Realistic Screens

The premise of this product is to emulate the behaviour of screen panels when you get up close. As in you'd first see outlines between pixels, then when you get even closer you'd see the subpixels themselves. This product does not try to emulate the behaviour of viewing angles nor does it try to emulate the full effect of color distortions nor screen distortions as these effects would make them unusable.

Each screen can be configured separately with screen mesh, screen type, transparency, channel swizzles, brightness, light bleed through (only affects screen types that have bleed through), specular, roughness, and the fade timings (based on the on-screen size of the subpixels).

It is recommended to use the ElectraPlayer plugin that comes with UE5 for proper media playback, but it is not a forced requirement.

Found any issues or have any questions?
