The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. And for more advanced use cases, there is now also TextMesh to generate 3D meshes from font glyphs, so you can add Word Art to your scenes ;). and backported to 3.5.

This meant that the larger scenes might refuse to bake because they don't fit within the size limits of an image. This will be a draw mode that previews the texel density of lightmaps (without actually (re)baking them). Project overview and progress. Multi-image atlases. How do you show the texel density visually?

After working with the hair cards for awhile, it dawned on Pete that he could actually create a proxy texture that would easily troubleshoot the orientation of each card. During his first official pass, Pete was finally able to make the textures and shaders work in tandem. Convenient, right? 3D Environmental Design.

Use baked lightmaps instead. Godot now supports 2D meshes , which can be used from code or converted from sprites to avoid drawing large transparent areas. CSG tools have been added for fast level prototyping, allowing generic primitives and custom meshes to be combined via boolean operations to generate more complex shapes.

Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. Still, this workflow is easy and efficient as 3D objects get a second set of UVs generated on import, and baking works with instantiated meshes, scenes and even GridMaps. Both indirect light and voxel reflections are provided by this technique.

Instead of computing the amount of light that reaches a certain surface every frame for every light source, we precompute all this information and store it in a single texture. The process of generating light map texture coordinates takes a while, and it was being triggered on every scene reimport.
