This week, I spent time searching for UE5 assets suitable for the project style on the website. The first scene I envisioned was a car driving on a rural road, heading towards the protagonist’s new school. Since the new school was closed, I wanted the rural environment to be filled with natural scenery, and there to be no other vehicles or roads.
I found a set of tundra terrain assets, but it was a bit bare, so I looked for another set of plant assets and used the Foliage Mode to arrange their distribution.
I hope the overall scene is rather dark. I adjusted the Sky Light and Directional Light, but it was too dark. The colors of the terrain became indistinguishable and blurry. I adjusted the parameters of the Fog to create an atmospheric perspective and add a mysterious atmosphere.
The final result is quite impressive.
