Hacking Reality in Unreal Engine 5

Uploading real world to Unreal Engine 5 to create a super small metaverse.

A short video but a long process based on 1500 pictures to recreate the all alley. Full photogrammetry from 6k videos.

I think that's what the metaverse should look like few years from now, if a company decides to put the work into that challenge.

It took me 10 days but I spent almost half thinking and learning how to get better rendering for this environment, as each environment is a new challenge for me. This 3D-scan was not easy, long hours to spent on cleaning all the messy surfaces of the top because I took pictures from ground only and had to reconstruct all the roof details.

Rendered with ray tracing in 4K resolution in 15 minutes, model quality is even beyond but I still have issues with the engine to get the best of the textures.

All models were made by me except :
