FASTEST Way to Optimize Unreal Engine 5.3 for Cinematic Renders - Path Tracer Pro (NOW FREE!) 

Yeah. No need to spend 9,99 $ on a plugin.

Like I said in response to another comment pointing this out, this console command can be a viable alternative especially for fixing the Ray Traced shadows issue in Lit mode, however it actually introduces some odd shadow artifacts in Path Tracing that can ruin the image, which makes it less ideal for cinematics. Generally, I find changing the fallback error to be the ideal solution to the problem, especially when working with Path Tracing, as it gets as close as possible to fully fixing the issue without introducing any artifacts and still providing flexibility with Nanite.

@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms can you show me those shadow issues? Maybe there might be a console command for that to.

@@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms but according to UE documentation it says ray tracing nanite mode is much more efficient than zero fall back mesh. Assumably use less fall back error simply mean decrease the effect of performance boost from nanite, in this case have you tested the performance difference from the plug-in than just turning off the nanite? From my experience, nanite actually have some cost as well

Thanks for the console command, spent some time looking for it. I knew there must be a way for that fix quickly. Respect also for this channel, who plays fairly and doesn't delete comments. You guys all great.

Does disabling nanite really use less GPU than nanite with zero fallback?

That is true, but disabling Nanite on all meshes doesn't allow you to utilize the benefits of Nanite for scene building and speed in Lit mode. The console command is a viable alternative especially for fixing the Ray Traced shadows issue in Lit mode, however when I was experimenting with it, I found that it introduces some odd shadow artifacts in Path Tracing that can ruin the image, which makes it less ideal for cinematics. Generally, I find changing the fallback error to be the ideal solution to the problem, especially when working with Path Tracing, as it gets as close as possible to fully fixing the issue without introducing any artifacts and still providing flexibility.

@@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms the command r.RayTracing.Shadows.EnableTwoSidedGeometry 0 might help as a quick fix, but I still get issues with nanite meshes sometimes. Glad to see you released a plugin mate, keep up good work :)

😂 plugin doing the same thing. Also if you are working on alot heavier scene viewport wont even move.

true

Thanks man! Love the work you're doing and appreciate you taking the time to comment!

@@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms Hey no worries. Thought it was about time I reached out. Let me know if you're ever around for a chat. Would be nice to meet you properly.

Thanks for the feedback! We will get on that as soon as possible, shouldn't be a problem!

@@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms Thanks you ^^ and please support for 5.1 i have a lot of projects that was made with that version and i think many other people have the same, 5.2 is new and a lot of things are not yet supported ! big thanks again

That is actually a duplicate HDRI backdrop I had put in place for a different lighting setup/demonstration for the course. I made it Hidden in Game so it won't show up in renders or Path Tracing, I just didn't bother to disable it when making the video. Thanks for watching!

You do not need to purchase this plugin to join or follow along with the course - it is just a tool to speed up a few processes and save you time!

Hello! We currently have 9 Google reviews on this course, which you can find here: rb.gy/9hjt8 We also had a few satisfied students comment on another RU-vid video about the course, which you can find here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RfTVeIwB2Dw.html&lc=UgzC0RgVX8DRtqHqhvV4AaABAg Hope that is helpful! -- Sam

There is a new plugin that has replaced it, called LightForge. It can do everything PT Pro can do, plus a lot more. PT Pro was also updated, so it now does more than it did originally. Anyone who purchased Path Tracer Pro previously was upgraded to LightForge for free and now PT Pro is free!

Hello and thanks for your comment! If you would like to take a look at some reviews, we have a decent number of them on Google, which you can find here: rb.gy/9hjt8 I would also say that the point of this course is to deliver the information you need to know in the span of 10 days - it takes some people longer than 10 days, depending on how quickly you learn and how much experimentation and practice you do. I recommend taking your time on the course and experimenting as much as possible, as I have found that is often the best way to learn. But ultimately, there is no reason you can't learn the information and skills needed to work in a professional setting in this time span. Developing the eye and artistic vision to become a great visual effects artist or filmmaker is what can take a long time, but if you have a streamlined, tailored course designed to deliver the information you need to know in a way that optimizes your learning efficiency, you can get to the point where you're developing your eye and vision as a filmmaker/artist much more quickly, instead of worrying about technical details bogging you down! Hopefully that gives some insight into your question! I would also recommend checking out the course page here for more details about the course: boundless-resource.com/ultimate-unreal-engine-for-filmmakers-bundle-build/

The plugin has been updated and now includes functionality to apply helpful console commands quickly in addition to the optimization and de-optimization features. If it's too much of a time commitment to download the plugin, then the Bulk Property matrix and manually applying console commands is always an option as well. I think that takes a lot more time though personally.

I just added 25 hours of new content a couple months ago and have been consistently updating it with all the new features of the engine. It's not even remotely close to the same course.

The console command can be a viable alternative especially for fixing the Ray Traced shadows issue in Lit mode, however it actually introduces some odd shadow artifacts in Path Tracing that can ruin the image, which makes it less ideal for cinematics. Changing the fallback error is the ideal solution to the problem in most cases I've found, especially when working with Path Tracing, as it gets as close as possible to fully fixing the issue without introducing any artifacts and still providing flexibility with Nanite. Additionally, we will be providing several new features that are already in the works for optimizing your scene for path tracing, at no additional charge for anyone who has already purchased the plugin. So the value of the plugin will be increasing significantly in the near future with no additional charges. We are trying very hard to provide excellent quality and value at low prices.

@@BoundlessEntertainmentFilms I can see that your target are young people making baby steps in the world of 3d. The way that you're selling it gives it away: "Does your model look ugly? Buy our plugin!". I would actually make an honest to god video about commands that you utillize and compare the workflow between your solution and existing one. Actually some more seasoned UE users might get interested instead of yapping about how"simple is that command yadda yadda". "Yes, I'm tired of looking up these commads online all the time, yes, I'm wasting 10 minutes of my life every time I do that. Yes, probably I'd buy the plugin." I like the idea in general - all the cinematic quality settings in one place, I can imagine an improved camera rollout with bokeh, aspect ratio, anamorphic options, maybe EXR export options, Luts and whatnot - all in one place... You're onto something, and you're obliged to make it proper! Cheers
