LVL Class Projects

Week 1 – Medieval Town Project:

I modeled modular building kit pieces directly in Unreal Engine using UE5 Modeling Tools. I then used MegaAssemblies and Blueprints to assemble a medieval town level, learning how to efficiently build large environments using reusable components.

- Tools Used: UE5 Modeling Tools, MegaAssemblies, Blueprints

Credits: Megascans were used for props, foliage, materials, and decals.

Week 2 – Exterior Lighting Project:

This week focused on lighting and composition. I used the Atmospheric Sun and Sky system in UE5 to light the City of Brass level and explored how to achieve different moods for both morning and night scenes.

- Tools Used: UE5 Lighting Tools, Atmospheric Sun and Sky

Credits: Level used is Stylized Egypt by Aleksandr Ivanov.

Week 3 – Procedural Landscape Project:

I created a landscape using UE5’s procedural tools, experimenting with the Water System and Foliage Tool. I also created a layered landscape material and placed natural elements throughout the scene.

-Tools Used: UE5 Procedural Landscape Tools, Water System, Foliage Tool, Material Editor

Credits: Megascans were used for props, foliage, materials, and decals.

Week 4 – Niagara Fire Particles Project:

I learned the basics of Niagara and used it to create a custom fire particle system from scratch in UE5. This included emitters for smoke, fire, and embers.

- Tools Used: UE5 Niagara System

Credits: Megascans were used for props, foliage, materials, and decals.
