ProjectApplication	Application identity: what the player's operating system sees.
ProjectAssets	Asset generation, off unless the project opts in.
ProjectAssetsConcept	The concept step (2D concept images), opt in.
ProjectAssetsGeneration	The model generator (3D generation), opt in.
ProjectAssetsMusic	The music generator, opt in.
ProjectAssetsSpend	Spend controls for generation.
ProjectAssetsStyle	The project's art style for generated assets.
ProjectAudio	Project audio defaults: the shape of a scene's meta.audio mixer fields.
ProjectEffectClass	How one class of effect gives way under load.
ProjectEffects	How a project's effects give way under load: its classes and its budget.
ProjectEffectTiers	One value per quality tier.
ProjectExport	Export settings shared by every platform.
ProjectGraphics	Project graphics defaults.
ProjectManifest	`argus.project.json`: versioned project settings, separate from any scene.
ProjectPhysics	Project physics defaults: the shape of a scene's meta.gravity and meta.physics.
ProjectPlugin	A plugin this project loads, with its settings.
ProjectRender	Renderer settings for the whole project.
ProjectRenderQuality	HD quality: a preset plus per-knob overrides (docs/status/hd-quality.md).
ProjectRenderQualityCustom	A named set of HD quality knobs: the Custom preset, a base preset plus the knobs it changes.
ProjectRenderQualityPlatform	One platform's layer over render.quality (D19): what a game exported for, or run on, that platform starts from.
ProjectRenderShaders	User shader settings of the project.
ProjectRenderXr	Rendering in VR, for every renderer.
ProjectSettings	Settings that are about the game rather than about the application.
ProjectUiSettings	Game UI settings for the whole project.
ProjectWindow	Initial game window.
RenderAo	Optional contact ambient occlusion on the standard renderer: darkens the scene where surfaces meet (a prop on the ground, a wall's foot, a kart over the road), from the depth buffer.
RenderBloom	Optional bloom on the standard renderer: a soft glow around bright pixels (emissive surfaces, the sun on metal).
RenderExposureAdaptation	Partial adaptation of HD's auto exposure: how far a dark scene is brightened.
RenderLocalExposure	HD's local exposure: pulls bright regions and lifts dark ones so a sky and a room read in one view.
RenderLook	The scene's colour grade: a look preset and overrides on top of it.
RenderLookHueSaturation	Saturation by hue (a hue-versus-saturation curve): each field multiplies the colour of pixels of that hue, 0..2 (0 greys it out, 1 leaves it, 2 doubles it; default 1), joined linearly between red 0, orange 30, yellow 60, green 120, aqua 180, blue 240, purple 270 and magenta 300 degrees.
RenderLookLut	A 3D colour LUT (.cube) with its blend and the space it maps.
RenderLookRange	Contrast and saturation for one tonal range, multipliers of the look's own contrast and saturation.
RenderLookRanges	Contrast and saturation per tonal range (shadows, midtones and highlights colour correction): a pixel's range comes from its exposed scene-linear luminance (shadows fade out from 0 to shadowsMax, highlights fade in from highlightsMin to 1, midtones are the rest).
RenderLookWheel	A colour wheel: a hue, how far toward it (amount) and a brightness (luminance).
RenderScreenEffect	One full-screen effect of a scene: a `kind: post` shader and the values for its params and textures.
SceneInput
SceneRender
TouchBinding	The touch source an action reads: a screen region and what a finger in it does.
TouchRegion	A rectangle of the screen in normalised coordinates (0..1 on each axis, origin top left), so one region fits every resolution and orientation.

RenderExposureMode

Since 0.7

How HD picks exposure: manual uses the fixed exposure value; auto meters the frame with eye adaptation, and exposure then shifts the result by log2(exposure) stops.

RenderLookLutSpace

Since next

display: sRGB-encoded display values after the tonemapper and the wheels, as a grading tool exports a LUT (Rec.709 / sRGB in and out; not applied to an HDR output).

Values

RenderLookPreset

Since 0.7; changed in next

A named colour grade, HD's look presets: natural (no grade), natural-plus, cinematic, bright-day, warm-afternoon, overcast, night, stylised.

TouchMode

Since 0.6

What a touch region does: stick (a virtual stick) and drag (finger travel, like the mouse's delta) are two-component axes; button (held while a finger that landed in the region is down) and tap (one tick on a quick lift without travel) are buttons.
