This new technique was developed entirely in the open and implemented under our MIT license, so anyone is welcome to use it in their own engines and games. SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). What can it do?

in January 2020, we switched the development focus towards the upcoming Godot 4.0 , which is a major, compatibility-breaking rewrite of the engine's core and rendering. Additional funding will enable us to hire more core developers to work full-time on the engine, and thus further improve its development pace and stability.

Engine • Added DebugView at runtime UI control rendering debugging function. 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. Cocos Creator 3.7.2 x users upgrade.

The RenderGraph used in the Cocos engine is data-driven, collects the required RT resources per frame, and manages them in a unified way. Prioritize the scene to use lightmap to bake AO so that even if HBAO is turned off, the effect is still not bad. The postprocessing pipeline is based on the RenderGraph pipeline architecture.

The two big changes I made were the texturing and the monster placement / player flow. One of my big motivations was to use Makkon's updated textures. Yet as I aligned the 100th trim texture on a brush, I wondered whether my level was also anti-brutalist in its own way. Maybe it wasn't such a bad map after all?

beta just yet as we expect the engine to be unstable until we have more testing done. Throughout the last two years the core of the engine has seen a lot of improvements and refactoring to bring it to the next level in terms of maintainability, reliability, and performance. We don’t recommend migrating large projects to the Godot 4.0

The light voxel is computed on CPU, allowing all types of dynamic lights, then uploaded to a 3D texture (with optional real-time compression, to improve memory usage and performance) used by the shader: Here's how an area that receives no light at all gets lit by indirect bounces!
