I have absolutely 0 experience or knowledge in game design and animation and yet I found this video extremely informative. Thanks alot for your efforts.
Second vid of yours I watch, you definitely know how to make the best tutorials of all. No wasted time, no beating around the bush, no confusing un necessary content, Just right to the point and all about learning well and fast. If you are a teacher, you must be by far as good as they get. You earn my "Best Teacher" award !! :)
I have no intention of ever learning how to do this... I just wanted to be amazed at how you folk make the games we love. Impressive stuff. The closest I ever got to making games was making battle for middle earth maps in their world builder. The level of complexity is mind-boggling to most of us.
Wow, these are very amazing. By following your tutorial, I never thought that I could create anything more realistic. With the tree tutorial you made, I can save hundreds of dollars by not buying Speedtree's trees and I can start making my own. Holy crap, you made my career easier. Thank you so much.
Even tho I'm not really into programming and videogame making, I just finished watching the whole thing.. Clear, easy to understand and quite enjoyable, really. Keep up the good work!
He did work for ArenaNet for many years, the people who made Guild Wars 1 and 2, so it makes alot of sense. So happy that he shares his knowledge with beginners.

For those who complain, this tutorial is for intermediate modelers, for basic modeling, start with basic 3Ds max tutorials. This tutorial is very good, although I didn´t like that you wasted so much atlas space when rendering grass : ) Otherwize very well done! This technique is very good for VR grass.
only 2 years late but it's important to build your atlas as you need it. Eventually that atlas would be completely full but It's a common mistake to try and fill a texture before you need it.
At the end of the grass and vegetation video you mentioned a tree tutorial I can't seem to find it? Amazing videos and thanks for sharing with the community!
Great tutorial! I'm using completely different tools (Blender, GIMP, MeshLab, xNormal & Unreal Engine 4) but a lot of the process and design logic seems to translate well.
Super-duper amazing tutorial, great speed for intermediate, thank you! For me it's all so peachy until I hit that cryexporter bit. I'm working with Unity and am a noob so I'll have to hustle a bit to get things working. I can export and have motion on small clumps but not bigger patches. Also not sure how to mix the grass planes and the other little plants to have them working in harmony in the same patch but eh - i'm 80% there with this sound and logical tutorial.
Some really good tips here. Gonna use this with blender and Unreal 4, I'm sure it'll work much better than the individual blades of grass I was using. Gonna check out your tree tutorial next, if I can find it, because currently my tree has over one hundred thousand polygons and that's not good lol
OMG This was soo amazing, I've started using 3ds max a half a year ago... so cool to see what incredible things you can do with it!! And the world looks so damn real!! Hope to do something like this someday... Thanks alot for this awesome video!!
This is the best tutorial I've ever found. But wouldn't it be better to move the edges of the grass mesh towards the image to reduce the number of transparent pixels? For optimization.
my congrats, you are a maestro. perhaps some layering variation (such as some colors leading to taupes instead of all bright greens) will bring much more realisticity to the whole.
Great tutorial! Im wondering if you are going to create an oak tutorial, would you also mind making one for the creation of fir trees? And remember to also teach how to make the trees look like they are blowing in the wind, since i feel that is quite realistic and looks good.
This one right? (ua-cam.com/video/9MYGCdf9VHs/v-deo.html) I am doing it too right now. Sooo many things to learn with 3ds Max and other software. It is literally insane that real games havev massive amounts of assets and other stuff :D
@@ronaldwoofer5024 It never gets easier, it gets faster or more methods to appear. But then will use any extra time to polish it so it never gets faster too.
Awesome tutorial, thanks for sharing! You mention a tree tutorial at the end of the video. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find it in your channel. Could you provide a link, please?
Really great tutorial. Definitely going to use some of these techniques. Where is the oak tree tutorial available? Or is that still coming? Thanks for the video, you guys should upload more often. I really enjoy seeing your techniques.
Hello, I am from Czech republic and your tutorials are very good! Will you do some tutorials for beginners? It will be very big help for me and I think, that no only for me. Thanks :)
This tutorial is great. I've just got one problem, when I render the textures out I get a thick black line around the diffuse texture. Is there something in my render settings I need to change?
I'm not sure if you covered this in the video or not, but I'm wondering how I can make vegetation fit to the heightmap terrain in Cryengine 5. Large masses of grass can be sticking out horizontally and it looks pretty weird; Align to heightmap etc does not work; is there a secret button I've missed out on?

8 years have passed and its still relevant till this day. Thanks pops
Amazing tutorial! Even 4 years later this is still a very helpful tutorial

Haha, kennyS
Miguel Lucas The Awp King
agree
kenny is dead now
Great tutorial! I'm using completely different tools (Blender, GIMP, MeshLab, xNormal & Unreal Engine 4) but a lot of the process and design logic seems to translate well.
Lord Badjah Mostly as far as I can tell, at least I've had no problems so far. I am VERY new to UE4 and games dev in general though.
ARCHmatux Im using blender gimp and ue4 too, its quite the same process I think. :) Some of the vegetation rendering might be different
ARCHmatux can you upload a tutorial PLEASE!!!! I can't find any good tutorials for UE4 PLEASE I'M BAGGING YOU!!!!!!
2020 and still this tutorial is useful af.
I work in maya but I could pretty easily translate your steps to a different program. Great tutorial!
Again, excellent tutorial ! More, more, more, please !
I really wish the tree tutorial still existed you have a very understandable flow...
I learned alot about vegetation creation for use in games. Going to create trees for use in my Unreal Engine level. Thanks! :)
DUDE! You're so friggen good! you simplify stupidly difficult problems and make it awesome!

Simple and clean tutorial. Thx!
Wow! You are awesome at moddeling!
I dont know if anybody has ever told you, BUT YOU ARE THE MAN!
Thank you for your vids
Great tutorial. watched in 2x speed and still understood you.
even in 2020 this is better tutorial than some modern blender shit

One of the best video on the topic i've seen. Congrats. Subscribed.

but this guy help me alot explaining how to create a really good maps for my proyect
Wow, one of the best tutorials I've ever watched. Thanks, you have yourself a new sub!
Great! Recently started studying game design and made my first vegetation in max today. Learned quite a few new things here though ^^
Thank you so much! This tutorial's really well done. Fast and thorough.
Thanks for the tutorial, I used Maya and Unreal Engine and got pretty decent results, Thanks again :D
i dont even model in max and i dont use the cry engine but damn this tut was fasinating!!! keep it up bro!!!
Very professional mate! :)
Beautiful scenery so far in this video, and thanks for sharing :D
Wow. That was amazingly detailed. If I ever start using CryEngine again I will be sure to reference this. Thanks.
This is the best tutorial I've ever found. But wouldn't it be better to move the edges of the grass mesh towards the image to reduce the number of transparent pixels? For optimization.
These are great. Would love to see you port this to UE4, although we have fuck all methods for shading foliage right now in that engine.
oak oak oak oak and the little bush at the end please :) love the technique
my congrats, you are a maestro. perhaps some layering variation (such as some colors leading to taupes instead of all bright greens) will bring much more realisticity to the whole.
either he spent 10 hours putting this explanation together, or hes godlike
This was so informative, the scene you made looked lovely and I can't wait to do some like it!
Great tutorial! Im wondering if you are going to create an oak tutorial, would you also mind making one for the creation of fir trees? And remember to also teach how to make the trees look like they are blowing in the wind, since i feel that is quite realistic and looks good.
Clear, to the point, high video and audio quality, in depth tutorial and explanation. +1 like & +1 sub.
Excellent video and tutorial. Any chance anyone has a link to his Tree tutorial he mentions in the video, i could not find it.
God this is so much more difficult than it looks :-/
I know right? its fucking hard.
I was actually thinking this wasn't bad at all. But I did just spend 35 hours making an AKM model
This one right? (ua-cam.com/video/9MYGCdf9VHs/v-deo.html)
I am doing it too right now. Sooo many things to learn with 3ds Max and other software. It is literally insane that real games havev massive amounts of assets and other stuff :D
so much easier now today
@@ronaldwoofer5024 It never gets easier, it gets faster or more methods to appear. But then will use any extra time to polish it so it never gets faster too.
Thank you SOOOOO much for the tutorial!
Please make another one of these!
Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much!
will you make a tutorial on how to create such beatiful landscapes?
Fantastic! Was making the shrubbery much different than the grass, or is the geometry closer to the leaf clumps of a tree?
Nice one!
Awesome tutorial, thanks for sharing! You mention a tree tutorial at the end of the video. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find it in your channel. Could you provide a link, please?
Wow this was a rally nice simple tutorial! Great job! Thanks!
Brilliant tutorial - thank you very much.
Is there any way of baking geometry+textures onto a nearby plane in Maya as well?
Very nice and helpful, what do you teach?
Looking forward to see the tree video! :)
thanks for this master tut,,i have some problem with render to texture part,my render is complete green,,do have som tut about that part?
Now, 7 years later I’m watching this video and trying to do this in blender 😵💫
Really great tutorial. Definitely going to use some of these techniques. Where is the oak tree tutorial available? Or is that still coming?
Thanks for the video, you guys should upload more often. I really enjoy seeing your techniques.
You're welcome, things have been really busy with our classes but I will try and upload more often.
Futurepoly Awesome. This channel is one of, if not the best, channel on YT for cryengine stuff.
Fantastic. Thanks for making this available.
I didn't know it was this easy wow NICE!
Hello, I am from Czech republic and your tutorials are very good! Will you do some tutorials for beginners? It will be very big help for me and I think, that no only for me. Thanks :)
This tutorial is great. I've just got one problem, when I render the textures out I get a thick black line around the diffuse texture. Is there something in my render settings I need to change?
Figured it out. My mapping coordinates were using automatic unwrap instead of an existing channel
Can you make a tutorial showing how to animate these blades of grass? Or must the blades of grass be geometry for that to be possible?
Hi, any chance you could do a tutorial on how you made that grass material on the ground? It looks amazing!
Beautiful!
You mister are incredible.
when you jumped to the 3 grass blades you added more polys ?
great video. very straight forward. :) bravo. glad I found you.
Great video, well explained, Kudos!!
You make it sound easy
I'm not sure if you covered this in the video or not, but I'm wondering how I can make vegetation fit to the heightmap terrain in Cryengine 5.

I want to make that majestic oak! :)
How are there possibly any down votes to this video? Amazing work!
MIND BLOWN!
This tutorial is soo good, thanks a lot!
Where can I find this tree tutorial you were talking about? Couldn't find it on your channel..
GREAT VIDEO!
thanks, this was really easy to follow and helpful.
Can I purchase the video tutorial for the tree? Given the quality you put into the grass tutorial I can only imagine the tree being the same. :)
You are amazing dude. You make it look so easy!! Subscribed
