Sometimes could happen you need to work with 8K textures in Unreal Engine.
However, when you go to add your 8K textures into the project you’ll see that even if your texture is 8192×8192 both parameters “Maximum In-Game” and “Displayed” have 4096×4096 value.

Default Settings
So, how can we increase the maximum size to 8192×8192?
- Copy the BaseDeviceProfiles.ini file from your Engine folder Engine\Config to your project YourProject\Config and rename it to DefaultDeviceProfiles.ini.
- Open the DefaultDeviceProfiles.ini and replace MaxLODSize=4096 with MaxLODSize=8192
- Start your project. Now you should see “Maximum In-Game” and “Displayed” to 8192×8192.

“Maximum In-Game” and “Displayed” now show 8192×8192
Now you should be able to work with 8K textures inside your project.
Enjoy it!
