Very cool asset and a great insightful video
-
Not just Oceanology, but also how to use Brushify!!! In fact, creating a map from scratch! Subscribed 😁
-
Just to let you also know, for the 26:01 there is no need for smoothing if you just change the height and size of the mountains etc by their brush settings instead of scaling them in the editor. I just discovered that while I was playing with it. If you change height and size in the blueprint settings, it does not step and everything is smooth already.
-
This looks good for something I'm trying to do, but how does Oceanology treat the inside of vessels? One of the issues I see often is waves clipping through the boat, especially below deck and that's something I'm trying to avoid.
-
Great video man :)
-
I need to reach out to you but not on discord, do you've communication anywhere else?
-
Thanks for the share !
-
I do like the Brushify stuf BUT was not happy when he said making a couple layers height adjustable for seabeds/beach's was to costly and never helped me or would not make a couple of optional layer functions that people could add if the chose. I neded that help because I'm not great with code BTW have you looked at Errant Proton's Errant landscapes tools

im having an issue with a 3rd person game mode working with this map. for some reason i cant actually walk around the island and when i spawn it just puts me in the air and i cant move even though i only have one player start and its on the island. If i play as standalone game it spawn me in the correct area on the island but then i cant move or see my character in 3rd person. and if i hit play from here on the island it still puts me in the sky.

now im having problems with frame freezing somtimes and getting 5fps. i noticed when you tested the horizon map you also had the same issue. i have a 3090ti and im testing an island i made in gaea and every time i add the water i get huge performance issues. is there any way to optimize this or some fix. i did turn lumen off and the virtual shadow maps and the issues still persisted the same. it strange, my test with my island has no foliage or textures and it has poor performance but then i load the horizon map in and i do not lose any frames or freeze. i am so lost. it seems like the demo is optimized better cause when i try making my own open world with world partition i just lag. i have to delete the demo landscapes and add my own in just to get it working fine. sorry for messaging you again but im just kinda new to unreal engine.
