Introducing Hemisphere Skies – the next-generation solution for cinematic sky playback in Unreal Engine.
Hemisphere Skies transforms your virtual environments by delivering photorealistic, high-dynamic-range sky timelapses captured from real-world conditions. Imagine scenes lit with genuine sunlight, dynamic cloud movement, and accurate, natural lighting – all in real-time. Whether you’re working on virtual production, architectural visualization, or high-end cinematic projects, Hemisphere Skies brings unmatched authenticity to your scenes.
This plugin seamlessly integrates with Unreal Engine, allowing you to:
• Play back ultra-high-resolution HDR sky timelapses, with true-to-life lighting values.
• Experience dynamic, non-looping sky sequences that capture the passage of time naturally.
• Utilize real-world captured data for accurate environmental lighting, enhancing reflections, shadows, and overall scene realism.
I’m re-designing Hemisphere Skies from the ground up, optimizing both performance and quality, and ensuring compatibility with Unreal Engine 5.
