Adaptive Probe Volumes (APV) in URP
Approaches and resources for using Adaptive Probe Volumes to provide higher quality, more accurate lighting.
Read time 2 minutesLast updated 21 days ago
Adaptive Probe Volumes make Light Probes easier to use by automating placement. They also provide higher quality, more accurate lighting, because they light per-pixel not per-object.
