fixes many bugs that were found by the staff and developers when upgrading to 3.7. Cocos Creator 3.7.1 We appreciate your help and work to improve the engine. We also have added a new demo project that will share many of the new upgrades that have come with 3.7 and previous updates. You can download it from the Cocos Store.

APRIL 21, 2021

in January 2020, we switched the development focus towards the upcoming Godot 4.0 , which is a major, compatibility-breaking rewrite of the engine's core and rendering. x updates with bug fixes, but also new features as long as they don't require breaking compatibility. Dynamic BVH for rendering and GodotPhysics.

fixed a GDNative binary compatibility bug. Because now the mipmap-level (the amount of "small-ness" of the texture) has a different use case we need to access it manually in the shaders rather than letting OpenGL handle that for us automatically. The cubemap filtering shader can be found here. Done May 2018.

Rendering: A ton of fixes for all rendering backends, and missing features implemented for the OpenGL3 one. GUI: Add a Font import option to pre-render all glyphs required for the translation ( GH-68448 ). Physics: Implement adjusting the maximum number of physics steps per rendered frame ( GH-65836 ).

has an entirely new rendering architecture, which is divided into modern and compatibility backends. The modern one does rendering via RenderingDevice (which is implemented in drivers such as Vulkan, Direct3D 12, and more in the future). Rendering is significantly more efficient in Godot 4.0, Low level rendering access.

Also, there are some bugs to be fixed. Project: Allow undocking the Script editor and the Shader editor. In this project, I'll focus to make the Script editor and the Shader editor undockable, and keep the undocked windows after editor restarts. Detaching the Script editor and the Shader editor is done for the most part.

Visual shader editor. x branch used OpenGL ES 2.0 / OpenGL 2.1 ( GLES2 ) as its rendering API. This worked well, but had many limitations preventing us to use more modern rendering techniques. all rendering code was rewritten to use the more modern OpenGL ES 3.0 / OpenGL 3.3 renderer was removed. 2D skeletons.

The goal between now and the stable release will be to continue polishing the current feature set by fixing bugs and optimizing performance. We ask that everyone join us in that – the sooner we fix the blocking bugs and release 4.0, We ask that everyone join us in that – the sooner we fix the blocking bugs and release 4.0,
