About the project

I wanted to a nice virtual apartment with Unreal Engine that I can walk around and perhaps in the near future .. make it my Virtual home and invite some friends in VR :D

Also, I wanted something that looks good so it can be part of our Unreal Engine Architectural Masterclass.

The complete process is covered with narrated videos, more details below.

Let me give you an overview of the process:

I started with a mood-board of images I collected from Pinterest and Behance then saved them to Pureref.

Started 3d modeling with the biggest elements of the projects, walls, floors, windows ...etc

Then working on adding some smaller elements like the kitchen, sofas, TV Set

Many of the furniture assets are ready from 3d marketplaces such as 3dsky and VizPeople & google

--

I exported everything from 3Ds Max to Unreal Engine with Datasmith Exporter.

--

Then moved on to the lighting, materials ... etc

Lighting is baked with the GPU Lightmass, many of the materials are from Quixel Megascans and some are from CGAxis PBR Collection.

I kept tweaking and experimenting on the project for a while on and off while I was preparing the video tutorials and the structure of the course

--

Once I was satisfied, I started with blueprints and working on some interactivity.

Like changing materials, camera smoothness, Main Menu ... etc

--

Some of the next steps are tweaking some smaller details, adding a background to the outside, and optimization for Virtual Reality!
