Consider making light map rendering less automatic and thus not need to disable culling the frame they're rendered. #760

Closed bryanedds closed 3 months ago

bryanedds commented 3 months ago

Like Navigation, perhaps light probe light maps should be created more explicitly, such as with a specific render message carrying all of its needed render info, similar to how a shadow render pass is done. The engine would have to have more specific knowledge of light map rendering, but I think that's fine. Either that, or some other design change to make rendering them more efficient.

The way they work currently might be a case of declarative being taken a bit too far.

Stapling #754 to this.

Done and actually still manages to be automatic from a user perspective.
