Dev snapshot: Godot 4.0 beta 9

Mircosoft Game Dev

Core: Handle corner cases for curve baking ( GH-69726 ). If you have existing scenes and resources with navigation polygons and meshes, you might want to skip beta 9 and wait for beta 10 in a few days so that your scenes and resources are ported seamlessly. Shaders: Fix the sorting of shader uniforms ( GH-70016 ).

Godot 4.0 will get a new, modernized lightmapper

Mircosoft Game Dev

The new lightmapper is GPU based written mostly on Compute shaders (meaning it does most of the heavy lifting using the GPU, via Vulkan). Most scenes bake in seconds instead of minutes or hours. Allows baking dynamic and static lights. Performs AI-based denoiser on the final bake, to ensure lightmaps are as smooth as possible.

Release candidate: Godot 3.5 RC 6

Mircosoft Game Dev

This RC 6 has a few notable changes compared to the previous build: In RC 4, async shader compilation and caching was enabled by default on desktop, but several users reported issues with it on some hardware. You can enable it in the Project Settings ( rendering/gles3/shaders/shader_compilation_mode ). Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!
