This page provides an overview of the “Render material from .vrscene” and its use.
Page Contents
Overview
When you import your vrscene all materials are analyzed and optimized for real-time. However the original material parameters are stored as metadata which can be called at render time. This feature enables you to switch between rendering the material that was set in Unreal Engine or the material that was stored in the vrscene file. This gives the possibility to use various and more complex materials that were created outside Unreal ( e.g. Blend materials, Carpaints, Subsurface materials, etc.).
