What Unreal Engine 5 was TRULY made for. I mean, I guess this is more of a demonstration of physics and Nanite than anything else…? Who are we kidding? I just wanted the excuse to roll cheese wheels down a mountain.
This is using the same set as the High Hrothgar video, off the Throat of the World, sans the monastery. These were rigid body physics actors, not a particle system, so real physics collisions here.
I’m rounding up to ten thousand here – this actually got up to 9753 wheels of cheese before Unreal hit 1fps and crashed on me in-editor. That could probably have gone up if I’d dialled down the lighting settings and the scene density. Either way, super don’t recommend you try this at home.

Done in Unreal Engine 5.5 on an RTX 3090. Using a mix of third-party models and custom assets modelled and textured in Blender. Nanite was used for all models and foliage; Lumen for global illumination and reflections. DLAA was used for all anti-aliasing.

Here’s the full, complete cut of all the walkthroughs from my lore-accurate Skyrim videos – in third person – feat. Windwalker Echo. Cinematics: https://youtu.be/TnmyZVrClqg Part of an ongoing project to visualise a more realistic and lore-accurate size to Tamriels cities, removed from gameplay and technical restrictions.
This one covers all the major cities + some smaller towns, villages and POIs around Skyrim: Whiterun, Blackreach, Solitude, Markarth, Riften, Windhelm, Dawnstar, Forgotten Vale, Winterhold, Morthal, Falkreath, Riverwood, Ivarstead, Dragon Bridge and Rorikstead. Timestamps below.
These shots were all captured from past projects at 60fps using Unreal’s built-in take recorder with DOF turned off at the Cinematic quality preset. DLAA & TAA were used for anti-aliasing.

Rendered out in Unreal Engine 5.4 – 5.8 Preview on an RTX 3090. Using a mix of third-party models and custom assets modelled in Blender, textured in Mixer. Nanite was used for all models and foliage; Lumen for global illumination and reflections.
Please NOTE: This is a FANMADE cinematic lore visualisation for the Elder Scrolls. It is NOT a mod!

Part of an ongoing project to visualise a more realistic and lore-accurate scale to Tamriel – so here’s Riverwood – now with sixteen times the detail! Finally got around to Riverwood – just a bit more fleshed out as a village – and also trying to capture that slightly magical ‘first time walking into’ feeling at the start of the game...

![Virtual Aquarium | Forest in a (Water) Bottle | UE5 [4K]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qtZhPbMZ31U/mqdefault.jpg "Virtual Aquarium | Forest in a (Water) Bottle | UE5 [4K]
Been a (another) hot minute, but if you’re new here, this was a type of (literal) test-bench scene I was doing back in the Early Access phase of Unreal Engine 5 a few years ago – mostly with the aim of testing out the different new features that UE5 had to offer and then later on, figuring out what had changed or which bugs had been fixed which each new version of the engine.
In particular, 5.6 introduced a new form of (experimental) ray traced translucency through the Lumen hardware ray tracing pipeline – which wow – really makes a big difference and makes very challenging scenes like this even possible without path tracing at all. Although it has to be said that it also seemed to cause some weirdness with Niagara systems, with collision and rendering, both with translucent and non-translucent mesh renderers…? Granted I was using cpu-based ray tracing collisions? Hopefully just a bug with how the pipeline works...
Rendered out in Unreal Engine 5.6.1 on an Nvidia RTX 3090 using Nanite for most meshes, Lumen for GI and reflections and a combination of Megascans, Blender modelled & textured assets, and third-party assets.
(also now with even wayyy more fish!)

Just a quick snapshot of some of my favourite 3D art works that Ive done these past few of months. Rendered in realtime using the Unreal Engine 5 game engine. #shorts
Blender was used for some asset creation and simulations, Quixel megascans for some 3d assets and texturing. Marketplace contect for specialised assets. All final outputs done in UE5.
