Topic: Nanite Displacement In Unreal Engine 5.2+

In this video we look at how to utilize Displacement Maps in Unreal Engine 5.2+ to produce more detailed Nanite Meshes that can efficently display high quality geometric details. We will go over the steps and workflow to setup and apply displacement maps as well as the settings for producing a fallback mesh if Nanite is not supported.

Additional Info:
- Red Channel is used for Displacement, Greyscale Maps will work but if you Pack Maps, you can use the Red Channel for Displacement.
