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. RTXDI pushes past those limits and allows developers to elevate the visual fidelity in their games.

SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). 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. What can it do?

The biggest difference with the old lightmapper is that the new one features proper path tracing, which results in better looking lightmaps. Also, the new lightmapper brings support for denoising using Open Image Denoise , which results in better-looking lightmaps in the same bake time range. More rendering improvements.

Prioritize the scene to use lightmap to bake AO so that even if HBAO is turned off, the effect is still not bad. ColorGrading is the most cost-effective post-production effect, which can quickly improve the image value of your project. Don’t rely on HBAO too much because it can’t run on low-end machines.

Support for materials with emission also exists, allowing full scene lighting using emissive materials: A great advantage of this technique compared to other implementations (such as Enlighten or any other lightmap-based baking), is that full reflections are possible, with much higher quality than using reflection probes: Finally, dynamic objects get (..)

This basically means you can only bake lightmaps using a single machine. If this sounds like a foreign language to you, don’t worry. You will learn these terms in time the more you use Unity, a Unity camera, and Unity Cinemachine. This limitation is likely to change as Unity developers are working on a solution.

Use baked lightmaps instead. As this back-end is intended to run on the lowest end hardware possible, shaders need to be kept very small. As such all lighting is done by using a forward multi-pass approach. GIProbes of course don't work. GPU-based Particles will not work as there is no transform feedback support.
