Screenshots — visual review

Rendered in-game captures of the current project content, generated by Tools/render_screenshots.sh. The PNGs in this folder are never committed (.gitignore excludes everything here except this README) — they exist on disk so a human can review the game's appearance after every change that could affect it. The ![...] embeds below resolve locally next to this file.

How to regenerate

Tools/render_screenshots.sh

This rebuilds Game/GigLine/Content/Test/ReviewMap.umap from the current content (floor, key light, sky, MPFB character, the three 1 m scale cubes), runs the game on it in -game mode, lets AGigLineShotActor walk its fixed camera list and capture, and copies the PNGs here. Takes about a minute.

Each screenshot is embedded below with its description and approval state. After reviewing, tick the approval checkbox so agents know whether the look is accepted or needs work.

Wide overview from the south-west: character at origin, three 1 m calibration cubes in a row at 4 m north, gray floor, key light and sky

Wide shot from the south-west, elevated. The review scene as a whole: character at origin, three 1 m calibration cubes in a row at 4 m north, gray floor, one key light plus fill sky.

Medium eye-height shot of the MPFB-generated character from the south, A-pose with baked skin material

Medium shot, eye height, from the south. The MPFB-generated character with its baked skin material and A-pose bind.

Close three-quarter view of the 1 m scale-test cube row on the gray floor

Close three-quarter view of the cube row. Each cube is exactly 1 m — use it to judge scale against the character.

review-03-first-person.png — generated 2026-11-07, approval: ☐ pending

Third-person shot from a player's eye line looking across the review floor: the MPFB character at origin (spawn point), one red cube behind it, sky and horizon behind

New shot for the first-person player work. Camera is at 165 cm — the player's eye height — looking from behind and slightly south-east of the spawn point. It shows where the player lands (the character stands at origin, which is also the default spawn) and how the capsule/camera relate to the 1 m cubes.

What changed in the game since the last review: the project now has a first-person AGigLineCharacter (1.75 m capsule, 1.60 m eye camera, 4 m/s walk, Enhanced Input with WASD + mouse look + jump) wired as the default pawn by AGigLineGameModeBase. Nothing visible from these cameras should differ: the review map spawns its own pawn-free staging, so this shot is the reference for the new pawn's position and eye height, not of the pawn itself.

Not shown, needs a human check: walking, mouse look and jump can only be judged interactively. Launch the editor, press Play on Test/ReviewMap, and confirm W/A/S/D move in the expected directions, the mouse looks around with no acceleration, and Space jumps once per press.

What to look for

  • Character: proportions, bind pose, skin material readability.
  • Scale cubes: each is exactly 1 m — use them to sanity-check anything whose size looks off.
  • Lighting: one warm key light and fill sky; this is the temporary review rig, not the 0.1.0 daytime look.

Known cosmetic issues in the review scene

  • The gray floor material renders with a speckled pattern instead of flat gray — suspect the Constant3Vector wiring in Tools/ue_build_review_map.py. Cosmetic only; the floor exists so shadows and scale read correctly.
  • The horizon shows a black band below the sky atmosphere (no distant ground plane). Expected in the empty review scene.

Conventions

  • review-NN-name.png names are produced by AGigLineShotActor (Game/GigLine/Source/GigLine/GigLineShotActor.h); the camera list lives in Tools/ue_build_review_map.py.
  • Add or adjust shots there when new content needs review, then update this README's table in the same change.
  • Agents: see the Visual review section in AGENTS.md.
