Ever wanted to create massive and detailed underwater reefs in minutes? Well now you can!
In this pack we’ve included 44 modeled hard and soft coral models designed to mimic real world species while also blending together in a believable manner.
While these are very detailed they are no substitute for the real thing – so we’ve also included 38 scanned corals each with their own color, normal and AO textures.
The pack comes with 3 master materials one for scanned corals that uses their specific UVs and textures and two for the modeled corals which use World Aligned Textures as these models do not have UVs. The two WAT materials differ mainly in the use of Sub-Surface Scattering profiles one uses these to depict soft corals while the other does not for hard or dead looking corals. These materials can be used with the scanned corals as well for even greater array of visuals.
We’ve also included a library of 21 (Color + Normal) coral surface textures that can be used with our materials for an even greater degree of customization!
Finally we’ve included 22 pre-made Blueprint assemblies that combine the included assets in realistic, easy to use reef pieces!
* While optimized note that the models a fairly high-poly (around 6,000 – 50,000 polys) due to the nature of the assets in our aim to preserve as much of the key details as possible we recommend using these with Nanite (it is enabled by default).
* Please note that the screenshots with the label “Scene Not Included” feature underwater VFX from WaterlinePRO which is not part of this product, the screens also feature more complex color filtering and are meant to showcase how the assets can be used with other products.
* Due to the science of how colors generally work underwater it is likely that you may want to further tweak the colors in terms of brightness and saturation depending on your underwater setup – the current setup has these set for use with WaterlinePRO with Volumetric Underwater Fog.
