alpha builds , we're trying to release 3.5 This adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. We're getting closer to the Godot 3.5 stable release with a fourth beta snapshot! Like with 4.0 back in 2020!

With the first variant completely finished, Bianca was able to get a successful bake for the second model this month before moving onto the base sculpt for the final rat and armor. We can't wait to see how all three Kota variants and their detailed armor sets once they're completely done.

Bianca manually did the retopology for the nymph, unwrapped and laid out the maps, baked the details, and started to spend time learning more about texturing in Substance Painter. This sprint, Bianca continued tweaking and refining the model, adding detailed clothing and experimenting with hair cards and skin color.

In game engines (or even when exported from the 3D modelling application), animation data is baked to a simpler representation because, for games, processing beziers and IKs is way too expensive for real-time. alpha is around the corner now (we have been pushing pre-alpha builds recently), so looking forward to a release soon!

One of those is reducing the number of addressing modes , which will help us eventually have instructions with addressing modes baked in. alpha, so more users can test it to verify how it's working. The small things can wait a bit longer to when we reach the bugfixing round after alpha is released.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Check out the video! What's new?

Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. Still, this workflow is easy and efficient as 3D objects get a second set of UVs generated on import, and baking works with instantiated meshes, scenes and even GridMaps. Both indirect light and voxel reflections are provided by this technique. In Godot 3.0,

Given the high control we have over the shader compiler, we can: Detect when shaders write to the alpha channel and automatically make the surface go via the transparent pipeline. Great alpha blending support. On objects that provide their own baked AO, this value is harcoded to 0, to avoid SSAO from interfering with them.
