A long-standing Bullet regression has finally been fixed ( GH-56801 ), solving issues with KinematicBody collisions on edges (e.g. The fix seems relatively safe but this will require heavy testing to make sure it doesn't regress - if you have 3D games using Bullet physics, please try this RC 2 and report any issue.

The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. And for more advanced use cases, there is now also TextMesh to generate 3D meshes from font glyphs, so you can add Word Art to your scenes ;). and backported to 3.5.

If you use and enjoy Godot, plan to use it, or want support the cause of having a mature, high quality free and open source game engine, then please consider becoming our patron. Use baked lightmaps instead. is not a fallback but a different platform you should target your game for. Revamped filesystem dock. 2D skeletons.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Those now come with support for attractors, collision , trails , sub-emitters and manual emission. Don't worry, though, you will be able to reap the benefits of these new features without sacrificing your game's performance.

The new 3D engine is outstanding, with many features out-of-the-box that are still not common in other mainstream engines. The new 3D renderer is state-of-the-art, with features rarely see in game engines today, such as: Full principled BSDF. Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects.
