Static batching : combines static (not moving) GameObjects into big Meshes, and renders them in a faster way.   The foliage shader has an alpha cutout value and uses a texture + culling set to off (it is visible from both sides of the planes). It is slightly more expensive (it was on sale when I got it – Yehaw!)

Rendering: A ton of fixes for all rendering backends, and missing features implemented for the OpenGL3 one. Editor: Disable code font ligatures by default in the editor ( GH-68571 ). GUI: Add a Font import option to pre-render all glyphs required for the translation ( GH-68448 ).

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. Vitika Soni ( Vitika9 ) reworked the features and user experience of Godot’s ColorPicker during Google Summer of Code 2022. Lots of rendering changes.

Especially in hybrid rendering, where G-buffer or shadow maps are rasterized, it’s potentially beneficial to execute AS building on async compute. It can be directly in the AS build calls or in some related task like the culling of the objects. Cull instances for TLAS. Instead, cull instances depending on the situation.

It's been a month since the first progress report , and progress continues towards the new Godot renderer. Little by little every system falls into place, and rendering starts feeling a lot more mature. Improve Culling: Portals (rewrite as polygon-based) and Rooms. Add Layered/Stencil rendering. Introduction.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. This document was written in hopes to find more developers that would like to help us write rendering code, as it explains the overall design. Running the whole graphics rendering in a separate thread.

with 17 alpha builds distributed in 2022, and continuous development effort since 2019. As users, please report all bugs that you encounter and provide as much detail as you can (including screenshots, code, and where possible, a minimal reproduction project). Over the last few years we have completely overhauled the Godot renders.

It brings a brand new rendering engine with state-of-the-art PBR workflow for 3D, an improved assets pipeline, GDNative to load native code as plugins, C# 7.0 After meeting the initial goal, we hired karroffel to continue her work on GDNative (more about this below) and work on a new rendering backend. Full principled BSDF.
