Accurate collision for a low poly landscpe

[anonymous_user_40fa6869]

I’m fairly new to Unreal, but tend to pick up software pretty quickly. I’m trying to create a pretty basic low poly scene, but am running into problems with collision regarding the landscape. You see, the landscape tool in unreal is nice, but it doesn’t yield the low-poly look that I want for the scene. Thus, I modeled the landscape in Blender and exported it as an fbx model. During my first attempts to get it into the scene, I used the method in Blender where you make a copy of the model in question and rename it to, “UCX_ModelName”. However, this doesn’t yield the high-accuracy results that I need in a landscape. However, when I try to use the auto convex collision generator in Unreal, it takes a very long time if I set the accuracy to 1.0. Thus, I’m concerned about it’s effects on my computer’s performance.

Some notes on my system:
I’m running Unreal on an HP Envy that has:

• Windows 10
• An i7 quad-core processor
• 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce 740M 2GB DDR3
  Graphics Card

Thoughts? Suggestions? Am I being an idiot?

You can go into the Static Mesh Settings and set Collision Complexity to “Use Complex Collision as Simple”. This will do poly testing for collision instead of using a defined box. This gives you maximum accuracy, albeit there are performance implications depending on your scene. That said, my current project uses a very large detailed terrain and we experience no performance problems.

Thank you. I’ll try that now…

Wow! That’s exactly what I needed. Thank you.
