Custom fall-off

In the real world, light fades over distance, and dim lights have a lower range than bright lights. The term “fall-off” refers to the rate at which light fades. Alongside Unity’s default fall-off lighting behaviour, you can also use custom fall-off settings.

Progressive LightmapperA tool in Unity that bakes lightmaps according to the arrangement of lights and geometry in your scene. More info
See in Glossary
provides custom fall-off presets, which you can implement via script. See the image below the table for a visual representation of how these work, and the code sample below the image for an example of how to use this functionality.

Property Function
InverseSquared Apply an inverse-squared distance fall-off model. This means the light intensity decreases inversely proportional to the square of location’s distance to the light source. For more information , see Wikipedia: Inverse-square law. This option is the most physically accurate.
InverseSquaredNoRangeAttenuation Apply an inverse-squared distance fall-off model with no smooth range attenuation. This works in the same way as InverseSquared, but the lighting system does not take into account the attenuation for the range parameter of punctual lights (that is, point lights and spotlights).
Legacy Apply a quadratic fall-off model. This model bases the light attenuation on the range of the light source. The intensity diminishes as the light gets further away from the source, but there is a very sharp and unnatural drop in the attenuation, and the visual effect is not realistic.
Linear Apply a linear fall-off model. In this model, attenuation is inversely proportional to the distance from the light, and the fall-off diminishes at a fixed rate from its source.
