Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
This adds a static is_viable() method to all rasterizers which has to be
called before initializing the rasterizer. This allows us to check what
rasterizer to use in OS::initialize together with the GL context
initialization.
This commit also adds a new project setting
"rendering/quality/driver/driver_fallback" which allows the creator of a
project to specify whether or not fallback to GLES2 is allowed. This
setting is ignored for the editor so the editor will always open even if
the project itself cannot run. This will hopefully reduce confusion for
users downloading projects from the internet.
We also no longer crash when GLES3 is not functioning on a platform.
This fixes#15324
This commit adds a new rendering backend, GLES2, and adds a
project setting to enable it.
Currently this backend can only be used on the X11 platform,
but integrating into other platforms is planned.
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
Setting the class hint before mapping the window will allow some
window managers to determine if a window should be treated specially.
This is also in accordance with the ICCCM spec which says that
WM_CLASS should only be changed when a window is in a
withdrawn (unmapped) state.
Fixes#10429
"ALL IS GOOD" was a lie.
In particular, removes verbose "path not recognized" false positive.
The actual logic is to (somewhat naively) check all ResourceFormatLoaders
and to pick the first good match, so no need to warn about the formats
that do not match the type hint.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
-Most 2D drawing is implemented
-Missing shaders
-Missing all 3D
-Editor needs to be set on update always to be used, otherwise it does not refresh
-Large parts of editor not working
