On this episode of Inside Unreal, our Technical Artist and UK Evangelist Arran Langmead will explore the procedural mesh component and how it can be used to build art tools in the engine. He'll demonstrate an example of this with a stylized tree generator that uses a mixture of splines and random mesh generation to create foliage elements. These elements can be snapped onto one another to create fully animated trees and foliage assets.
