Datasmith Feature Requests

Hi All,

Not sure if its possible to do what I am asking currently or if this would be a feature request? I would love to have the ability to save presets.
For example when I start a project I always have certain settings on and or off. I setup a lightmassimportance volume, skylight with a hdri etc etc. It would be great to save this scene as the startup default scene so I do not have to do that for every scene I open.

Would be great to save out presets, for example lightmass settings. I have different settings for my first bake and final bake, would be great to just save those out and load them into any scene, instead of redoing them every time.

Even material defaults and presets that could be loaded into other scene would be very helpful.

The ability to network render the build. I know you have swarm but I still cant seem to get that to work correctly and or efficiently. ( Is there a good video showing the setup of this on computers across a network.

Thanks
Alex

I agree word by word. For lightmassing on swarm here you have recent documentation. I’ve got near 90 cores running fine.

Setting up a project the way you want it, and then saving that as a Template may help with some of your request. https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Engine/Basics/Projects/CreatingTemplates
