Description

  • Enjoy the novelty of browsing existing maps with ray traced baked lighting.
  • Destroy light scenery to change level brightness dynamically in-game.
  • Use the script as a 1st-pass lighting aid when designing new levels. Various configurables for mappers in script file. (This script will never replace the intentional artistic touch of mappers given the constraints of the game engine.🤗)

Version 1.01

1) Optimized performance of functions. Estimated 2.3x speed-up over v1 ! Fingers crossed 🤞 for no regressions.

2) DEBUG ephemera disabled by default. While cool looking, it's a performance drain that won't be in the Player's view the majority of the time.

3) New 'EMITTER_SELECT' option in CONFIG: 'all' (Default), 'scenery_only' or 'surfaces_only'. Best used to lay out the surface-only intensities and then to come back after adding light fixtures to brighten those zones using the 'brighter' blend mode.

4) Can now define the final emitter intensity values in the CONFIG. Off/No modification also allowed.
