Was really looking forward to see the snow tracks effect. Sadly it's not even shown in the asset store video and I would like to see how it works, before buying it.
Yes, the new version is called The Visual Engine which does have many awesome features. The Terrain Shaders Module needs the vegetation engine to work. if you have The Vegetation engine and you want to buy the Terrain Shaders Module right now, you can contact to developer to give you the 12.0 version. but if you want to use Terrain Shaders Module version 20.0 you have to get The Visual Engine. I hope it clears up. Thanks!
Actually, I bought TVE asset last year and there was a situation where I was in contact with the developer and decided to Review the Assets. It was very useful for me in my projects. Everything you see in the video is a feature of the asset, even though I could not cover all of them.
@@GameDevBoxOk, I think this is not a review , its a marketing video showing of the features included. Which is fine, but lets not call it a review :) Review = "a formal assessment of something with the intention of instituting change if necessary."
@@erikm9768 Call it whatever you want. Showcasing the features of assets and what they are capable of doing is precisely the purpose of the review. Apologies for not showing you what it can't do.
@@GameDevBox Okay. But isnt the dev already doing that? I'm interested in how well it works in practise, and if its worth spending $20 $40 or $80 on. Kind of like a game or movie review.
@@erikm9768 showing how it works in practice is not something that can be shown in 10 minutes and also it's different for each project and person. it may work well for me but for your case or situation, it won't. if you want to purchase the best way is to ask the developer (discord), if can it offer what you need. For example, I have the "GPU instancer" package myself, and it is interesting that in one of my projects, even its performance was the opposite of what I wanted. I hope it helped, sorry that I couldn't show more. the terrain shader is good when you have the vegetation engine! It gives you the full functionality of TVE, but if you want only Terrain shader you can check out the MicroSplat.

Snow tracks are achievable with TVE elements, and shouldn't be the problem. just add a Fade element over the Snow effect.
Is "The Vegetation Engine" change to "The Visual Engine" now? If I just want to use Terrain Shaders Module, do I have to buy The Visual Engine?
