How to 3D Gaussian splat from Aerials to Unreal 5 (Free plugin)

Creating 3D urban or architectural environments for visualisation purposes has never been easier. With just an average aerial video and using gaussian splat technology you create photorealistic environments. These not only can be viewed interactively on the web but be brought into games engines as lightweight models which can be cropped and lit.

Thanks for sharing this! I have a quick question, is there a maximum size of Gaussian Splatting we could import using this plugin?

Thanks for the run through - but every time I drag and drop ply files into the content browser UE 5.3.2 crashes. Any suggestions or links as how I might resolve? On Mac OS Monterey 12.7.3

When I add the post-processing volume, it hides the Gaussian splat. I have already checked the 'extent infinite' option. Is there something that I'm missing here? Thanks!

Hello, thanks for the information, I have a question, how do I install the Luma AI plugin in Unreal Engine?

Hi dude,

Thank you for your video 😊

Tell me, can you get drop shadows with spot lights? On my side, there is none at all

Is there a particular setting that needs to be enabled or adjusted to get them?

Thank you for your help 😁
