Hazy Hills - Conifer Forest Environment Low-poly 3D model

cgtrader

Now updated for Standard and HD Unity rendering pipelines! Hazy Hills is a collection of game-ready assets inspired by temperate spruce woods of Central and Northern Europe. Plants and natural features within this pack were created using traditional modeling and texturing techniques, focusing on authentic yet performant game-ready assets. All foliage in Hazy Hills is based on real plant species likely to coexist in real-world biomes that this asset package represents. Species include the Norway Spruce, Broad Buckler Fern, Purple Coltsfoot, Snowbell, European Wood Sorrel, Shield-leaved Saxifrage, and multiple European grasses. No photosourcing or photogrammetry was used in creating Hazy Hills; instead, industry-standard tools like Allegorithmic Substance suite were employed to maintain a consistent art style that translates well to real-time applications, particularly those where maintaining art style using purely photoscanned assets may not be practical. The package includes model files in the FBX format, featuring nested hierarchies of sub-objects with pivot points located at branch origins. Vertex color green is painted on leaf cards, allowing shaders to take advantage of this information and provide models with bending and wind flutter effects. Textures are supplied in the TIFF format, including all necessary PBR maps like Basecolor/Albedo, Smoothness, Normal, Thickness, Ambient Occlusion, and Height. Specularity and Metalness are not provided since no material in the art package explicitly uses them; standard physically accurate values for non-metals should be used. Hazy Hills also contains fully equipped Unity packages for Unity Standard Rendering Pipeline (2017.4.3LTS+) and HD Rendering pipeline (2018.3.0+, including 2019.1.0 and above). Unity LWRP/URP builds are not officially supported; the included foliage shaders will not function in these rendering pipelines, or Unity target builds below the specified versions. Your own shaders would be necessary to fully utilize this package in these rendering pipelines.
