List View replaces scroll bar
Optimized POI Label Opacity and Rotation
Replaced the constant per-frame (Tick) distance and opacity calculations from the original ArchViz Explorer with an optimized hybrid approach: Timer-based distance checks: The distance to the camera is now updated at fixed intervals (e.g., every 0.5 seconds) to reduce unnecessary calculations. Smooth interpolation: Opacity transitions are handled by a lightweight Tick function using interpolation, ensuring […]
Shadows for Panels
Fully Rotatable Gradient Material
Implemented a material feature that allows gradient-based elements to be rotated at any angle.
Improved: POI Opacity Animation Performance
Replaced Event Tick interpolation with a Timeline to handle POI geometry opacity changes. This change improves performance in scenes with multiple POIs.
Improved: Unified Mode Change Dispatchers
Merged multiple mode change Event Dispatchers into a single dispatcher using an enumerator.
Background Music
Loops randomly selected music tracks to enhance mood. Automatically disables playback when gallery videos are active.
Camera Focus Updates with Orbit Target Change
Updates the camera focus distance when the orbit target changes, ensuring the new target remains sharp and unaffected by DOF (depth of field) blur. Update 01 – July 23, 2025: Moved from Planned to Completed.
Clamp Camera Rotation for POIs
Constrains the player’s camera rotation after focusing on a POI, locking the view to a predefined angle or direction.
POI Interactables
POIs can now have Blueprint actors assigned to them that react when selected or deselected. These interactables can play animations, change materials, move objects, or trigger other visual effects. Each POI holds a list of these actors and calls their Activate or Deactivate events automatically. This makes it easy to create custom responses per POI […]
