Add transparency support for LightmapGI Currently when baking lightmaps users have to choose between transparent objects casting shadows as if they were fully opaque, or not casting shadows at all. This has been a major limitation in both the quality of lightmap baking and the ergonomics of the lightmap baking workflow.

We asked them to write a progress report to present what they're working on and the current status. UV2 Texel Density Debug Draw Mode. x CPU lightmapper and adding a new debug draw mode for visualizing the texel density of lightmaps. Debug draw mode for texel density. Soft Shadows (merged). Introduction.

SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). There are also some new debug modes to visualize how SDFGI is working: SDFGI Cascades: Show the world as SDF, helps you understand what voxel sizes are, so you adjust your geometry to work better with those voxel sizes.

Raise errors when accessing deleted objects in debug. Raise errors when accessing deleted objects in debug. but going one step too far: in debug builds in 3.2.3, was still far away, so we tasked Joan Fons ( jfons ), as part of the GSoC program, to write a new CPU lightmapper for Godot 3.x. Rendering: Unified 2D batching.
