Make current map into level

Development World Creation
1

Hi,

I’m pretty new with Unreal Engine 4, and I’ve got a map that is 8129x8129 in size, but I want to separate the map into 4 map levels (Streaming).
I watched a few tutorials and tried to search the internet for information on how to do this, but I didnt get any more clever on how to solve this issue.

My current map is like this:

And I would like to divide this map up in layers, so I get 4 level maps like this:

Is it possible to do this? Or do I need to create a new map divided into heightmap files?

Thanks for any help!

Best regards,
Gøran Myrland

Well, how I did it was to load my fullsize map. Then open world settings and select “Enable World Composition”. Then I open the Levels window and made a new level. After that I changed the ortographic view to top, so its easier to select the right chunk of the map.

Then go to landscape and choose manage, and select the move level and click on the map chunk you want to be in the level you created. Then redo the process until you have all the chunks as separated layers. Hope that could be of any help :slight_smile:
