5.6中有什么新功能？ (What’s new in 5.6?)

Progressive Lightmapper (preview) One of the most notable 5.6 features is the new path tracing-based solution, the Progressive Lightmapper. It allows for fast iteration on baked lighting and an ETA. In 5.6 it’s available as a preview feature.

渐进式Lightmapper(预览版) 5.6最著名的功能之一是基于路径跟踪的新解决方案渐进式Lightmapper。 它允许在烘焙照明和ETA上进行快速迭代。 在5.6中，它可用作预览功能。

We wanted to create a solution that not only gives great results for baked lights, but also offers lighting artists an improved workflow, including the ability to iterate quickly and predictably.

我们希望创建一个解决方案，该解决方案不仅可以为烤灯带来出色的效果，还可以为照明艺术家提供改进的工作流程，包括快速且可预测地进行迭代的功能。

In previous Unity releases, changes to the scene required a new bake and the results could only be shown when the bake was done. In 5.0, Enlighten allowed Unity to provide a preview of the final bake using precomputed realtime GI. It gave you an idea of how the bounced light would look, but the final result could deviate from the intermediate one.

在以前的Unity版本中，对场景的更改需要重新烘焙，并且仅在烘焙完成后才能显示结果。 在5.0中，Enlighten允许Unity使用预先计算的实时GI预览最终烘烤。 它使您了解了反射光的外观，但最终结果可能会偏离中间的光。

Changes to lights, emissive materials and albedo values could be previewed straight away. However, changes to geometry still required a rebake, during which you got no feedback.

可以立即预览灯光，发光材料和反照率值的变化。 但是，更改几何形状仍需要重新烘烤，在此期间您没有任何反馈。

When iterating on baked shadows, for example, or the level of bounced lighting, waiting minutes, or even longer, between iterations can be very frustrating. This ultimately reduces the number of iterations one can do in a given amount of time. As a consequence, it limits the quality you can achieve with your baked lighting. With the Progressive Lightmapper you will get almost immediate feedback. A noisy result at first, but it rapidly improves directly in the Scene View, allowing for higher quality and more freedom of artistic expression.

例如，当在烘烤的阴影或灯光反射的水平上进行迭代时，迭代之间的等待时间甚至更长的时间可能会非常令人沮丧。 这最终减少了在给定时间内可以执行的迭代次数。 因此，它限制了您使用烘焙照明所能达到的质量。 使用Progressive Lightmapper，您几乎可以立即获得反馈。 最初会产生嘈杂的结果，但可以直接在“场景视图”中快速改善，从而可以提供更高的质量和更大的艺术表达自由。

The preview label will be removed once we reach feature parity with the Enlighten-based lightmap baking solution. This will happen during the 5.6 cycle. Support for Light Modes, baked LODs, and reduced memory usage is coming as soon as possible.

一旦我们与基于Enlighten的光照贴图烘焙解决方案达到功能对等时，将删除预览标签。 这将在5.6周期内发生。 即将开始支持轻量模式，烘焙的LOD和减少的内存使用。

New Light Modes replace Mixed mode lighting

新的照明模式取代了混合模式照明

Light Modes are replacing Mixed mode lighting, which make it possible to combine baked lighting with real time lighting, including proper handling of baked and realtime shadows. We provide several presets to cover a wide range of scenarios, including fully realtime GI lighting, partially baked lighting, and fully baked lighting. We have added the ability to bake shadowmasks, providing “past realtime shadow distance” shadows. This greatly reduces realtime shadow distance for increased performance. Higher visual fidelity is also achieved as far distance shadows are supported along with realtime specular highlights. Realtime shadow fade out has been added for every light type and rendering path, and the transition to shadowmasks from realtime shadows is seamless.

灯光模式正在取代混合模式照明，这使得将烘焙照明与实时照明相结合成为可能，包括正确处理烘焙阴影和实时阴影。 我们提供了多种预设来覆盖各种场景，包括完全实时GI照明，部分烘焙的照明和完全烘焙的照明。 我们增加了烘焙阴影蒙版的功能，可提供“过去的实时阴影距离”阴影。 这样可以大大减少实时阴影距离，从而提高性能。 通过支持远距离阴影以及实时镜面高光，还可以实现更高的视觉保真度。 已为每种光源类型和渲染路径添加了实时阴影淡出功能，并且从实时阴影到阴影蒙版的过渡是无缝的。
