Description
Full Environment Creation in UE5 & Blender - In-Depth Course
Learn how a professional environment artist works when creating environments for games. You'll learn techniques like Modular Modeling, Procedural Texturing, Unique Texturing, Level Art & Composition, shader Creation, Lighting, Character Animations and so much more.
BLENDER, SUBSTANCE, AND UNREAL ENGINE 5
All the modeling will be done in Blender3d, However, the techniques used are universal and can be replicated in any other 3d modeling package. The materials will be created using Substance Designer and previewed in marmoset toolbag 4. The environment will be built in the brand-new Unreal Engine 5 and the lighting will use the new Lumen system. We will also use the new modeling tools within Unreal. Next to this, we will also use Substance Painter to create unique textures and generate masks.
In this course, you will learn everything you need to know to create the final results that you see in the images and trailers. Next to this, the same techniques can be applied to almost any type of environment.
31+ HOURS!
This course contains over 31+ hours of content - You can follow along with every single step - The course does enclose a few small-time lapses, this is just to speed up very repetitive tasks, the rest is done in real-time. However, we have also included the time lapsed footage in real-time.
We will start by going over our reference and then we dive right in and create a blockout of our level and set it up in UE5. Then we will first create all of our procedural materials and we will turn our blockout models into final models and also UV unwrap/texture them right away.
Once that is done we will export all the artwork to Unreal engine 5 and setup our level.
We will create advanced shaders to give us control over everything from vertex painting to dirt masks to parallax and next to this we will also create a basic landscape material.
We will be using the new modeling tools within UE5 to speed up our workflow and minimize the modular pieces we need to make.
Finally we will do our scene lighting using the new Lumen system and we will do the color grading in Davinci Resolve.
Then to bring our scene to life I will show you how you can quickly generate character animations using Mixamo and I will even show you how to manually animate a horse in blender.
SKILL LEVEL
This game art tutorial is perfect for students who have some familiarity with a 3d Modeling tool like Blender, Substance Designer/Painter, and Unreal Engine - Everything in this tutorial will be explained in detail. However, if you have never touched any modeling or texturing tools before we recommend that you first watch an introduction tutorial of those programs (you can find many of these for free on YouTube or paid on this very website)
TOOLS USED
Blender3D
Substance 3D Designer and Substance 3D Painter
Unreal Engine 5
Marmoset Toolbag 4
Davinci Resolve
Mixamo
