You should concentrate on building up your writing portfolio and getting regular game writing work. They’re related, but the difference is this: A game writer’s primary responsibility is to promote the story that the game tells through the scripts they write. Creative writing. Technical writing.

Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. Will write an article about this soon. SDFGI is mostly leak free, unlike VCT techniques which are the most common in use today (like SVOGI/GIProbe/etc). How do you use it? How does it work?

Kristala does feel like a traditional indie Soulslike game in many ways, but we've also lovingly baked in a ton of elements that will appeal to fans of other genres too. Many of our friends who've already had a chance to play early builds of Kristala have lovingly referred to it as Cat Souls. and they're not wrong. Check it out!

We asked them to write a progress report to present what they're working on and the current status. 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).

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. writing shaders is very easy! It's also very easy to use. In Godot 3.0,

When using Cinemachine, you don’t need to know how to write code, though coding is still essential for some components, such as scripting how a user zooms using a mouse wheel, for example. As of yet, there is no distributed baking. This basically means you can only bake lightmaps using a single machine.
