Hi all

In fact, more than just light baking, this very precise feature is amazing :

Shadows, occlusion (not sure) and light impact (and what else?) are computed on the GPU and the result is baked on the various objects. On my graphic card, it takes about 5 seconds. If i uncheck flash’s hardware acceleration i takes 322sec… 64 times more…

I would love to see that in away3D!

Yup, if it’s not possible in Away3D currently this would be useful. Trading an increased loading time for more runtime performance can be good depending on project.

Worth noting that this is a Flare3D demo, so it’s made by evil competitors !
