Whats the best way to render the highest quality, highest resolution, single frame, still image? Is it the “high resolution screenshot” or should i render only one frame in matinee? I simply can’t find what the “right” way is to render an image in unreal.
go to console “~” and type “HighResShot (w)x(h)” or a multiplier. this works in “game” and plainly in the editor… Soooo:
Ex.
“HighResShot 1920x1080”
“HighResShot 2”
Adding multipliers will increase processing time and if you go too high it will crash depending on your Specs. I’ve been able to successfully render 7k images with this and they look amazing. Definitely a nice feature. You can also make a few adjustments by accessing the options under the viewport options dropdown and selecting High Resolution Screenshot…
Lastly, if you manipulate values in your Camera’s post processing volume, you can make some of the settings slightly more high quality, but for the most part you shouldn’t need that unless you’re looking for something specific.
Hello IndieEmp,
In the top left corner of your viewport there is a drop down arrow. Under that drop down there is an option for high resolution screenshot. If you click this it will bring up a smaller window with options for either taking a screenshot of the entire viewport, or cropping out a size if you want to render a specific area.
JJ’s suggestions will work as well. These high res screenshots will then be in your project folder > saved > screenshots. Note: high res screenshots will not work with AA enabled as they are calculated on frame behind and the screenshot will occur on the current frame.
