With this pack you can build out many variations of a fantasy or scifi environment with many variations of meshes and material instances that are all interchangeable. For example, cliffs, rocks, and tree barks can use the same materials. Each material can have color changed through RGB channels and even have emissives. Flower and tree leaves are interchangeable and highly customizable. Use cave meshes to create a cave system. Many preconfigured foliage types are available for easy creation of an environment. A sky dome and sky ring with many panning material instances with unique textures can be used to create a fantasy or alien atmosphere. A cube mesh can be placed with many volumetric fog instances erosion, opacity, wind speed and direction and more. Vegetation is displaced by the character and wind. Open the example map and see how the assets are used, then migrate the LR_CFE folder to your project, just remember to copy the code from the level blueprint for character vegetation displacement. See the full list of assets in technical information.

WARNING: This pack is made for Unreal Engine 5.1 and above, because the leaves are made with masked materials which only works on nanite meshes in 5.1 and above. Furthermore, no LODs were created for this pack as it is taking advantage of nanite. Trees and other meshes have UV seams in a spiraling pattern to mimic nature and blend well and be hidden into the mesh. This means that there are NO UV LIGHT MAPS and this pack should NOT BE USED WITH BAKED LIGHTING / STATIC LIGHTING. This pack is intended for dynamic Lumen lighting. I will not be supporting versions lower than 5.1.
