Incorrect mesh deformation when Max World Position Offset Displacement used

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Feb 12, 2025

When Vertex Animated Texture is used to animate a mesh with World Position Offset, often the Max World Position Offset Displacement Material setting must be increased or the Bounds Scale increased, ...

Skeletal Meshes with imported LODs will use the highest LOD when generating Nanite, rather than LOD0

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Jan 14, 2025

In the SkeletalMeshBuilder, Nanite is generated when enabled regardless of the LOD being requested. Since the Nanite enablement parameter is set on all LODs in USkeletalMesh::BuildLODModel and LODs ...

Nanite Skeletal Mesh uses incorrect LOD for raytracing

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Jan 13, 2025

LOD0 for some Nanite Skeletal meshes is used for ray tracing scenes on some platforms  because some FSkinnedSceneProxy are incorrectly considered "always visible" ...

Nanite meshes are lit differently in Actor Colorization view modes than non-Nanite meshes

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Aug 28, 2024

When the Lit > Actor Coloration > Affects Navmesh or other Actor Coloration mode is used, Nanite meshes apply lighting differently than non-Nanite meshes which can make it difficult to use the Actor ...

Material base color is lighter on Nanite meshes when using 16-bit GBuffer

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Aug 6, 2024

The base color is brighter on Nanite meshes than non-Nanite meshes when GBuffer Format is set to "Force 16-bits per channel" (r.GBufferFormat 5) even though the meshes are using the same material. ...

Nanite mesh polygons disappearing when using masked opacity with vertex color in 5.4

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Jul 24, 2024

In 5.4.3, a nanite enabled mesh with a material that takes its vertex color (R) and uses it as the opacity mask output in a masked blend mode material, causes the mesh to have disappearing polygons ...

Integer overflow in NaniteBuilder can lead to an editor crash on certain meshes

UE - Graphics Features - Nanite - Jul 10, 2024

NaniteBuilder uses an int8 type for ExternalEdges and counts adjacency with a int32. The bug stems for the cast to int8 when adding the adjacency count into the ExternalEdges array. The precision l ...
