We've had many issues with WebM support and specifically the libvpx library
over the years, mostly due to its poor integration in Godot's buildsystem,
but without anyone really interested in improving this state.
With the new GDExtensions in Godot 4.0, we intend to move video decoding to
first-party extensions, and this would likely be done using something like
libvlc to expose more codecs.
Removing the `webm` module means we can remove libsimplewebm, libvpx and
opus, which we were only used for that purpose. Both libvpx and opus were
fairly complex pieces of the buildsystem, so this is a nice cleanup.
This also removes the compile-time dependency on `yasm`.
Fixes lots of compilation or non-working WebM issues which will be linked
in the PR.
* Shader compilation is now cached. Subsequent loads take less than a millisecond.
* Improved game, editor and project manager startup time.
* Editor uses .godot/shader_cache to store shaders.
* Game uses user://shader_cache
* Project manager uses $config_dir/shader_cache
* Options to tweak shader caching in project settings.
* Editor path configuration moved from EditorSettings to new class, EditorPaths, so it can be available early on (before shaders are compiled).
* Reworked ShaderCompilerRD to ensure deterministic shader code creation (else shader may change and cache will be invalidated).
* Added shader compression with SMOLV: https://github.com/aras-p/smol-v
The code is based on the current version of thirdparty/vhacd and modified to use Godot's types and code style.
Additional changes:
- extended PagedAllocator to allow leaked objects
- applied patch from https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3/pull/3037
Since Embree v3.13.0 supports AARCH64, switch back to the
official repo instead of using Embree-aarch64.
`thirdparty/embree/patches/godot-changes.patch` should now contain
an accurate diff of the changes done to the library.
- `etc` module was renamed to `etcpak` and modified to use the new library.
- PKM importer is removed in the process, it's obsolete.
- Old library `etc2comp` is removed.
- S3TC compression no longer done via `squish` (but decompression still is).
- Slight modifications to etcpak sources for MinGW compatibility,
to fix LLVM `-Wc++11-narrowing` errors, and to allow using vendored or
system libpng.

- Fixed SoftBody surface update with new rendering system
- Added GodotPhysics implementation for SoftBody
- Added support to get SoftBody rid to interact with the physics server
- Added support to get SoftBody bounds from the physics server
- Removed support for unused get_vertex_position and get_point_offset
from the physics server
- Removed SoftBody properties that are unused in both Bullet and
GodotPhysics (angular and volume stiffness, pose matching)
- Added RenderingServerHandler interface to PhysicsServer3D so the physics servers don't need to reference the class from SoftBody node directly
Cylinder collision detection uses a mix of SAT and GJKEPA.
GJKEPA is used to find the best separation axis in cases where finding
it analytically is too complex.
Changes in SAT solver:
Added support for generating separation axes for cylinder shape.
Added support for generating contact points with circle feature.
Changes in GJKEPA solver:
Updated from latest Bullet version which includes EPA fixes in some
scenarios.
Setting a lower EPA_ACCURACY to fix accuracy problems with cylinder vs.
cylinder in some cases.
Also include public domain assets in `COPYRIGHT.txt` with Unlicence text or
dual-licensing scheme.
And document commit hashes for most thirdparty code in `thirdparty/README.md`
for clarity, and in case there's no tag matching the included version numbers.
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 🎆
Actually sdk-1.2.154.1 for Vulkan-Loader.
glslang is updated to bacaef3237c515e40d1a24722be48c0a0b30f75f which is the
known-good version for Vulkan-ValidationLayers 1.2.154.0.
COPYRIGHT.txt was synced with the current version of the glslang LICENSE.txt,
and `glslang/register_types.cpp` now uses the upstream definition for its
default builtin resource instead of hardcoding it.
This code currently isn't compiled (and cannot compile).
We plan to re-add OpenGL ES-based renderer(s) in Godot 4.0 alongside Vulkan
(probably ES 3.0, possibly also a low-end ES 2.0), but the code will be quite
different so it's not relevant to keep this old Godot 3.2 code.
The `drivers/gles2` code from the `3.2` branch can be used as a reference for
a potential new implementation.
Implements exit codes into the engine so tests can return their statuses.
Ideally we don't do this, and we use FIXUP logic to 'begin' and 'end' the engine execution for tests specifically.
Since realistically we're initialising the engine here we don't want to do that, since String should not require an engine startup to test a single header.
This lowers the complexity of running the unit tests and even for
physics should be possible to implement such a fix.
As of Godot 3.0, HQ2X is no longer used to upscale the editor theme
and icons on hiDPI displays, which limited its effective uses.
HQ2X was also used to upscale the project theme when the "Use Hidpi"
project setting was enabled, but results were often less than ideal.
The new StyleBoxFlat and SVG support also make HQ2X less important
to have as a core feature.
This decreases binary sizes slightly (-150 KB on most platforms,
-212 KB on WebAssembly release).
This partially addresses #12419.
Upstream development restarted after 13 years. Changes:
2020-02-02: Version 0.5.0
Minor speed improvement on the decompressor.
Prevent memory violation when decompressing corrupted input.
2020-01-10: Version 0.4.0
Only code & infrastructure clean-up, no new functionality.
It was initially implemented in #5871 for Godot 3.0, but never really
completed or thoroughly tested for most platforms. It then stayed in
limbo and nobody seems really keen to finish it, so it's better to
remove it in 4.0, and re-add eventually (possibly with a different API)
if there's demand and an implementation confirmed working on all
platforms.
Closes#8770.
