MAWI United, an Unreal Engine-focused company that develops and sells AAA environment asset packs, has recently unveiled its latest asset pack—an insanely detailed, all-custom photogrammetry scans, and 100% procedurally generated rainforest. This highly anticipated asset pack boasts multiple billions of Nanite triangles and stunning 8K textures on every element, ensuring an unparalleled level of realism. With over 140 different tree and plant assets, along with a plethora of additional features, MAWI United aims to create the most realistic and visually stunning real-time tropical forest ever seen in the gaming industry.

One of the standout features of this asset pack is its powerful procedural generation capabilities. Users can effortlessly create an incredibly detailed forest with thousands of trees through a few simple clicks, thanks to the high-performance interactive foliage and advanced wind system. Whether it's generating an entire forest or painting specific areas, this asset pack provides the tools needed to bring virtual rainforests to life.

Furthermore, MAWI has implemented advanced materials and functions within this asset pack. The ground material offers four different surface types—forest, moss, stones, and dirt—automatically generating small ground cover and foliage. Users can take advantage of features like procedural puddles, wetness functions, and a complete snow system, allowing for a dynamic and immersive forest environment.

Users can easily tweak materials to suit their project's requirements, including general master materials, color correction, randomization, detail textures, and feature switches. Furthermore, the company ensures that optimizations made on a global level are automatically reflected across different products, streamlining the development process.

With its unrivaled attention to detail and shared functionalities, MAWI United continues to solidify its position as a leading provider of AAA environment asset packs for Unreal Engine users.
