A high performance global illumination pathtracing renderer built in unity for others to use with full support for rendering complex scenes without RT cores
Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

Description

Note: while it is capable of it, this isnt really for realtime, instead its more for renders

Built from the ground up for others to use, this is a renderer that uses pathtracing to create realistic images. I have tried to design this to be customizable and easy to use.

This is still heavily WIP, thus I highly encourage you to tell me about any ideas, issues, possible improvements, and things you wish were supported/changed.


Also highly reccomend you check out my small discord for links to everything and how to contact me(about anything): https://discord.gg/4Yh7AZuhcD


Please consider becomming a supporter on patreon, as while my goal is to make this easily available to everyone and free, it takes a lot of time and effort to continue to work on this that I could be spending on something else(link in discord)
