There’s another problem with the Rough Grass. The wind doesn’t work on the desktop version.

There’s another problem with the Rough Grass. The wind doesn’t work on the desktop version.

Thanks for the bug report coreyx. We’ve been able to reproduce it and hope to have a fix soon. Anyone who’s purchased the Rough Grass model will be able to download it again once it’s fixed.

Love me some high quality tree models

I’ve noticed you can get away with a fair few trees, but when you cover the landscape in a lot of foliage (Grass) the performance drops through the floor. I bought the rough grass and it’s also black at one side.

I’ll modify in modeller, but these were my first impressions when ultilising the pre-made foliage.

I seem to get black billboards when I modify the Blue Spruce Normal/Winter, Scots Pine Bare and Broadleaf models (all desktop). Not sure what is happening, but when they are modified, the modeler always exports black billboards. (And horizontal billboards still don’t work, the texture is there, but the plane on the model is not).

Shadow, rough grass has its normal textures disabled (both of them), they have to be enabled inside the modeler. I think they wanted their LOD system to work with grass, so they still put 2 materials there, which I think is a bit of over kill for grass, there’s no need to double the draw calls in my opinion.

Edit: Black billboard texture happens on 2048x2048 res only it seems.

That’s good to know thanks Chariots, it would be problematic for people who haven’t subbed to the modeller though.

@ :

We have a problem with Rough_Grass_Desktop_Cluster once it is painted over a larger testing area. The perfomance dropped from 60 FPS down to 17.06 FPS as soon as the playerdummy entered the area.

The Desktop Cluster has 720 Triangles (180 in LOD1). Would you recommend to use the mobile version instead for dense meadows and to use the Desktop version only in areas were is no mass population of grass?
I fear the same problem will hit us once we work on the forested areas.

Do you have any hints for us how to deal with that problem?

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, the End User License Agreement for the free UE4 Model Bundle prohibits such a distribution of those assets. I’m sorry about the inconvenience, but perhaps you could just refer recipients of your project to that product page?

It does! I think UE has native support going forward.

That is pretty promising. FBX support, , Blueprint… is really some good tech. I have tried out many techs but is really something
