We took a bit longer to prepare this beta as there were a number of fairly big GDScript refactoring PRs (needed to fix many bugs), which we wanted to merge all at once. Rendering: Use proper indices for lights, decals, and reflection probes in mobile scene shader ( GH-70929 ). Bug reports.
Rendering: Added Viewport canvas cull mask feature ( GH-52350 ). Rendering: Add texture reading code to OpenGL3 renderer for web and mobile ( GH-68138 ). See the GitHub issue tracker for a list of known bugs in the 4.0 Bug reports. Multiplayer: Add peer authentication support to the default MultiplayerAPI( GH-67917 ).
Additionally, the modern backend can implement rendering methods , such as forward clustered, mobile, and more in the future (such as deferred clustered, cinematic, etc.). and is intended to run on very old PC hardware as well as most older (still working) mobile phones. Rendering is significantly more efficient in Godot 4.0,

beta builds every other week to ensure that new features can be tested, bugs can be reported and bugfixes can be validated. This beta 4 is a small update with just 83 commits excluding merges, focusing on fixing bugs to stabilize the current feature set for 3.5 Anything behind the polygon will be culled from view. Bug reports.
beta builds every other week to ensure that new features can be tested, bugs can be reported and bugfixes can be validated. This beta adds what should be the last batch of new features (together with a lot of bug fixes, as that's our focus at this stage), with scene unique node names and the new SceneTreeTween backported from Godot 4.0.
beta builds every other week to ensure that new features can be tested, bugs can be reported and bugfixes can be validated. Following on from the addition of OccluderShapeSphere in 3.4 , lawnjelly now brings us a more adaptable and easy way to add basic occlusion culling in the form of the OccluderShapePolygon. Bug reports.
Rendering: Portal occlusion culling. Such use-after-free access needs to be guarded with is_instance_valid(obj) , but this has been surprisingly difficult to get right due to a number of bugs and inconsistencies between debug and release builds. Portal occlusion culling. Core: Promote object validity checks to release builds.
This is messy and will lead to hard-to-find bugs in the end. 5 Overusing cameras, especially on mobile devices. Learning how to use occlusion culling will also help you in this case. The solution? Use one static class that will store all the strings you’ll use in the project and call them from there.
Most of work was aimed at implementing missing features or fixing bugs which are critical for publishing 2D and 3D games with Godot 3.x, Since then, smix8 has taken over the custody of this area, fixing a lot of bugs and improving the feature set greatly, with the help of Pawel Lampe ( Scony ) and lawnjelly. Early adopters of 3.5

x updates with bug fixes, but also new features as long as they don't require breaking compatibility. x), we're going back to a stricter application of semantic versioning and those releases will only contain bug fixes and usability/documentation improvements. Various light culling fixes. When we released Godot 3.2
The goal between now and the stable release will be to continue polishing the current feature set by fixing bugs and optimizing performance. We ask that everyone join us in that – the sooner we fix the blocking bugs and release 4.0, We ask that everyone join us in that – the sooner we fix the blocking bugs and release 4.0,
release, we decided to take the chance to look at our long list of features and bug fixes that could not be implemented because it involved breaking compatibility. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. A year ago, we decided to skip the release of Godot 2.2
