Normally our Beta 1 release notes summarize all the most exciting changes from the previous dev releases. Add transparency support for LightmapGI Currently when baking lightmaps users have to choose between transparent objects casting shadows as if they were fully opaque, or not casting shadows at all. down to 0.2 ( GH-97281 ).
So many games have that question baked into their core. And many of the regular tricks that devs use to save on rendering costs are lost when building VR games. “It If the frame rate drops too much, or there’s a problem with the floor collision, and you fall off the map, it can be extra bad for the player.
Runtime navigation mesh baking. Collision avoidance support. Now the NavigationRegion can be added during gameplay, and it's possible to change its transform or even bake the navigation mesh data at runtime. The agent is also responsible for avoiding collisions. Collision avoidance dynamic map updates. Character.
Allows collisions against the physics world. Baked SDF Collision. Still, for complex interiors, creating all the collisions with boxes and spheres can be a hassle. It bakes an area of a custom resolution as a signed distance field. For this, heightfield collision has more advantages. Less flexible.
Multiple fixes to one-way collisions , handling many cases where collisions would not work reliably. Multiple fixes to one-way collisions (new in beta 6). Physics: Fix multiple issues with one-way collisions ( GH-42574 ). Rendering: Disable lights for objects with baked lighting ( GH-41629 ).
Welcome back to the newest issue of the Kristala Dev Blog, a monthly compilation chronicling all the magic and mystery the Astral Clocktower Studios dev team puts into indie ARPG Kristala every development sprint. Stay tuned for updates in future Kristala dev blog issues. We can't wait to see what else he has in store.
Navigation: Exclude disabled StaticBody collisions from NavigationMesh baking ( GH-65775 ). Physics: Hack a hot fix for Bullet's collision margin regression ( GH-64875 ). The downloads for this dev snapshot can be found directly on our repository: Standard build (GDScript, GDNative, VisualScript).
Physics: Many fixes to one-way collisions. Fixes to KinematicBody collisions. Cylinder collision shape for GodotPhysics. It was reusing parts of the code for baking GIProbes, and that made it quick but not great in terms of quality. Many fixes to one-way collisions. One-way collisions prior to Godot 3.3
Implement Particle Shaders, with support for: Sorting, Collision and Soft Particles. It must be pre-baked for dynamic scenario geometry, but it offers support for full dynamic lights and dynamic objects. Implement the new version of the Godot SVO-based Light Baker. Implement post process effects: DOF Blur, Bloom and Tone Mapping.
Multiple fixes to one-way collisions. Physics: Fix multiple issues with one-way collisions ( GH-42574 ). Physics: Allow CollisionObject to show collision shape meshes ( GH-45783 ). Rendering: Disable lights for objects with baked lighting ( GH-41629 ). In either case, be sure to report the problem on GitHub.

The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Physics: Bullet: KinematicBody compound shape collision fix ( GH-56801 ). Fixes a lot of issues with KinematicBody collisions at the intersection between meshes when using Bullet.

A long-standing Bullet regression has finally been fixed ( GH-56801 ), solving issues with KinematicBody collisions on edges (e.g. The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. seen as small bumps between tiles on a GridMap).

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Those now come with support for attractors, collision , trails , sub-emitters and manual emission. This included adding new collision shapes, cylinder and heightmap , as well as re-implementing SoftBody nodes.
Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. Still, this workflow is easy and efficient as 3D objects get a second set of UVs generated on import, and baking works with instantiated meshes, scenes and even GridMaps. Both indirect light and voxel reflections are provided by this technique.
Use baked lightmaps instead. In particular, it solves a major pain point for new Godot users by no longer offering scaling handles for collision shapes, but letting you directly change their size instead. As this back-end is intended to run on the lowest end hardware possible, shaders need to be kept very small. New TileSet editor.
