# Quickstart

## <mark style="color:$danger;">Main Folder:</mark> <a href="#dependencies" id="dependencies"></a>

You can find the **Multi-Biome** files:

{% hint style="info" %}
\\\Content\ProceduralWorldGen\MultiBiomes
{% endhint %}

You can check the **Multi Biomes Map** to see how we did everything:

## 2- Preparing the Landscape and Lighting Setup:

{% hint style="warning" %}
Required when you create a new map.
{% endhint %}

**Procedural Multi Biomes** requires a specially designed "**Landscape Material**" for its operation.&#x20;

ScansLibrary assets are **PBR calibrated**. So when you create a new map use the this lighting settings&#x20;

### **2a- Lighting Setup:**

**Copy the entire text and press CTRL+V on the UE5 viewport.**
