How can I improve lighting performance in Unreal Engine?

How can I improve lighting performance in Unreal Engine?

To improve lighting performance in Unreal Engine, consider using baked lighting, reducing lightmap resolutions, and optimizing shadow settings.

What is baked lighting and how does it help?

Baked lighting pre-calculates lighting information and stores it in textures, reducing real-time calculations and improving performance.

Are there any specific settings I should adjust for dynamic lights?

Yes, you can adjust the 'Shadow Bias' and 'Max Distance' settings for dynamic lights to enhance performance without sacrificing quality.

Can I use Lumen for better performance?

Lumen is designed for real-time global illumination, but it can be demanding. Ensure your hardware can handle it, or consider using baked lighting for better performance.
