Use Gaea2Unreal, specifically the Gaea Landscape Importer, to easily import a Gaea terrain in Unreal Engine 5 with a single click.
Importing terrains into Unreal Engine can be a complicated process, especially when dealing with various scales. Gaea2Unreal aims to make this an easy, seamless experience for you.
See the Unreal Node section on how to prepare your terrain for export.
Once you have installed the Gaea2Unreal plugin in your UE installation, you will see the Gaea Landscape Importer in the main toolbar in Unreal Engine.
Clicking it will bring up the Gaea Landscape Importer window. Click Import Heightmap and select the PNG file that was exported from Gaea. The Importer will read the heightmap file along with the metadata saved by Gaea for UE-scale conversion, and populate the specifics in the window.
Click Create Landscape and you're done!
See the Importing Weight Maps section to see how to expand on this import process by importing additional assets as weight maps.
