The package contains 24 unique rocks that can be easily customized and adapted to any type of environment.

Each unique rock has 3 types of material instances, with moss, sand and snow. All these types use the same base textures, but have different color parameters and are blended with different top layer textures depending on the environment. In total, the package contains 72 rock meshes (24 with moss/24 with sand/24 with snow)

In addition, the package contains a very useful blueprint for global parameters called "AG Global Settings". 

Using the AG Global Settings blueprint you can modify the global parameters of Wind, Tint Color, SSS and Top Layer without changing the base material instance. This allows you to have different wind settings and different values of Top Layer (moss/sand/snow) for each scene. Also, you can adjust the parameters locally from the material.

UE5: Out of the box, the Landscape Tessellation is disabled. The package contains helper files if you want to add VHM for your landscape (Virtual HeightField Mesh - alternative for tessellation in UE5). For more information please follow the steps from the online documentation.

UE4: Out of the box, the Landscape Tessellation is enabled.

We plan to launch more Nature assets in the future. We created the "NaturePack_Common" folder to keep all common files in one place. This will allow us to reuse blueprints, master materials and functions for all future “Nature Pack” packages.

In the "NaturePack_Rocks" folder, you can find the files that are only used in this pack.

The package doesn't work with the UE5 Early Access version. Please update the engine to version 502 or newer.
