    Engine Plugin
    This product contains a code plugin, complete with pre-built binaries and all its source code that integrates with Unreal Engine, which can be installed to an engine version of your choice then enabled on a per-project basis.

One of the most annoying issues around setting up a stage for Virtual Production is creating accurate 3D models of your physical set up. Now, using the Screen Creator plug in, you can create custom procedurally generated meshes right inside of the nDisplay config editor window in seconds!


It works like any other component inside of your nDisplay config editor. Simply input the size of your LED panels, the number of columns and rows and you are done! There is even the ability to add an angle to match your curve wall and instantly have a accurate mesh for projection inside of your scene.


And don't be concerned if you have multi nodes running multi sections, just set up each node as it's own screen and use the "next position" field to calculate where the next section of screen should sit to maintain constant shape.
