Hey everyone! To those of you who can't find the package: Unity has moved the "Show Preview Packages". You can now find it under Edit -> Project Settings -> Package Manager -> Enable Preview Packages. If you check that box, you should see preview packages in the Package Manager! :-) Stay awesome!
For some reason the current version of unity doesnt have a lot of the stuff shown in this video such as sculpt mode , terrain toolbox and some other stuff any idea why?
I will add on my comment. I did gave up on unity. But I am now a front end developer. Unity was never for me but react, js, css, node and express.js clicked for me.
# Brackeys - can you do next video all about water in Unity? Like ocean, rivers, lakes, pounds, muddy puddles etc with effects like crisp clear, reflective and droplet or particle surface ? PLEASE!!!!
I swear Brackeys is mind-reading me or something because ever since I have taken his tutorials, he would upload a video of my most curious question of Unity. Well, someone truly deserved a sub and a like! Also your amazing with your tutorials Brackeys! Now I have learned how to throw a chicken onto sausages cooking on fire in Unity! I’ll definitely have a bright future in doing that!
FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE SRUGGLING WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND THE 'TERRAIN TOOL BOX'. Depending on your Version, and also hub version; you may not be able to find the Terrain Tools under Windows, as depicted in Brackey's video. This is what you want to do. Go into 'Game Objects' menu. Find the 3D Object, sub-menu. And then look for the Terrain option, down the scroll down. Select it. This is the exact same ToolBox for Terrain; but it is just called "terrain" now. Click that next to your Inspector window if you want. Unity just changed the location. Also; in that Terrain 'workshop' look for the SETTINGS option, inside of the Terrain module. These setting will give you more options to tinker with your Terrain (basically the Terrain Tools, here). I hope this helps many of you.
Unity terrain currently needs the following two things the most: 1) Ability to create holes (for caves etc) 2) Compatibility with LWRP&HDRP (incuding foliage; currently terrain is not fully SRP compatible!) Then we can talk about brushes and stuff like that, those problems must be adressed first.
@@shniss5403 Unity doesn't need to go that far. Most games don't use voxel terrains, they just cut out a hole in it and then use models the rest of the way. Something like deleting faces with a mask would work perfectly.
LWRP and HDRP compatibility is there now. As for foilage you will have to make custom shaders for that. There is a guy who has done it on the asset store but it is paid
Hey Brackeyes, I discovered your videos a few months ago and even took a udemy class after watching your tutorials. Thanks so much, I feel like you're are an extremely valuable resource in my quest to become life-long game developer myself and I'm so grateful to be sharing this journey with your channel. I am debating contributing to you very soon! I just got done developing my own 2D game for a class and I'm making my own 2D platformer right now and a lot of your videos have proven useful for that. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND FOLLOW YOUR HEART!
For any people who are having trouble figuring how to import the Terrain Tools Sample Asset Pack, after when you add it to unity, you have to open the Asset Pack in unity and then import the files. Hopefully this helps :)
I watch your videos because you really cover the basics the absolute basics even tho making terrain seems simple but I'm an absolute starter. So thank you very much.
Awesome tutorial video. Spent hours of watching youtube videos trying to learn everything about terrain but your video is much easier to understand. Thank you! Keep up the good work.
Brackeys is definitely the best Unity tutorial RUclipsr, I was sad when I realised he had quit youtube a while ago (I'm glad he's back even if he's just doing godot), and it's funny how much of this old knowledge applies to today.
Height and slope auto-texturing should be added to this system. The neighbour terrain data is really appreciated. I like the progress that they are making. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for this tut on terrains. That height map demonstration, shown close to the end of the vid, was really interesting to watch too. Thanks again Brackey's.👍
Thanks bro. Well explained. I'm new to unity. Was trying to see so many tutorials. But most of them are speed level. Couldn't figure out what they were doing. Thanks a ton.
If you want the terrain tools, and are using a newer version of unity, make sure you press "Unity Registry" instead of "show all packages" and you will find terrain tools
I couldn't find the toolbox in the Window dropdown. I used the 3D template when creating a project. I tryed again with the 3D With Extras, and now it appears
@@izzyharvin The hub have changed since the video was posted. Whta i think you have to do is when you make a new project, either select High def pipeline or universal R. pipeline, instead of just 3D
When I wanted to try out how my map should look like, I actually stop using unity terrain system and switch to Planet Coaster, because It is so much better.
@@tobisegun-lean2593 Seems that Unity has now built in the Terrain window into the asset itself. Select the terrain, go to terrain settings (in the inspector, along with the paintbrushes). It was there for me
you have to find it in "Package Manager", to find it go "Window" -> "Package Manager", check "Show preview packages" in "Advanced" Tab and then just write smth like terrain or terrain tools and after that you can import it to your project ^^
Wow I been looking for this in unity and didn’t know how to do it. Thanks for the video.. now I can get started with my map lay out and open world scene and content.
@@ryanbyrne4670 Oh haha I totally missed the first step somehow of installing the terrain tools, I only downloaded the terrain samples. Thanks for the comment .
I tried to install terrain tools, version 3.0.1 (released feb. 6 2020). When I click install i get into some problems saying "unable to install package". Can u help me :)
RenderTexture.Create failed: format unsupported for random writes - R16 SFloat (45). UnityEngine.GUIUtility:ProcessEvent(Int32, IntPtr), every time i try to brush terrain with tools, my scene window become black and i get this error.
If you go to 10:34 you'll see a Mask Map parameter. This is similar to inserting a metallic, smoothness, ambient occlusion and detail mask individually but it's instead just one texture. For HDRP which I assume the terrain shaders follow the same rules, it is Metallic(R), Ambient Occlusion(G), Detail Mask(B) and Smoothness(A).
I am guessing but does it cast a mask onto the terrain so when you paint with a brush it will apply to specific areas that are not masked and to varying degrees of force depending on the mask map?
I LOVE YOU. I was trying to get stuff done by adding a terrain, but the controls were bad, I didn't understand anything, I was so confused. I only had to watch the first few moments to already learn soooooooo much more then I figured out, I didn't know about the terrain toolbox, I didn't know that there were assets for it on the asset store, I didn't know there was a package for it, THANK YOU SO MUCH
Hey Guys I'm stuck at this error... "TerrainToolbox: Imported heightmap resolution is not power of two. UnityEngine.GUIUtility:ProcessEvent(Int32, IntPtr)"
Hi! If you are experiencing errors when importing packages - you are not alone! Change the Package Manager back to packages in the project and there should be something that's causing the errors, yet you don't recall installing it - it installed with the packages, yet you don't need it, simply deleting those saved my day.
This video was definitely helpful to me but can someone help me here... I am using the latest version of unity rn and 1. I could find the package in the package manager 2. There's no sculpt mode or any other mode in terrain brush (I want bridge mode, more specifically)
I used terrain.party, exported the image in gimp and photoshop to raw and data, tried to use import heightmap on both of them, but i can't choose data and raw gives me this error: TerrainToolbox: Imported heightmap resolution is not power of two. UnityEngine.GUIUtility:ProcessEvent(Int32, IntPtr) What should i do?
Amazing, excellent thank you very much - this is exactly what I am looking for :) Unity is the best! You material is very clear, 100% understandable and everything what beginner should know without not necessary bla bla Thank you again.
hi i have a question. in the version of unity 2019.1.14, i haven't got a lot of option in the terrain. for exemple at 6:11, you have a lot of options (sculpt, effects, erosion, mesh stamp) but i havent got that in my version... how can i do?
For anyone learning terrains in 2020 and beyond, the asset store is strictly accessible via your web browser now. You can google unity terrain tools asset store, find the correct link and click add to my assets from there. After that, go into Unity and go to window/ package manager/ then click the tab at the top that most likely says "in project" and switch it to "my assets", click the refresh button at the bottom left that says when it was last updated, click the new assets youve chosen, click download, then click import once they are downloaded.
Hey everyone!
To those of you who can't find the package: Unity has moved the "Show Preview Packages".
You can now find it under Edit -> Project Settings -> Package Manager -> Enable Preview Packages.
If you check that box, you should see preview packages in the Package Manager! :-)
Stay awesome!
Just realized that my current version is too old for this, upset a bit.

Is very interesting do things in unity 3D
Found this channel by mistake. I was about to give up learning Unity after many failed and boring tutorials. Thank you, you gave me hope!
Dang, nice!
Don't give up, just make a channel about gaming, you never have to finish anything, wink.
I will add on my comment. I did gave up on unity. But I am now a front end developer. Unity was never for me but react, js, css, node and express.js clicked for me.
ditto. I fuckin' hate unity at college.
Such an excellent video Team Brackeys !!
Also, it always warms my heart to see Asbjorn wear Line of Code merch ;D !
Yeeeay
Noa is here 😊😊😊😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yeah! Now you are more important in the Dev comunity!
Try to download an asset pack.. some have water included. my favorite is flooded grounds
I must say, Brackeys seems like the happiest dude on the planet. I really appreciate his positivity and it makes the videos that much better :D
I swear I thought the thumbnail was Minecraft hahaha. Awesome video my dude! =D
He has to try to code such a game
Agreed

1) Ability to create holes (for caves etc)
2) Compatibility with LWRP&HDRP (incuding foliage; currently terrain is not fully SRP compatible!)

Holes is difficult because it requires an entire rework to voxel based terrain
@@shniss5403 Unity doesn't need to go that far. Most games don't use voxel terrains, they just cut out a hole in it and then use models the rest of the way. Something like deleting faces with a mask would work perfectly.
Well we could just make the terrain in blender and export it as fbx mesh and use model to terrain tools from marketplace to turn it into terrain!
LWRP and HDRP compatibility is there now. As for foilage you will have to make custom shaders for that. There is a guy who has done it on the asset store but it is paid
You are totally right. I really need caves in my game.

that guy has left youtube for two years and he is still helping me
1- Need holes to cave system.
2- The uv are triplanar?
3- Populate with trees are there?
4- Generate texture by height?
Thank you sooo much I am creating a game for a geography project so this helps so much.
Unity needs float point for terrain so that there wont be bugs the farther you get from zero zero
Thanks bro. Well explained. I'm new to unity. Was trying to see so many tutorials. But most of them are speed level. Couldn't figure out what they were doing. Thanks a ton.
It's sad that Unity did not have these features until now, but no matter.
Better later than never.
Just started learning Unity today and I definitely learned a lot from this video. Thanks!
Brackeys: unity gonna come out with more brushes in 2019 pack
me in 2021: i have less brushes than what you have in the video.
i followed along and got the burshes, you gotta download the asset pack as well
