/// This method uses the current DeferredGraphicsScreen to render new environment maps at
/// runtime. The DeferredGraphicsScreen has a SceneCaptureRenderer which we can use to
/// capture environment maps of the current scene.
/// To capture new environment maps the flag _updateEnvironmentMaps must be set to true.
/// When this flag is set, SceneCaptureNodes are added to the scene. When the graphics
/// screen calls the SceneCaptureRenderer the next time, the new environment maps will be
/// captured.
/// The flag _updateEnvironmentMaps remains true until the new environment maps are available.
/// This method checks the SceneCaptureNode.LastFrame property to check if new environment maps
/// have been computed. Usually, the environment maps will be available in the next frame.
/// (However, the XNA Game class can skip graphics rendering if the game is running slowly.
/// Then we would have to wait more than 1 frame.)
/// When environment maps are being rendered, the image-based lights are disabled to capture
/// only the scene with ambient and directional lights. Dynamic objects are also disabled
/// to capture only the static scene.
