Technical Guidelines and Optimization in Spark AR Studio

This guide covers a range to ways to improve the performance of your effect. It also outlines technical guidelines for imported objects and textures.

Learn about:

• Technical guidelines for objects and textures - we recommend not exceeding the limits set here in any effect.
• Reducing the impact of capabilities in your effect.
• Optimizing 3D objects - including objects with baked-in animations and polygon count recommendations.
• Optimizing textures - including 2D texture animation.
• Reducing and optimizing scene objects.
• Reducing the impact of lights in your effects.
• Changes you can make to scripts and graphs in the Patch Editor.

Technical Guidelines

These are the maximum limits for object count, texture resolution, triangle count and height for 3D objects. You should follow these limits below, as well as the optimization guidelines on this page, to strike a balance between quality and performance.

We recommended adding no more than 50 objects to a scene.

The maximum resolution for a texture is 1024 px x 1024 px. Any textures you add to a project that are larger than this will be automatically resized.

When importing 3D objects, please note that:

• The maximum number of vertices per object should be below 20,000.
• The total triangle count for all objects in an effect should be below 50,000.
• The height should be between 1 centimeter (min) and 5 metres (max).
