Area lights update

Hi,

I was waiting for the area lights update (Issue #16607) and I see that the issue is now completed but I can’t see any PR related to this.

Can somebody explain me what happens ?

Thanks a lot

The issue has been completed by @thomlucc and assigned to @bkaradzic

Any news about this issue ?

Sorry, @bvaisman , we ended up missing the request to add area lights to the .babylon format completely in the middle of the issue.

This should not be a hard task, let me work on it today and see what I can get.

hi @srzerbetto ,

Thanks very much for your answer. Can you tell me if there will be soon a PR for the support of shadows in the area lights and for the disc area light ?

We did a little investigation to find if adding support for area lights shadows would be possible or not, but we haven’t found a suitable implementation yet. Therefore, we don’t have it in our road map so far.

We are also not actively working on adding support for other light shapes.

Right now my focus is mainly on making it working with Babylon Lite and adding support for it in Babylon Native.
