About Page

Render Battle Arena is a site that will regularly host Render Battles.
These render battles will have a theme and you'll have 12 hours to create a render purely from Unreal Engine!
These renders will then be judged the next day and a winner will be announced.

Rules

  • A random keyword will be generated for the theme on the day of the battle - all renders will have to incorporate this theme
  • Assets will be allowed from any source inc sketchfab, TurboSquid, Quixel Bridge etc
  • All projects must be created in Unreal Engine, with the final product being a still render
  • You have until no later than midnight(12am) on the day of the battle to submit your entry-any late entries will not be accepted
  • All renders must be exclusively done in Unreal-no external post applications such as Nuke or Photoshop will be allowed. Instead, use Unreal Engine's PostProcessingVolume detailed here
  • All participants will be allowed to submit no more than 5 potential theme words, with one of those words being a wildcard
  • All judges may submit a single theme word each
  • To prevent the same situation, Shom and Kashif will explain the theme extensively so that EVERYONE understands it
  • A one hour break is factored in to the allocated time- we strongly recommend you take it, although it is up to each participant
  • Help will always be given in the arena to those who ask for it
  • Above all, have fun!

Roadmap!

  • Convert website to use the React Framework.
  • Allow image reposition for profile pictures.
  • Have renders get individual pages which can have comments and potential "improved" versions based off comments.
  • Actually have content on the homepage.
  • Search feature for profiles?
  • Who knows what else, will gladly accept any suggestions for improving this site!
