<aside> 🔥 What is it? Floor Generator is a Houdini Digital Asset designed for creating floor patterns in Houdini or Unreal Engine using Houdini Engine. This useful tool enables you to quickly generate and customize a detailed floor for your project, apply materials to it, and automatically create UV unwraps to avoid tiling. It's particularly suitable for architectural visualization projects and straightforward game projects.

Features:

• Apply to any flat surfaces or objects, even if it's sloped.
• Add subtract objects.
• Choose from 5 different tile patterns.
• Adjust their length, width, and individual settings.
• Modify global settings such as seam width, rotation, offsets, extrude, bevel, bevel on corners, bevel detail, their tilt on 2 axes for added realism.
• Assign colors and random darkening to tiles.
• Assign any number of materials for greater variety.
• Automatically generate UV unwraps for both the first and second channels (for Lighting Cache in Unreal Engine).
• Adjust UV settings, such as UV rotation, random UV rotation, and UV scaling.
• A fast-working tool for instant preview of your settings and making changes.

Requirements:

• Houdini FX 19.5+, Houdini Indie 19.5+,
• SideFX Labs
• Unreal Engine 5.1+

Settings by type of floor

Type - Choose one of the five pattern types Length - Length of one tile (typically the same for all patterns) Width - Width of one tile (typically the same for all patterns)

Running Bond
