Errant Landscape

📄️ Introduction

Errant Landscape radically improves the process of creating large landscapes in Unreal Engine.

📄️ Custom Stamp Brush Textures

You can use any texture imported into Unreal as a stamp for creating landscapes.

Errant Landscape comes with a library of stamp brushes that you can freely use in your projects. These brushes include various splatmaps/metadata textures that can be used to paint weightmaps and biomes. We plan to regularly extend this library with new brushes in order to minimize the time it takes to create common environments.
