[PROBLEM] Low poly / compiling shaders

anonymous_user_3e9a9bb71 · August 6, 2016, 12:04pm

Hi guys,

I’ve starting my first project 4month ago…
First make landscape, foliage, rock…etc…use epic free assets…all very beautiful…
After i’m starting make a big house in details working 1 month on this…just finish

But now, looking my landscape, foliage, mesh…all became lowpoly !!

What’s happen ?

My parameters looks good :

Just have upgrade my engine 4.12.5, no pluggins…

Load Epic project (particle project) => no problem.
Start new project => no problem.
Add new SM_Rock (epic mesh) or existing foliage and my project => low poly !!

Any ideas ??

It’s look like there is no compiling shader on my landscape / rock / foliage…

Please help me…5 months of hard work…

Thanks guys.

I have the same problem with my grass, but not any of the rest of it.

I’ve clean my DerivedDatacache…no result…

I’ve started new project and copy/paste my meshes…
First it’s good…but one moment after…all became lowpoly…really don’t know what’s happen…

Not really photorealistic -_-

Tried this?

I’ll try that and let you know, but it would also be nice to know what initially caused it and how to fix that.

OMG !

Monsterlutz, you save me !! It’s working !

Perhaps my level is too big…

Solution :

1/ Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\4.12\Engine\Config and open ConsoleVariables.ini

2/ Add this : r.Streaming.PoolSize=4000 and save…

3/ Open project and enjoy.

Thanks you a lot !!

I finally got around to it. Didn’t work for me. What worked was placing a static mesh of the grass in the scene and walking straight up to it so that its streaming priority would get a boost. Obviously this isn’t an ideal permanent solution!
