The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Following on from the addition of OccluderShapeSphere in 3.4 , lawnjelly now brings us a more adaptable and easy way to add basic occlusion culling in the form of the OccluderShapePolygon.

A new software skinning for MeshInstance to replace the slow GPU skinning on devices that don't support the fast GPU skinning (especially mobile). Font: Load dynamic fonts to memory on all platforms to avoid locked files ( GH-44117 ). Rendering: Disable lights for objects with baked lighting ( GH-41629 ).

Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. Here is an example using the older 3D platformer demo: VR support.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Several new optimization techniques are also at your disposal, such as occlusion culling , automatic mesh LOD , and manual HLOD using visibility ranges , made possible by Joan Fons ( JFonS ), and Juan.

Given GLES2 isn't going to disappear any time soon due to low end mobile devices, we still need to support it for a few more years to come. This ensures great compatibility with all desktop PCs, mobile devices and WebGL 2. On objects that provide their own baked AO, this value is harcoded to 0, to avoid SSAO from interfering with them.
