Various fixes to UV2 unwrapping and the GPU lightmapper. Listed here for
context in case of git blame/bisect:
* Fix UV2 unwrapping on import, also cleaned up the unwrap cache code.
* Fix saving of RGBA images in EXR format.
* Fixes to the GPU lightmapper:
- Added padding between atlas elements, avoids bleeding.
- Remove old SDF generation code.
- Fix baked attenuation for Omni/Spot lights.
- Fix baking of material properties onto UV2 (wireframe was
wrongly used before).
- Disable statically baked lights for objects that have a
lightmap texture to avoid applying the same light twice.
- Fix lightmap pairing in RendererSceneCull.
- Fix UV2 array generated from `RenderingServer::mesh_surface_get_arrays()`.
- Port autoexposure fix for OIDN from 3.x.
- Save debug textures as EXR when using floating point format.
- Make the timeline indicator thicker and with an indicator triangle,
similar to the animation editor timeline.
- Add Space bar shortcut to play/pause the audio preview.
- Only seek when clicking or dragging with the left mouse button,
not other mouse buttons.
-Enable the trails and set the length in seconds
-Provide a mesh with a skeleton and a skin
-Or, alternatively use one of the built-in TubeTrailMesh/RibbonTrailMesh
-Works deterministically
-Fixed particle collisions (were broken)
-Not working in 2D yet (that will happen next)
It existed in early Godot releases to allow working around hardware limitations
on max texture sizes (e.g. hardware limits of 1024x1024 pixels).
Nowadays the max texture size supported natively by Godot is 16384x16384, and
even low end mobile hardware should support at least 4096x4096.
The LargeTexture implementation is basically just an array with offsets, sizes
and textures and should be easy to replicate with a custom Texture resource if
needed - solving most of its bugs on the way as the implementation removed here
has various unimplemented or incomplete methods.
The editor theme now makes use of rounded corners and less borders
to follow modern visual trends.
The default theme's colors were also tweaked to make the blue hue
more subtle (similar to the Arc theme, which was removed as a
consequence). The Alien theme was replaced by a Breeze Dark theme,
which should blend in well with the KDE theme.
We've been using standard C library functions `memcpy`/`memset` for these since
2016 with 67f65f6639.
There was still the possibility for third-party platform ports to override the
definitions with a custom header, but this doesn't seem useful anymore.
The current code style guidelines forbid the use of `auto`.
Some uses of `auto` are still present, such as in UWP code (which
can't be currently tested) and macros (where removing `auto` isn't
easy).
Added an occlusion culling system with support for static occluder meshes.
It can be enabled via `Project Settings > Rendering > Occlusion Culling > Use Occlusion Culling`.
Occluders are defined via the new `Occluder3D` resource and instanced using the new
`OccluderInstance3D` node. The occluders can also be automatically baked from a
scene using the built-in editor plugin.
- For now everything imports multithreaded by default (should work I guess, let's test).
- Controllable per importer
Early test benchmark. 64 large textures (importing as lossless, _not_ as vram) on a mobile i7, 12 threads:
Importing goes down from 46 to 7 seconds.
For VRAM I will change the logic to use a compressing thread in a subsequent PR, as well as implementing Betsy.
The About button is located in the bottom-right corner of the
project manager.
This allows removing the copyright notice from the window title
(which looked a bit ugly in comparison to other applications).
-Used a more consistent set of keywords for the shader
-Remove all harcoded entry points
-Re-wrote the GLSL shader parser, new system is more flexible. Allows any entry point organization.
-Entry point for sky shaders is now sky().
-Entry point for particle shaders is now process().
- Pad decimal values to avoid layout shifts when the frame time
changes.
- Cap values to 0.01 milliseconds to avoid division by zero
in the FPS counter.
- Display a specific error message if the project doesn't have an
`export_presets.cfg` file.
- Display a list of detected export presets if an invalid export
preset name is supplied.
This makes it possible to see whether a scrollbar grabber is at the top
or at the bottom of a scrollbar. Also, if a scrollable area is very
large, this makes it easier to notice that the area can be scrolled
(since the grabber is proportionally very small).
The scrollbar grabbers were also made thicker and slightly more opaque
for better visibility, especially in peripheral vision.
- Focus the project search box when switching from the Templates tab
back to the Projects tab in the project manager.
- Add a context-specific placeholder for the asset library search box.
- Rename "Search" project filter box placeholder to the more
descriptive "Filter projects". When performing a search on an
existing selection, "Filter" is more accurate than "Search".
When there is no selection, the camera will center around the
world origin.
This helps people get back to the world center if they haven't added
any nodes yet.
