This checklist is designed for those who have followed our guide but are encountering difficulties with their project or want to ensure no steps have been missed.

Importing / Merging #

To merge our Project with your custom project, you’ll need to manually Copy these folders:

• Contents/Foliage Physics
• Plugins

Optional Folders:

• Contents/AdvancedLocomotionV4.
• Contents/ Purchased Environment Folder

Note: The advanced locomotion system is primarily here for demonstration purposes. We do not recommend building from our version of it.

Required Project Settings #

• Add “BlockedBulletCollision”
• Enable Virtual Textures
• Enable DBuffer Decals

Painting Foliage #

• Collision Enabled: “Query Only”, or  “Query and physics”
• “Visibility” trace response must be checked
• “BlockedBullet” Collision Response must be “Block” if weapons are to hit it
• “BlockedBullet” Collision Response must be “Ignore” if weapons are to ignore it
• All other Collision Response channels act as a fallback incase foliage physics is disabled.

Foliage System Setup #

• Ensure your project has a foliage map with correct foliage entries
• Drag BP_FoliageInfluencer into your Pawn, Vehicle or Object blueprint
• Toggle “Debug” and adjust radius value of BP_FoliageInfluencer
• Duplicate as needed to cover mesh area tightly for good performance
• Adjust additional settings as needed, for all influencers in your blueprint.

Packaging #
