RTX Direct Illumination lets artists add millions of dynamic lights to game environments without worrying about performance or resource constraints, in real time. RTX Global Illumination provides scalable solutions to compute multi-bounce indirect lighting without bake times, light leaks, or expensive per-frame costs.

One could even suppose that it makes content transfer (levels, features) even easier between the two games. In the early to mid stages of the game, most players will have similar ranks and similar progress. Having the possibility to double it permanently is a great game changer for how to design, create, and release content.

If you use and enjoy Godot, plan to use it, or want support the cause of having a mature, high quality free and open source game engine, then please consider becoming our patron. It was reusing parts of the code for baking GIProbes, and that made it quick but not great in terms of quality. New CPU lightmapper.

Here you can see the Sponza demo model, with baked direct lighting, and the corresponding light map: Note that this first pass is not taking occlusion into account yet. Godot, being an open source game engine, was built with a never-ending wish of adding new features to it. That will be added in the following weeks. Next steps.

It's a long read, so here's a table of contents to easily get to a specific section: New physically based 3D renderer. The new 3D engine is outstanding, with many features out-of-the-box that are still not common in other mainstream engines. Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects.
