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.

x updates with bug fixes, but also new features as long as they don't require breaking compatibility. x), we're going back to a stricter application of semantic versioning and those releases will only contain bug fixes and usability/documentation improvements. When we released Godot 3.2 This led us to have a quite feature-packed 3.2.2

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.

A button has been added to the debugger to copy the error messages, useful for pasting them in bug reports or other community platforms. Here are some of the more visible bugs fixed in this release.

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.

Rendering: Add optional UV2 logic for lightmapping to primitive shapes ( GH-67975 ). Rendering: Enable mipmaps in cubemap roughness shader ( GH-68511 ). Rendering: Properly set TIME shader uniform when rendering shadows ( GH-68574 ). See the GitHub issue tracker for a list of known bugs in the 4.0 Bug reports.

When the user turns on high-precision lightmap baking, 16-bit colors are used instead of 8-bit colors, and AO channels are baked separately. Still, the disadvantage is that it will increase the lightmap package. New and standard-material will default to Surface Shader. Fixed bug with import plugin script exceeding 500KB.

When doing tasks such as shader editing, VFX (particles) or animation, there is a large difference between Godot and engines such as Unreal.

No lightmaps or anything of the sort are required, providing a very quick and efficient workflow. Materials and shaders. GPU particles.

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,

Visual shader editor. Lots and lots of driver bugs in mobile and desktop. Even modern flagship devices still ship with crippling driver bugs. Some shader features will not work and throw an error when used (which is to be expected when using an older OpenGL version). Use baked lightmaps instead. Revamped 2D editor.
