While occlusion culling is not a silver bullet, it can give big performance improvements in a variety of scenes. Cornell box test using baked indirect lighting. finish line.

using data oriented algorithms to process the culling of objects and both secondary command buffers and automatic batching to efficiently submit the draw primitives. The compatibility backend is based on OpenGL ES 3.0 / OpenGL 3.3 / WebGL 2.0 and is intended to run on very old PC hardware as well as most older (still working) mobile phones.

Improve Culling: Portals (rewrite as polygon-based) and Rooms. Implement post process effects: DOF Blur, Bloom and Tone Mapping. TODO for Milestone #4 (January 2017). Implement Particle Shaders, with support for: Sorting, Collision and Soft Particles. Add Clustered lighting (before this all is forward). Add Layered/Stencil rendering.

Optimize your lighting by using techniques like Levels of Detail (LODs) and culling. Capture lighting at specific points to realistically light moving objects. Additional Techniques Real-time Lighting. Lighting changes in the game as you play, making the environment more interactive. Optimization Techniques Level of Detail (LOD).

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. Various light culling fixes.

No lightmaps or anything of the sort are required, providing a very quick and efficient workflow. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. will bring a new and more powerful animation tree, modern occlusion culling, improved rendering and a GLES 2.0 It's also very easy to use.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Several new optimization techniques are also at your disposal, such as occlusion culling , automatic mesh LOD , and manual HLOD using visibility ranges , made possible by Joan Fons ( JFonS ), and Juan. has been added by Je06jm.
