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 ). Give it a try!

This can lead to a problem, when the movement of objects (which tends to occur on physics ticks) does not line up with the rendered frames, giving unsightly jitter. Switch on physics/common/physics_interpolation , and Godot will now automatically interpolate objects on rendered frames so they look super smooth. Give it a try!

NVIDIA DLSS Plugin for UE4 DLSS is a deep learning super resolution network that boosts frame rates by rendering fewer pixels and then using AI to construct sharp, higher resolution images. DLSS pairs perfectly with computationally intensive rendering algorithms such as real-time ray tracing. Access the NVIDIA DLSS plugin for UE4 here.

This order of events can't be escaped, as logic affects physics and rendering needs both information from logic and physics to display. Rendering, while mostly a sequential process (GPUs are sequential), can be parallelized in a few places, like frustum culling and (in modern APIs such as Vulkan, Metal or DirectX12) creation of command lists.
