Computes and stores baked lightmaps for fast global illumination.

Description
-----------

The **LightmapGI** node is used to compute and store baked lightmaps. Lightmaps are used to provide high-quality indirect lighting with very little light leaking. **LightmapGI** can also provide rough reflections using spherical harmonics if :ref:`directional<class_LightmapGI_property_directional>` is enabled. Dynamic objects can receive indirect lighting thanks to *light probes*, which can be automatically placed by setting :ref:`generate_probes_subdiv<class_LightmapGI_property_generate_probes_subdiv>` to a value other than :ref:`GENERATE_PROBES_DISABLED<class_LightmapGI_constant_GENERATE_PROBES_DISABLED>`. Additional lightmap probes can also be added by creating :ref:`LightmapProbe<class_LightmapProbe>` nodes. The downside is that lightmaps are fully static and cannot be baked in an exported project. Baking a **LightmapGI** node is also slower compared to :ref:`VoxelGI<class_VoxelGI>`.

\ **Procedural generation:** Lightmap baking functionality is only available in the editor. This means **LightmapGI** is not suited to procedurally generated or user-built levels. For procedurally generated or user-built levels, use :ref:`VoxelGI<class_VoxelGI>` or SDFGI instead (see :ref:`Environment.sdfgi_enabled<class_Environment_property_sdfgi_enabled>`).

\ **Performance:** **LightmapGI** provides the best possible run-time performance for global illumination. It is suitable for low-end hardware including integrated graphics and mobile devices.

\ **Note:** Due to how lightmaps work, most properties only have a visible effect once lightmaps are baked again.

\ **Note:** Lightmap baking on :ref:`CSGShape3D<class_CSGShape3D>`\ s and :ref:`PrimitiveMesh<class_PrimitiveMesh>`\ es is not supported, as these cannot store UV2 data required for baking.

\ **Note:** If no custom lightmappers are installed, **LightmapGI** can only be baked when using the Vulkan backend (Forward+ or Mobile), not OpenGL.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_bias:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **bias** = ``0.0005``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_bias** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_bias** **(** **)**

The bias to use when computing shadows. Increasing :ref:`bias<class_LightmapGI_property_bias>` can fix shadow acne on the resulting baked lightmap, but can introduce peter-panning (shadows not connecting to their casters). Real-time :ref:`Light3D<class_Light3D>` shadows are not affected by this :ref:`bias<class_LightmapGI_property_bias>` property.

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_bounces:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **bounces** = ``3``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_bounces** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_bounces** **(** **)**

Number of light bounces that are taken into account during baking. Higher values result in brighter, more realistic lighting, at the cost of longer bake times. If set to ``0``, only environment lighting, direct light and emissive lighting is baked.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_camera_attributes:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`CameraAttributes<class_CameraAttributes>` **camera_attributes**

- void **set_camera_attributes** **(** :ref:`CameraAttributes<class_CameraAttributes>` value **)**
- :ref:`CameraAttributes<class_CameraAttributes>` **get_camera_attributes** **(** **)**

The :ref:`CameraAttributes<class_CameraAttributes>` resource that specifies exposure levels to bake at. Auto-exposure and non exposure properties will be ignored. Exposure settings should be used to reduce the dynamic range present when baking. If exposure is too high, the **LightmapGI** will have banding artifacts or may have over-exposure artifacts.

----

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_denoiser_strength:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **denoiser_strength** = ``0.1``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_denoiser_strength** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_denoiser_strength** **(** **)**

The strength of denoising step applied to the generated lightmaps. Only effective if :ref:`use_denoiser<class_LightmapGI_property_use_denoiser>` is ``true``.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_directional:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **directional** = ``false``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_directional** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_directional** **(** **)**

If ``true``, bakes lightmaps to contain directional information as spherical harmonics. This results in more realistic lighting appearance, especially with normal mapped materials and for lights that have their direct light baked (:ref:`Light3D.light_bake_mode<class_Light3D_property_light_bake_mode>` set to :ref:`Light3D.BAKE_STATIC<class_Light3D_constant_BAKE_STATIC>`). The directional information is also used to provide rough reflections for static and dynamic objects. This has a small run-time performance cost as the shader has to perform more work to interpret the direction information from the lightmap. Directional lightmaps also take longer to bake and result in larger file sizes.

\ **Note:** The property's name has no relationship with :ref:`DirectionalLight3D<class_DirectionalLight3D>`. :ref:`directional<class_LightmapGI_property_directional>` works with all light types.

- :ref:`GenerateProbes<enum_LightmapGI_GenerateProbes>` **get_generate_probes** **(** **)**

The level of subdivision to use when automatically generating :ref:`LightmapProbe<class_LightmapProbe>`\ s for dynamic object lighting. Higher values result in more accurate indirect lighting on dynamic objects, at the cost of longer bake times and larger file sizes.

\ **Note:** Automatically generated :ref:`LightmapProbe<class_LightmapProbe>`\ s are not visible as nodes in the Scene tree dock, and cannot be modified this way after they are generated.

\ **Note:** Regardless of :ref:`generate_probes_subdiv<class_LightmapGI_property_generate_probes_subdiv>`, direct lighting on dynamic objects is always applied using :ref:`Light3D<class_Light3D>` nodes in real-time.

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_interior** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_interior** **(** **)**

If ``true``, ignore environment lighting when baking lightmaps.

- void **set_max_texture_size** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_max_texture_size** **(** **)**

The maximum texture size for the generated texture atlas. Higher values will result in fewer slices being generated, but may not work on all hardware as a result of hardware limitations on texture sizes. Leave :ref:`max_texture_size<class_LightmapGI_property_max_texture_size>` at its default value of ``16384`` if unsure.

- :ref:`BakeQuality<enum_LightmapGI_BakeQuality>` **get_bake_quality** **(** **)**

The quality preset to use when baking lightmaps. This affects bake times, but output file sizes remain mostly identical across quality levels.

To further speed up bake times, decrease :ref:`bounces<class_LightmapGI_property_bounces>`, disable :ref:`use_denoiser<class_LightmapGI_property_use_denoiser>` and increase the lightmap texel size on 3D scenes in the Import doc.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

.. _class_LightmapGI_property_use_denoiser:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **use_denoiser** = ``true``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_use_denoiser** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_using_denoiser** **(** **)**

If ``true``, uses a GPU-based denoising algorithm on the generated lightmap. This eliminates most noise within the generated lightmap at the cost of longer bake times. File sizes are generally not impacted significantly by the use of a denoiser, although lossless compression may do a better job at compressing a denoised image.
