Definition:

A Scene is the blueprint of your virtual space registered in VIVERSE Create. One Scene can generate multiple identical World.

A World is your designated virtual space in VIVERSE Create, accessible via a unique URL.

VRAM Classification and Performance Recommendations

To ensure consistent performance and platform compatibility, our system classifies content based on VRAM usage per world and provides platform-specific performance recommendations. Developers should optimize their content to target the desired range of supported devices.

VRAM Usage Categories

The system automatically assigns a performance boundary level based on the amount of VRAM your world uses:

Boundary Level	VRAM Usage
Low	≤ 500 MB
Medium	500 MB and ≤ 800 MB
High	800 MB and ≤ 2 GB
Very High	2 GB

Worlds marked Very High will trigger a warning popup for users, indicating that the content is intended for high-end PCs only.

Platform Recommendations

Each boundary level maps to a set of recommended platforms, reflecting performance expectations:

Boundary Level	Recommended Platforms
Low	PC / iOS / Android / HMD (VR Headsets)
Medium	PC / Android
High	PC
Very High	PC (High-End only, with warning popup)

Developer Guidance

• Targeting Wider Compatibility: Aim to keep VRAM usage under 500 MB to support the broadest range of devices.

• Optimizing for Android or iOS: Stay within Low or Medium boundary levels to ensure mobile device compatibility.

• High-End Visuals: Worlds exceeding 800 MB VRAM should be optimized for PC-only audiences.

• Exceeding 2 GB VRAM: Consider splitting large scenes, using LODs, or reducing texture resolutions to avoid user warnings.

For best results, monitor your world’s VRAM usage regularly during development and test on target platforms.
