My first height map based terrain

Hi everyone! Super excited about my first post, been playing around for a couple of days now! (mostly checking out the current Verse capabilities)

Created some terrain using software named World Machine and imported the heightmap into UEFN.

I think the level of detail here is a little too much for Fortnite to handle, as I fly around the island sections of the terrain become semi-transparent (unable to capture it with just a screenshot)

I attempted to add a lake atop part of the mountain but was unable to have it “connect”, in-game I still swim in that area, I’m sure I’m just doing something wrong :crazy_face:
