Engine • Added DebugView at runtime UI control rendering debugging function. Editor • Support baking high-precision lighting maps to get a better baking effect. 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.

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. Godot lightmapper works with one texture per mesh, so sharing UVs between meshes will not give you more optimization.

Let's hope this implementation will also be of use to others making their own technology or engines, so they can use it as reference or just copy it. Most scenes bake in seconds instead of minutes or hours. Efficiently packs all texture objects in the lightmap to a texture array, to avoid state or material changes during rendering.

Techniques such as using lower-resolution textures, controlling particle spawn rates, and optimizing the lifespan of particles can significantly reduce the load on the GPU. Efficient Use of Textures Textures are a significant component of mobile game visuals, but high-resolution textures can quickly consume memory and processing power.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. Rendering engineers are rare to find, so this can be a starting point. As for DirectX12, it's only relevant for Windows/UWP, so there is no strong incentive for us to support it as a cross-platform engine.
