Notably, Windows users could experience crashes when baking lightmaps. Physics: Fix ragdoll simulation when parent was readded to scene ( GH-48823 ). was thus subject to this crash when baking lightmaps. A few regressions made their way among the many bug fixes of 3.3.1, API documentation updates.

Nanite intelligently streams and processes only the detail you can perceive, largely removing poly count and draw call constraints, and eliminating time-consuming work like baking details to normal maps and manually authoring levels of detail. This allows users to focus less on tedious tasks and more on creativity.

Traditionally, most lighting is baked offline, computing just a handful of “hero” dynamic lights at runtime. RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) RTXGI provides developers with a scalable solution for multi-bounce indirect lighting without light leakage, time-intensive offline lightmap baking, or expensive per-frame costs.

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. Multiple Bounces: Enable a feedback loop, which simulates multiple bounce lighting. What can it do?
