This is a screenshot that displays the object-space position of each pixel as the color. That was fixed by reflecting the view-vector with the normal of the current pixel. It halves the resolution of the image until there's only one pixel left. The GLES2 backend is a forward renderer, that means each gets shaded once.

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. Dynamic BVH for rendering and GodotPhysics. Rendering: Unified 2D batching. More rendering improvements. Physics: Many fixes to one-way collisions.

Even though the Paddle will take part in the physics system collisions, in the sense that it can move other bodies, its own position is controlled manually. This method will be called repeatedly, prior to rendering each frame of our game. which is the number of units we can move the paddle before it hits the wall. Connect The Script.

2D batching for the GLES2 renderer. While most rendering work was postponed for the 4.0 release with its new Vulkan-based renderer, our contributors lawnjelly and Clay ( clayjohn ) decided to give some more attention to the 3.2 GLES2: Add 2D batch rendering across items ( GH-37349 ). please file an issue on GitHub.

A shader is a script where you write code that determines how the colors will be rendered based on various scenarios like lighting and material configuration. The ZWrite Off and ZTest Greater are responsible for making the shader render the material behind other objects.

It's been a month since the first progress report , and progress continues towards the new Godot renderer. Little by little every system falls into place, and rendering starts feeling a lot more mature. Implement Particle Shaders, with support for: Sorting, Collision and Soft Particles. Add Layered/Stencil rendering.

Rendering: Portal occlusion culling. More rendering improvements. Revamped collision layer grid in the inspector. Up till now a significant missing feature in the renderer has been the ability to cull (prevent rendering) objects that are within the camera view, but occluded by another object (for instance a wall).

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. I can easily throw ~200 sprites (that all share the same spritesheet) on the screen with basic overlap / collision tests at 720p resolution at a steady 30 FPS. and no WASM.)
