    This pinned comment is where I will be listing known issues, as well as providing updates in the future. If you have any suggestions for EasyMapper, comment them here!
    1. If you can't add custom textures, because you're getting a red box around the slot, you need to use the correct Master Material, depending on whether you are using Virtual Textures (VT) or not.
    2. To migrate EasyMapper to your project, see the timestamp at the 28:00 mark.
    3. If EasyMapper's displacement doesn't work, you need to make sure that nanite is enabled on your models. Nanite Tessellation requires... Nanite.
    4.EasyMapper works with Pathtracing, but Nanite Displacement specifically will not work with Pathtracing.

      Can you rotate a world aligned texture in EasyMapper?

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Год назад +2

      @@kingwrightdev Not in easymapper no. You can rotate the texture with some functions but the normals and displacement will get messed up

      What an awesome product! I don’t know if there’s a way of doing it already, but it would be cool if it was possible to generate a texture for a surface you’ve applied an easymapper material to; so that you could use that texture to displace the actual geometry (and thus be able to use the path tracer).

      I've created my own materials that use vertex color to blend. But the problem with nannite is that it tries to crunch the polygons if there isn't enough variation in position of the verticies. As in if it's a flat surface like a floor the verticies would become less and less, and therefore the areas of blending would pop in and out.. Is this somehow fixed because I never tried to paint verticies in the editor I just would import vertex color that I baked in my 3D package. Will easy mapper have to deal with this?

    Important for usage in UE5.4!!!!
    To enable tesselation using easy mapper in UE5.4 you need to open up the master material and tick "tessellation" in the details-panel of the material.
    I wish everyone a very displaced day!

    Bought the plugin/project before I even finished the video, but having used it for a bit this afternoon, it almost blows my mind that nobody has wrapped all these functions up before into a single master material that's commercially available. As far as updates go, I'd LOVE to see a Landscape version of this, especially with nanite/displacement support for terrain having been added recently. Thanks so much for this!

    Hi William. I wanted to say that your product is fantastic, very, very helpful. I run an interior architecture office, and I know that UE 5.4 now has an option to round edges, but it's only available for static meshes. Editing each kitchen front, countertop, etc., takes an enormous amount of time. Previously, I used another engine where I could apply virtual edge rounding in the material settings with just one click, and it was done. However, I want to work with UE because it’s the best in terms of photorealism.
    Is there a chance you could add a virtual edge rounding option, similar to what V-ray offers with its "round edge" feature? I think many architects would be interested in such an option. and I certainly am.
    Please think it over. Cheers.

    Hello, I just made a purchase, and if someone immediately encounters the mesh being separated after enabling Nanite, or the material looking odd even after fixing the smoothing groups via attribs.normal, here's what I did: I went into Modeling mode>Mesh>Remesh and then Modeling Mode>Model>Subdivide> subdivision level 1. This will retain the shape and add enough vertices to maintain the projection and execute the poly paint. Keeping an eye on the overall density and processing weight of the project. Excellent package, I loved it! Congratulations!

      Thanks for the advice, the fix worked for me. FYI for anyone else i've been getting this issue when i try importing meshes into unreal from blender so im unsure if this problem also persists with imported meshes from maya or 3ds max. It's some sort of issue with the deformation i think and this issue doesnt seem to exist for meshes created within unreal.

    • @biblescenes
      @biblescenes Месяц назад

      I tried this and while it fixed the corners etc. it left slight edges throughout my mesh that were visible. Eventually I found that using the Mesh>Union resolved that (I'll probably find later that I shouldn't have done it but seems to work right now). Edit. Sorry I didn't read your instructions properly, it did work for me too, thanks.

    Hey William, just purchased this product today and after following this guide I was able to do some pretty cool stuff in Unreal 5.4.1. The puddles took a bit to figure out but once I did they are really cool. I have been debating whether or not I need to purchase Substance Painter and with this tool I really don't think I need to for what I'm trying to accomplish. Although I enjoy learning, I really just want to focus on creating new content and not have to dive into all the complexities of material creation. Your product makes that possible. Thank you for offering at such an affordable price. I'm sure it took many hours to create (and more to support) and so it's a real gift to the community!

  • @iursingh
    @iursingh Год назад +5

    Wow. This is amazing. Gonna buy it ASAP!
    Also, one small suggestion. Can you add a switch option to enable ARD/ORD/ORM textures? So that we can use individual textures as well? for A B and C Materials. That would be awesome for textures outside of Megascans as well.

    • @WilliamFaucher
      @WilliamFaucher  Год назад +6

      Hi! Thanks for the suggestion, I absolutely plan on adding that option. For the moment I wanted to have base support for Megascans, since ARD/ORD/ORM is what *most* people seem to be using these days. But like you say, useful to have the choice. This will come in an update, so stay tuned. I should make a roadmap for users to check out.
      Thanks again!

    • @ReapersTruth
      @ReapersTruth 6 месяцев назад +1

      Just a small heads up, ARD(Ambient Occlusion, Roughness, Displacement) = ORD(Occlusion, Roughness, Displacement), so you can still use for example the ORD from megascans

    @robertoflores.archviz Месяц назад +4

    Hello William, excellent application but we are experiencing a problem with the new library now that they migrated to FAB it seems that the materials are only being downloaded from the ORM channel along with other channels. Do you know how we can solve this since it was easier for me to use the ARD channel which could be done from Quixel. Many of these materials are no longer working in Quixel and they are being migrated. Perhaps you will make an update for this? The ORM channel does not work well to generate the displacement and it has to be done manually by entering the channels in Unreal, which is more tedious.😔😔😟

Unreal Engine is putting great tools into people's hands but you still have to have skill to make it work, just because the lighting is good doesn't make a game good. All engines are able to produce great games, it comes down to who makes them.

      I know what you mean… as someone who has tried to use it for like 10 years… it’s so much more convoluted than unreal.
      I really seriously hate how they introduce new solutions - suggest that the old solutions are going away - then never finish the new solutions - leaving anyone trying to future proof their games with unusable products. The list goes on, but unity has developed a culture of confusing their users and wasting their time. They wear it as a badge of honor.

    Thanks for the awesome work as always William, grabbed it myself and played around it's very easy to use. A landscape version of Easymapper sounds very useful when you get around to it in 2024. I appreciate all the time you put into creating amazing videos to walk everyone through how to use it and making it so user friendly so artists can focus on creatives than the technical. Thanks again.

    Great stuff! In 5.4, the new improved Nanite Tesselation makes Easy Mapper even better - the triangle density is intense.

    Fantastic tutorial, as always. You literally covered every aspect of the process, including smoothing groups and the reset transform. Both are very important, and so many people skip those steps. Btw, UE4 had an option called 'Crack Free Displacement' which would automatically close those ugly gaps that happen between polygons that are sitting on different smoothing groups. So I am expecting future versions of UE5 could see something like that added as well.

      is there a way to do it in 5.3 ? same smoothing groups and that modeling tool tricks didnt helped me in my project.

    Thanks for the great tool! Little tip: if you're using custom textures(metallic) you need to change the master material functions for the default metallic map to linear grayscale :)

    This is awesome! We built something similar at work last year, but we had to bake the displaced results down to a mesh (thank you Geometry scripting!). I've had it on my mind to try the workflow with nanite displacement but just haven't had the time to do it on my own and we're still on 5.2 at work. Definitely buying this to support your continued fine work.

    Instant buy - great work as always William. Turns out it works nice in desktop VR as well (with some Lumen glitches that are not specific to your material)

    Hey William! Thanks for the EasyMapper, it's good and convenient! I think adding also an option for Emissive map would be nice improvement to it.

    Nice to see you again William! Brilliant as always! I am actually start using it right away and it is brilliant. I wonder would you be up for implementing a switch for using ARD/ORD maps and separate textures for those. I know you can just make ARD yourself, but the flexibility would be nice to have on top of the awesomeness. Thanks for your hard work.

    I happened to be up late when you first dropped the video and I rushed to the Marketplace to grab this. Another great tutorial as always! Haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I’m excited to use this on a landscape project I’m working on later on this month. Hopefully you can add a fourth texture slot as well as a puddle slot like you mentioned at the end of your video.

    Still pretty new to UE 5 and fiddling around with displacements. EasyMapper is really cool, no argue about that. Still i had a hard time when i do not want to use virtual textures.
    I simply could not get it to work on an Instance of Easy Mapper without VT. UNTIL i read the comment from hytaleGermany..the tick was missing. Thx a lot for that man! - Danke schön für die Info :)
    It is a real helper for me. Not as easy to use as you try to sell, but once you figuer out how it is working and learn a little about images an materials in UE5, it is so much fun converting boaring, repeating textures into something individual in notime. Thx, Bill !

    Dude, while I am already past the master material level and may just get it to see how you set some stuff up, so I can integrate it into my own, I LOVE how you always go above and beyond with explaining settings and possible issues...
    I´ve completely missed the transition of vertex painting being moved to the modelling tools section and been frustratedly given up on vertex painting nanite meshes, because the mesh painting didn´t work on them....:)
    Also great tip with the bake transforms, another regular issue I have when working with scaled meshes in my scenes, not just related to displacement...

    This looks fantastic, William! For shots that don't require path tracing this will be a huge help! Though, it seems like Epic is trying to get us to move on from path tracing with Lumen and Nanite anyway, so maybe the point is moot? Super excited to try out the vertex painting feature!
