Godot for AA/AAA game development - What's missing?

Mircosoft Game Dev

using data oriented algorithms to process the culling of objects and both secondary command buffers and automatic batching to efficiently submit the draw primitives. Mesh streaming : Models are loaded as low detail (few vertices). Mesh resource for each pass of the particle. Rendering is significantly more efficient in Godot 4.0,

Godot 3.0 is out and ready for the big leagues

Mircosoft Game Dev

No lightmaps or anything of the sort are required, providing a very quick and efficient workflow. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. This does not let you use SVGs directly as 2D meshes yet, but it's on the roadmap for future releases. It's also very easy to use.

The next big step: Godot 4.0 reaches Beta

Mircosoft Game Dev

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Several new optimization techniques are also at your disposal, such as occlusion culling , automatic mesh LOD , and manual HLOD using visibility ranges , made possible by Joan Fons ( JFonS ), and Juan. has been added by Je06jm.
