This update expands how materials can be painted and blended across your assets, giving you more control over surface transitions, depth and shadow direction without rebuilding your existing workflow. What’s covered: POM Height Blend support for Unreal Engine 5.5–5.8 Why Unreal Engine 5.3–5.4 cannot support this specific feature due to an internal engine limitation A new Material Function dedicated to layer-painting logic Three painting layers with six different blending combinations A new Light Vector for Parallax Fake Shadows How the Light Vector can take over from the directional light, allowing you to art-direct the direction of your POM shadows Additional bug fixes, workflow refinements and performance improvements Surface Forge is a layer-painting and environment-surfacing system for Unreal Engine 5, rebuilt around cinematic-quality environment creation and production-ready workflows. The goal of 1.1.5 is simple: more ways to blend materials, greater control over surface depth and shadows, and a smoother workflow when creating high-detail Unreal Engine environments. 💢You want to Support the Channel and get AWESOME Assets?
