    Check out some of the screenshots of foliage with Unreal Engine 4.7, beautiful rendering of leaves and foliage, HDR texture support, in-editor animation editing, along with hundreds of optimizations ...

    It really does. But thats not a bad thing. Unreal Games have never had good foliage.

    As much as I love to play games, im equally a graphics whore.

    Exactly. Modded. Not stock, stock Skyrim foliage is awful.

    Finally! :rock:


    That 2nd screnshot looks very detailed with proper leafs on each branch, dunno why you all bitching :D.. Cryengine or FC4 dunia or frostbyte has worse with 2d textures type.. e.g.


    Even enhanced version looks kinda bad

    Looks like most of them will start this year -- although 4.7 just shipped so the vast majority this year won't have this unless they update their builds.

    yea looks nice to me, i dont think they are bitching just saying they seen equal or similar.

    now you have put the tree's to compare, it looks loads better IMO that is.

    I think we have gotten to the point in games that foliage already looks really good, especially in motion. I would like to see more examples of character models and scaling in UE4. Everything we see now is at peak quality. Give us some examples of scenes at different quality levels and the hardware it would take render them at a playable clip.

    4.7? we're already on 4.7? and barely any games have even released on 4 in general?

    WHAT? by the time 4.x games actually start coming out in masses, we'll be on 4.9999923311294321 just so we don't hit 5......

    Nah I think they are going straight into 5 and dropping the whole major revision thing. They basically reorganized the entire engine to be highly modular for that reason. I actually really like it.

    They could do 4.10 after 4.9. I have seen lots of software products do version numbers like that.

    wut, no. There's nothing you can do to make the foliage look good, haha.

    You mean they'll use it for the vertical slice of the next Elder Scrolls game. It'll later show up in the PC port, which will come out 9 months after the console version and only on nVidia hardware.

    to some degree, i agree, however the whole modular design COULD potentially make games take longer to develop, if say a game sees a new feature they want in a new revision of the engine and they have to re-work what they were doing. Not saying that would be bad necessarily, but people already are upset if a game takes to long to come out, but hey, they are upset if it comes out at all, either it's buggy or it takes too long....

    I do have to bring up though, isn't this essentially (though slower) was valve did with the source engine? people still aren't happy about that (...i am, but, i'm not picky)

    Until I see some games released that actually use this engine, I'm not gonna get all excited about it. This thing is really taking time to get moving. No where near as quickly as the UE3.0 engine was.
