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.
While OpenGL ES 3.0 and WebGL 2.0 both support non power-of-2 (NPOT)
textures in their specification, the situation seems to be less clear
about *compressed* NPOT textures using repeat or mipmap flags.
At least Chrome on Linux doesn't seem to support this combination,
and a variety of mobile hardware have similar limitations.
As a workaround, we force decompressing such textures when running on
WebGL 2.0, at the cost of loading time and memory usage.
Fixes#33058.
Condensed some if and ERR statements. Added dots to end of error messages
Couldn't figure out EXPLAINC. These files gave me trouble: core/error_macros.h, core/io/file_access_buffered_fa.h (where is it?),
core/os/memory.cpp,
drivers/png/png_driver_common.cpp,
drivers/xaudio2/audio_driver_xaudio2.cpp (where is it?)
For clarity, assign-to-release idiom for PoolVector::Read/Write
replaced with a function call.
Existing uses replaced (or removed if already handled by scope)
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
If a non-imported texture resource file (e.g. DDS) gets updated the editor
doesn't reload it. The cause of the problem is two-fold:
First, the code of ImageTexture assumes that textures are always imported
from an image, but that's not the case for e.g. DDS. This change thus adds
code to issue a resource reload in case an image reload is not possible
(which is the case for non-imported texture resources).
Second, the code is filled with bogus calls to Image::get_image_data_size()
to determine the mipmap offset when that should be done using
Image::get_image_mipmap_offset(). Previous code literally passed the integer
mip level value to Image::get_image_data_size() where that actually expects
a boolean. Thus this part of the change might actually solve some other
issues as well.
To be pedantic, the texture_get_data() funciton of the rasterizer drivers is
still quite a mess, as it only ever returns the whole mipchain when
GLES_OVER_GL is set (practically only on desktop builds) but this change does
not attempt to resolve that.
The bake mode property of lights previously didn't affect GI probes.
This change makes the GI probe ignore lights that have their bake mode
set to disabled.
It seems to stay compatible with formatting done by clang-format 6.0 and 7.0,
so contributors can keep using those versions for now (they will not undo those
changes).
FBX support and MMD (pmx) support.
Normals, Albedo, Metallic, and Roughness through Arnold 5 Materials for Maya FBX.
Maya FBX Stingray PBS support.
Importing FBX static meshes work.
Importing FBX animations is a work in progress.
Supports FBX 4 bone influence animations.
Supports FBX blend shapes.
MMDs do not have an associated animation import yet.

- Cleaned up and improved the code determining when we need to use a depth
prepass (previously it wasn't executed in certain cases even if it was
needed)
- Added code to prepare and bind the depth texture even when no depth prepass
or MRTs (more precisely effect buffers) are used
Fixes#25870, #25535, and #25387.
