Editor • Support baking high-precision lighting maps to get a better baking effect. When the user turns on high-precision lightmap baking, 16-bit colors are used instead of 8-bit colors, and AO channels are baked separately. Still, the disadvantage is that it will increase the lightmap package.

If we want to support more complex Shaders, such as Blur, Depth of Field, and other effects, we need to work with the code to build it. Prioritize the scene to use lightmap to bake AO so that even if HBAO is turned off, the effect is still not bad. sum += texture(outputResultMap, v_uv1).rgb Use with caution.

Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. No lightmaps or anything of the sort are required, providing a very quick and efficient workflow. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. It's also very easy to use. Still, Godot 3.0 Visual Scripting.

with 17 alpha builds distributed in 2022, and continuous development effort since 2019. The ugly reality of software development is that legacy code builds up really quick and keeping it up to date, ready for new challenges that arise several years down the line takes a lot of effort. It has been a long road to Godot 4.0
