This new RC 3 build fixes a couple recent regressions. While this is not a feature per se, it fixes a major annoyance that users have had with pointers to freed objects unexpectedly being re-assigned to new objects, causing hard-to-debug issues. Pull Request, so we're now confident to include it in this beta build for further testing.

Recently, NetEase introduced Mesh Shader support to Justice. Soon we found we can combine Mesh Shaders with auto-generated LODs to achieve almost only-resolution-relevant rendering complexity, instead of polygon number. With so much potential of Mesh Shader, we conceive that it would be the main stream of future games.

This implementation handles spatial indexing of objects and, every frame, building a render list of objects drawn. For example: On GLES3+ we can use UBOs to optimize shader parameters. Truth is, the main advantage of using them is the ability to build render command lists using multiple CPU cores. Shader abstraction.
