Parallax Occlusion Depth Crack in Unreal Engine 4

This tutorial shows how to create a depth crack material in Unreal Engine 4 with parallax occlusion mapping, using height and normal maps to fake deep cracks on flat ground.

Use it for ground impacts, damaged floors and decals, and see the related posts below for more crack and ground effects.

Video Description: In this tutorial, we dive into the creation of an ice attack effect, Video Description: In this detailed tutorial, we walk through creating a parallax material from scratch in Unreal Engine. Many of my subscribers have requested a full, step-by-step guide on how to create a parallax crack effect, and here it is! We’ll use basic material nodes and the parallax mapping technique to simulate depth and cracks, combining texture samples, normal maps, and pixel depth offset to create a convincing illusion.


Key Points:

  • Parallax Mapping: Use a parallax node for depth illusion.
  • Base Textures: Rock texture and a mask for cracks.
  • Normal Maps: Create realistic surface detail.
  • Pixel Depth Offset: Simulate crack depth with fake height.
  • Erosion Effect: Animate the crack eroding over time.
  • Particle Integration: Use particles to enhance the crack effect.

Tips:

  • Parallax Mapping: Ensure your texture is connected properly for accurate depth effects.
  • Erosion Animation: Use a power node for smooth animation of crack progression.
  • Normal Map Adjustments: Use the right vector channels for depth and detail.
  • Material Parameters: Tweak the height map and opacity mask for best results.
  • Particle Systems: Add particles like sparks or smoke for added realism.
