Can u start making a game turtorial
thx so much
the trees are all pink/magenta for some reason please help
Please help. When I installed Terrain Tool Assetpack, I get the new brushes but new options are missing. Can you please suggest something. Thanks
The thing he did in the first 5 seconds is literally every game Dev's dream
Haha Sony be like 🤩🙏😍🤡
Bruh
LMFAO
@GAMING SOLUTION what?
@@mikethegamedev knowing where to start, I assume.
20 seconds into the tutorial and I just want to say: I appreciate that you actually list out all the things needed before we even begin, and that you showed the specific items you used! Thank you. So many tutorials get half way in and say "go grab a ___" and you have to scramble to find something that matches to follow along.
I appreciate that!
Facts 😄
@@Hiperleo Thank you so much! That saved me so much time!
@@UGuruz I couldn't find the terrain tools in the unity store, do you have a link for it?
@@thesithofearth3617 Its not on the store but rather in the package manager. You can find the Package Manager in the window tab. Search for terrain tools there and you should be able to download it.
I am leaving this comment because when someone will like this, then I will get reminder to see this again. (To see where I begin and where I am now!)
Where are you now
I think I have learnt a lot now. I think I have learnt 5% of unity which is very great.
Hey man, Im thinking of learning animations in my free time, please suggest me a good source....is this channel worth sticking to?
@@vinayjustin1309 incern is a good web site
No It's not for Animations.
For the people missing Terrain Tools: You have to go to the advanced settings on the Package Manager (under Project Settings, or clicking on the Cog on the Package Manager window -> Advanced Project Settings), and enable "Preview Packages". Apparently the tools is still on development or something. It works, tho.
Thanks for the info.
OMG THANKS
yes same it opens asset manager and then nothing happend
God bless you man! I was lost for some time! xD
Спасибо!
That's amazing. I always thought that these maps take weeks to create and here one person creates a forest in a few minutes. Great appreciation for the creators of such engines
I have been playing around with the unity terrain tool for a while and I wish I found this tutorial first because it would have save me a lot of pain. Great work!
You're very welcome!
Hi...Can I able to save the created scene in unity in image or gif format
No mid video promotion, explaining things in a easy to understand way, straight to the point, listing everything needed at the beginning of video, and responding to a lot of comments. This is possibly the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. Thank you, it really helped. Keep it up.
As a beginner in Unity with no prior gamedev or modeling experience, I found this very easy to understand how to replicate! I'll definitely be using this as a guide to help sculpt my first game environment. Thanks!
I thought game development needs extreme art mastery, that's why I didn't focus much to learn it (cause I hate drawing/painting), but then I saw this and knew that there are trees and grasses that are ready to use for game designing. Thanks a lot 😊
for those having trouble with grass gap: Goto terrain setting: -set "Detail Resolution" to 4000 (more is better). -set "Detail Resolution Per Patch" to 20 (less is better).
thx brother
you just saved a life xD
@@wolfuna here that alot on my channel too 😁 its good to know my stuff helps others.
It's not working
I cant place grass
this is most briefly explaine tutorial i have found on youtube ! Thank You
You're very welcome!
@@UGuruz pardon me sir i have a question. imagine that we have a 3d collada file model and we want to rig it for unity project.but it s from a ps1 game (it s old)and the faces are triangle and also blender cant convert it to quad..what is the best way for rigging and make it to quad face model?
This isn't a video--it's a master class on the basics of creating a beautiful terrain. He takes a potentially confusing topic and teaches the steps to be used in a logical, concise step-by-step approach. OUTSTANDING!!!
Yeah, he made a potentially complicated and intimidating process (for beginners) very easy to understand and follow!
2:33 Set height > 100m height > Flatten Tile, raises the tile to 100m in height and makes it flat. 2:50 Shortcuts.

Can you tell me why i cant use Hotkeys, ASD => i added all Assets and have same brushes. I made terrain but i cant use Hotkeys A S D.... i cli k on A (hold it) and then move the mouse nothing happens or click on Left or right click and it just create terrain. How to use the hotkey? HOLD with shift? Strg? Alt ? which combo ?
you're the best
Add terrain tools
He covered everything you need to do in unity terrain in 15 minutes, amazing
For real. You can then do more advanced things like NavMeshes on the grey path parts and have NPC models walk along, etc. Maybe paint a road and put cars down. Doesn't take that long in the grand scheme of things to get a believable, living world built.
Or you can press shift to remove the tree regardless what you've selected in terrain tree section. Great tutorial. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the tip!
thanks
Wow, great tutorial! I have been binge watching most of the unity ones that I can find. Yours is very easy to follow along and informative. Keep up the good work.
Awesome, thank you!
I agree, very well explained and easy to understand. Keep it up!
@@UGuruz For some reason I can’t get grass, I need to save images from google and put them as the grass texture but for some reason they come out as rectangles, where do you get the grass? Sorry for my English
The fact that you did this in 15 minutes is impressive than the other developers because they were so lazy to make the graphics look great, they just want to make it that looks like a mobile/Ps2 game. You deserve to be an excellent game designer 👏
Importing heightmaps etc. can be a pain in the butt. This is so much kinder and gentler for just getting started.
I just want to say this is an excellent guide, thank you for taking the time to make everything step by step!
You're very welcome!
This was an awesome tutorial. I'm a web developer, who kind of getting bored and decided to learn how to make games. So I'm learning segments of what I need to do. This tutorial not only help me understand how to use the application, but to properly edit my terrains and make nice design concepts. THANK YOU @UGuruz
Bro this was amazing, i was looking for years for a tutorial this good!!! Thank you :D
Wow!!! Thank you so much for such an easy to follow tutorial. Videos like this make Unity feel way less overwhelming. Thank you!!! [*beginner here!*]
I have been watching videos on this terrain tool all day today and this guy hit every point with really good explanations in under 17 minutes. I applaud you sir.
Wow, thanks!
First of all, I really like your description, it is an easy and nice tutorial. However, I'm gonna say that it would be easier if you place the grasses before trees, because it is really hard to see empty places when trees are placed. Thanks for the video!
This is an awesome tutorial. Thanks, especially for explaining the sizes in terms of meters.
This was just terrific, I thank you! I am brand new to Unity and this was so great.
thank you, I've just started on Unity and keep coming back to this tutorial :)
Glad I could help!
I started with unity, and ended up with unreal engine:p
My journey was -> Unreal Engine -> fck C++ -> Unity -> C# is great -> bUt FaNcY lIgHtS -> Unreal Engine -> *Unity Releases High Definition Render Pipeline* -> fck this shit I'm outta here Bitch -> Unity for ever and always

So far the best overview of Terrain System. Thanks man!
Glad it helped!
We can be soooooo happy to have you in the Unity Community ! :) Thanks for that nice Video ! :)
Welcome!
very great tutorial, clear and well managed (chapters and ressources, great idea) ! A huuuge thanks from France ;)
You're very welcome!
This looks amazing!! If I wasn't a Composer for Game Music, I would love to spend all my time on this!!
Gonna watch this whole thing another 5 times until I get it right. Thank you for your work
Me too! I ended up with a terrain full of blinking mountains when I wanted a flat rolling terrain with pathways lol!
Instructions unclear accidently created GTA 7
Hell naahh bro, we are waiting gta6 😢
😂
Easily the video I've searched for but not found.. then recommended to me by KZhead lol
Only took about five minutes to explain editing terrain and texture painting. My favorite👍 thank you for uploading.
Glad it was helpful!
This is so perfect and clear, thank you so much!
Great tutorial, thanks! Quick question, using only the (awesome) assets you listed, there is an option to easily adjust the wind setting for grass and plants, which work well but have no effect on the trees. Can you point out where to find those pls? The scene does not look natural with the ground assets moving but the trees remain dead still :D
For those who Terrain tools doesn't appear, just download and import the terrain tools asset sample pack. I did that and after like 5-7 minutes my new brushes appeared. Maybe even restart Unity.
Thank you - tried re-importing it like 5x's.
@@Newsandjy You are welcome!
The asset pack is optional. But they are quite good, so it'd be rude to say no.
I had to restart unity and they appeared. good tip
Best in the youtube! You save my life man! Thank you so much for this tutorial! ❤❤❤❤
As a newcomer i find this vid high peak and the best so far ngl, you made my game beautiful ty man
Who’s watching even though they don’t have a pc nor a laptop? Edit: Bought my new Pc After 2 years of work/investment and savings!
Apparently only you
@ClumsyFox well what can u do when u’re poor 😪
@@nib10 i second that. I got the PS4 years after release, imagine having the money for a proper PC
I'm only here to make my game look better

you saved me so much time and my pc didn't explode trying to do that thanks
I've been watcNice tutorialng tNice tutorials and you inspired to try to make soft so I thank you
great tutorial, can u make one for the displacement map in Terrain, mine looks very Poor Quality
Great Tutorial! Is there any way to quickly make straight lines of trees or do we just have to place those one by one ourselves?
New tutorial coming on this topic.. very soon..😀
Subscribed to this wonderful Human
God bless you, you have made unity seem so simple. I totally understand terrain building.Keep it up Man😁😁
Don't forget you HAVE to set a height (using set height) and do "flatten tile" to be able to LOWER a terrain, took me a while to figure out why shift-click to lower wasn't working lol!
ty!
Muito lindo, thanks.
I’ve been looking for a video like this for so long!!!!

Please com again

this is hands down the best guide i’ve ever seen! 🧡
thanks mate ... super tutorial .. very clear, great structure .. no beating around the bushes ...
Glad you liked it
I tried to make a scene by using my own trees and grasses but it was too ugly. I just want to salute to the guy who made all the texture and giving it for free. After all it's the textures and trees which beautify the environment.
you can do it, just make sure that the textures you use are seamless and have enough quality for large terrains.
@@ogr2 yeah, but im very bad at making textures.
I watched the whole video 4 times while downloading the assets haha
lmao ikr it takes forever to download them when you got a slow computer
Thanks so much. Amazing how easy and free good graphics are with unity
I came across this video by accident. very helpful! Thank you!
Someone needs to make a tutorial on how to make dense forests that don't destroy your fps. These trees are so spread out and wouldn't hide any points of interest that you would build around the terrain.
Reduce draw distance, use fog, LOD's, Occlusion culling, etc. His terrain is just really flat which is why it looks plain. Instead of also perfectly spacing out the trees. Have more dense and less dense areas. You also need to be aware that optimization and clever planning will be most of your time. Not really a tutorial that can be made as it would take too long but just study other games terrain
Reminder to turn off auto generated lighting while you are painting/sculpting the terrain
How do we do that?
@@darshanumapathi7905 bottom right. Click the lightbulb
If anyone doesn't know what it does, it just reduces the lighting graphics for the terrain so your PC doesn't lag.
This tutorial changed the way I make terrain. Before I watched this my terrain was the one of the worst things you could possibly look at and now the terrain I make is actually good.

To Summarise: Download a bunch of fancy assets, and use a grass mesh instead of a texture.
Yes
This is the equivalent of using free assets in roblox studio....pretty lame.
@@unbearabletruth4310 whats lamer by far is not doing anything, not even practicing with sample assets, and whining in a comment section
That is soooo amazing! I didn’t know it was this easy thank you so much
Happy to help!
BRAVO THX dude it helped me alot you gained a sub :)
So i dont know why but for the terrain tool sample pack, i have it imported but i don't have the additional settings and am not able to engage the brush hotkeys either.
Probably too late of a reply, but for anyone else who needs it, the version with the stroke section and tools such as the hotkeys requires the Terrain Tools found under package manager, instead of the one from the asset store. To see it, click the cog in the top right of package manager and click to enable Preview Packages. Then, search Terrain Tools in the package manager search bar and install from there
@@wumbuswoof336 It isn't too late lol. I simply just put this on the backburner. Thanks.
@@ctfan It happened to me too and I got so confused. Click Window - Package Manager - Click the cog on top right - Advanced Project Settings - Enable Preview Packages Then just go to Package Manager, search Terrain Tools, click it and install
@@wumbuswoof336 oh no i did that. But for some odd reason,I don't have all the additional settings that go with it
@@ctfan Even with both the in-menu install and the stores assets version together installed?
When I download terrain tools and import idk what happened to my strokes and i cant add textures pls help
sorry man i am having the same problem wish i could help
Go to edit terrain layers and select create layer
After going to paint texture

can pentium dual core 4gb ram and gt 710(overclocked) run unity engine for such projects,, i need a reply plz

@@ajtowey3687 😭😭 even i5 9th gen 8 gb ram cant run it?

But unity is free so you could try it out and if it doesn’t work you could upgrade
