866<h3 id="parameter-overrides">Parameter Overrides</h3>
867<p><em>Malt</em> uses different performance profiles, allowing you to choose the appropiate performance/quality tradeoff for different tasks.</p>
868<blockquote>
869<p>For example, you may want to use lower quality settings while modeling or animating, higher quality settings for material lookdev, and even higher for the final render.</p>
870</blockquote>
871<p>Each setting can have a different value for each profile.
872There are 3 performance profiles:  </p>
873<ul>
874<li><strong>Default</strong><br />
875Used when the <em>Blender Viewport Shading Mode</em> is set to <em>Render</em> or when there's no active override.<br />
876It's best to set Default settings at a quality level that provides a close result to the final render, while keeping a reasonable performance for viewport navigation.</li>
877<li><strong>Preview</strong><br />
878Used when the <em>Blender Viewport Shading Mode</em> is set to <em>Preview</em>.<br />
879It's best to set Preview settings at a quality level that allows you to edit assets and play animations in real time.</li>
880<li><strong>Final Render</strong><br />
881Used for the final render (<em>F12</em>). For setting that are too heavy for the viewport, but needed for the final render quality.  </li>
882</ul>
883<p>Any setting can be overridden for a specific profile by clicking on the <em>Override</em> button at its right. Otherwise the <em>Default</em> profile value will be used.<br />
