Gas Station

Hello !

I'm Thomas Bachelier, student at ESMA Toulouse. This is my first 3D Environment game ready scene I made on Unreal Engine. Don't hesitate to comment and give me feedback about my work and also what you think about it.

This scene was created on Unreal Engine 5.2.

I used vehicles from the Unreal marketplace, Megascans assets, atlases and materials, while making modifications to enhance them. For the process, I created tillable textures like concrete, wood and tile, then I have done a modular kit in Blender.

I proceed by iteration, realized the interior of my gas station, first, then I produced the exterior. Lastly, I took care of vegetation and lighting.

Pre-production

The idea was to create a "secondary mission" where the player needs to find resources in the gas station. But this one is occupied by enemies. So we made an MDA Framework to understand TLOU design.

Designing a moodboard for the project was our initial step to better guide its direction. My main objectives with this scene, were to learn how to use RGB mask and speedtree software.

Blockout

I decided to create a modular kit to iterate easily with Lévi and find the good design of this scene. 

Production

Assets

I started using speedtree software to create my own vegetation. The texture of grass, fern and tree provide megascan library. I also began to create my assets to bring credibility and life to my environment.

Lighting

I spent a lot of time on lighting to understand Lumen on Unreal Engine.  So I tried different mood during the production. 

Final

Thank you for reading to the end. It was a big project for me, and I'm glad about everything I learnt during this project.
