Splataverse NextGenMinimal

Large Unreal-Engine-derived scenes (USD) converted to tiled Gaussian splats (.spz, SPZ v4, degree-0 SH).

scene Gaussians tiles tile edge size notes
OldTown 7.0M 2 128 m 16 MB city block, no instancing
park 441M 36 256 m 3.5 GB 41.6M plain terrain + 2.7M foliage / prop instances
Mountain 178M 16 512 m 1.2 GB 47.8M plain terrain + 0.5M instances

previews/ holds one fly-through video per scene.

Layout

<scene>/manifest.json
<scene>/tiles/tile_xNNN_zNNN.spz
previews/<scene>_flythrough.mp4

manifest.json lists every tile with its origin, local bounds_min/max, Gaussian count and size. World position = tile position + tile origin. Frame: metres, Y-up, right-handed (converted from Unreal's Z-up centimetres). Tiles are ground-plane (x/z) squares; positions are stored relative to the tile origin because SPZ's fixed-point range is about +-2047 m.

How it was made

Meshes are sampled into Gaussians on the surface (splataverse.convert_mesh): 100 Gaussians/m^2 for plain meshes (capped by triangle count) and 50/m^2 for instanced prototypes (12 to 100k per instance). Each PointInstancer prototype is converted once and placed per instance (position, rotation, mean scale). Colours come from the base-colour texture (Omniverse MDL base colour or UsdPreviewSurface); cut-out materials (leaves, grass, fences) drop Gaussians whose texel alpha is below 0.4. Opacity is a constant 0.99. The sky dome is excluded.

Known limitations

  • Landscape layer blending is not reproduced: terrain uses its first albedo layer (Mountain's ground is one uniform texture, OldTown's landscape is flat grey).
  • MDL UV-tiling inputs are ignored.
  • Anisotropic instance scales are approximated by the geometric mean of the singular values (park: 479 instances, Mountain: 8).
  • Colours are base colour only (no lighting, roughness or normal maps); OldTownCleaned, materials and Mountain's bbox variants were not converted.
  • Source license is not stated in the source files; access is gated until the owner confirms terms.
