The Visual Engine is a next-level tool designed to unify any asset from the Unity Asset Store, Megascans, Speedtree, Tree Creator, and more, or custom models made by your team. It enables high-quality wind motion, interaction, local wind control, seasons, wetness, dynamic rain, advanced snow, subsurface scattering, and more. The tool comes with a one-click conversion workflow for 3rd party assets, a comprehensive set of modular elements, and an advanced Material Manager tool. It also includes an advanced Shader Manager, Scene Debugger, and Element Shaders for detailing and customizing motion interaction, motion direction, wind power, tinting, overlay, wetness, cutout, emissive, subsurface, and size fade.
The Visual Engine supports the following features:
- One-click and non-destructive Prefab conversion and reverting
- Automatic Mesh and Material conversion and Textures packing
- Advanced Material Manager tool to set the settings for all/selected prefabs at once
- Advanced Presets API for conversion or material setting which can be saved and reused
