Development Process

Step 1: Modify existing 3D Models for compatibility with Lumen

The project began with creating a Project Requirements Document (PRD) in collaboration with the client. This ensured clarity on deliverables, aligning technical capabilities with the client’s vision and setting a solid foundation for development.

Step 2: Rig car models for Unreal Engine animations

To maximize efficiency, we used pre-existing Marketplace 3D Assets and modified them to fit the application’s specific needs. This involved using Unreal Engine 5’s Modeling Tools to refine meshes and adjust anchor points, streamlining the export/import process for compatibility with three.js.

Step 3: Modify Large-Scale City model for compatibility

Materials for the 3D assets were crafted in Unreal Engine, focusing on both visual quality and functionality. These materials were programmed to be dynamically adjustable through the application’s code, ensuring a responsive and interactive experience for end users.

Step 4: Render Lumen Image and Movie Sequences, Render Pathtraced Images

Key Project Aspects

✨ Visual Excellence: High-quality 3D assets and materials create incredible results with Lumen, allowing for Realtime playback and almost instant renders in Unreal Engine 5.

⏩ Optimized Performance: Different render setups and optimized materials allow for Realtime performance at exceptional quality.

🪄 Versatility: Seamless switch to Pathtraced & Lumen render workflows allow for scene multi-use, high-quality final pixel renders and Realtime performance,

😊 Client Satisfaction: The client’s vision was exceeded, by providing multiple rendered motion sequences only possible due to the almost real-time rendering of Lumen Scenes. For high quality still image shots, pathtraced renders were used to achieve maximum photorealistic qualities.
