By default, lamps in Blender have shadows enabled. This can cause
|
|
|
|
|
performance issues in Godot.

Lamps are exported using their "Blender Render" settings. When Blender 2.8
|
|
|
|
|
is released, this will be removed and this part of the exporter will change.

Sun, point and spot lamps are all exported from Blender along with many of their
|

properties:

There are some things to note:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- In Blender, a light casts light all the way to infinity. In Godot, it is
|
|
|
|
|
clamped by the attenuation distance. To most closely match between the
|
|
|
|
|
viewport and Godot, enable the "Sphere" checkbox. (Highlighted green)
|
|
|
|
|
- Light attenuation models differ between Godot and Blender. The exporter
|
|
|
|
|
attempts to make them match, but it isn't always very good.
|
|
|
|
|
- Spotlight angular attenuation models also differ between Godot and Blender.
|
|
|
|
|
The exporter attempts to make them similar, but it doesn't always look the
|
|
|
|
|
same.
|
|
|
|
|
- There is no difference between buffer shadow and ray shadow in the export.
