In this lesson, you'll learn the basics of Unreal and begin crafting your environment idea. You'll find references, build a library of assets, and assemble those assets together into one convenient staging area. By the end of this lesson, you'll have all the tools you need to start building your own environment.

you can find instructions on Megascans Bridge. You should close Ureal Engine for it and choose the path for this plugin when you installing it (c:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.25\Engine\Plugins\)

Hi guys! So, the assets I have downloaded from Megascans seem kinda small compared to the Brushify Forest assets. Is there a setting I'm missing or should I just scale them in the asset zoo?
Joe Garth 2 years ago instructor
Hey, are you importing them via Quixel Bridge? Be sure to use the UE4 preset for that. That way the scale should be correct.
You can always go into the Static Mesh (double click it in content browser) and go to the details panel on the right. Find the Lod0 section and look for Build Settings. Under Build scale you can change the value to scale up and down the asset. Hit Apply and save.
Cheers,
Joe

Hey, does someone know how to turn on the details panel in UE4? It would really help me. Thanks!

Joe- I noticed (even when uncompressed) the new file I downloaded was much smaller than the original 9+GB file from last week. Is that as it should be or am I supposed to save some files from the original download and add to the latest download?
Joe Garth 2 years ago instructor
@Andras - It's worth grabbing the latest because you'll have access to the other levels. Some were missing as the files got corrupted.
@Saf - That is fixed in the new update. Please grab the latest.

Thanks Joe, will wait and redownload the 9GB pack again

Thanks Joe. Enjoyed the course. Its been mentioned elsewhere, but the FirstPerson BP is corrupted when opening the files in UE4.25 (the same may happen in other versions). It seems character can no longer be moved on-screen as the keyboard bindings are no longer present in the project. Not a biggie, but thought I would mention it in case there was a quick workaround as an alternative to rebuilding it manually.

Hey Joe, I downloaded the Project files yesterday, should I redownload the files? For me personally, I had issues with spawning the fps character (the character was stuck, couldn't move) other than that no problems. Although I just had a quick run. Cheers

Great lesson, exactly what I was looking for!
A few bugs to report. Http Error 502 Occurred keeps popping up. Sometimes a "This video can not be played" Error code: 203000. reload page and the video will then work.

Before I'll download it again, may I ask you guys if the missing data had been fixed? Thanks

I will make a post on this page once the files are up.

I'm very new to UE4 and purchased this course yesterday. The download worked without any issue and I was able to open up the LS project and navigate through a couple of maps that Joe had walked through. I thought my computer was locked up at the 95% mark, but it took about 12-15 mins to finally load (Is that normal and how can you improve this?). Looking forward to learning! Thank you.

UE4 on the first load seems to take a bit of time.... and then after that it seems to open normally...let er buck.

I've downloaded the 9.2gb "fixed" asset pack just announced in my LS notification.. Opening the ue proejct gives my machine a blue screen of death and needs restart....
Super keen to get on with the course. Set aside time this w/e to learn, but stuck here... Anyone have a fix??
Just to note, I've been successfully using editor 4.25, 4.24, 4.23 on other projects and it's fine, just opening the supplied one kills my machine... Also, Joe you might want to update the video since it says " load you assets from the market place" when these are the downloaded LS_LearnSquared unreal project files, not a brushify pack purchased from Marketplace. Please let us know if there is another work around!
Joe Garth 2 years ago instructor
Hello, that version is not the fixed version. That's on the way very soon.
Cheers,
Joe
