MeshBlend is finally here! 🥳 So proud to finally release what I've been working on for 16 months! MeshBlend brings next generation blending to Unreal. Easy to use, fast and great quality! Available on Fab for #UE5 now! #gamedev #unrealengine

Lots of stuff work fine on a flat plane. A sphere is the true test! 😆 I feel POM gets a bad rep since the default UE5 version breaks down if you combine it with tri-planar mapping or other techniques. Not FPOM though 👀 #gamedev #techart

Here is Nanite Displacement fading over to FPOM in the distance. 🧙‍♂️

Really excited to finally release FPOM! 🥳 It's a Parallax Occlusion Mapping shader I made with the goal of having an alternative for Nanite Displacement that looks good for a fraction of the cost. Works with Landscape, Mesh Terrain, Meshes, Decals etc. fab.com/listings/f56... #gamedev

Always been annoyed that nanite displacement is relative to the scale of the mesh, so I fixed it! This engine change allows me to have different scales on the meshes without any issues. The meshes are then blended with MeshBlend to make it look like one surface. #gamedev

MeshBlend & World Aligned Materials is too good! 🤩 Testing a workflow where I only have one material instance per surface type. That then goes on any mesh. Blending the seams between the meshes to create a seamless surface. Amazing to just play around with the variations! #gamedev #unrealengine

MeshBlend is now available for Unreal Engine 5.8! If it's a mesh, we can blend it. #gamedev

Ever noticed how Subnautica 2 has almost no seams? In the sand, on the rocks, in the cave walls. None! Check it out next time you are swimming around! 👀 Being able to say I had something to do with this game has been such an honor!

@fransbouma.com Have you by any chance tested your photo mode tools against Subnautica 2 yet?

MeshBlend 3.0 is out! 🥳 This has been an ongoing project for a while but it is finally ready! The update brings improved blend quality AND improved performance! meshblend.lervik.com

Here's the April update to the technique. The main new addition is the use of a procedural flow map to inform brush stroke length and direction.

The depths are calling… 🐟 The Subnautica 2 Early Access cinematic trailer is out now! Make sure you watch all the way to the end for a surprise 🫣 🎞️: https://youtu.be/8EZhCzFaQuw

I like both of these games! Maybe you will as well!

Hi #RealTimeVFX #GameDev ! We're looking for a Senior VFX Artist to join the team at Unknown Worlds on Subnautica 2! Gameplay Teaser: youtu.be/oK5Nr1VtJ9Q Application: job-boards.greenhouse.io/unknownworld...

Most of the MeshBlend showcases I make are to highlight the blending. But in real-world use it's often used more as a "seam remover". Here are some amazing in-game screenshots of Beautiful Light using MeshBlend to make the world feel more cohesive! 🤩 #gamedev

Blending meshes always feels like magic! Hearing what environment artists think of MeshBlend is the best part though! ✨ PS: MeshBlend is currently off on Fab this week - meshblend.lervik.com #ue5 #gamedev

I've just released the newest update to my Unreal Engine level editor called Scythe. Here's what's new... 🧵

While I'm most known now for my Unreal Engine chops, I'm also fairly seasoned in traditional Feature VFX, so here is my long overdue Feature VFX Reel Update! As stated before, I'm avaliable from mid Dec! #VFX #VisualEffects

Can't believe it's almost 3 months since launch! Around this time last year, the pieces was finally starting to come together. What a journey it's been! Pst: MeshBlend and MeshPack just dropped on the Fab October Flash Sale! ✨👀 www.fab.com/sellers/Tore...

MeshBlend 2.0 is out! 🥳 It now supports UE5 new Fast Geometry Streaming and the plugin is even easier to setup and use than before. Amazing to hear from all the teams using MeshBlend in their upcoming titles! Really enjoyed Unreal Fest Stockholm! For more info meshblend.lervik.com #ue5 #gamedev

MeshBlend 1.5 on Fab - Better noise, better controls, better setup and better blending! Excited to bring this update just in time for #UnrealFestStockholm!

How many rocks? MeshBlend started out as a way to make terrain look nice in games. It has grown a bit since it's inception 17 months ago! www.fab.com/listings/1f4... #gamedev @unrealengine.bsky.social

Performance is important and a big part of #gamdev. So how does MeshBlend fair in real projects? Wanted to show a clip from the Dark Ruins Megascans project with blending on everything! ~0.07 ms on Low and ~0.16 ms on the high quality meshblend-preset on my Gaming PC More here meshblend.lervik.com

Feels different when there are no seams! 😄 Just playing with MeshBlend today. #ue5 #gamedev

Hey gang - we have an opening for a Senior Shader TD at That's No Moon. We're looking for a tech artist that's proficient in creating shaders in Unreal, & who'd like to work with the environment team to help us make a kick-ass lookin game: job-boards.greenhouse.io/thatsnomoone...

How many rocks do you see? Too much fun just doing pointless stuff like this on a Friday evening! 😄 MeshBlend for #ue5 #gamedev
