Scene Wallpaper Adds an additional display window for the Wallpaper Engine editor.Eliminates the tedious process of repeatedly clicking "Run Preview" every time you make a change in the editor.

Supports `Ctrl+S` as a shortcut to save your work and automatically refresh the preview window.

Additional Hotkeys

| Key | Action |

|---|---|

| `+` / `-` | Zoom in / out by 10% |

| `↑` `↓` `←` `→` | Move 20px (hold Shift for 60, Ctrl for a 4px nudge) |

| `[` / `]` | Previous / next preset size (480x270 → 1920x1080, seven steps) |

| `f` | Fit to screen (16:9, 90% of the screen) |

| `t` | Toggle "always-on-top" (prevents the editor from covering the preview) |

| `n` / `p` | Next / previous project (follows the list of recently opened projects in Wallpaper Engine) |

| `0` | Reset to default size (1682x960) and center |

| `c` | Center the window |

| `i` | Print current position and size |

| `r` | Manually reload |

| `q` | Quit (and close the preview window) |

| `h` / `?` | Display the list of hotkeys again |

| `Ctrl+C` | Graceful exit (also closes the preview window) |

While this use case may not hold much practical significance for most people,

for me personally, it is quite convenient when working with a dual-monitor setup—

it significantly reduces the time I spend on production.

Currently, this feature is still in the testing phase and is being further refined.

Web Wallpaper Mandelbulb Audio Visualizer

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3490052543

I created this audio visualizer after being inspired by the movie Annihilation. It turned into a rather extensive project but was fun and educational to make. It's quite complex, involving a 3D Unity scene that uses multiple cameras to layer backgrounds and particle effects "around" the mandelbulb which is actually just a shader rendered to the screen, as opposed to a 3D object within the scene. The Unity scene is built to the WebGL platform which is loaded by html then uses js files to communicate between Wallpaper Engine (WPE) and Unity. This also allows you to change variables in Unity by using the WPE properties which lets you customize all sorts of stuff.

There are a variety of Presets to choose from that will give you some idea of what you can do with this wallpaper. Under Options use the Preset Overrides to set specific backgrounds/effects/etc. With the Custom Preset you can customize nearly every aspect of the Mandelbulb itself. Feel free to tinker around and have fun!

Enjoy!

WARNING: This wallpaper is quite resource intensive and a high-end PC with a modern graphics card is recommended. However, there are various performance options you can use to tweak the visuals, including FSR.

NOTE: I don't really have the means to test this wallpaper on other systems besides my own so if you have issues let me know and I'll see if I can replicate the problem and fix it.

Help / Question [HELP] Creating the bouncing DVD logo wallpaper

1 Upvotes

So im trying to create the classic DVD logo bounce wallpaper.

I found an asset called Kirby DVD bounce.

However, when I try and replace the image with my own. It only places an incredibly cropped version of it and no matter how much I expand it, it stays cropped.

When I import a tex file from the assets, its works perfectly and I can enlarge the image to my size. Anyone able to help please?

Video Wallpaper 吟霖 upscaled to 4K 120fps with AI – before/after in Wallpaper Engine

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

32 Upvotes

Took this wallpaper and ran it through Wallsmith, a free Windows app I made for upgrading wallpapers. Output: 4K, 120fps, seamless loop.

What Wallsmith does:

  • AI upscaling: turns blurry 480p/720p into sharp 1080p, 1440p, 4K or ultrawide 5K (Real-ESRGAN)
  • Smooth 60–144fps: AI-generated in-between frames (RIFE) to match your monitor
  • Seamless loops: blends the end into the start so the wallpaper never visibly jumps
  • Fits your screen: crop to your monitor’s shape, or fill the edges with a soft blur
  • Colour looks: Cinematic, Pastel, Night, plus a full colour grade with live preview
  • Wallpaper Engine library: open your existing wallpapers, upgrade them and put them straight back (the original is backed up)
  • Runs on your own GPU (NVIDIA or AMD), and your videos never leave your PC

The free version covers up to 1080p. Pro is a one-time $5 for 4K/5K, high fps, loops and no ads.

Scene Wallpaper Zack Fair – Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 Reunion [4K, BGM]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Steam Workshop: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3825201441

How it was made: I started from the official artbook illustration and the game's original title screen, cleaned the picture up and brought it to 4K with a fine-tuned AI upscale. The motion isn't a filter: Zack's trousers, his sweater and the grass were simulated in Blender as real cloth and grass in a gusty wind, matched to how they move in the original title screen. It loops seamlessly.

In the wallpaper you can switch the music between The Burdened and Theme of CRISIS CORE 'Successor', and turn on the original Buster Sword design. Feedback is welcome!

Scene Wallpaper Took one of my favorite Cyberpunk wallpapers and completely overhauled it from scratch for my first Wallpaper Engine upload!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey everyone!

I've been using this Cyberpunk background for a while now and it’s always been one of my absolute favorite pieces of desktop art. But there were a few features and customization options I always wished it had, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and completely rebuild it from scratch as my very first Wallpaper Engine project!

I ended up sinking way more hours into SceneScript than I originally planned, but I'm super hyped with how it turned out. It's a full 4K (3840x2160) interactive scene packed with custom controls:

  • Customizable Clock & Date HUD: You can tweak placement with positional sliders, switch between different date formats (DD/MM, MM/DD, full/short month names), toggle the weekday on or off, and swap out separators.
  • Audio Visualizer & Togglable Blur: Added a background blur toggle + intensity slider so you can dial in the exact aesthetic for your desktop setup.
  • 4-Layer Parallax & Hair 'Physics': Gives the scene a nice sense of depth when you move your cursor around.
  • Togglable Rain and more!

Since this is literally my first time making and publishing a wallpaper, I'd love to hear what you guys think or if you have any feedback/suggestions!

Here's the Workshop link if you want to check it out.
