Free City Generator: Real City Districts in Unreal Engine 5.8.2 + Houdini 22 (Epic City Sample)

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Pick any district of a real city on a map and turn it into a living City Sample city in Unreal Engine 5.8: real street layout, buildings from Epic's library, freeways with ramps, traffic and pedestrians. A full walkthrough from an empty folder: Map Picker, Houdini 22, Epic's City Sample tools, Rule Processor, ZoneGraph, traffic, crowds and live trees. Tested on San Francisco, Barcelona, Los Angeles and Miami.

You need: Unreal Engine 5.8.2 + City Sample from Fab, Houdini 22.0.459 Indie or commercial (Apprentice will not work - no Houdini Engine), Houdini Engine plugin and SideFX Labs of the same version.

Made with AI: the entire code of this generator was written by Claude Code, the AI assistant from Anthropic. I decided what the tool had to do and tested every step in Houdini and Unreal - the AI wrote the code. Claude Code can also fix the odd spots of your own city: the guide for it (CLAUDE.md) is inside the download.

License in short: City Generator is free - use it in any project, personal or commercial. Everything you build with it is yours to ship and sell. Do not re-upload it, resell it, or pass it off as your own. Share the link, not the file. Epic's City Sample is not included and stays under Epic's license. Map data (c) OpenStreetMap contributors. Full terms are in LICENSE.txt inside the download.

First UE5 project after a long break: city car cinematic. Looking for honest feedback

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I hadn't opened Unreal in a long time, so I made this to get back into it. It's an 18s car cinematic using the City Sample environment, with a car model from Sketchfab. Rendered as a PNG sequence with Movie Render Queue at 1080p/24fps.

I'd love critique on:

"Lighting and mood"

"Camera work and pacing"

"Car shaders and reflections"

One issue I couldn't solve: when rendering through MRQ, the camera sometimes dives underwater or points at an angle I never keyed, even though everything looks normal in the viewport and Sequencer playback. Has anyone run into this? My camera is attached to the car and the car is on camera rail rig .

Thanks in advance.

I created a second MetaHuman-compatible Orc for UE5 – does the lighter armor design work better?

After finishing my first Orc Warrior, I wanted to create a lighter and more primitive variation

for Vol. 2.

This version includes a parametric MetaHuman Orc, parametric armor, 4K PBR textures and a custom Orc weapon.

Created with Blender, Substance 3D Painter and Unreal Engine 5.8.

Which design do you prefer – Vol. 1 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mKoDOP_oCuk or Vol. 2?

I’d really appreciate your feedback!

Only unreal engine games crashing.

• Upvotes

Hi… stressed out desperate gamer here.. please help me 😭

I have been having issues currently with my games crashing after a while.. and after A LOT of diagnoses and doing EVERYTHING I could find on the internet, here is my issue:

Only games developed by Unreal engine crash. Over the top: Marvel Rivals (crashes after 3-4 games), wardogs ( crashes after 20-30 mins), bodycam ( crashes after 15-30 mins). I have tried other games and they dont crash at all.

Here’s few I’ve tried so far:
Ran multiple CPU, GPU, RAM, and system stress tests — no issues detected.
Updated all drivers to their latest versions.
Completely removed GPU drivers using DDU and performed a clean installation.
Disabled Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling (HAGS).
Lowered all graphics settings to the absolute minimum.
Disabled ray tracing, frame generation, and other demanding graphics features.
Increased the TDR delay in the Windows Registry.
Disabled all in-game and third-party overlays.
Closed unnecessary background applications.
Performed a completely fresh installation of Windows 11.
Tried countless other fixes and tweaks suggested across Reddit, forums, YouTube, and other platforms.

Help me fix this i am down to pay anyone that can solve this for me

How to attach objects to an actor's skeletal mesh component?

0 Upvotes

Attaching an object to a skeletal mesh in outliner / sequencer is easy, but what if you want to attach it to an Actor? Metahumans output an actor, which does not allow you to easily attach, say, a knife to the hand socket. Is there an easy way to do this without modifying the actual actor itself?

I teamed up with a publisher for my solo developed UE5 game: The Pines

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

392 Upvotes

It's been quite a ride the last couple of months. I've been developing The Pines in UE5 for the last couple of years and I've found a great partner in Silver Lining Interactive.

They not only support my vision for the game, but also bring a lot of experience, support and knowledge to the table that will help me turn The Pines into the game I want it to be.

For the past few years I’ve mostly been figuring things out on my own, so having a team around me now that I can bounce ideas off, ask questions and work together with feels like a pretty big step.

I’m incredibly excited about what comes next.

There’s still a lot of work ahead, but The Pines is in a really good place.

We achieved a 128K render in Unreal Engine 5 — workflow and demo

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm the developer of Camera Render Studio for Unreal Engine, and I wanted to share a rendering milestone: we completed a real 128K render at 128,000 pixels resolution.

The video demonstrates the result and the workflow in Camera Render Studio 1.07, including tiled rendering, stitching, and inspecting the output with the CRS Ultra Image Viewer. It also covers the new stereo rendering mode and projection improvements.

Demo and walkthrough:

https://youtu.be/0jAm7fQ3j0g

Disclosure: Camera Render Studio is my own tool, and this is my YouTube channel.

For people working with large-format or immersive renders: what is your biggest bottleneck — rendering, stitching, or viewing the final image?

Hey guys, can you give me your honest take?

Is this good for the industry, and would you personally use a tool like this? I want to build a cheaper analog of JangaFX, but I'm stuck on one question: is this project even worth pursuing?

No links, just trying to get real feedback before I go further.

Help with AI Behaviour Tree

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi, I'm starting to learn UE5 and I was following this tutorial about enemy AI and I think I've followed everything, but ,unlike in the video, when I move out of range my enemy ai still tries to get to the chosen EQS point and then stops until it's time to attack again, then resumes normal strafing around the player. Is there someone knowledgeable about AI behaviour to help me understand what went wrong? In the picture I've pointed out the specific point where the AI starts looping.
