Luoshuang's GPULightmass

Can you make build for 5.1.1 ?

I have updated the original post to 5.1.1 as well
’s GPULightmass - Development / Rendering - Epic Developer Community Forums (unrealengine.com)

Remember this is all experimental and not for production.

Also see the update needed for your Nvidia drivers

IMPORTANT
When using the GPUlightmass 5.1 code with 5.1.1 BINARY
the follwing needs to be added at the bottom of

C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.1\Engine\Config
BaseLightmass.ini
Using Notepad

[DevOptions.GPULightmass]
NumPrimaryGISamples=32
NumSecondaryGISamples=16
FireflyClampingThreshold=1000.0


If you dont do this 5.1.1 will crash possibly with an obscure error

Fatal error: A required key was missing from BaseLightmass.ini.  This can happen if BaseLightmass.ini is overwritten with an old version.
GConfig->GetInt(TEXT("DevOptions.GPULightmass"), TEXT("NumPrimaryGISamples"), Scene.GPULightmassSettings.NumPrimaryGISamples, GLightmassIni) failed 
 at C:\Engine\Source\Editor\UnrealEd\Private\Lightmass\Lightmass.cpp:2481

I have problem when using the 5.1 GPU code on 5.1.1 BINARY as well. I CANNOT make this addition to the original 5.1 code file, because I dont own/support the code
