Week #3: World Building
Fantasy Kingdom
In UE4 vs Original Model from Mixamo
UE4 crashed a lot with the error "D3D Device lost". I'm still not sure why its happening nor how to fix it. I updated drivers and Windows and it seems to have brought down the frequency of when it happens, but it does occasionally still happen. At least now, I can make good progress before it crashes. When UE4 crashed it did something weird to my landscape, and I wasn't sure how to fix it, so I just remade the Landscape Material.
Changes:
Redid Landscape to add a lake and rivers with the UE4 Water plugin.Â
Painted Landscape (can be better)
Added Demon Models (turned out transparent for some reason, but I like this better)
Added Trees and foliage
Added Carts, Barrels, Boxes
Added Petal Particle System
Made the light/sky nighttime
Next Steps:
Add & Improve Lighting
Add more Creatures & Humans(maybe)
Fill up the center of the Kingdom with more props
Improve texturing on the landscape, especially the mountains
Maybe music?
