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. This has been a major limitation in both the quality of lightmap baking and the ergonomics of the lightmap baking workflow.
Notably, Windows users could experience crashes when baking lightmaps. Games exported with a ZIP data package could also trigger a crash on exit. Additionally, this release includes a number of non-regression bug fixes to various areas of the engine. was thus subject to this crash when baking lightmaps.
Physics: Add debug colours and fills to CollisionPolygon3D ( GH-101810 ). Rendering: Bake UV2 emission using half float in the compatibility backend ( GH-101730 ). Baking a Lightmap3D is more prone to crash after we added support for transparency. Network: Fix peer stuck in CLOSING state ( GH-101760 ).
UE4 plugin (Download here ) Leveraging the power of ray tracing, RTXGI provides scalable solutions to compute multi-bounce indirect lighting without bake times, light leaks, or expensive per-frame costs. To get started adding NVIDIA Reflex to your game, check out our easy step by step integration guide. RTXGI 1.1.40
Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. There are also some new debug modes to visualize how SDFGI is working: SDFGI Cascades: Show the world as SDF, helps you understand what voxel sizes are, so you adjust your geometry to work better with those voxel sizes.
New tools New debugging tools like the BVH viewer and Ray Timing Visualization allows developers to get a handle on ray tracing cost in their scene and get it tuned for speed. NVIDIA RTX UE4.26 The new NVIDIA UE4.26 Some of these are tunable, some are automatic.
If you use and enjoy Godot, plan to use it, or want support the cause of having a mature, high quality free and open source gameengine, then please consider becoming our patron. Raise errors when accessing deleted objects in debug. Raise errors when accessing deleted objects in debug. macOS: ARM64 build, code signing.
RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) Leveraging the power of ray tracing, the RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) SDK provides scalable solutions to compute multi-bounce indirect lighting without bake times, light leaks, or expensive per-frame costs. Unity has announced that DLSS will be natively supported in Unity Engine version 2021.2
Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, gameengines. As for DirectX12, it's only relevant for Windows/UWP, so there is no strong incentive for us to support it as a cross-platform engine. I'm not trying to say that these APIs are useless, though.
Thanks to all pre-release testers who help us find and debug regressions! Core: Disable decayment of freed Objects to null in debug builds ( GH-41866 ). Rendering: Disable lights for objects with baked lighting ( GH-41629 ). Things should now be in a pretty good shape and we hope to be able to release 3.2.4 stable soon™.
Core: Complain if casting a freed object in a debug session ( GH-51095 ). Core: Add detailed error messages to release builds (used to be debug-only) ( GH-53405 ). Editor: Fix logic for showing tilemap debug collision shapes ( GH-49075 ). Editor: Add custom debug shape thickness and color options to RayCast ( GH-49726 ).

The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Debugger: Add --debug-server command line option to listen for incoming connections ( GH-60819 ). Rendering: CPU lightmapper: Account for ambient light settings when baking lights ( GH-62260 ).

This was a late addition in 3.2.4 RC 3, please report any Thread , Mutex or Semaphore -related issue that you might encounter. Core: Add append_array method to Array class ( GH-43398 ).

This adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Debugger: Add --debug-server command line option to listen for incoming connections ( GH-60819 ). back in 2020! Core: Add search methods for pool arrays ( GH-60856 ). Editor: Improve ColorPicker presets ( GH-54439 ).
The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Debugger: Add --debug-server command line option to listen for incoming connections ( GH-60819 ). And then a lot of old and new navigation issues have been fixed by smix8 and Pawel Lampe ( Scony ).
Here you can see the Sponza demo model, with baked direct lighting, and the corresponding light map: Note that this first pass is not taking occlusion into account yet. While making medium to large scale games in Godot, many small bugs start to creep in that cannot be caught by the compiler. That will be added in the following weeks.
