Whoa, I ran into @phyronnaz.bsky.social in Orlando! He made the Voxel Plugin for Unreal!
So many cool people to run into at Unreal Fest. And it's only two weeks now until the next one in Stockholm 😯

I got tired of Unreal's debug drawing performance, so I made my own system today.

Drawing +50M points just works now :)

If you want to use it: github.com/VoxelPlugin/...

This is really cool :)

Here's an update on my small-voxel renderer, inspired by the look of games like Doom and Quake. The work I shared last year focused on handling simpler environment geometry. Since then, I've greatly expanded the scope of what I can depict in this art style. More info in thread.

My bad, misread your post - I thought you were asking how the plugin worked 😅

We don’t have dedicated support for data tables but it could be added! Unsure what it’d do right now.

It works by fetching the objects from the VCS history and diffing them :)

The new Nanite Foliage Voxel representation is an absolute game changer for distant environments, density preservation is pretty much perfect.

Cinematic Chips is now live on FAB, 155 High Poly Nanite Chips & Fries assets for Unreal Engine that look mighty fine (salt not included).
Best results use Path Tracing with Substrate enabled for some great SSS, but they also work in raster.

My plugin for #UnrealEngine is almost done! It lets you blend any mesh. Not just landscape, not PDO.

This magic lets you blend anything!🤯

Yeah reusing an existing shading model might be the only thing possible here

I wanted to, but the deadline was already passed! Maybe next year :)

And yeah the unreal rendering is extensible, but it’s not super easy haha
