, but I am not sure it's ready to complete offline.

      ​@@squirming_squirrels Yes it is real geometry. You may have heard about Nanite in unreal engine, with UE5.2 foliage is also nanite compatible.
      Nanite allows individual meshes to have theoretically unlimited number of triangles. Simply, by mushing down points in an individual pixel, thus reducing the geometry to what is really necessary.
      And it's really fast, like real-time fast.

      It shouldn't be a real big challenge, though. I guess it was just not the goal of this demo to have it.
      Should be pretty easy compared to all the incredible details already there for the visuals and spatial audio. It's just a matter of some modeling of the actual (swinging) of the steps of walking, not just a tacked-on fake effect. It doesn't have to be super accurate to feel less cheesy. A simple pendulum model should work fine.

Rhythmically and in terms of intensity (when pushing away a shrub or suddenly stepping on stone on the ground) it doesn't make sense at all. And also the sounds themselves: if you ever in your life just walked a few minutes through a forest: it simply doesn't sound like that! haha.

    This looks incredible. The only thing taking me away from the forest was feeling like the rustling sounds of hitting the leaves are too repetetive and similar. Same with walking sounds. They are good still, but I believe the graphics are so insane that it highlights the importance of natural and subtle sounds. Maybe some day we get some nanite sound engine that calculates number of polygons of leaves hitting the model and generating some unique sounds on the fly.

    • @jojolafrite90

    Looks gorgeous! The weird thing with graphics is, the realer it gets the less real it feels. So weird... Especially when the camera is moving. Maybe because their is no movement in the vegetation? feels like walking through at place where time stands still if you know what I mean.

      *Uncanny Valley* effect.
      There are literally dozens of subtle details that also need to be implemented for it to be perceived as real. With low fidelity graphics we don’t have the same expectations.

      Я этот ролик раз 10 пересматривал. Это реально лучшая работа такого плана, что я видел. Прям захотелось скачать этот движок и самому попытаться что-нибудь нарисовать...))

    This is great, but the stillness gives it an uncanny valley quality for me. No forest is ever this still in my experience.

      You must always choose windy days to go hiking then. There have been times where I've looked up and there's not a single leaf moving.

      This looks like a hot stagnant humid day where I'm from, I could feel the humidity almost.

    This is genuinely impressive but it needs motion to look convincing... some little flies in the sunlight, some leaves dancing in the breeze that's clearly happening in the foley and it would be stunning.

    Looks incredible! A little bit more wind movement might make it look even better. :)

      I agree, it looks a bit strange without realistic wind/breezes. I suspect the hit on performance would drop the frames too much.

      Have you ever been outside? There's not always a breeze. One reason foliage looks unrealistic in games is because developers make grass and trees move and sway constantly.

      is not that bad, but you have to configure all and tick the option off wind, and adjust the force of the wind@@PixelatedExistence
