Exporting the exact textures from world machine to UE4

General Discussion

Hi there,

There are a couple routes here, depending on what you want. But essentially, you need to create a material in UE4 and apply it to your landscape.

  1. Export a high res terrain texture from World Machine and apply that material to your terrain.
  2. Export weightmaps and use to choose between landscape materials.

Creating a landscape material for UE4 is an entire conversation to itself, mostly unrelated to World Machine. But essentially for #1 you can create a texturemap-based material just like you’d create for any other object. For #2, you’ll need to use the landscape material system. Here’s a workflow guide for doing so:
