We are very excited to share out latest Vistech (Visual-Technical) Showcase! This time, we take you from a far flung black hole to a mysterious house in the Pacific North-West. Road trips are often memorable and life-changing, but this particular trip changes the fabric of reality!
Like the last showcase, we wanted to push the boundaries of the engine, while showing that you can also make complex experiences accessible to the broader mobile audience! Be sure to check out the experience here.
Why do we make these Experiences?
We built these showcases to dive deep into our own technologies and show you and our own teams what Studio is capable of!
Roblox is an ever-growing platform, and weâre always looking to improve. By pushing the boundaries of these technologies together, we can see where to improve, optimize, and evolve!
We wanted to give you the assets and documentation to assist you while creating your own amazing experiences!
Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to create memorable experiences on Roblox regardless of how big your team is, or if youâre working solo.
A major part of why we built these was to show developers how they can use some of the most recent features to make their experiences rich and immersive. To that end, the place file itself is free to copy, including all its contents. We will also be releasing endorsed model packs from the experience to use in your own!
House Furnishing Pack
House Props Pack
Landscaping Pack
Material Variants Pack
Lastly, we have also written a How-To doc with useful tips-n-tricks like:
Constructing and iterating on the house, using Packages
We would like to thank everyone in the community for pushing the boundaries in your own games and experiences. The work you do is the reason why we do our own. This world is ours for the making!
It looks just amazing! Even, not everyone powerful computers, can cope with such atmospheric graphics. Thank you for the great work you have done! Keep up the good work!
Superb quality! Canât wait for the day all experiences on Roblox look like this and the previous showcase. Unfortunately, my 2080 Ti struggles to surpass 45 fps, so it looks like weâve still got a ways to go.
The place looks amazing! Iâll have to check it out further.
However when I click the house plan in your post to expand the image it takes me to the create.roblox.com home page.
You may want to edit the post to allow people to expand the picture, or have it send people to the same place as the âHow-Toâ link.
Getting 45+ fps with a GTX 1060 3gb vram & i7-7700 cpu.
A lot more optimization could be done for this showcase but it would partially defeat the purpose of showing the limits of Roblox and where to improve the engine. And that also makes it easier for devs to take use of all the assets and scripts the place provides us.
Great showcase! Thereâs a lot of things you can do with the Roblox engine, and this only proves it.
Unfortunately, even though the the Roblox engine is quite exceptional, with it being super underestimated and unappreciated, it still lacks the optimization it really needs. Playing at max graphics, my device because quite hot to the touch, which prompted me to leave the game (this was in the main showcase). Then I tried with lower graphics (6) and it still overheated.

(Compression due to discourse limitations. The quality is much higher than this):
A very powerful engine with unlimited possibilities, but only lacking within efficiency. Keep it up Roblox!
The Pacific Northwest seems a little cliche as a setting for a haunted house, but everything else is fine.
EDIT: The fact that I have the RTX 3090 is a little concerning as I had as low as 22 FPS.
