A Panoramic Sphere actor is always rendered when in scene. So if you need it only at a specific time, then you must spawn it dynamically.
Image or videos are handled in a similar way by the Panoramic Sphere (it renders a texture), please check anyway the sample project.
got it; I know what you mean, it works;
And then I want to use mouse chick an UMG to show a related mesgďź I created the umg and attach to the sphere . IN pawn , I use the TracePanoramicWidget funtion to detect the widget ,but it dectect nothing .
Your code uses the Pawn Control Rotation to detect if youâre looking at the attached UMG widget. This means that the WorldDir parameters reflect the 3D viewing direction of your Player Pawn actor. But since youâre using the mouse click event, I suppose you want to use mouse pointer to select the widget? In this case you must calculate the WorldDir from the mouse pointer, not the Pawn Actor orientation. In this case you could use something like the ConvertMouseLocationToWorldSpace node.

Hello! Th update for UE5.4 has been submitted to Epic. It should be available in a few days.
I have a little question. Can we integrate static mesh/actor/metahuman inside the 360 3d video ? I want to do a animated presentation of a place using a meta human and stereo video.
Thank !
Hello! Yes, integration of 3D assets while playing a 360 video is possible. You can read more about it in the documentation: How to render 3D objects inside the Panoramic Sphere. If you need to render complex assets (like characters) inside the panoramic sphere, I strongly recommend to use the Opaque rendering mode, read more about it at Blend Mode.
Hi, we tried the demo on a quest 2, but the resolution seems very low. Is it possible to use 4096k stereo videos and have it run standalone on the quest 2?
We would also like to combine it with interactable buttons that you can press in front of the user, would that be possible with this plugin?
Thanks in advance!
Hello!
Videos used in the sample application are low-res just to keep the project size small. High-res videos are supported.
With the plugin you can add custom interactive elements to the Panoramic Sphere in two ways:
FYI the first option is simpler to handle.
Hello, Stereo Panoramic Player is now available for UE5.5!
To install it: open the Epic Games Launcher, navigate to Unreal Engine > Library > Fab Library, search the plugin by name, press the Install to Engine button, select the desired engine version and then press the Install button.
