All language subtitles for 01-Project Explanation

Hello van.

Never come to the very first chapter on how to create easy, Foliage

for games.

So, in this chapter, I just wanted to quickly go over a few things

before we actually really dive in and start creating this tutorial.

Now.

First of all, I have this nice little scene over here and this will be

our preview scene right now.

It looks really empty.

It does look cool if I say so myself, but I made it so I might be a

bit biased.

So yeah, it does look good, but it is definitely missing something and

What we are going to go and do is we are going to try and get

something more in this direction.

I want to actually make it even better than the foliage, you see here.

So in this course, we will focus on IV on like different types of

grass.

Different types of water plants, div types of bushes trees, and we

will also create custom Leaf textures.

Now, there's a few important things that you need to know before

starting this course.

So yeah here you can see just like how that the scene will work.

So we will get started.

IV in the next course.

One very important thing is that, unfortunately, because I made the

scene for my company.

I'm not actually allowed to give this scene to you guys or at least

jobs of copyright.

I am not able to give this scene to you guys.

However, we will, of course have an Unreal Engine seen that has all of

the textures included.

So I'll text all of the foliage included into like a presentation seen

that.

We will also be creating in this course now.

For the textures.

That one is a little bit tricky.

So we will have a chapter where I will show you how to create custom

Leaf textures using photogrammetry.

That is pretty much the only way that I know how to do it at a high

quality.

I know that there are some people in more advanced tutorials that used

for example, sculpting of the actual Leaf.

Texas.

I am planning on making course like this later on, but for now, this

is easy foliage, so I need to keep it easy.

The problem with this is that I am recording this.

Winter and even if it was not winter, I probably would not be able to

find every single leaf.

I want outside because I live in a, quite a moment, own area in terms

of nature.

So this means that we will be using Ms.

And taxes.com to create or to use for our leaf and bark textures.

Now, this is completely free because Ms is owned by epic.

So it comes literally built in

You can find it down here to come slightly built in with Unreal Engine

5 and textured come is also copyright free.

Unfortunately, although I am allowed to use the texture that come

taxes.

Any textures are used for Ms.

I am not allowed to supply with you.

So in the chat in the next chapter, I believe we will be going over

on, like downloading some of our foliage textures.

And when we do that, there will be

An explanation on how you can get the texture pack in your scene

because when you first open up this scene, well, not this one, but the

preview seen you will most likely get an error saying that there are

some Texas missing because I'm not allowed to supply them.

But I will show you a way on how to actually add them back in.

Now that was about it for my explanation so that you know, where we

stand, this tutorial will be focusing completely on how to create the

actual foliage nicely optimized and also a little bit of placement how

to place it inside.

Of Unreal Engine and how to properly have all the materials set up,

although material setup is super easy because Ms.

Pretty much does it for you?

What I'm going to do now is I got a bit of a reference over here.

That I gathered once again copyright you will get used to it as an

artist but copyright can sometimes be quite annoying.

Because once again these images even though they come from Google I am

not allowed to supply them with

This tutorial.

However, I have a very nice work around and that is that if we use a

program called Pure F, and I'm just opening it up right now.

Pure have is a really awesome program that allows you to neatly

preview of your images in one go.

It is very common to use for artists.

So I definitely recommend getting it.

You can just go to Google and just type in pure, that have

And what I'm going to do is, I'm just going to go ahead and grab all

of these images and I'm going to nicely import, all of them like this.

And then when you scored use your scroll wheel, you can zoom out.

You can right-click, go to images and then go to normalize and then

set this to scale.

Or was it sighs?

I think it was sighs normalize size over here and then I can once

again, I right.

Click images range, optimal.

And there we go.

So now we have like just a nice preview.

So, as you can see, I just got a few images.

Now.

I have a little list over here of the stuff.

I want to create.

I want to create a few different types of Ivy that showed different

techniques.

I want to create IV Roots, which is a decal.

I want to create some different types of grass, some different types

of what cigars.

And when I say what the cause, I mean, this stuff.

And this kind of stuff.

So, yeah, actually I should show you.

So the IV, it will be mostly IV like this.

That you can see over here.

So it is hanging down with gravity, but I got like a bunch of

different examples for the roots.

It will be Roots like over here.

So, let's see.

So yeah, the grass, normal grass.

Ironically.

I don't have normal glass in here, but normal glass is so basic that I

don't need a reference for it.

I guess you can see this one.

What cigars.

We will have a few months so we will have

Like playing what a gas then, we will have very tall.

What's a grass?

Which is stuff that you can see over here.

And then what I also want to do is I also want to do some water cars

with some cat days or whatever.

It is called in your country.

So, I believe in in English they call them Cattails over here.

So we want to just create some of these which once again show you like

how to combine, because we will be using Speed 3, of course if you

haven't seen trailer or the description, but what I want to do is I

want to go ahead and I

To combine inside a speedtree, the procedural stuff along with

actually custom meshes.

So let's go to be quite nice lily pads.

Like quite a classic one over here.

I also want to create some flowers to go with it.

So that is going to be quite cool because it will just like out

something bushes.

You can see over here.

It will not be too special.

You can also see over here like these Bush over here and I also want

out like a few at the top.

And a simple tree which once again, I don't really need a reference

for for now, because it's just going to be very basic.

And we are going to create a custom Leaf material of course, so that

is pretty much our planning.

Now, as she, if you look at the scene, you can see that it is a

collapsed tunnel and it has like some water.

So that's why I want to also add some water plants because then we get

a Best of three worlds.

We get both like, of course, a scene where nature takes over.

So we are combining Urban with nature.

We

It's something that has to do with like what's a foliage.

We get something that has to do with hang foliage and like creeping

foliage.

So Ivan everything.

And then what you also do is later on here at the top.

We will add stuff like gas, extra bushes, and trees and everything

like that.

So it is all going to be very cool and we will end up with a really

nice scene.

So this is now our ready to go.

I will go ahead and I will save this for you guys.

So save as and I will call this reference and it will be

in your reference folder.

There you go.

Okay, perfect.

So in the next chapter, we will go ahead and we will do some actual

work, which is going to be starting by creating an IV.

So that's going to be a very interesting one.

So let's go ahead and continue with this.

In the next chapter.
