3D: Add flag to enable use of accurate path tangents for polygon rotation in CSGPolygon3D ( GH-94479 ). Rendering: Bake UV2 emission using half float in the compatibility backend ( GH-101730 ). Shaders: Fix space transformations in WorldPositionFromDepth visual shader node generation ( GH-100350 ).

Core: Handle corner cases for curve baking ( GH-69726 ). If you have existing scenes and resources with navigation polygons and meshes, you might want to skip beta 9 and wait for beta 10 in a few days so that your scenes and resources are ported seamlessly. Shaders: Fix the sorting of shader uniforms ( GH-70016 ).

The new lightmapper is GPU based written mostly on Compute shaders (meaning it does most of the heavy lifting using the GPU, via Vulkan). Most scenes bake in seconds instead of minutes or hours. Allows baking dynamic and static lights. Performs AI-based denoiser on the final bake, to ensure lightmaps are as smooth as possible.

Nevertheless, I also spent some money on the Advanced Foliage Shaders v.5. Simply to get rid of the annoying fact of not being able to handle the grass geometry shader I wrote about in the last post , due to my poor CG programming knowledge. I just toggled the “Baked Pivots” option in the shader to ON.

Implement Particle Shaders, with support for: Sorting, Collision and Soft Particles. Improve Culling: Portals (rewrite as polygon-based) and Rooms. It must be pre-baked for dynamic scenario geometry, but it offers support for full dynamic lights and dynamic objects. TODO for Milestone #4 (January 2017). Implement Decals.

and included in this beta are: Asynchronous shader compilation + caching (ubershader) ( GH-53411 ). A long awaited solution to shader compilation stuttering on OpenGL, courtesy Pedro J. This adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. Estébanez ( RandomShaper )!
