Important/Additional Notes:
+++ The biomes map requires the water plugin +++
+++ Landscape Nanite is deactivated by default. To activate, add these two lines in the Render section of your DefaultEngine file in the Config folder
r.Nanite.AllowTessellation=1
r.Nanite.Tessellation=1
This is experimental (5.4) and it comes with a considerable FPS penalty.
From there, select the Landscape actor, activate Nanite and Build. Tessellation is already activated in the landscape auto-material. You can control tessellation individually per layer using the MI_Landscape instance. +++
+++ The fixed virtual texture pools are set to 256mb (index 0) and 128 mb (index 1). Adjust this to your liking and according to your system specs. You can find the configuration in the project settings under Engine - Virtual Texture Pool +++
+++ You can adjust the World Position Offset disable distance (the distance from the camera where the wind animation is disabled) for each Foliage_Type according to your system specs. By default, these are set to a quite short distance to save on FPS. +++
