Investor Rendering Presets

Agrarian should support high-end cinematic capture without making ray tracing a baseline requirement. The investor demo should look credible in the default non-ray-traced path first, then scale up when local hardware supports it.

Preset definitions live in Config/AgrarianRenderingPresets.ini.

Default

Default is the investor demo baseline for remote play, screen sharing, and common tester hardware.

  • Target: 1080p, 60 FPS.
  • Ray tracing: disabled.
  • Lighting: Lumen software/global illumination path.
  • Shadows: virtual shadow maps enabled.
  • Use case: packaged demo, repeated testing, and normal investor handoff.

Recommended is for local GPU testing and investor machines that handle Unreal 5 Lumen comfortably.

  • Target: 1440p, 60 FPS.
  • Ray tracing: disabled.
  • Lighting/reflection quality: higher software Lumen settings where available.
  • Use case: local capture and higher-fidelity live walkthroughs without relying on ray-tracing support.

Cinematic

Cinematic is optional and should be used only for controlled local capture or high-end walkthroughs.

  • Target: 4K, 30 FPS.
  • Ray tracing: optional high-end mode.
  • Lighting/reflections: hardware Lumen when available.
  • Use case: screenshots, short clips, and investor capture passes.

Policy

  • No gameplay feature should require ray tracing.
  • The default investor demo must remain credible with ray tracing disabled.
  • The packaged investor demo should launch against the Default preset unless a tester explicitly selects another profile.
  • Cinematic settings may be slower and should never become the required tester path.
  • If a visual feature only works in cinematic mode, it needs a default-mode fallback before it can be considered MVP-ready.
