Visuals look drastically different in the editor than they do in game.

Correct. too many variables to get it but I will try to explain as best I can.

  1. Open Fortnite, in graphics settings enable Nanite and make sure DX12 and all settings are like you want them.

  2. Exit Fortnite and open UEFN. IF you are using TODM, make sure you also are using, “Day Sequence Device” this will allow you to control the TODM intensity, trigger volume, sunlight, fog, skylight etc.

  3. “TODM” and “Environment light rig” already has a few skymaps/cubemaps to avoid the black ceilings with an ambient light. you could make your own and replace it if you want to achieve a certain look but I believe only in the “Environment Light Rig”

If you decide to not use the “TODM” or the “Environment Light Rig” I recommend you use the “Lumen Exposure Manager” to set your look for Lumen and Non Lumen looks. These come prewired in the devices.

And if you want to add your own PPV make sure you check the priority on yours versus the prewired ones in the “TODM” or the “Environment light rig” so they override the priority on the devices.

I hope this helps @Tasty_Snak .
