  • stingray / Unreal

    Hi all,

    So I have been looking for a way to get real time interactions into my companies presentations. My work flow is 3ds max /vray. I have started to do some panoramic stuff with Pano2vr. They are happy with that output. I can make panoramic and put them on the web or into a pdf file for clients while still maintaining the high quality that they are used to seeing with vray. What I am really trying to do ( for internal use and client presentations ) is have the ability to make changes in real time. Something like this video example http://panorender.com/. I have looked into things like Cl3ver which give me the functionality but not the quality I am looking for. I also looked at Sketchfab which the quality is good but not the functionality.

    This has led me to looking into some game engines. Unreal and Stingray. I know Unreal has the functionality but the work flow and process to get things up and running looks very long and does not follow my workflow process. Stingray, I would think would be a easier work flow but I really havent played around with it and its so new that its hard to find good info on it that is not a 3 min demo from Autodesk.

    I was wondering how any of you that are in the arch/viz fields are tackling this issue, any info or feedback would be great.

    Thanks!
    Cheers

    Right now I'm really digging a workflow of baking lighting/textures with vray in 3dsmax and bringing everything into Unity3d to view in VR.

    This details more or less the process - http://www.quitenice.co/blog/2014/9/...nity3d-updated

    There are some newer posts that detail other aspects of the process. At least for interiors, it has been manageable to work this way. I've only converted a handful of projects so I haven't fully learned how best to optimize assets in the game engine when hiccups occur.

      Hey Brendan,

      Thanks for the great info. I actually was just reading up on baking this morning and it seems like that will be my next venture into this process.

      I will let you know how it goes.

      Thanks
      Cheers
