For global illumination, GIProbe can be used as the resulting MeshInstances are set to be used in baked light.
However, BakedLightmap will not work correctly as UV2 isn't generated properly for the generated meshes.

## Media
## Material appearance

By default, Metallic Specular is set to 0.0 on generated materials to make reflections from the sky
much less visible. This is good for retro-looking games, but the physically correct setting is 0.5
(which is also the default in SpatialMaterial). If you wish to have a more realistic appearance,
adjust the Materials Metallic Specular property in the BSP_Map scene in the inspector.
