Nodaro DocsRender Quality
Push an AI image toward a CG render look, such as Ray Tracing, Unreal Engine 5 or Octane Render, or add a quality term. Pick one of 24 render presets.
The Render Quality picker pushes an image toward the look of a specific rendering engine or technique. You choose a preset from its catalog, such as Ray Tracing, Unreal Engine 5, Octane Render, Global Illumination or Ultra Detailed. Nodaro adds tested wording for it to the prompt of every node you connect it to. Use it when you want a computer-graphics result rather than a photographic one. The picker never calls a model, so it costs no credits.
When to use it
- Make a product visualization: Ray Tracing, Octane Render or V-Ray.
- Give a scene a game-engine look: Unreal Engine 5 with Lumen Reflections.
- Describe how light behaves in a 3D scene: Global Illumination, Volumetric Lighting or Photon Mapping.
- Add a quality or resolution term, such as Ultra Detailed, 8K UHD or Raw Photo.
How to use it
Add the picker
Open the node picker and choose Creative Controls › Light & Look › Render Quality.
Choose a preset
Click the node and choose a preset from the list.
Connect it
Drag from the picker's output to the Look input of a Generate Image or Generate Video node. You can also connect it to a Text or Prompt node to use the wording in a longer text.
Run the image node
The preset's wording is added to the end of the prompt when the connected node runs.
Settings
| Setting | What it does |

Tips
- Pair it with a 3D style. Render Quality works best with the 3D Render, Pixar 3D or Low Poly style in Style.
- Finish the frame. Add Post-Process Effects, such as Bloom Glow or Fine Film Grain, to soften a render that looks too clean.
- Keep photos photographic. For a real photo look, leave this picker out and use Photo Genre or Camera / Film Stock instead.
