Pixotope World Settings

Enable a preview output while working in the Editor.

Learn more about the WYSIWYG broadcast workflow

Define multiple outputs from a single engine.

Learn more about how to Route more than one output per machine

Optionally output intermediate buffers from before the output image is completed

Include alpha channel in intermediate buffers

Use a debug image instead of the external video input. Optionally set your own Custom Debug Textures (see below).

Use debug tracking instead of the external tracking input

Debug tracking can be found on:
TrackedCamera > CameraTrackerComponent > Debug Camera State

Allows to manually move the TrackedCamera using its transforms

Convert the first unbound Post Process Volume, if one exists, with a Post Process Handler

Learn more about PostProcessHandler vs PostProcessVolume

Make sure these essential Pixotope actors exist, when this level is opened

• CameraRoot

  • TrackedCamera

  • XROutsideFrustumPoint

• MaterialHandler

• PostProcessHandler

Start with viewing the level through the main tracked camera, when playing this level

Use DLSS

Learn more about Screen percentage

Note: When using Custom Screen Percentage Unreal’s screen percentage is disregarded

Modifies the depth of field calculations to make them as accurate as possible to incoming lens data

For materials which have Before DOF enabled.

• In AR scenes, this allows usage of translucency before DOF

• In VS scenes, this allows for the translucent object to correctly composite with the compositing plane, but might add a dark halo around the video

Note: Adds a small performance cost

If you don't use refraction in front of the video, turn it off to save performance.

Note: Materials with refraction also distort the video

Smoothes to the edges of the Compositing plane

Upscale Anti Alias Mask using temporal antialiasing

When enabled together with "Use unjittered projection" on the Media input component, the media input (including 3D living photo) will not be affected by antialiasing.

When enabling "Use unjittered projection", this setting will be enabled by default.

Send this engines camera position to other machines.

Show all camera positions in this Editor viewport

Set a custom LUT file.

Note: State.ColorMatching.ARLUT needs to be empty/undefined. Learn more about how to Control properties of the current show - Store tab

Switch between Internal and External compositing mode.

Learn more about Compositing modes

Controls the console command r.TemporalAA.Upsampling

When rendering in Preview Live mode the render resolution will be upscaled to match the video output resolution

When enabled together with "Use unjittered projection" on the Media input component, the media input will not be affected by tone mapping.

When enabling "Use unjittered projection", this setting will be enabled by default.

Force Ambient Occlusion rendering when using Lumen for Global Illumination

Render the input video behind the graphics

Render the input video on the AR backplate in the Editor viewport

Fade out graphics

When using Lumen check the Render AO With Lumen setting above

Change the intensity

Switch between using black or colored shadows

Multiplier for shadow colors

Samples the video texture for shadow color calculation, giving more realistic results

Use the video luma mask to change the intensity of the shadows, for example in order to avoid awkward real-world/digital shadow overlaps

Enables the multiplication by the video luma mask. Used with new shadows

Luma Mask Power factor

Global shadow strength control

Global shadow power factor

Sets a maximum intensity for shadows which can be useful to simulate ambient light

Change the color intensity of the reflections

Change how visible the reflections are

Try disabling, if translucency compositing is not giving the expected results

Learn more AR Shadow, Reflection & Light Catcher

Add Global Illumination to light catcher.

Note: When using Ray Tracing Global Illumination (Post Process Handler) the Shadow/Reflection/Light catcher material must be non black!

Use with DLSS

Multiply the input fill with the input key inside the engine

Enable, if volumetric fog should be visible on top of the compositing plane

Adds a lightwrap around the edges of the image using the environment

Allows scene objects to cast shadows on to Compositing planes.

Learn more about Compositing Planes

When enabled, the Respill scene capture will automatically update on plane movement.

Note: This decreases performance while plane is moving

When using virtual cameras this will smoothen the video on the compositing plane

"Backplane" is geometry placed just behind the video plane, which can cast shadows and might be necessary for certain effects.

Try to avoid using it, as it can cause issues with DOF and AO

This smoothens the edge of the video on the compositing plane. Try disabling it when you are

• not using the video keyer

• using multiple compositing planes

• OR there is nothing in front of the compositing plane

Allows the compositing plane to cast Screen Space Reflections even with Backplane disabled

Similar to Custom SSR but for Lumen

Switch between tracking sources

Start to record tracking data.
