USD is different from our previous format in that it can be edited in different tools, such as Houdini. Unlike previous formats, USD compositions can be used to edit data in a non-destructive manner. USD solves these problems as compositions can be used for nondestructive editing, so that you can smoothly move between multiple tools.

As many of you have probably heard, a new rendering backend is being worked on for Godot. Our goal is to have a modern, clustered renderer that supports everything mainstream engines support, including PBR, global illumination and flexible shader editing. Optimize scene rendering to use less function calls. Implement PBR.

Once upon a time, back when all cutscenes were pre-rendered FMV, it was tremendously expensive to make changes because making any small change required re-rendering the entire video which was enormously expensive. That is generally dependent on how many people are needed to do the work to make those changes.

For interior scenes and close-up exteriors in architecture, Lumen is highly effective and makes rendering easy, comfortable, and quick and offers the highest quality at the same time. One of the reasons is its physically based rendering material system and importing pipeline that makes importing models and projects into Unreal Engine easy.
