- improved mesh data calculation from standalone static colliders so that no
VisualServer calls are performed - and thus no VS mutexes need to
be locked in case of on-thread baking
- improved the same for GridMap's static colliders
The CylinderMesh generation code handles this special case and
avoids generating the top and bottom faces if their radius is equal
to 0. This improves performance by reducing the number of vertices
to draw.
If both values are set to 0, nothing will be visible but the mesh
generation will still succeed.
This also improves the CylinderMesh class documentation.
(cherry picked from commit b4ed84ba2b)
A value of 0 rings is valid and results in a non-subdivided cylinder.
Compared to the previous lowest allowed value (1), a value of 0 halves
the triangle count in any cylinder.
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.
- From now materials assigned to the MeshInstance (not the Mesh) get exported
into the MeshLibrary when such materials exist. This enables workflows where
the MeshLibrary is exported from an imported scene (e.g. GLTF) where the
materials assigned to the Mesh (not the MeshInstance) get overwritten on
re-import, thus can't use editor set materials in the exported MeshLibrary
unless they are assigned to the MeshInstance whose materials get saved with
the inherited scene thus persist across re-imports.
- When appending to an existing MeshLibrary only generate previews for newly
added or modified meshes.
- During preview generation transform camera and lights instead of the mesh
and use the source MeshInstance's transform for the mesh to avoid weird
previews being generated for meshes with a position dependent material
(e.g. when using triplanar mapping).
- Adjust the camera angle and light directions used in mesh preview generation
for better results.
-Missing Icons
-Missing freezing option (for baking light and faster load)
-Missing a way to export from Godot (GLTF2?)
-Probably buggy (may freeze editor, can be worked around easily, but let me know if this happens so it's easier to catch bugs)
Happy testing!
