What’s the state of play with Megascans?

TB: We’ve been in beta since January, but we’re doing different phases. We have so many materials – around 10,000 now – that it takes time to test everything. We got some great feedback from the first beta round, so we’ve improved the tiling, and that takes time to compile for 10,000 materials. Each data set is around 500GB.

Alongside that, we built the infrastructure for handling this huge [set of] data. That’s all in place, so we’re gearing up for the second closed beta phase. Megascans turned out to be such a massive, massive thing that we’re taking our time to make sure everything is working flawlessly when we release it. It’s our flagship product.
Which means we gonna have to wait for many more months or even years :roll:

My guess is they're gonna get beat to market by someone else. There's been way too much interest and way too many delays for another company not to have something in the works by now.

I don't really understand why they had to start with 10.000 materials. Why they couldn't just start small, like 500 materials, and then every month add 100 more, or something like that... :roll:

How am I even supposed to find what I'm looking for in 10,000 scans? Even with search tags thats a lot of stuff to sift through and test out.
