Description
This pack contains 22 unique game-ready grass foliage meshes made for use in Unreal 5 with Nanite and Lumen, as well as a matching landscape material. The assets consist of a green top layer of standing grass and an underlayer of dead grass, based on the species of grass that this pack was modeled after:
St. Augustine Grass (Stenotaphrum secundatum)
The textures were created using real-world photographs of the grass and the meshes were hand-modeled based on real-world reference.
All of the meshes were made from the ground up to be used with Nanite: no texture transparency is used, meaning the grass meshes are fully modeled and offer both high-fidelity and high-performance when using Nanite. No photogrammetry was used in their creation, allowing the textures to be intentionally laid-out and optimized at 2k resolution. All of the grass meshes use a single instanced material, further increasing performance without sacrificing visual quality. The material includes a simple wind, using vertex color and distance-based WPO to add believable movement to the grass without sacrificing performance.
