-All shadow rendering is done with raster now (no compute)
-All shadow rendering is done by rendering directly to the shadow atlas
-Improved how buffer clearing is done to optimize the above.
-Ability to set shadows as 16 bits.
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 🎆
-Happens on import by default for all models
-Just works (tm)
-Biasing can be later adjusted per node or per viewport (as well as globally)
-Disabled AABB.get_support test because its broken
The return type for `_make_custom_tooltip` is clarified as Control, and users
should make sure to return a visible node for proper size calculations.
Moreover in the current master branch, a PopupPanel will be added as parent
to the provided tooltip to make it a sub-window.
Clarifies documentation for `Control._make_custom_tooltip`, and shows how to
use the (until now undocumented) "TooltipPanel" and "TooltipLabel" theme types
to style tooltips.
Fixes#39677.
-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.
It can be enabled in the Project Settings
(`rendering/quality/screen_filters/use_debanding`). It's disabled
by default as it has a small performance impact and can make
PNG screenshots much larger (due to how dithering works).
It will also slightly brighten the scene's dark areas.
As a result, it should be enabled only when banding is noticeable enough.
This closes#17006.
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.
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
- Made shadow bias size independent, so it will remain when changing light or camera size.
- Implemented normal offset bias, which greatly enhances quality.
- Added transmission to subsurface scattering
- Reimplemented shadow filter modes
Closes#17260
For us, it practically only changes the fact that `A<A<int>>` is now
used instead of the C++03 compatible `A<A<int> >`.
Note: clang-format 10+ changed the `Standard` arguments to fully
specified `c++11`, `c++14`, etc. versions, but we can't use `c++17`
now if we want to preserve compatibility with clang-format 8 and 9.
`Cpp11` is still supported as deprecated alias for `Latest`.
-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
