The XML schema for the .scene file format is available in Src/Samples/Libraries/GeoEn2Support/scene.xsd.

`<scene>`

The root <scene> element has the following attributes. The <scene> element may contain any number of <instance>, <probeSet>, <volume>, <autoProbeVolume>, <probeOctree> and <cubeMap> elements.

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`name`	Required	The name of this scene.	String
`paramSetFile`	Optional	The parameter file	File path (default `..\Default.paramset`)
`axes`	Optional	Allows specifying the world coordinate system to be used when loading the scene in GeoRadiosity or GeoViewer. Specify for example `+x+z-y` for the commonly used right-handed y-up permutation.	String (default `+x+y+z`)
`version`	Required	The version of the scene format.	Integer

`<instance>`

Any number of <instance> elements may appear within your <scene>.

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`name`	Required	The name of this instance. Must be unique within the system.	String
`zone`	Optional	The name of the zone which contains this instance. If your world is split into chunks for streaming, use the zone attribute to group instances into a single zone for each chunk.	Positive integer
`instanceId`	Optional	The ID of this instance. Must be unique within the system. If you specify this for one instance in the scene, then you must specify it for all instances. If omitted this will be automatically generated.	Positive integer
`systemId`	Optional	The scene-wide unique name of the system. Use this to explicitly group radiosity instances into a radiosity system.	String
`paramSet`	Optional	The name of the parameter set used for this instance. If this does not exist in the paramset file, a new paramset (using defaults) will be created. May be skipped for `Fully Dynamic` or `Static Set Dressing` objects.	String
`systemGuid`	Optional	Overrides the internal system GUID generated from the system ID and paramset ID. Must be unique within the entire scene.	128-bit hex string
`instanceGuid`	Optional	Specifies the GUID for this instance. This must be unique within the whole scene. If omitted, this is automatically generated from the system and instance names.	128-bit hex string
`guid`	Deprecated	Deprecated: see `systemGuid`.
`geometry`	Required	The name of the `.geom` file that contains the mesh information.	String
`type`	Required	The lighting type for this instance: 'Radiosity' is immovable geometry that is lit with a lightmap. 'Fully Dynamic' instances do not bounce light and are lit by SH probes at runtime and can be moved - it is optional to include these as they do not participate in the precompute. 'Probe Radiosity' instances are lit by SH probes at runtime but still bounce light so they cannot move.	`Radiosity` `Fully Dynamic` `Probe Radiosity` `Static Set Dressing`
`useVolumeTexture`	Optional	For dynamic objects, whether to create and use a volume texture.	Boolean (default `true`)
`lmName`	Optional	If being used in a Baking lightmap, the name of the map. Must be specified on the instance, or on each mesh, or both.	String
`lmType`	Optional	If being used in a Baking lightmap, the type of the map. Must be specified on either the instance or each mesh, not both.	String
`lmAtlas`	Optional	If being used in a Baking lightmap that will be packed, whether to atlas the UVs.	Boolean
`position`	Optional	The location of the instance in world coordinates.	3-element vector
`rotation`	Optional	A quaternion representing the rotation of the instance.	4-element vector
`transform`	Optional	A full matrix specifying translation, rotation and scaling. Should be avoided in favour of the simpler position/rotation attributes, but is required to allow scene extract of arbitrary scenes.	4x4 matrix
`includeInAutoSystemGeneration`	Optional	If set to `false`, this instance will not take part in automatic system generation.	Boolean (default `true`)
`scaleUvsWithInstanceSize`	Optional	Specifies whether the scaling of the transform of this instance should be taken into account when generating the per-instance lightmap UVs (that is, whether the output pixel size specified for this instance should be in world units (`true`) or in local geometry units (`false`).	Boolean (default `true`)
`additionalUvScale`	Optional	Specifies an additional scale that should be applied to the lightmap UVs for this instance (to change the output pixel size). This is applied in addition to any scaling related to the `scaleUvsWithInstanceSize` flag.	Positive decimal (default `1.0`)
clusterSize	Optional	The size of the clusters to generate for this instance, in world space units. If not specified, uses the system cluster size.	Positive decimal

Material Overrides

Any number of <materialOverrides> or <pbrMaterialOverrides> elements may appear within your <instance> elements. They contain a list of per-instance material overrides for a mesh. Note that these overrides are done on a per-property basis, i.e. the final value of any single material property will come from the <materialOverrides>/<pbrMaterialOverrides> if present and the .mats file if not. If no value is specified in either the <materialOverrides>/<pbrMaterialOverrides> or the .mats then the default value will be used. This means that the value of each material property can come from a different source.

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`meshName`	Required	The name of the mesh (as specified in the `.geom` file) for which these material overrides apply.	String
`version`	Optional	The version of the material overrides.	Positive integer

Your <materialOverrides>/<pbrMaterialOverrides> element may contain any number of <material>/<pbrMaterial> elements respectively as specified in the .mats format.

`<probeOctree>`

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`name`	Required	A unique name for this volume.	String

`<probeSet>`

Any number of <probeSet> elements may appear within your <scene>.

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`name`	Required	Unique name of this probeset.	String
`lmType`	Optional	If being used in a baking lightmap, the type of the map. If not specified, uses the system paramset.	String

`<volume>`

Any number of <volume> elements may appear within your <scene>.

Attribute	Usage	Description	Values
`name`	Required	A unique name for this volume.	String

The <volume> element must contain the following sub-elements, with the attributes described:

<resolution> — the number of samples within the volume, as attributes x, y and z. You can usually keep z at 1, if z is up.
<size> — the length of each side of the volume, in world space, as a 3-element vector (attributes x, y and z).
<position> — the world coordinates of the origin of the volume (that is, the corner), as a 3-element vector (attributes x, y and z)
<basis> — the basis vectors specifying the orientation of the volume. These must be orthogonal.
The <basis> element must contain three sub-elements holding 3-element vectors: <U>, <V> and N, each with attributes x, y and z. See the example below.
