RenderSettings

Sets the starting quality level of the framerate manager when EnableFRM is set to true.

When set to true, all scene updates will be given an unlimited budget, regardless of how computationally expensive it may be. This ensures each frame will look as it should, at the cost of a more unstable frame rate.

Sets the graphics quality level in Roblox Studio when EnableFRM is set to false.

When set to true, virtual reality (VR) mode is enabled. This property reflects the same underlying setting as UserGameSettings.VREnabled, so reading or writing it reads or writes that shared value. Defaults to false.

When set to true, the framerate manager (FRM) dynamically adjusts the rendering quality level during gameplay to maintain a stable framerate. When set to false, the quality level is fixed at RenderSettings.EditQualityLevel and no automatic adjustment occurs. Defaults to true.

The AutoFRMLevel property reports the current quality level that the FRM has assigned when this property is enabled.

Controls how materials are written during .obj export from Studio. When set to true, parts that share the same material appearance are merged into shared material definitions in the exported .obj file, reducing material count. When set to false, each part receives its own independent material definition. Defaults to false.

Determines how the framerate manager (FRM) manages rendering quality using a FramerateManagerMode value. When set to FramerateManagerMode.Automatic, the engine decides whether to enable FRM quality adjustment based on context (typically enabled during gameplay). When set to FramerateManagerMode.On, the FRM is always active. When set to FramerateManagerMode.Off, the FRM does not adjust quality and block culling is forced to the lowest-quality distance setting. Defaults to FramerateManagerMode.Automatic.

Determines which graphics rendering API Roblox uses on startup, specified as a GraphicsMode value. When set to GraphicsMode.Automatic, the engine selects the best available backend for the current platform. Available options are platform-dependent; for example, GraphicsMode.Metal is only available on macOS and GraphicsMode.Direct3D11 is only available on Windows. If an unsupported mode is selected, the engine silently falls back to GraphicsMode.Automatic. Defaults to GraphicsMode.Automatic.

Because the graphics API is initialized at startup, changing this property only takes effect after restarting Roblox Studio.

The size in bytes of the mesh cache. Defaults to 32 MiB.

Determines the mode for the selection of detail levels for mesh parts. For a good balance between performance and fidelity, this should be set to MeshPartDetailLevel.DistanceBased (default), which is what the client uses.

Note that the MeshPart.RenderFidelity needs to be set to RenderFidelity.Automatic for this to work. If you set it to RenderFidelity.Precise, you will always see the higher resolution version and the MeshPartDetailLevel value will be ignored for that MeshPart.

If EnableFRM is set to true, this property controls the quality level in Roblox Studio.

When set to true, Roblox Studio will automatically reload changes that are made to files in Roblox's content folder.

When set to true, a wireframe of polygons will be shown on all PartOperation objects.

If set to true, renders bounding boxes around each individual rendered entity in the scene.

Studio only. Determines which debug rendering visualization is drawn over the viewport, using a value of ViewMode. Defaults to ViewMode.None, which disables the overlay. Other values enable overdraw visualizations for geometry complexity, transparency, or decals.

Returns the total number of quality levels available in the rendering quality system. Quality levels are numbered from QualityLevel.Automatic (0) through QualityLevel.Level21 (21), so this method returns 22. Use GetMaxQualityLevel() - 1 to obtain the highest numeric quality level.
