Collisions
Collisions
Although it probably won't make much of a difference, I want to delete collisions on meshes you can't reach like the ceiling. I also noticed meshes that should have collisions but don't.
God Rays
God Rays
The god rays I borrowed from another scene were hardly visible at first. I didn't have any knowledge about how to make it clearer so I just duplicated it a few times. I think because of that, that the shader complexity is quite bad here. I want to delete the duplicated god rays and make sure it's visible in one object. This will also affect the quad-overdraw, which is also going haywire.
LOD's: Waterfall Particles and trees
LOD's: Waterfall Particles and trees
The waterfall has quite expensive particle emitters. I plan to have them only load when you're near them. I think that falls under LOD's. I also plan to look at LOD's for the trees.
Folder Structure
Folder Structure
For folder structure I have only done what was most convenient for me back then. Since UE4 has it's own folder structure, it would be nice to follow that. Not only the structure, but also the naming.
I have a lot of content in the content browser that I don't use. That also deserves a good cleanup.
General Scene Cleanup
General Scene Cleanup
There are still experiments and blockout pieces in the scene, that don't have a use. I also noticed that the terrain is way bigger than what I use, so I can delete the some terrain pieces as well.
Textures and Materials
Textures and Materials
I haven't checked at all how textures are loaded, but I know that the textures for my mask can be compressed which is a lot cleaner. I want to give that a try.
I'll also have a look at if some materials can be instances instead.
Culling
Culling
My environment is quite big with several regions. I think occlusion and camera culling would fit the best
