Landscapes need a rework after years without big changes

If you use 255 quads for 8k map with 32x32 components, then the overall resolution will be 16,321m. That will effectively make it a 16k map, not 8k.
with 127 Quads, even when editing Landscape, the memory doesn’t go over 4GB. I have used a fully textured map with foliage painted and memory uses remain around 4-8 GB depending on what I was doing.

If you want to use 16k map, then you are better off with tiled map with world composition, I’m not sure even CE5 cant handle a single 16k map.

No the size of UE4 is 8x8 and you can check the defautl size is 8x8 not 16x16 with all at is 8x8km with a 1m = 1vertex poor detail.

You’re a luck by the way, cause there we are more people with the same problem.

And there is other problem can’t use different landscapes since you can’t with the engine tools without multiple generated heightmaps make the landscapes in sides have the exact height…
