LightX is the module within my Project X engine that is responsible for generating, saving, and managing lightmaps. This tool generates lightmaps using a relatively simple lighting equation, packs them efficiently into a bitmap, saves the lightmap atlas to disk, and allows you to load a level and view the lightmaps in action.

LightX features the following (partial) list of features:

  • Lightmap generator

  • Perspective correct lightmapping
