After some additional testing, the [ArchVis] Deferred Passes still need to be used for High Resolution Rendering.
The view transformation happens too late with regular Deferred Passes and I cannot adjust it that way.
Please reach out if something does not work as expected.
The plugin will generally require an update after each engine update, so give me some to assess the changes and adjust accordingly before you update to the latest version.
ArchVisCineCamera​
This plugin features an ArchVisCineCamera which can automatically correct the view to look like a 2-point perspective (with the vertical lines being truly vertical). The strength of the correction can be adjusted as required.
There is also an experimental `ArchVisSceneCapture2D` which allows the rendering of an ArchVisCineCamera to a texture.
All the properties are accessible in Blueprint and can be animated in Sequencer.
Movie Render Queue Passes​
To render the unique features of the ArchVisCineCamera, some custom Movie Render Queue Passes were created, based on the existing ones. The following are available:
- [ArchVis] Deferred Rendering
- [ArchVis] Deferred Rendering (Unlit)
- [ArchVis] Deferred Rendering (Detail Lighting)
- [ArchVis] Deferred Rendering (Lighting Only)
- [ArchVis] Deferred Rendering (Reflections Only)
- [ArchVis] Path Tracer
- [ArchVis] Object Id (Limited) [since v1.1]
Dataprep Operations​
Custom Dataprep Operations were created to provide more functionality. The following are available:
- Branch Merge [Operation]
- Build Adjacency [Operation]
- Explode [Operation]
- Face Camera [Operation] (The operation doesn’t currently work on UE5 Preview, but the component can be manually added)
- Material Name [Filter]
- Replace Camera [Operation]
- Simplify Hierarchy [Operation]
- Debug Operations [Operation]
