The Forest

Build forest environment

Use trees to build a forest, shrubs to fill in the views, boulders to create blockades, rocks to create interesting areas, paint with landscape layers to automatically fill the ground with procedurally distributed ground cover, including ferns, dead branches, roots, clover, down to small rocks and pebbles.

Use the unified wind and wetness shader to define the wind and wetness amount on a global scale, without having to modify every asset or material, simply by inputting a value between 0-1. You can use 0 to simulate calm winds and dry environment or go up to 1 to simulate stormy winds and wet environment. You can even decide the wind direction without having to do anything complex. Combined with particles and other effects, the end result is truly spectacular.
