Advanced Features

Post Effects

Elevate real-time raster rendering with digital filters like Ambient Occlusion, Anti-Aliasing, and Bloom. Fine-tune shadow intensity, color balance, and screen space reflections for photorealistic lighting, smoother edges, and authentic material interactions. Optimize performance while achieving cinematic visuals.

Post-processing Effects

Post-processing is a "digital filter" that enhances lighting, shadows, materials, and visual details through real-time effects, making real-time raster rendering results more realistic or stylized. Post-processing effects take effect when enabled.
These effects only apply to real-time raster rendering and do not impact ray-traced rendering outputs.

Post-processing effects impact real-time raster rendering performance. Use judiciously.

Ambient Occlusion

Simulates natural shadows in object crevices to enhance scene depth and realism.

  • Intensity: Shadow darkness level. Higher values produce darker shadows.
  • Offset: Shadow diffusion range.

Anti-aliasing

Reduces jagged edges on models for smoother visuals.

  • Samples: Edge-smoothing intensity. Higher values increase smoothness but may cause blurring and reduce rendering performance.

Static STAA Anti-aliasing

Optimized anti-aliasing for static scenes. Activates only when the display is unchanged.

  • Samples: Edge-smoothing intensity. Higher values increase smoothness but may cause blurring and reduce rendering performance.

Shadows

Adjusts shadows cast by dynamic light sources.

  • Samples: Shadow edge smoothness. Higher values yield softer edges.
  • Intensity: Shadow darkness and depth.

Color Balance

Adjusts global contrast, saturation, brightness, and tone mapping.

  • Contrast: Light/dark contrast intensity.
  • Saturation: Color vibrancy.
  • Brightness: Overall luminance baseline.
  • Tone Mapping: Color space selection (enabled by default in the editor).

Bloom

Creates halo effects around light sources for enhanced visual impact.

  • Brightness Threshold: Light-source detection sensitivity. Only values above threshold trigger bloom.
  • Intensity: Halo visibility strength.
  • Horizontal Blur: Horizontal halo softness.
  • Vertical Blur: Vertical halo softness.

Screen Space Reflections

Calculates real-time reflections on glossy surfaces using current frame data for realistic material interactions.

  • Max Steps: Reflection ray-detection limit.
  • Step Size: Ray-detection distance per step.
  • Blur Size: Softens jagged reflection edges.
  • Intensity: Reflection visibility strength.
