I think I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. For some reason no one else showed that you have to actually select the entire height map terrain in order to properly texture it. I'm going to try it when I get home.

I can't find the heightmap in the description

[johndoe]

Finally. Iv been digging and digging for this exact tutorial thank you so much

I wish there was a more in depth video on what to put into the options at the beginning, where it says section size or quads.

I'm not sure how "big" a quad is. And if I want to create a massive open world what would the correct size be, should I open one huge level. Or break it up into smaller bits?

Using any tool accept sculpt makes a random hole or hill, literally just randomizes the terrain. Flatten, smooth, they make holes and square hills for no reason. Why is this? It doesn't do that for you and I was doing the exact same thing.

Hi, first i want to say, really educative video, thank you for sharing this. I got a question, what if i'd like to recreate the world ? how could i do it ? This method would work ?

[ghosteso]

I’m trying to find the link to download the map as a base to work with but I can’t seem to find it? Could you point me in the right direction please? 😂

My character is not showing when I click play and I end up just floating around the world when I move my mouse. How do I fix this?

[CalebJMartin]

When you pressed the play button and the actor dropped into the map...how did you do that? Every time I press play, the camera just sits there until I press escape.
Thank you for the work you put into this video!

[MrBLid]

Great video! You mention a heightmap in the description?

[garlandpoolfredpool]

Ok, I had a martini and followed along...got some grass on some hills! Thank you! Now, I want to see how you get rocky outcroppings in addition to your grass.

i can't sculpt the heightmap waht is my problem ?

[md.nasimsaba]

Best video on Terrain creation. Thanks Bro.

[FPChris]

I need sections and regions and the resolution explained. Why it needs so many settings.

[WaZ]

For a beginner tutorial it does not say where I get grass material and how to apply it. For me all the materials turn black.

[andrewkinsey]

Was pleased to see this, but kind of brought to a screeching halt by the height map not being linked

[claudlowe]

I do wish for a video on how to paint landscapes as I'm having trouble going from sculpt to paint.
