SYNC.
THIS IS A CLIP DEMONSTRATING AN UNREAL ENGINE VIEWPORT WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LIGHTING AND SKYBOX THAT IS SYNCED WITH A CAPTURED MIDI CLIP FROM DEADMAU5’ ABLETON LIVE SET. IT ALLOWS FOR LOOPING, SCRUBBING, ETC. AND WILL RE-TRIGGER ALL PLUGINS, SOUNDS, ETC. LIVE WITH NEXT TO NO LATENCY.
ENVIRONMENT.
THE ENVIRONMENT IS A COMBINATION OF A 1:1 MODEL OF DEADMAU5’ CUBE V3 STAGE WITH LIGHTS, FIXTURES, AND PIVOT POINTS FOR MOTOR MOVEMENTS HOUSED INSIDE OF THE ARENA FROM THE GAME PUBG, WHO’S PUBLISHER WAS PARTNERING WITH US AT THE TIME.
TOUCHDESIGNER LINK
WE CONNECTED UNREAL ENGINE TO ARGUABLY THE MOST COMPLICATED TOUCHDESIGNER PROJECT IN THE WORLD. WE WERE ABLE TO STREAM ALL VIDEO CONTENT AND LIGHTING DATA FROM THE PROJECT IN REAL-TIME DRIVEN BY ABLETON LIVE INTO UNREAL ENGINE AND REPLICATE EVERYTHING ON THE PHYSICAL STAGE, DIGITALLY.
FIRST PERSON RUN THROUGH
VIDEO RUNTHROUGH
WE WERE ABLE TO ADD AROUND 50 NON PLAYER CHARACTERS AND 50 PLAYER CONTROLLED CHARACTERS AT THE TIME IN 2020, WITH A NEGLIGIBLE PERFORMANCE HIT. USING THE LATEST VERSION OF UNREAL ENGINE WE’D BE ABLE TO BLAST PAST THAT DUE TO NEW EFFICIENCIES IN RENDERING THAT WEREN’T AVAILABLE THEN, AS WELL AS A GENERATIONAL INCREASE IN VISUAL FIDELITY.
