Voxel Probe
Voxel Probe is a light source which provides static voxel lighting and shading on an object inside Voxel Probe by using a prebaked 3D lighting map. Voxel Probe stores information on indirect lighting (light bounces) only, no direct lighting data at all. Unlike Environment Probe, Voxel Probe provides physically accurate light spreading inside interiors and outdoor static scenes but supports diffuse reflections only.Voxel Probe是通过使用预烘焙的3D光照贴图在Voxel Probe内的对象上提供静态体素照明和阴影的光源。Voxel Probe 仅存储有关间接闪电(光照反射) 的信息,根本不存储直接光照数据。与Environment Probe不同,Voxel Probe提供物理精确的光线在室内和室外静态场景中传播,但仅支持漫反射。
Also, Voxel Probe is great solution for shading dynamic objects within static areas.同样,Voxel Probe是一个很好的解决方案在静态区域内对动态对象进行着色。

Overview概述#
Voxel Probe provides box volume composed of voxels and contains parameters used for light baking inside it.Voxel Probe提供由体素组成的盒子体积,并包含用于轻度烘烤在里面。
Voxel Probe projects a 3D lighting texture on objects inside it thus providing indirect lighting simulation.Voxel Probe在其内部的对象上投影3D照明纹理,从而提供间接照明模拟。
The texture should have an appropriate resolution which is calculated the following way:纹理应具有适当的分辨率,该分辨率可通过以下方式计算:
Resolution = Width × Height × (Depth × 6)分辨率=宽度×高度×(深度×6)
Each pixel of a texture defines the illuminance of a certain voxel face.纹理的每个像素定义某个体素面的照度。
The inner space of Voxel Probe is visualized using spheres. These spheres are used to show the illumination in each voxel from all directions. The visualizer is disabled by default. To enable it, use the Helpers menu in Editor Viewport:使用球体可视化Voxel Probe的内部空间。这些球体用于显示各个体素各个方向的照明。可视化器默认情况下是禁用的。要启用它,请使用“编辑器”视口中的Helpers菜单:
Voxel Probe Visualizer settings:Voxel Probe展示台设置:
- Grid Size — number of spheres in every row/column, the value from 7 to 40.Grid Size —每行/每列的球体数量,值从7到40。
- Sphere Scale — size of the visualizing sphere.Sphere Scale —可视化球体的大小。
Voxel Probe is a required object for the Voxel-Based GI feature, which enables you to generate a lighting texture for Voxel Probe and simulate global illumination with indirect lighting for both, interiors and outdoor scenes.Voxel Probe是基于体素的GI功能,使您可以为Voxel Probe生成照明纹理,并使用室内和室外场景的间接照明模拟全局照明。

Voxel Probe Settings体素探头设置#
Parameters of Voxel Probe are available in the Node tab of the Parameters window. It contains both the common and the specific parameters. A set of parameters specific for Voxel Probe is described below.Voxel Probe的参数在Parameters窗口的Node选项卡中可用。它既包含常见的以及具体参数。下文描述了一组特定于Voxel Probe的参数。
Common Parameters常用参数#
Render Parameters渲染参数#
Color | Sets the light color in the RGBA format. The color defines both the plausibility of virtual representation and its aesthetic component.设置灯光颜色格式为RGBA。颜色定义了虚拟表示的合理性及其美学成分。 |
---|---|
Intensity |
Sets the light color multiplier, which provides fine control over color intensity of the emitted light:设置灯光颜色乘数,它可以很好地控制发射光的颜色强度:
|
Shadow Mask | The Shadow mask controls rendering of a shadow cast by an object lit by a light source.Shadow遮罩控制由光源照亮的对象投射的阴影的渲染。 |
Viewport Mask | Sets the Viewport mask for the light.设置灯光的Viewport蒙版。 |
Visibility Distance | Distance from the camera, in units, up to which Voxel Probe will be rendered.距相机的距离(以单位为单位),直到渲染Voxel Probe为止。 |
Fade Distance | Distance from the camera, in units, starting from which Voxel Probe starts to fade out gradually.距相机的距离(以单位为单位),从该距离开始,Voxel Probe开始逐渐消失。 |
Render On Water | Renders Voxel Probe on the water surface.在水上渲染Voxel Probe。 |
Render On Transparent | Renders Voxel Probe on transparent surfaces.在透明对象上渲染Voxel Probe。 |
Blend Mode |
Toggles the blending mode for Voxel Probe. This option offers more flexibility in lighting control.切换Voxel Probe的混合模式。此选项在照明控制方面提供了更大的灵活性。 The following modes are available:有以下几种模式:
Voxel Probe with additive blending enabled cannot be used as an inset to add lighting details (e.g. creating a small high-detail Voxel Probe inside a large low-detail one). Such nodes do not replace each other, as they are blended instead.启用了加性混合的Voxel Probe不能用作添加照明细节的插图(例如,在较大的低细节中创建一个较小的高细节Voxel Probe)。这样的节点不会彼此替换,因为它们是混合在一起的。 |
Multiply By Sky Color |
Enables the influence of sky color on Voxel Probe. When enabled, this option makes the Voxel Probe color black at night, or orange at sunset.启用天空的颜色对 Voxel Probe 的影响。启用后,此选项可使Voxel Probe颜色在夜间变为黑色,而在日落时变为橙色。 To bake lighting from the sky separately with this option enabled, it is recommended to enable baking visibility for the sky only, while disabling it for other light sources.要在启用此选项的情况下分别从天上烘烤照明,建议启用烘烤天空的能见度仅,同时禁用其他光源。 Changing this option requires the lighting to be re-baked.更改此选项需要重新烘烤照明。 |
