Luoshuang's GPULightmass

Any ideas why this might be happening?

Try further increasing TDR to something like 300, 400 etc.

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if anyone has managed to set up a swarm so that I can bake the Lightmass with multiple GPU’s.
If so please let me know because when I try this the swarm status of my client PC stays Unassigned.

I also have a small feature request. It would be great if you could bake the lightmass of only the selected item. So that I don’t have to recalculate everything.

It looks like unassigned swarm agent is a swarm bug rather than related to GPULightmass; Selective lightmap baking is something I want to support, but not very soon.

@Guillermo_Leal

, Amazing stuff !
Do you plan to support IES ligths in the near future?

IES support wont come in the near future since I’m still working on the core sampling algorithm.

@Guillermo_Leal

, On the first page you said that the world settings are not taken into account with the exception of the number of bounces but you also suggest using the Production setting for the lighting quality. Can you explain what each of the settings (Production, High, Medium, Preview.) does to the calculation and quality?.

Also what about the BaseLightmass.ini file, is there anything there we can tweak there?

Speaking of the ini file, perhaps you can add gpu specific settings there that we can tweak to control the quality/speed settings while the gui is available?

Thanks,

Since direct lighting is still calculated on CPU, they will be affected by legacy Lightmass settings. That’s the reason why I suggest higher settings to avoid issues unrelated to GPULightmass.
Currently no setting parameters are exposed in inis.
