The Amarantos Ritual - Asset Breakdown

"The Amarantos Ritual" is my newest UE5 environment. This album looks at the callout sheets and asset breakdown of my work for it.

These are all of the props and pieces that I created in order to build up the ruined interior space of "The Amarantos Ritual".
⠀⠀
The work seen here was meant to be a practice in getting used to Nanite. It was the first time I worked in UE5 and my main interest was how much I can push geometry detail and what was a good trade off between geometry file size, texture file size and unique textures vs reused tiling libraries. I learned some valuable things through the project.

The alien character is created by I.L.E.P STUDIOS.

The root uses a mix of Megascan surfaces.

I had an idea and initial description for the crown. I spoke to my friend Oliver Harbour and he painted the concepts above for me. I used that in order to create the prop.

You can find lots of blogs that I wrote. They document the making of this environment and the props above. https://petedimitrovart.com/categories/amarantos-ritual/

I made my spiral in Niagara. Through the dev of the scene a new update in UE5 released. It included Niagara Cache and the above video showcases the use of that. It allowed me to bake down the Niagara movement and scrub a timeline of it.

The initial inspiration for my project was the orb in the middle that I created in Houdini. I made that as a practice in vertex animated textures (VAT). Later on I replaced it for the crystal as I believed I needed some more substance and detail.
