Dynamic GI color

Hello,

I tried the new dynamic GI system, and it seems to work flawlessly, but I was a bit disapointed to see that when I change material color (via script or manually) in game, the GI is not updated. If I do it in the editor, it works perfectly.
The lighting is realtime, not baked.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a misunderstanding on my part ?

​

 

i think there's a Dynamic GI API to tell the GI that a material has changed.

 

Yes. I also thought about it, but didn"t find any.
Is the official API documentation reference is already updated with Unity 5 API special features ?

 

I'm interested in this information as well. Ran into the same problem. If you find an answer please update.

 

I checked, you can use:
DynamicGI.UpdateMaterials

 

Awesome. Thanks!

 

Thank you very much. That did the trick.

Where did you get those API infos ?

 

Hm, actually it didn't fix it for me. I must be doing something else wrong.

EDIT: Ah, I see what it fixed now. My issue is slightly different in that I have to select the shader in the inspector while the game is running before my script will kick in and change the shader values. Once I select it, the shader values update without issue. But it won't update upon initially hitting play--only after selecting it in the inspector.

 

no problem, I did a quick search in the documentations, I was sure there was such API as aras talked about it somewhere,

 

Did a research in the doc too, but since the API only covers until v4.5.x (http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/40_history.html) , I couldn't find any DynamicGI class. (Nor with the search engine).
Is there a documentation page specific to Unity 5 somewhere or is it me ?

Thanks again Shkarface Noori.

 

FYI: The Documentation is also bundled with every Unity installation for Offline research.

 

Sorry,
As I suspected : it's me.
I will go to sleep tonight a little bit less stupid thanks to you.
