Chipmunk Animation | VFX Grace

UE Overview

Presenting a highly realistic chipmunk character asset, crafted specifically for Unreal Engine 5.2 and above. This meticulously designed asset encompasses the model, textures, materials, fur, rigging and animations, making it ready for immediate integration into your projects.

Key Features

Model Details: Total vertex count is 45,706 and polygon count is 45,202, ensuring the model's intricacy and realism.
Textures and Materials: Textures are created using UDIM format and produced in 4K resolution. Textures have already been imported into UE and optimized.
Groom Fur: A complex fur system was created in Blender, and the chipmunk's fur styling has been perfectly replicated using UE's Groom technology, with finely tuned materials.

Usage Notes

Ensure your Unreal Engine version is 5.2 or higher to achieve optimal performance and compatibility
Since the project's textures utilize virtual texturing, ensure the "Virtual Texturing" option is enabled in UE prior to use.
Given the high precision of the model, textures, and the extensive amount of fur, it's suggested for use on higher-end devices.
When importing into your project, ensure to maintain the directory structure to guarantee all linked assets load correctly.
Adjustments to the fur material's brightness and reflectivity may be needed based on your scene's lighting.
