Lighting changes in the game as you play, making the environment more interactive. These are pre-made textures that store lighting info for objects that don’t move. This makes the game run faster since it doesn’t need to calculate the lighting all the time. Texture Compression. Post-Processing Effects Bloom.

If you use and enjoy Godot, plan to use it, or want support the cause of having a mature, high quality free and open source game engine, then please consider becoming our patron. The biggest difference with the old lightmapper is that the new one features proper path tracing, which results in better looking lightmaps.

The new 3D engine is outstanding, with many features out-of-the-box that are still not common in other mainstream engines. The new 3D renderer is state-of-the-art, with features rarely see in game engines today, such as: Full principled BSDF. Both indirect light and voxel reflections are provided by this technique.

Use baked lightmaps instead. is not a fallback but a different platform you should target your game for. GIProbes of course don't work.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. You should also notice a significant bump in textures import speed thanks to the etcpak library, and the new multi-threaded importer. Scripts can still be used for additional tweaks, thanks to the new plugin interface.
