How do I make a lightmapped prefab?

See Lightmapped Prefab component.

How do I use git/collab/other version control system with Bakery?

First, make sure all machines have the same version of Unity and Bakery.

Unity 2017.1 or newer:

You should commit:

• Any updated assets unrelated to Bakery.
• All updated *.meta files.
• Lightmap textures.

You should not commit:

• Bakery folders.

Pre-2017.1 versions of Unity:

• Also commit ftGlobalStorage.asset.

If UVs don't look right, right click affected models and click Reimport.

How do I share a scene with someone who doesn’t have Bakery installed?

Apart from the scene and its lightmaps you also have to include a few scripts, namely:

• ftLightmaps.cs
• ftLightmapsStorage.cs
• ftLocalStorage.cs
• ftGlobalStorage.cs
• ftModelPostProcessor.cs

How do I bake using my own UVs without any alterations to them?

Check out Lightmap Groups ("Original UV" mode).

How can I trigger a bake via scripting?

There are 3 steps involved:

1. Get the render settings object:

ftLightmapsStorage storage = ftRenderLightmap.FindRenderSettingsStorage();

2. Modify the settings. Full list can be seen in ftLightmapsStorage.cs. As an example, here is how you can limit the amount of bounces and set the output folder:

storage.renderSettingsBounces = 2;

storage.renderSettingsOutPath = "MyFolder";

3. Create Bakery instance, load the settings and bake:

ftRenderLightmap bakery = ftRenderLightmap.instance != null ? ftRenderLightmap.instance : new ftRenderLightmap();

bakery.LoadRenderSettings();

bakery.RenderButton();
