Jan 10, 2020 · The most notable difference, however, will come from Image Based Lighting (IBL) where we use the environment map (skybox) as a source of lighting information. How do I use it? Two new scriptable properties control the IBL amount:
Elevate Metal Reflections. A core advantage of using the Future lighting system is its ability to produce specular highlights on shiny, metallic surfaces. This increases the realism of indoor environments because it emulates real-world lighting behavior, and it provides a sense of depth to objects in the 3D space.

On October 13, 2018, rendering engineer zeuxcg announced the studio beta release of the first phase of the Future is Bright project. The main goals of this phase were to essentially bring things into line with the features Roblox needed in order to be able to model real-world visuals - HDR rendering, linear-space lighting, anisotropic occupancy, an...
On March 27, 2019, Roblox released Technology.Compatibility, with the intent of loosely approximating the basic behaviour of Legacy lighting, without having to make substantial changes within their engine code to allow it to be supported longer-term. Lighting.Legacy was removed from Roblox on June 27, 2019, but remained available through FastFlag c...
On December 4th, 2019, the appearance of the built-in materials changed as a result of the switch from a specular-based rendering workflow to one that is based upon the use of physically based rendering (PBR). This change has divided users, and results in many objects (older meshes) looking downgraded or even horrendous compared to before - it did ...
On June 24, 2020, Roblox officially announced the Studio beta for the third and final phase of the Future is Bright lighting update. Building on Lighting.ShadowMap, Lighting.Future took the new shadow-mapping technology and combined it with per-pixel lighting from local light sources (PointLight, SpotLight and SurfaceLight objects) in order to crea...
The Brightness property sets the light's brightness with maximum effect at the center of the light. Note that Brightness is still limited to the light's defined range, so a higher Brightness value doesn't light up a larger region around the light.
Lighting.ShadowSoftness & Light.ShadowSoftness allow you to vary “softness” (penumbra size) for sun or each individual light source. The values should be between 0 and 1. Note that we can’t render perfectly sharp shadows with our current technology - softness=0 is as sharp as we can get.
One big area that we see real-time engines increasingly moving towards solving is global illumination (or GI), which means computing secondary light effects, such as light from a lamp bouncing two times off the walls to provide extra illumination for areas that aren’t directly visible to the light.
