So we're starting the beta testing phase with this already significant set of changes, and we'll have frequent beta builds to polish them for the stable release. Some more features are still being worked on and will be included in future beta builds. alpha (see our release policy for details on the various Godot versions).

But the “1” in beta 1 means that it’s only the first step of the journey, and like for the alpha phase, we’re going to release new beta snapshots roughly every other week. Physics: Optimized support function for large meshes ( GH-64382 ). NET 6 build (C#, GDScript, GDExtension). We released Godot 4.0 Requires.NET SDK 6.0

In this build, we also built it for 32-bit platforms (armv7 and x86) as there was some demand for it, so you'll find the APK is a bit heavier. Like with 4.0

The new CSG nodes lacked support for generating the tangents, there were orientation issues when importing Collada or glTF files, and the new primitive meshes reversed the direction of these. We spent a great deal of time over the last week going through all these issues and correcting them.

The new particle system uses meshes by default (to work with impostor quads, just create a QuadMesh and assign a material with billboard set to enabled). Mesh surfaces can also emit directed by normals: We wanted to include skeletal transform support to emission meshes, as it's not a lot more complex, but this will have to wait for 3.1 :(.

For new users, we recommend the "classical" build (as opposed to the "Mono" build with C# support, currently in alpha) and the GDScript language, which you should be able to learn very fast. Experienced Godot users may also want to try the nightly builds of the upcoming Godot 3.1, x installed.

Godot can now be started with --build-solutions on the command line. This will let you build C# solutions without starting the editor. It is now possible to scale an.obj mesh when importing. Make sure to delete the.mono folder in your project folder to force a new build (this workflow will be improved in future releases).

You can use a negative density to subtract one volume from another to create more complex shapes if you need to, or if you need to keep fog from accumulating somewhere like in a house or other building.

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. It parses your code and automatically understands what you are trying to do (such as writing to alpha for transparency, reading from screen, etc.) In Godot 3.0,
