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 🎆
Since we clone the environments to build thirdparty code, we don't get an
explicit dependency on the build objects produced by that environment.
So when we update thirdparty code, Godot code using it is not necessarily
rebuilt (I think it is for changed headers, but not for changed .c/.cpp files),
which can lead to an invalid compilation output (linking old Godot .o files
with a newer, potentially ABI breaking version of thirdparty code).
This was only seen as really problematic with bullet updates (leading to
crashes when rebuilding Godot after a bullet update without cleaning .o files),
but it's safer to fix it everywhere, even if it's a LOT of hacky boilerplate.
-Changed how mesh data is organized, hoping to make it more efficient on Vulkan and GLES.
-Removed compression, it now always uses the most efficient format.
-Added support for custom arrays (up to 8 custom formats)
-Added support for 8 weights in skeleton data.
-Added a simple optional versioning system for imported assets, to reimport if binary is newer
-Fixes #43979 (I needed to test)
WARNING:
-NOT backwards compatible with previous 4.x-devel, will most likely never be, but it will force reimport scenes due to version change.
-NOT backwards compatible with 3.x scenes, this will be eventually re-added.
-Skeletons not working any longer, will fix in next PR.
-Allows merging several 2D objects into a single draw operation
-Use current node to clip children nodes
-Further fixes to Vulkan barriers
-Changed font texture generation to white, fixes dark eges when blurred
-Other small misc fixes to backbuffer code.
They're now disabled by default, and can be enabled with the command line
argument `--vk-layers`.
When enabled, the errors about them being missing are now warnings, as
users were confused and thought this meant Vulkan is broken for them.
Fix crash in `~VulkanContext` when validation layers are disabled (exposed by
this PR since before they could not be disabled without source modification).
Also moved VulkanContext member initializations to header.
Fixes#37102.
This commit moves the declaration of a local variable to ensure its
scope survives long enough; at least in some versions of GCC and LLVM
the associated memory was freed too early and thus caused issues ranging
from black screens to crashes.
-Removed normal/specular properties from nodes
-Create CanvasTexture, which can contain normal/specular channels
-Refactored, optimized and simplified 2D shaders
-Use atlas for light textures.
-Use a shadow atlas for shadow textures.
-Use both items aboves to make light rendering stateless (faster).
-Reorganized uniform sets for more efficiency.
Add additional source and dest mask bits for "from external" and "to
external" subpass dependencies (respectively) when intial and final
layouts cause implicit layout transitions.
This is a big hammer -- any transition in a given direction will create
a full barrier. Attachment specific stage and access flags could be
used instead with additional logic to deduce the prior and intended
subsequent usages.
Added the fragment stage to the texture copy and resolve final barriers
for source and dest. As the textures could subsequently be used by the
fragment stage, this was triggering a validation error from the
pre-alpha synchronization validation.
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.
Add VMA to iphone platform Use linkflag for iphone building to enforce static linking. Works fine with dynamic '.framework' library
Updated xcode project to use '.a' static library
The changes from #38835 were not sufficient to fix#38829, as VkClearAttachment
still had uninitialized member structs in its VkClearColor member struct.
The struct rabbit hole goes deep and trying to do validation as done in #38829
doesn't appear realistic.
I couldn't find a tool that enforces it, so I went the manual route:
```
find -name "thirdparty" -prune \
-o -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.h" -o -name "*.m" -o -name "*.mm" \
-o -name "*.glsl" > files
perl -0777 -pi -e 's/\n}\n([^#])/\n}\n\n\1/g' $(cat files)
misc/scripts/fix_style.sh -c
```
This adds a newline after all `}` on the first column, unless they
are followed by `#` (typically `#endif`). This leads to having lots
of places with two lines between function/class definitions, but
clang-format then fixes it as we enforce max one line of separation.
This doesn't fix potential occurrences of function definitions which
are indented (e.g. for a helper class defined in a .cpp), but it's
better than nothing. Also can't be made to run easily on CI/hooks so
we'll have to be careful with new code.
Part of #33027.
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.
-Added LocalVector (needed it)
-Added stb_rect_pack (It's pretty cool, we could probably use it for other stuff too)
-Fixes and changes all around the place
-Added library for 128 bits fixed point (required for Delaunay3D)
Part of #33027, also discussed in #29848.
Enforcing the use of brackets even on single line statements would be
preferred, but `clang-format` doesn't have this functionality yet.
Also added an easier way to load native GLSL shaders.
Extras:
Had to fix no-cache for subresources in resource loader, it was not properly working, making shaders not properly reload.
Note:
The precommit hooks are broken because they don't seem to support enums from one class being used in another.
Feel free to fix this after merging this PR.
Also implemented decal atlas, so projectors and other stuff can be added.
Sidenote: Had to make RID hashable, so some unrelated includes changed
in order to include it in hashfuncs.h
