# Screenshots — visual review
Rendered in-game captures of the current project content, generated by
[`Tools/render_screenshots.sh`](../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
```bash
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](review-00-overview.png)
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](review-01-character.png)
Medium shot, eye height, from the south. The MPFB-generated character with
its baked skin material and A-pose bind.
## review-02-scale-cubes.png — generated 2026-11-07, approval: ☐ pending
![Close three-quarter view of the 1 m scale-test cube row on the gray floor](review-02-scale-cubes.png)
Close three-quarter view of the cube row. Each cube is exactly 1 m — use it
to judge scale against the character.
## 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.
