* 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
This changes the types of a big number of variables.
General rules:
- Using `uint64_t` in general. We also considered `int64_t` but eventually
settled on keeping it unsigned, which is also closer to what one would expect
with `size_t`/`off_t`.
- We only keep `int64_t` for `seek_end` (takes a negative offset from the end)
and for the `Variant` bindings, since `Variant::INT` is `int64_t`. This means
we only need to guard against passing negative values in `core_bind.cpp`.
- Using `uint32_t` integers for concepts not needing such a huge range, like
pages, blocks, etc.
In addition:
- Improve usage of integer types in some related places; namely, `DirAccess`,
core binds.
Note:
- On Windows, `_ftelli64` reports invalid values when using 32-bit MinGW with
version < 8.0. This was an upstream bug fixed in 8.0. It breaks support for
big files on 32-bit Windows builds made with that toolchain. We might add a
workaround.
Fixes#44363.

Generates a key/cert snakeoil pair or use a custom SSL cert/key.
This is of course false security, and potentially detrimental for it.
But, so long, those are the requirements browser vendors agreed on to
use things like the Gamepad API, and more advanced topics like wasm
threads.
You don't need this if you run on localhost (at least!), but you do
need this (or a much safer nginx proxy) to try those things on your
local network (e.g. when debugging a phone, networking, etc).
We used to only generate the favicon if it was specified in the user
project settings, now it's optional, will export it to `NAME.icon.png`,
(falling back to the default project icon if none is set in project
settings), and the `<link>` tag is added using the `$HEAD_INCLUDE`
instead of being hardcoded in the template.
Added as an export option "Experimental Virtual Keyboard".
There is no zoom, so text/line edit must be in the top part of the
screen, or it will get hidden by the virtual keyboard.
UTF8/Latin-1 only (I think regular UTF-8 should work out of the box in
4.0 but I can't test it).
It uses an hidden textarea or input, based on the multiline variable,
and only gets activated if the device has a touchscreen.
This could cause problems on devices with both touchscreen and a real
keyboard (although input should still work in general with some minor
focus issues). I'm thinking of a system to detect the first physical
keystroke and disable it in case, but it might do more harm then good,
so it must be well thought.
This allow the loading bar to be much more reliable, even in cases where
realible stream loading status is not detectable (server-side
compression, chunked encoding).
Three canvas resize policies:
- `None`: Godot window settings are ignored.
- `Project`: Godot handles the canvas like a native app (resizing it
when setting the window size).
- `Adaptive`: Canvas size will always adapt to browser window size.
Use `None` if you want to control the canvas size with custom JavaScript
code.
-Advanced Settings toggle also hides advanced properties when disabled
-Simplified Advanced Bar (errors were just plain redundant)
-Reorganized rendering quality settings.
-Reorganized miscelaneous settings for clean up.
- Based on C++11's `thread` and `thread_local`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed (except for the few cases of non-portable functions)
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- Thread ids are now the same across platforms (main is 1; others follow)
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 🎆
Rewrote AudioDriverJavaScript to support multiple processor nodes.
The old (and deprecated) ScriptProcessorNode when threads are not
available, and the new AudioWorklet API when threads are enabled.
The new implementation uses two ring buffers and a shared state to
communicated with the AudioWorklet thread.
The audio.worklet.js JavaScript file is always added to the export
template, but only really used (and downloaded) in the thread build.
This allow the page to be considered a SecureContext if the address is
localhost (127.0.0.1/::1) and let Firefox (and future Chrome versions)
enable extra features needed for the HTML5 threaded export.
Which means that reduz' beloved style which we all became used to
will now be changed automatically to remove the first empty line.
This makes us lean closer to 1TBS (the one true brace style) instead
of hybridating it with some Allman-inspired spacing.
There's still the case of braces around single-statement blocks that
needs to be addressed (but clang-format can't help with that, but
clang-tidy may if we agree about it).
Part of #33027.
- Refactored the Engine code, splitted across files.
- Use MODULARIZE option to build emscripten code into it's own closure.
- Enable lto support (saves ~2MiB in release).
- Enable optional closure compiler pass for JS and generated code.
- Enable optional pthreads support.
- Can now build with tools=yes (not much to see yet).
- Dropped some deprecated code for older toolchains.
Main:
- It's now implemented thanks to `<mutex>`. No more platform-specific implementations.
- `BinaryMutex` (non-recursive) is added, as an alternative for special cases.
- Doesn't need allocation/deallocation anymore. It can live in the stack and be part of other classes.
- Because of that, it's methods are now `const` and the inner mutex is `mutable` so it can be easily used in `const` contexts.
- A no-op implementation is provided if `NO_THREADS` is defined. No more need to add `#ifdef NO_THREADS` just for this.
- `MutexLock` now takes a reference. At this point the cases of null `Mutex`es are rare. If you ever need that, just don't use `MutexLock`.
- Thread-safe utilities are therefore simpler now.
Misc.:
- `ScopedMutexLock` is dropped and replaced by `MutexLock`, because they were pretty much the same.
- Every case of lock, do-something, unlock is replaced by `MutexLock` (complex cases where it's not straightfoward are kept as as explicit lock and unlock).
- `ShaderRD` contained an `std::mutex`, which has been replaced by `Mutex`.
Due to the port to Vulkan and complete redesign of the rendering backend,
the `drivers/gles3` code is no longer usable in this state and is not
planned to be ported to the new architecture.
The GLES2 backend is kept (while still disabled and non-working) as it
will eventually be ported to serve as the low-end renderer for Godot 4.0.
Some GLES3 features might be selectively ported to the updated GLES2
backend if there's a need for them, and extensions we can use for that.
So long, OpenGL driver bugs!
-Texture renamed to Texture2D
-TextureLayered as base now inherits 2Darray, cubemap and cubemap array
-Removed all references to flags in textures (they will go in the shader)
-Texture3D gone for now (will come back later done properly)
-Create base rasterizer for RenderDevice, RasterizerRD
