Modular Demonstration Map Using Sub-Levels and Folders

Structured the demonstration map into sub-levels and organized actors into folders. This allows users to easily exclude unnecessary parts of the project. This simplifies the setup and customization of the template.

Vertical Plane Camera Navigation

Added support for camera movement along the ZX plane using the middle mouse button. This is especially helpful while moving up and down along tall structures and building facades.

Synchronized Hover States for Labels

Two-way communication between UI list items and POI labels. When a button is hovered in the list, the corresponding POI label reflects the hover state, and vice versa. The Game Instance acts as a centralized mediator for synchronized visual feedback.

Integrated Vagon.io Pixel Streaming Support

In partnership with Vagon Streams, AVE II features built-in integration for no-code pixel streaming, delivering exceptional image quality and enhanced performance worldwide and across all devices.

Expandable POI Labels on Hover

Hover-based label behavior for POIs. When the user hovers over a screen space label or POI geometry, the label expands to reveal the full name, improving readability without cluttering the scene.

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.

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 […]

Audio Feedback on POI Selection

Plays audio cues when users interact with Points of Interest to enhance feedback. Can be extended for status-based cues like “Available”, “Sold”, and “Reserved”.
