So, what is PCGor Procedural Content Generation?

Imagine you want to add trees to a level, you have to determine the quantity, the spacingbetween the trees, etc. This is very time-consuming if done manually. But with PCG, you can do it quicklyand accurately.

In the initial sections:

Get familiar with the PCG framework
Learn how to use the nodesin the PCG Graph
Use the Surface Sampler node to create randompoints
Use the Static Mesh Spawner node to create meshesfrom points

In the “Rock” section, you will add rocks to the level. When the level has various objects like rocks and trees, you will define how they interactwith each other. For instance, if a rock and a tree overlap, you will decide whether to removethe rock or the tree.

In the “Mesh Sampler” section, instead of creating points on the landscape surface, you will learn how to create points on any static mesh. For example, I will use the Mesh Sampler node to create mushrooms on tree logs.

Besides the existing/native PCG nodes, you will learn how to create new PCG nodes to suit your needs.

From an initial point, you can create surrounding points. For example, each tree stump can have branches or tree logs around it.

You might like the “Building” section. You will learn how to create a tool for generating buildings. Since a building has many parts, I have broken the section into multiple lectures for each part. You will learn various use cases of the nodes from the previous sections. You can learn and apply a lot after completing this section.
