Hi vrMan,

Have you tried enabling Generate Mesh Distance Fields in the Project Settings?
Can you post your DxDiag here?

Thank you!

Tim

This will not enable mesh distance fields. This will only display them once they’ve been generated.

You’ll need to go to Menu > Edit > Project Settings > Rendering > Generate Mesh Distance Fields.

Without this, there is not mesh distance fields to be displayed with the check box you’re enabling for the viewport.

Oops. For some reason that pic didn’t load for me last time. I only saw the Viewport. screenshots. Reload fixed it though.

Can you try this in a blank project with simple objects? I have multiple test projects in 4.8 with Distance Fields enabled that are working on my end. I’m also on Win 8.1.
Also, check the Engine Scalability settings and make sure they are set to EPIC. Although, these should still be visible in the Mesh Distance Fields view even if the scalability is not on EPIC.

Thank you so much Tim
