Godot for AA/AAA game development - What's missing?

Mircosoft Game Dev

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). Mesh streaming : Models are loaded as low detail (few vertices). Mesh resource for each pass of the particle.

GSoC 2022 - Progress report #1

Mircosoft Game Dev

We asked them to write a progress report to present what they're working on and the current status. 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. Project overview and progress.

Godot 4.0 gets SDF based real-time global illumination

Mircosoft Game Dev

SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. Will write an article about this soon. What can it do? How do you use it? How does it work?
