Using Visual Debugging

The Rendering Debug panel provides quick access to the rendering buffers. Visual Debugging helps artists to adjust various elements of the final image (albedo, depth, ambient occlusion, baked lightmaps, etc.).

Albedo	Toggles rendering of the albedo color buffer.
Roughness	Toggles rendering of the roughness value visualized as a grey-scale color from black (the roughness value equal to 0) to white (the roughness value equal to 1).
Metalness	Toggles rendering of the metalness value visualized as a grey-scale color from black (the metalness value equal to 0) to white (the metalness value equal to 1).
Specular	Toggles rendering of the specular value visualized as a grey-scale color from black (the specular value equal to 0) to white (the specular value equal to 1).
Microfiber	Toggles rendering of the microfiber value visualized as a grey-scale color from black (the microfiber value equal to 0) to white (the microfiber value equal to 1).
Opacity World Normal	Toggles rendering of the opacity normal buffer.
Bent Normal	Toggles rendering of the bent normal texture.
Water World Normal	Toggles rendering of the water normal buffer.
Diffuse Lighting	Toggles rendering of the diffuse light buffer.
Direct Lighting	Toggles rendering of the direct light buffer.
Indirect Lighting	Toggles rendering of the indirect light buffer.
Baked Lightmap	Toggles rendering of the baked lightmaps.
Baked Lightmap Checker	Toggles rendering of the baked lightmaps as checked areas.
SSAO	Toggles rendering of the SSAO buffer.
SSGI	Toggles rendering of the SSGI buffer.
Reflections	Toggles rendering of Reflections.
Highlights	Toggles rendering of highlights.
Cubemaps	Toggles rendering of cubemaps.
SSR	Toggles rendering of the Screen-Space Reflections buffer.
Baked Occlusion	Toggles rendering of baked occlusion.
Lighting Information Lost	Toggles rendering of the buffer that stores the data on the pixels that are missing from the previous frame (i.e. are new).
Diffuse Denoise Mask	Toggles rendering of the diffuse denoise mask buffer.
Specular Denoise Mask	Toggles rendering of the specular denoise mask buffer.
Distance	Toggles rendering of the buffer that stores the information about the distance to the nearest surface at every point of the screen. Only Environment Probe with the Raymarching projection renders to this buffer.
Light Meter	Toggles rendering of the Light Meter, a visual debugging tool used to simplify lighting adjustment.
Translucent	Toggles rendering of the translucent buffer.
Curvature	Toggles rendering of the curvature texture encoding the surface cavity and convexity pattern.
Bevel	Toggles displaying the contents of the Bevel buffer.
Opacity Depth	Toggles displaying the contents of the Opacity Depth buffer.
Scene Depth	Toggles displaying the contents of the Scene Depth buffer.
Velocity	Toggles rendering of the Velocity buffer.
DOF Mask	Toggles rendering of the DOF Mask buffer.
Metering Mask	Toggles rendering of the Metering Mask buffer.
Auxiliary	Toggles rendering of the Auxiliary buffer.
Vertex Color	Toggles rendering of geometry that uses the selected vertex color (channel).
Texture Max Pixel Count	Toggles the visualizer of the maximum texture resolution for materials. Each surface is painted with a color that corresponds to the maximum texture resolution of the material assigned to this surface (according to the scale provided).
Texture Screen Density	Toggles the screen texture density visualizer enabling you to estimate the relationship between the maximum texture resolution of the material to the triangle size of the screen: Blue — insufficient resolution Green — adequate resolution Yellow — excessive resolution
Gamma Space	Toggles display of the rendered frame in Linear Space.
