- Improved memory usage when dealing with very geometry-heavy scenes.

- New LOD tracing mechanism. Scenes with lots of LODGroups should bake much faster now.

- Added Dither Transparency option. Allows for semi-transparent shadows by automatically dithering opacity values and blurring/denoising them later.

- Added Bakery Light Filter component also allowing for colored transparency, like stained glass (see new example scene).

- Added L2 light probe mode. Higher precision than L1, almost the same baking speed.

- Added Sampling Density option for per-vertex lightmap groups. Averages many samples across triangles instead of one at each vertex.

- Added Presets. All scene baking settings can be saved/loaded into them.

- Added Bakery Shared LOD UV component. Allows reusing the same lightmap for all LODs within a LODGroup (if UVs match).

- Light Mesh textures can now be tiled.

- Added Correct Distortion option for point lights in Cookie mode (uses better projection).

- Improved volume leak fixing algorithm.

- Added High Quality option for atlasing when using xatlas.

- Added a softer blend option for Ambient Occlusion.

- Added “Adjust UV padding for new meshes only” (thanks Dan).

- Added probe-level visualization for Bakery Volumes (thanks Dan).

- Bakery Volumes can now be rotated around Y.

- Bakery Volumes can be multi-edited.

- Atlas preview now highlights children of selected objects.

- Port for Network Baking can now be configured in the UI.

- Project Settings option: Bakery menu can be put into Tools menu.

- Project Settings option: automatically render reflection probes after lightmaps/probes.

- Project Settings option: force specific format for every map type.

- Project Settings option: ringing removal strength for L2 light probes.

- “High quality direction” option now affects MonoSH L1 map compression (thanks BoatFloater)

- Scene list for Batch Baking can now be saved/loaded.

- More tweakable parameters for reflection occlusion in Bakery Shader.

- Little help icons on components actually open the relevant wiki page now.

- Optimized volume sampling code in Bakery Shader (thanks scoan-sd)

- Some fixes for occlusion probe baking in URP.

- Fixed GI from terrains in HDRP.

- Fixed skinned mesh baking when the mesh is inside a Sector.

- Fixed some shader / texture flipping issues when Editor is set to GLES3.

- Fixed Baked Normal Maps mode when Editor is set to DX12 / Vulkan.

- Fixed Bakery Shader reflection occlusion in Deferred.

- FIxed instancing checkbox not showing in Bakery Shader UI.

- Fixed editing multiple lightmap group assets.

- Fixed lighting from non-selfshadowing area lights in Legacy light probe mode.

- Fixes for baking in ECS projects (thanks to AoiKamishiro for one).

- Fixed volume texture asset name warning on new Unity versions (thanks BoatFloater)

- Fixed non-uniform scaled normals.

- Fixed “Beep on finish” causing an error when project is set to .NET Standard; also made it work with Network Baking.

- Fixed lightmap group Auto Resolution logic.

- Fixed Light Mesh / Area Light matching on Unity 6 HDRP.

- Fixed using Bakery in batch mode.

- Fixed some rare crash with newer drivers.

- Some UI fixes / improvements.

- [BETA] Initial Adaptive Probe Volumes support.
