Vrscene Files Scene Overrides

[Witt3D]

Hi all,

is there anyway to override for example displacement values fron a vrscene file imported into maya.

Facing some memory issues, that are depending on the final image resolution, so it would be great to control some of these and other values inside Maya.

Thank you.

Yes, you can by editing the .vrscene. Open the .vrscene with a text viewer (Notepad), search for the "GeomDisplacedMesh" plugin and edit its settings.

Yes, thats the way we have handle for that case. We were asking inside Maya in the scene override tab inside Maya interface.

Some values should be modified just in case we dont have enough memory for high reoslution images, this is te main reason why we are asking for a override option just in the scene were we have import the vrscenes.

If we modify like we have do, the vrscene itself its modify for all the scene we will use it.

Thank you.

I understand. You can override the .vrscene settings with the Scene overrides by taking the plugin name and its affected asset along with the parameters you would like to manipulate. Paste the necessary overrides in the snippet, for instance:

GeomDisplacedMesh mesh_displaced_3 {

displacement_amount=50;
edge_length=50;

}

Thank you so much.

Is there any way to disable displacement from this specific vrscene with the Scene overrides?

Snippets do not have an effect on setting plugins. You would have to manually disable the displacement for each object.
