In parallel to our work on the upcoming feature releases Godot 3.5 ( with a second beta ) and 4.0 ( now at alpha 4! ), we backport important fixes to the stable 3.4 Rendering: GLES2: Fix compression on blend shapes ( GH-58838 ). Rendering: GLES2: Fix VersionKey comparison in shader binding ( GH-58855 ). Last month's 3.4.3

As most of the rendering features for the upcoming Godot 4.0 are done, I have spent the past two months optimizing the rendering engine, both on the CPU and GPU side. All this work has resulted in significantly faster rendering times. A lot of the render state is now better cached, so less is done at render time.

But the “1” in beta 1 means that it’s only the first step of the journey, and like for the alpha phase, we’re going to release new beta snapshots roughly every other week. Lots of rendering changes. Our rendering contributors keep working on finalizing the implementation of all expected features for Godot 4.0,

Rendering: A ton of fixes for all rendering backends, and missing features implemented for the OpenGL3 one. GUI: Add a Font import option to pre-render all glyphs required for the translation ( GH-68448 ). Physics: Implement adjusting the maximum number of physics steps per rendered frame ( GH-65836 ).

debug settings, different bit depth, demo version of a game with less files, etc.). Other than that, some people from key companies were pretty amazed about the new renderer features we have and will be following our progress more closely! Many presets per same platform can be created with different export options. Seeing the code.

Thanks to the development work done by Alket Rexhepi and Bojidar Marinov , this frontend will soon reach the alpha status and be announced officially, so that all community members can start submitting assets to the library. As of the 2.1 New plugin API. Together with the Asset Library, we have introduced an EditorPlugin API for Godot.

Especially in hybrid rendering, where G-buffer or shadow maps are rasterized, it’s potentially beneficial to execute AS building on async compute. In hybrid rendering, using the same LOD for rasterization and ray tracing can be considered. Consider alpha testing instead of blending. LODs used for far-away objects can be simpler.
