for those of you like me, if u dont see the landmass blueprints then you have to enable the landmass plugin under the EDIT tab

It took me a lot of time to figure it out but if you are facing a problem with your character walking through the trees and rocks, then only adding collision wont work, go to the foliage mode, then scroll down until you find the (collision preset) panel and then select block all dynamics. Hope this helps!

Popping by to say this was an awesome tutorial. Both me & one of my high school students followed it together for his independent project this week and we both got it done with little issues (on our end). Awesome job!

If you get the issue at 10:00 where you drag in the ocean and can't get your landscape back to its original look, go into the "WaterBodyOcean" details, search for "terrain" and under "Water Heightmap Settings", change the "Blend Mode" to Max. Then scroll all the way up and manually lower the oceans height.

Hope this helps some people :)

Can't wait to play around with this tomorrow. Should be really fun. Thanks for the intro tutorial, good kickstart.

Dude I’ve been looking for something like this for YEARS…this is so much simpler than doing everything manually

[DragonBread]

this was a fantastic tutorial. I'm trying to make my first game and I've been really stuck. I found this and now I'm definitely going to go back to watch the whole Lyra series, maybe I'll finally get somewhere!

[thPoundcake]

I've been using unreal for years and I had no idea you could just add an ocean like that. I always made a plane and assigned a water shader and a custom post process volume. That alone was worth watching this for me!

[RThauby]

Dude. 30 seconds in and answered a question i've been searching for for a while. Fantastic tutorial!

[conditionallytriggered]

Thank you so much for making this! I have been racking my brain for days trying to find out how to do something like this. You just saved me much time. You're a blessing to all of us still learning the ropes <3

[GaryParkin]

I'm totally blown away at the ease of this tutorial. I've been messing with UE for almost 2 years now and I haven't found a landscape tutorial that looks as real to a game as this one. And so simple. Thank you for all the help. I had almost given up on creating an outside environment. UE5 rocks! I'll be checking out the Easy Building system too fore sure.

I didn't think making a 3d game space and game was realistic for me to get into but after watching this, I defiantly want to get this unreal engine 5 and see if I can make this game idea I've had for a while. Great tutorial, Ill be back to reference this to learn what I'm doing once I download the program.

[SevenDos]

Thanks for this tutorial, this was really helpful in learning some of the tools I didn't know about yet. Great work for providing this!

[fathercrim]

I came back to reference this video, multiple times, for the past 3 days. This was extremely helpful. My computer is just hella slow. I'm surprised I can even do any of this

[drekenproductions]

absolutely amazing. love all the tips will be using this soon

[MuziFN]

guys if you have water problem all you need is to add water first and then make landscape an adjust where u like in that case your island base must be high or the water will glitch

[STLLSLW]

I never thought id start to get the hang of any of this. This video has proven me wrong!!

Very helpfull tutorial for a beginner like myself with no knowledge about unreal engine. thanks for creating it took me about a day to get my world layout up and running
