Normally our Beta 1 release notes summarize all the most exciting changes from the previous dev releases. Game window embedding was implemented to support our recent interactive in-game editing feature. This has been a major limitation in both the quality of lightmap baking and the ergonomics of the lightmap baking workflow.

It's fairly slow and there are still a lot of issues to iron out, but you should be able to start it, edit a project and run it. Rendering: Add optional UV2 logic for lightmapping to primitive shapes ( GH-67975 ).

The biggest challenge of this workflow is not the lightmap itself, but the fact that it should be easy to use (which is Godot's #1 design priority). Lightmapping is a very cheap operation, so it should run fine even on low end mobile. This is an approximate value of the size of a lightmap texel in world coordinates.

supports advanced global illumination techniques such as lightmapping (including SH lightmapping), Voxel GI (which is fully real-time) and SDFGI (which is a single click, open world GI solution). When doing tasks such as shader editing, VFX (particles) or animation, there is a large difference between Godot and engines such as Unreal.

Like in previous years, Godot is participating again in the Google Summer of Code program for its 2022 edition. x CPU lightmapper and adding a new debug draw mode for visualizing the texel density of lightmaps. Previously every LightmapGI node used to store its lightmap atlas in a single large image. Multi-image atlases.
