Kit Feedback

The Art Deco kit is showing its age. The arches aren't very archie and the roofs use the same textures as the walls. The wall texture def repeats in a noticeable way.

can I get a refund for this asset pack as it is not game ready like I thought don't know how you can sell unreal files and have no correct collision the unreal marketplace would never approve this literally any assset pack u buy on the unreal marketplace has correct collision setup cuz that's how it's supposed to be. those that don't want it can just disable it. there is no excuse for this. I have no use for this asset pack if you wont' setup proper collision and I do not have the means to do so myself and neither did I expect to have to do it especially at such a premium price point.

I don't think you can really call the kits (which are exceptional btw, not detracting from that at all) game ready, until they have proper interiors. Changing the meshes to double sided only has limited use, especially in kits like Elysium.

Hi It seems that importing kits into C4d 2024 inverts the bump maps ie. i need to manually set each bump value to -1 from 1 in order for them to look ok Is it possible to automate this properly?

All materials in the c4d + Redshift file are node based materials, not redshift materials. It looks like cinema4d native node editor materials (PBR).

The assets look amazing but at a very high rendering cost. I suggest either levels-of-detail be included in the kits or new kits where meshes are much lower poly and the details are baked into very high resolution textures. The texture size should be as big as possible because we can always reduce them. To be clear: I am not requesting a "low poly style". The assets should still be as realistic as possible just with lower overhead.

In the Minerva and Neo City kits, when loaded in Blender (and likely other packages) there are a lot of image textures used where the image is entirely a single value. Most often, this is metallic textures that are all black for non-metalic materials, but there are also lots of single color roughness, normal, and base color images. It least in Blender, these 2K and 4K images still take up a lot of VRAM. I found that by removing the texture and replacing it with a single value I could reduce the VRAM of scenes without any visual change. This is for example by replacing an 4K image texture that is all black with the value of 0. I'd look into if future kits or kit versions could use single pixel images for textures that are all one value, or just set the value directly on the Blender material. In the example image, the all black metal texture can be replaced with the value zero. Then when the texture is removed and the file clean up command is run (to remove the iamge from memory), the VRAM of the scene is reduced.

We, like quite a few others here, use Lightwave. Can we expect Lightwave versions in Cargo, please?

Hi, Im a UEFN creator and really like everything you are doing. Unfortunately we have a very limited project size limit in UEFN (400mb). If your prefab buildings from the kits were available in a more modular format we could use instanced mesh actors to really save on memory and improve performance. Most of the buildings ive tried are one or two pieces and cant benefit from instancing.

I just wanted to ask since you guys offer Unreal Engine. whether you could do this so that you can make the windows in a group and the individual doors. so that you can either remove them or just move them. as currently is always as a whole and you can't open the doors and you can't adjust the windows. So unfortunately (I think speaks for many) very unusable in Unreal, this would be good for all assets and shouldn't be difficult to enable when creating. then you could use the assets much better for all purposes.
