Chunk tilemap physics The current implementation of TileMapLayer uses individual collision bodies for every single cell, which is extremely wasteful and a likely cause of runtime performance issues for 2D scenes relying on physics. Animation: Support hiding functions calls in Method Tracks ( GH-96421 ).
Some of the most notables feature changes in this update are: Animation: Add track validator to AnimationPlayerEditor to detect tracks which have error ( GH-68770 ). Animation: Refactor process of animation to retrive keys more exactly ( GH-69336 ). Physics: Fix collision detection for degenerate capsules ( GH-69657 ).
For shaders, we removed the now-redundant SCREEN_TEXTURE , DEPTH_TEXTURE , and NORMAL_ROUGHNESS_TEXTURE ( GH-70967 ). Animation: Tweak the name for new animations in the editor ( GH-48570 ). Animation: Add next/reset function to AnimationStateMachine ( GH-71264 ). Add astcenc compression and decompression ( GH-70363 ).
A refactor of Animation APIs to change the stop(reset: bool) to two separate stop() and pause() methods ( GH-71218 ), as was heavily requested by the community. Physics fixes and improvements for sphere-capsule, sphere-box, sphere-cylinder, and capsule-cylinder collisions ( GH-70660 , GH-70787 ). See the list below. See the list below.
This beta includes a few big changes which may interest a lot of users: Animated sprites, both 2D and 3D, now support options for more precise timing of individual frames ( GH-65609 ). Animation: Add animation_started/finished signals to AnimationTree and fix time accuracy in StateMachine ( GH-70278 ).

Custom shaders Gain control over your game’s visual style and performance by creating custom shaders. Shader programming allows you to manipulate lighting, textures, and visual effects, resulting in unique and optimized visuals. Optimize performance Keep performance in mind throughout development.
We also support Compute Shader capabilities. Render Graph The Render Pipeline customization based on Render Graph will be officially available to developers in version 3.8. It will support the implementation of engine builtin Custom Pipeline and the default Deferred Pipeline. AGP upgraded to 8.0.2. AGP upgraded to 8.0.2.
Animation: Add animation "reset" track feature ( GH-44558 ). Shaders: Add support for structs and fragment-to-light varyings ( GH-48075 ). Animation: Add animation "reset" track featurex ( GH-44558 ). Animation: Fix Tween active state and repeat after stop() and then start() ( GH-47142 ).

x is that, several times, sprites are separated in many nodes in order to be animated or assembled. If a shader is applied to them, or if transparency is changed, the effect is applied to every node individually, given they each do it in their own draw call. This has been added for 4.0 thanks to the new DirectionalLight2D node.
Animation: Fix AnimationNode has_filter not being called in scripts ( GH-64560 ). Animation: Fix potential bug with node rename in BlendTree editor ( GH-65651 ). Animation: Fix crash when playing SceneTreeTween right after finishing ( GH-65896 ). iOS: Workaround WebKit/ANGLE shader compilation bug for WebGL 2.0 ( GH-64811 ).
Animation: Fix AnimationNode has_filter not being called in scripts ( GH-64560 ). Animation: Fix potential bug with node rename in BlendTree editor ( GH-65651 ) [regression fix]. Animation: Fix crash when playing SceneTreeTween right after finishing ( GH-65896 ). Audio: Make audio thread control flags safe ( GH-64608 ).
A long-standing Bullet regression has finally been fixed ( GH-56801 ), solving issues with KinematicBody collisions on edges (e.g. and included in this release candidate are: Asynchronous shader compilation + caching (ubershader) ( GH-53411 ). A long awaited solution to shader compilation stuttering on OpenGL, courtesy Pedro J.
This RC 6 has a few notable changes compared to the previous build: In RC 4, async shader compilation and caching was enabled by default on desktop, but several users reported issues with it on some hardware. You can enable it in the Project Settings ( rendering/gles3/shaders/shader_compilation_mode ). Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!
and included in this release candidate are: Asynchronous shader compilation + caching (ubershader) ( GH-53411 ). A long awaited solution to shader compilation stuttering on OpenGL, courtesy Pedro J. Animation: Add option to paste animation as duplicate ( GH-60226 ). The main changes coming in Godot 3.5
We want Godot to be accessible to programmers, animators, and character artists. One primary example is character animation support, where mistakes and corrupted animations abound. In some cases, broken animations could take enomous effort to correct. In some cases, broken animations could take enomous effort to correct.

You can even create complex dynamic effects by writing custom shaders that operate on FogVolume nodes. is introducing sky shaders which allow users to create dynamic skies that update in real time (including reflections). For more information see the article introducing sky shaders. For other atmospheric effects, Godot 4.0

Shader language features. Revamped collision layer grid in the inspector. Other areas: Animation "reset" track. Shader language features. Our shader language maintainer Yuri Roubinsky ( Chaosus ) is busy doing magic on the development branch for Godot 4.0, Improve the animation bezier editor.
Revamped animation editor. Visual shader editor. Some shader features will not work and throw an error when used (which is to be expected when using an older OpenGL version). As this back-end is intended to run on the lowest end hardware possible, shaders need to be kept very small. Revamped animation editor.
Our script editor maintainer, Paul Batty ( Paulb23 ), implemented initial support for multi-caret editing in TextEdit, which is therefore usable in the GDScript and shader editors, as well as any other multi-line text field in the editor. Animation: Add animation slices for individual animations ( GH-40274 ).
