Helios v1.0.9

With Helios enabled in your scene, you can automatically create beautiful high definition 3D video complete with audio, ready for upload to popular websites like YouTube, VRideo, Milk VR and Facebook.

Helios was created with specially designed FAST shaders that will capture your scene and convert the output images to the proper Equirectangular projection required for most popular 3D/360 video platforms.

F.A.Q
Q) Will Helios work with Timeline and Cinemachine?

A) YES! The new version 1.2.5 adds support for directly working with Timeline and Cinemachine
Q) What is the best way to animate my camera movement?

A) While there is built in support for recording session data in Helios, you will get much smoother and predictable movement data if you use Pegasus by Adam Goodrich. He and I worked together from the beginning to make these two assets very compatible with each other.
Q) Can I use Helios in my game to let my players record?

A)Helios is an editor only recording system, not intended for forward facing games, but rather for game developers to make high quality demo content.

Q)How is Helios different than other 360 recorders?
