This is true of every tech platform ever and won't be any more different with Unreal Engine 5 than it has been with UE4, 3, or anything else. Everything improves with time as the engineers learn the details and optimize their work. Nanite is the new tech that allows incredibly detailed high poly models, a sort of [ LOD system ] on steroids.

This chapter is all about how I solved it (so far) to be able to place all kinds of assets like 3D-meshes or self-growing fractal seeds on the terrain. Let’s assume we do it for each vertex on a mesh with let’s say 10’000 vertices.   Asset placement - depending on mesh height vertices. Before we start.

Platform-specific glitches, animation inconsistencies, and performance instability often surface only through comprehensive device and network testing. It is an operational asset that protects both player experience and studio reputation.
