Introducing the new "last minute" lightmapper

Mircosoft Game Dev

The solution to these problems is to add support for a more traditional lightmapper (pre-baked light texture). Light is precomputed offline and rendered to a texture, which is then used by the geometry. Lightmapping is a very cheap operation, so it should run fine even on low end mobile. How do I use it? Tweaking Options.

Maintenance release: Godot 3.3.2

Mircosoft Game Dev

Notably, Windows users could experience crashes when baking lightmaps. Import: Print a warning when importing a repeating NPOT texture in a GLES2 project ( GH-48817 ). Import: glTF: Improved error handling around invalid images and invalid meshes ( GH-48904 , GH-48912 ). so here's another maintenance release to fix them.

Godot 4.0 gets SDF based real-time global illumination

Mircosoft Game Dev

SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. What can it do? How do you use it?

GSoC 2022 - Progress report #1

Mircosoft Game Dev

x CPU lightmapper and adding a new debug draw mode for visualizing the texel density of lightmaps. Previously every LightmapGI node used to store its lightmap atlas in a single large image. This meant that the larger scenes might refuse to bake because they don't fit within the size limits of an image. Multi-image atlases.
