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 ). Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. Ability to completely reimplement all rendering code if desired, without changing the underlying game. For example: On GLES3+ we can use UBOs to optimize shader parameters. Shader abstraction.
