509 stars

Best use case

unreal-nanite is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Unreal Engine Nanite skill for virtualized geometry, mesh streaming, and LOD-free workflows.

Teams using unreal-nanite should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.

When to use this skill

  • You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.

When not to use this skill

  • You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
  • You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Unreal Nanite Skill

Nanite virtualized geometry system for Unreal Engine.

## Overview

This skill provides capabilities for implementing Nanite virtualized geometry in Unreal Engine, enabling high-fidelity assets without traditional LOD workflows.

## Capabilities

### Mesh Configuration
- Enable Nanite on meshes
- Configure fallback meshes
- Handle displacement
- Manage precision settings

### Streaming
- Configure streaming pool
- Handle mesh streaming
- Manage memory budgets
- Optimize loading

### Integration
- Combine with Lumen
- Handle materials constraints
- Integrate with World Partition
- Manage visibility

### Optimization
- Configure cluster culling
- Handle overdraw
- Manage triangle budgets
- Profile Nanite performance

## Prerequisites

- Unreal Engine 5.0+
- SM5+ capable hardware
- High-poly source meshes

## Usage Patterns

### Enabling Nanite

```
1. Import high-poly mesh
2. Open Static Mesh Editor
3. Enable Nanite in Details panel
4. Configure settings
5. Apply to instances
```

### Settings Configuration

```
Nanite Settings:
- Position Precision: Auto
- Percent Triangles: 100%
- Fallback Relative Error: 1.0
- Displacement: Enabled for terrain
```

## Best Practices

1. Use Nanite for hero assets
2. Keep fallback meshes
3. Monitor GPU memory
4. Test on target hardware
5. Use Nanite Visualizations
