Historically, gaming IP was treated as a secondary asset, with film and TV as the crown jewels. This misalignment often leads to half-baked adaptations that fail to capture the essence of the original game. Levin is realistic about the process and adds that there will always be misses in the gaming-to-film pipeline.

Almost every 3D asset is painted using only one atlas texture. Majority of props work on the same principles as the rest of assets. A baking light map wouldn’t help either (trees are moveable objects – can be hit by cars passing by), so the only reasonable option was to decrease the number of polys.

Anything involving physics should be baked first too. Last, but not least, is the usage of paid assets. In case of doubt, it's best to ask the author of the asset. Additionally, all scripts are being disabled for security reasons. For this reason, I wouldn't use it when deadlines for renders are really close.

This work involved adding support for the FBX 3D asset exchange format to Godot. The first version of our FBX importer was added in Godot 3.2 , and relied on the Open Asset Importer library ( Assimp ). Maya is one of the most used 3D assets creation tools in the game industry, and IMVU needed good support for its FBX files.

One of the common comments Unity users make, especially when it comes to adding Cinemachine as a plug-in, is that the program doesn’t seem to hang or lag, even when you have a number of experiments running, especially while importing assets. Importing assets is not just accurate, it is quick. As of yet, there is no distributed baking.
