Things To Know About LUMEN [Unreal Engine 5]
Рет қаралды 204,848
Күн бұрынDISCLAIMER: Please take some of the advice in this video with a grain of salt, as this video was released 1-2 days after the release of UE5 Early Access, before much documentation on Lumen was available.
Some of the things in this video could be outdated now.
Lumen is a brand new feature that was made available in Unreal Engine 5 as of May 26th. As we all know, UE5 came out of the blue, and with it, a plethora of new tools! This tutorial covers how to use Lumen, how to fix common issues, and limitations of Lumen.
We talk about how to fix noisy shadows, GI issues, and console commands.
Yeah. Console commands are still here. Yay.

Hey everyone, I'm going to pin all the solutions that some of you in the comments have figured out, to make it easier for everyone to find: - To fix the skybox issue at 12:00, just disable "Affect Distance Field Lighting" in the dome mesh details and you'll be good to go. The same is valid for any mesh you want to exclude from Lumen GI calculations for some reason like an unsolvable bouncing glitch or something. - Regarding the Nanite tree. The shadows can be fixed by turning on distance field shadows on your direct light. Also the disappearing leaves can be fixed by using a custom LoD on the tree which Nanite should use for lowest detail level. It's explained in the UE5 docs how to do this."

Another way to solve it is by ticking an option on the HDRI material called "Is sky"

For the shadows, try going into the project settings under "shadow map method" and change it from shadow map to Virtual shadow maps (beta) and see how that looks.

12:00 To solve the issue with the dome interfering with Lumen GI, just disable "Affect Distance Field Lighting" in the dome mesh details and you'll be good to go. The same is valid for any mesh you want to exclude from Lumen GI calculations for some reason like an unsolvable bouncing glitch or something.
@Noxxid3 3 жыл бұрын
I dont think its a glitch but an unintended feature. If you look at the demo scene, you go into any of the static meshes like rocks, its black. GI isnt rendered there. So my guess is, that it thinks thats a static mesh in the level like those rocks so it doesnt allow GI bounce calculations inside the mesh, (possible performance cost). The sphere is just a large static mesh, the Lumen doesnt know that its a sky sphere so it treats it like any other mesh, so you would have to toggle off affect distance field lighting in order for it to get it to work.

Hello William, I've been following you for few months, your videos are so helpful and straight to point and, I have a suggestion you can put it in your consideration if it worth. To save time typing many console commands especially the many re-usable ones, you can create an actor, plug the most used console commands in "Execute Console Command" node and the connect it with a custom event and make sure to check (Call in Editor) option in it. finally, drag and drop this actor into your level and you can then click on which console command you want to use. I think you can use structs or enums to make it better and more advanced. I hope you got a benefit from this comment!! :D

I don’t know who’s more beautiful, you or the new UI😂 great video! Edit: lumen reflections uses proxy mesh that are generated when building Nanite. If mesh is not built with nanite then it uses previously methods( as in UE4). Setting proxy resolution to 100 will keep it same as original but will take more time while building nanite.

IMO the UI is overdone, they need to bring back the features that made it easy to just look at something and know what it is rather than having to investigate. For instance, in the world view (the list of objects in scene), the eye that shows whether something is visible or not, is not hidden until you hover your cursor over it. Also, the UI earlier had much more depth to it, which aided in overall workflow. Too much flat stuff while looks nice aesthetically, ends up becoming not informative enough for use.

@@Scrapemist if you're placing aesthetics first rather than function then that's not going to go well. All powerful things look ugly first and I expect them to bring back many of the useful visual aids present in UE4. I am an artist and have been in UX myself so UE4 initially looked strange to me as well but once you use it you see why it is what it is. Some of the worst software I have ever used looked "professional" much like some of the most clueless people in industry look professional with their ties and suits but in the end looks don't matter if the functionality is missing.

Maybe that could make some change for HDRI illumination. And is there the same problem when using HDRI Backdrop? I do architectural visualization and HDRIs are very important for me. Also I did not see anyone mentioning GPU lightmass baking. Do you know has that been improved or changed in any way comparing to 4.26? Tnx.
