How to create a round (or other shape) screen with LED pitch simulation

You can create LED screens of any shape, 3D or 2D using the Free Shape Led Screen Turn any Smode primitive into a LED screen Read More or with an imported 3D model (*.obj, *.fbx etc.) but doing so you won't have access to the pitch simulation.
As you saw, the Smode Planar Led Screen Regular led screen Read More are always in rectangular shape. Anyway, it is possible to add a 2D TextureMask Define a 2D Mask applicable on any 2D Renderer or 2D Modifier Read More over any Content Map This section describes how to set up your content maps and use Content Area Read More or Content Area Organize your content maps Read More and by doing so, you'll change the screen shape inside the stage simulation. In this example I used a Radial mask Mask defined through an ellipse Read More but any kind of mask can be used, such as the polygonal mask.
Here I want my "floor" LED screen to be in a round shape. This LED screen is driven by the "Floor" Content map:


That's why after having masked the content map assigned to the floor screen, the floor screen is now displayed as the content map shape:
