Unreal 5 Materials – Part 1 Environments

本课程的第 1 部分全面概述了虚幻 5 中的材质编辑器——从材质类型和混合模式到各个数学节点和输入数据，不仅侧重于如何做事，还侧重于为什么做事以及查看底层逻辑以及引擎正在做的事情背后的数学。 涵盖如何构建您自己的材质函数并将其构建到您的工作流程中以生成强大而灵活的材质。我们还深入研究了 UV – 它们在引擎中的工作方式以及我们如何利用这些知识并产生诸如失真、动画和视差遮挡映射等效果。然后，课程的第 2 部分采用这些知识并将其应用于环境材料，包括：主材料以及如何构建它们的一些最佳实践.

Your complete course for learning Materials in Unreal Engine 5

What you’ll learn
Have a holistic understanding of the Material Editor in Unreal 5
Learn best practices and workflows for using Functions and producing optimal Materials
Explore how to use Data from elsewhere in the Engine to build dynamic materials
Apply all the base knowledge to Environmental examples, such as Landscapes and Vertex Painting

Requirements
Some basic understanding of 3D Modelling and the Unreal Engine

Description
Part 1 of this course covers a holistic overview of the Material Editor in Unreal 5 – from Material Types and Blend Modes to individual Math Nodes and Input Data, focusing on not just the How to do things but also the Why and looking at the underlying logic and math behind what the engine is doing.  Covering how to build up your own Material Functions and build that into your workflow to produce powerful and flexible Materials. We also take a deep dive into UV’s – how they work in the engine and how we can take that knowledge and produce effects such as Distortion, Animation, and Parallax Occlusion Mapping. Part 2 of the course then takes this knowledge and applies it to Environmental Materials, covering: Master Materials and some best practices in how to build them, Decals and their various blend modes – as well as more complex effects such as Angle Based Masking and Custom Decal responses, Vertex Painting to blend between material types, various approaches to make Landscape Materials and using RVTs to blend objects into them, the new Layered Materials system how to use Input Data to automate variation in materials and create angle based effects such as Snow.
