We’re happy to announce Photomode!

Would you like to be able to take pictures in-game? Would you like to make amazing in-game shots for media?
The Photomode allows you to drag & drop a photomode into your project and instantly start taking amazing pictures!

Change saturation, contrast, gain, gamma, grain and much more with a easy and clean UI.

The pack comes with it’s own Day And Night blueprint* to control the day and night time inside the pictures as well as full Gamepad support!

Furthermore we’ve created a interface that calls useful functions such as “Pre-Enter PhotoMode” and “Post-Enter Photomode” to let you easily affect the game and character when going into and out of photo mode.
This would allow you to hide the character, set a certain setting, define booleans and much more before and after photomode!

Enter and exit photomode by the click of a button
Full gamepad support
Reset slider support(also in gamepad)
Smooth exit functionality

Original and really cool tool :wink:

[MENTION=262027]Panda Studios[/MENTION] Awesome tool, but why isn’t there an option for 360 deg. mono / stereo capture ? :frowning:

Thank you!

No it won’t support this. It’s targeted to be a blueprint pack.

Looks amazing :slight_smile: Well done, as always!

Thank you!

looks very intersting.
up to what scale can the images be exported ? Monitor resolution or even bigger ?
kind regards

Hey,

We have a screenshot magnifier in it, you can scale up to 3x(configurable). Taking screenshots with the magnifier might cause artifacts though, although in a shipped game(cooked) it should be away but that’s out of our control as we use Epic’s screenshot system for it.
We did add a quality bar so you can upscale for a 1x picture as well.

Hi Panda. I’m implementing in-photography to procedurally create Item Icons, Player Portraits, and more. I purchased this plugin. Unfortunately, it has issue saving images to disk at the time. Can Photomode images be saved/loaded locally, remotely or both?

Photomode saves pictures in the saved folder. You can load them locally, and then use them anywhere you want.

At first I wanted to say “But you could use nvidia ansel - a free plugin for unreal engine for this!”
but after seeing the promo video : D daaamn… thats really impressive. I can see how this could be used for so many other things.

I really love this. Thank you a lot.

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I Really do like your Plugin, but its absolutely not working when used on a Game with Dedicated Server. Then you cannot move your mouse and so on.
Is there any possibility that you fix this?
