The Adaptive text editor theme is the default, and has therefore
been renamed Default for consistency with the Default theme preset.
It keeps its automatic dark/light switch status.
The Default text editor theme was actually a legacy Godot 2-style theme,
so it has been renamed to Godot 2 to match the theme preset.
Its background color has been changed to be a constant opaque color,
since the new editor theme made the theme look less good on a translucent
background. The previous background color on light theme also lacked
contrast.
* 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
When using a negative contrast value, the base color will be lightened
to create the derivative colors instead of being darkened.
This can lead to better-looking themes, especially for light themes.
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.
This adds the ability to add overrides for built-in actions (i.e. ui_*) in the editor. Also added a number of additional built-in actions for various text-related actions, gui-generic actions (like copy and paste) and graph-related actions (duplicate nodes), etc. Moved the definition of input actions to input_map, rather than in project_settings so the editor can make use of these actions as well.
-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.
With smaller arrays/dictionaries, this makes it possible to view all of
an array/dictionary's items on a single page.
Larger values could be used, but make switching between node selections
quite slow, especially on low-end CPUs. They could also be problematic
with complex resource inspectors for arrays/dictionaries that contain
Resources.
This closes https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/2058.
-For inspector refresh, the inspector now detects if a property change by polling a few times per second and then does update the control if so. This process is very cheap.
-For property list refresh, a new signal (property_list_changed) was added to Object. _change_notify() is replaced by notify_property_list_changed()
-Changed all objects using the old method to the signal, or just deleted the calls to _change_notify(<property>) since they are unnecesary now.
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 🎆
As a bonus, to have consistency between use Beziers and create insert tracks, use Beziers also gets a default via editor settings that is used when the confirmation dialog is disabled, instead of just falling back to creating non-Bezier tracks.
This makes it possible to view far away objects without
having to tweak any settings. This results in a more usable
editor when working on large-scale levels.
This change should have no impact on performance, but note that
Z-fighting will be visible at a distance. This can be made less
visible by increasing the Znear value (however, doing so will cause
nearby surfaces to disappear).
This change was also applied to the editor, but it will only
apply to newly created scenes.
This also changes the default camera settings in the glTF importer
to match the Camera node's defaults.
The code we had for PVRTexTool doesn't work as it's not compatible with current
PVRTexTool CLI options, and likely hasn't been for years.
Instead, we have our own vendored pvrtccompressor thirdparty library which all
users have thus de-facto been using. This commit moves the compress code to
`modules/pvr` where it belongs.
There's no proper compress function for PVRTC 2-bit format, that's a bug that
will need to be fixed (currently it's compressed as 4-bit format even if you
use Image::FORMAT_PVRTC2).
Fixes#28669.
