Streaming Multi-Tiled Terrains with Unity (Part 4) Baking, PostFX and Final Build

Large Open World Multi-Terrain streaming in Unity 2017 (workflow version 1) Part 4 of 4: Baking the foliage (grass, plants and trees) with Vegetation Studio and final tweaks (screen space shadows, PostFX) A walkthrough of the solution that worked for me, to get to that holy grail of a streaming open world map without asynchronous scene loading lags in Unity.

I wanted to share my current findings and show how I've managed to get to that holy grail of a large multi-tiled streaming terrain without loading lags. This is not an easy topic - you'll need plenty of stamina and perseverance - there's just over 5 hours of footage and it's all a bit convoluted. There are so many different parts to the process that it's hard to explain in an easy to digest format. In fact these screencasts ended up being a little more like a Twitch stream than a tutorial, and are a little unfocused in parts as I fumble my way through some of the issues. Just as I've done, I'd highly recommend iterating and doing multiple tests with different settings. Don't expect it all to work right away with your own content, you'll need to tweak things like tile size, heightmap resolution, the number of individual foliage items, their density, etc. Approach this video series as a version 1 iteration. I'm intending to redo parts of it as my workflow improves. I've since finished coding a couple of tools that automate the process of chunking the terrain into tiles, and the baking of the Vegetation Studio persistent storage packages. It simplifies things a great deal. Finally, an important caveat... I'm no expert, and definitely still learning as I go along, testing things, asking questions on discord/reddit, and reading up on things, but I strongly believe in sharing what I've learned so that others can get a head start.
