This was best nearly 24 mins of my Unity Lightning learning experience, I wish there was more.

[KonstantinIvanichkin]

Very complete, with a great explanation of the essence of different types of lighting modes. Great work!

[styliejoker]

I always wondered how that worked thanks for the great video

[nogrilodoguede]

Perfect tutorial, I love your work! Keep doing this amazing content

[xpilarz]

you can move in scene view by holding RMB and pressing wsadqe keys. You can control movement speed with mouse wheel while holding RMB. You can use mouse middle button to pan and mouse wheel to zoom.

Great detailed tutorial! No questions left after watching it! Everything is clear! Thank you!😊

[nourazaher]

The most comprehensive unity lighting video I've seen! thanks for the great explanation and demonstration!

[Xeldar]

Awesome voice and tutorial. Thank you so much

[equilibrium-tech]

To know each settings backing-time would be awesome for next tutorial :D

[alec_almartson]

Thank you for this very Enlightening video 💡😂💯👍🏻

[laozec]

I'm also impressed by this no-shits-n-giggle but pure info

[buzzdx]

for the realtime gi at the end, does it still rely on light baking? or are only the probes baked then? would have liked to have a little explanation on how it is actually working, otherwise great video as usual =)

A first step should always be to ensure the color space is liniar (should be default in URP now, used to be gamma in the past) and set the tonemapping (ACES likely the best choice, unless you have some specific different goal)

Could you make a video on how to carry objects over to different scenes and on making save files? it seems a little sketchy to have objects detect if they already exist and then have them delete themselves when returning to a previous scene. I was also curious about different types of lighting in unity, so thank you bundles for taking the time to make this video!

[thiagosoares]

I baked (40mins!!) a scenario and then I change on single item, small (point light) and editor rebaked ALL again, taking forever again! Thats how it works? Do you have any advice to when is the time to bake light on static environment?

[equilibrium-tech]

Hi, may I know why make scene become darker when I reload the scene at runtime? Thank you

[nguyenbalongvu]

Hello, can you make a tutorial of ball dribbling in Unity, like proper dribbling and the ball is a separate piece of physic instead of a part of the body transform, I can not find any tutorial about this. Btw thank you for your great content

[saniyakhansaniyakhan]

Can you make a video on Joystick. I really want it.

[ManilaSh-cofn]

Someone from comments says it was a perfect tutorial
YES INDEED!

[JustwaitNwatch-w]
