Preface In the last article , Kylin shared how to add your own post-effect Shader in the custom render pipeline in Cocos Creator 3.8. However, based on the BlitScreen solution, we can only write the simplest post-effect Shader. Today Kylin will use Gaussian blur to demonstrate how to write a multi-pass post-effect shader.

Fixed an issue where Mesh objects created through MeshUtils.createMesh caused data anomalies. 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.

using data oriented algorithms to process the culling of objects and both secondary command buffers and automatic batching to efficiently submit the draw primitives. It also has more useful built-in data types such as integer vectors. The core engine has been significantly optimized, especially on the memory and data-oriented areas.

This generally works and looks pretty, but it's quite shader intensive, which makes it not work on mobile or low end GPUs. 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.
