Added BakedLightmap.use_hdr and BakedLightmap.use_color properties
that can reduce the flie size of lightmap texture at the expense of quality.
Changed the denoiser to work in a single buffer, reducing RAM
usage. Also added the `-mstackrealign` flag in the denoiser compilation
for MinGW builds. This flag helped fix a bug in Embree, so I want to see
if it will help fix GH #45296.
- Fix crash when a ray hits a texel with a UV2 coordinate exactly
equal to 1.0.
- Take BakedLightmap extents into account.
- Clear capture data between bakes.
- Fix minor issues with seam correction.
Compiling with latest clang on macOS produced this error: use of undeclared identifier 'rand'.
Fixesgodotengine/godot#45342
This file is not present in 4.0/master.
- Fix Embree runtime when using MinGW (patch by @RandomShaper).
- Fix baking of lightmaps on GridMaps.
- Fix some GLSL errors.
- Fix overflow in the number of shader variants (GLES2).
Completely re-write the lightmap generation code:
- Follow the general lightmapper code structure from 4.0.
- Use proper path tracing to compute the global illumination.
- Use atlassing to merge all lightmaps into a single texture (done by @RandomShaper)
- Use OpenImageDenoiser to improve the generated lightmaps.
- Take into account alpha transparency in material textures.
- Allow baking environment lighting.
- Add bicubic lightmap filtering.
There is some minor compatibility breakage in some properties and methods
in BakedLightmap, but lightmaps generated in previous engine versions
should work fine out of the box.
The scene importer has been changed to generate `.unwrap_cache` files
next to the imported scene files. These files *SHOULD* be added to any
version control system as they guarantee there won't be differences when
re-importing the scene from other OSes or engine versions.
This work started as a Google Summer of Code project; Was later funded by IMVU for a good amount of progress;
Was then finished and polished by me on my free time.
