Stylized Water - Unreal Engine Free Download

A system for creating stylized bodies of water with displaced waves, underwater effects, ripples that react to the player, and optimized for maximum performance. Multiple ready-to-go styles are included to get you up and running and showcase just how flexible the system is!

FAQ & LIMITATIONS

Can I swim in the water?

I do not have anything specific for swimming as that would be pretty specific for your project. Keep in mind the water displacement is happening on the shader World Position Offset, so things will get complicated if the waves are higher.

Is their buoyancy?

I did not currently implement buoyancy. It is on my list of things I would like to add in a future update if possible. The reasons are the same as above.

Does the post processing work on rivers?

The rivers do not have post processing or particle ripples. They are a bit more complicated as a spline mesh. I have ideas on how I might be able to add this in the future, but have not yet tested.

Does the water system utilize Lumen or Nanite?

It is not using Lumen or Nanite. The meshes are using instanced static meshes which you can determine your tiling and resolution, and the lighting was all tested without Lumen, although I imagine things would work for Lumen.

Is the pack replicated for multiplayer?

I have not set up anything specific for multiplayer, but the blueprint code is fairly minimal and organized and should be easy to adapt to your needs.

Is the performance good? Can I improve the performance?

There are many ways to improve performance depending on how many features your project needs. You can disable underwater post processing if you don’t need to go beneath the water. You can lower the resolution of the water displacement, or reduce the amount of tiles. Check the Documentation for more info!
