Reminder: If you are not satisfied with the quality of the "Displacement", you can change the compression of the ORDp maps to "Vector Displacement Map (RGBA8)" and then change the sampler type to "Linear Colour" in the material, but don't forget that this will increase the memory overhead.
If you're using a packed 3 channel texture like ORD with the default DXT1 compression in UE, put the displacement in the green channel and use a levels adjustment on the green channel to clip out any unused info at the min/max ends of the range. Can save memory and maximize the quality. The green channel has 1 more bit of data and any unused space in the levels view can be put to better use.
This texture and the overall functions are pretty epic and very easy to follow to make your own build from the ground up...nice one. Have a great weekend ♨

@@madhansanjay5755 vertex painting is a bit tricky. You gotta do it until you get the hang of it. To start, watch this tutorial: ruclips.net/video/VgyyHE6Vkn8/видео.htmlsi=EB-BT6EvpxpxA9nr
when i Doing in a Modeling mode plane vertex paint is working but displacement is not working. In normal mode plane displacement is working, vertex paint is not working even though i had loops.
This a very cool but per instance vertex painting is still not working on nanite meshes, so it'll work on your unique plane but never on a modular set of walls. In this case vertex paint will repeat itself on every instance of the aforementioned mesh, creating repetition, which is very counterproductive because vertex painting is used to negate repetition. Once again, very cool results, but very not production ready. For similar results on ground just use the landscapes tools and landscape layer blending system (with height selected in your layers' blending modes). vertex painting is kinda useless unless you using it on a unique mesh like a hero asset or to assign specific texture sets to architecture. But still, very cool video :P cheers
Thanks for the comment :) Yeah I know. I mentioned it in the video that becaise we're doing it from the modelong mode, it affects the source mesh. But using it and playing around with it is still cool. It's not production ready for games, but for cinematics we can use it. Looks great.
Hello, I hope you’re doing well. I’m facing an issue and would appreciate your guidance: Whenever I try to import a material from Fab into my Unreal Engine project, the material doesn’t load correctly and doesn’t display anything. At one point, I edited its Blueprint, and now I can’t restore it to its original state. Unfortunately, every time I import materials, they don’t work as expected. I wanted to ask if there’s any way to reset the Blueprint of the material to its default state. Thank you for your time and assistance.
@@HojDee I have not been able to get it to work. I think the sampling from the RVT doesn't compensate for the visual mesh displacement. I can't find any documentation. But I'm unsure why they aren't playing nice.

did you use the displacement scaling magnitude? I mean it's under the nanite tessellation section. So it's affecting the tessellation, using the data in the texture. But the texture is not being affected like when we multiply it.
Hi Hoj, I have a problem. I follow your video step by step in detail, I check every adjustment you make to the millimeter, but when it comes to tessellation, my material looks peaked from close up. It's kind of out of focus. It's a shame I can't send you a photo of how it looks because to you it seems that the tessellation looks perfect, but to me it looks like mini-mountains with spikes everywhere.

Ok, My problem was the meshes where I was executing the material. On a created landscape it does let me use the modeling, but on the ground asset of the star content or on the actor creation plane, it doesn't let me because of the vertices, I imagine I'll have to export to Blender and make more subdivisions.

I'll keep watching your videos to see if I can find it. Thanks.

I mean nanite doesn't need traditional vertex. But maybe they'll add it in the future veraions. It's still great for cinematics. And the height blending can be used to create different variations with material instances
@@HojDee i see a lot of people saying things like this- of course nanite needs traditional per-instance vertex painting. being able to displace a heightmap doesn't magically make the utility of per-instance vertex painting disappear. If you don't have that feature, all of those amazing highly detailed meshes end up being copy/pasted around the game- you can already see it happening with lower quality UE games that use megascans "hey theres that log again". what good is all of this extra detail if it's so repetitive? say you have a rock you want to put some moss on a very specific location, so you can't rely on RVT or distance fields. With nanite you'd have to make another copy each time. It's not a real solution, you can't ship a game with 90 slightly different copies of the same rock.
how about some hotkeys on screen. Makes it difficult when we dont know every node in the editor and the hotkeys. Also 4 minutes into the video and youve tried to rerout us to 3 different videos.
