It's been a month since the second progress report , and progress continues towards the new Godot renderer. Add Layered/Stencil rendering. renderer works entirely in linear space (Gamma is no longer supported). The new GI probe implementation in Godot is a game changer, and gives Godot 3.0 Introduction. Implement Decals.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. This document was written in hopes to find more developers that would like to help us write rendering code, as it explains the overall design.

This is a challenging task, even in cinematic rendering, because it is difficult to find all the paths of light that contribute meaningfully to an image. Solving this problem through brute force requires hundreds, sometimes thousands of paths per pixel, but this is far too expensive for real-time rendering.
