Help me understand Landscape material setup
I have setup landscape mats in the past, but with newer versions of UE4, things have changed. I have my landscape setup like this, and its causing me nothing but issues. I cant seem to paint correctly at all. I have it set to "non-weight blended" and for some of the materials, it paints the terrain black. Sometimes I cant… -
Creating Good Ground Textures and Materials in UDK
Hey guys I could use a bit of advice and some thoughts. I am currently working on an environment with my friend and we are trying to tackle laying down do ground materials.

Evaporating Material
Hi everyone, this question is for anyone with the UDK love. Basically, I want to make a material that will start 100% opaque and end 100% transparent. It needs disintegrate in specific areas.

2D and 3D Materials Confusion.
Hey guys, I'm having a hard time differentiating between 2d and 3d textures/materials/substances/shaders. It all seems so complicated. My goal is to render semi-complex scenes with walls made of individual stone blocks, rock piles, carved columns and other carved objects, maybe like a high-poly Dark Souls. I am *not*… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | May - June (102)
Hi! Nice updates! Thanks for reminding me of the challenge :sweat_smile: @BillyJackman I like personality it got, with the frame looks like it has a grin. If you intended to work on this some more, I think some dynamism/ folds in the hanging scroll would enhance it more. And perhaps some more material definition, so it…
