Those typically shouldn’t add instability to the engine, but may require doing some changes in your scripts, scenes, and shaders if you were using the affected APIs. As a side-effect, projects that used StyleBoxTexture for controls that relied on the old center rect code, such as ScrollBars, will need readjustment.

Since I want to be able to help out with more rendering related tasks in the future, in places where existing code could be re-used, I am rewriting those parts myself to get a better understanding of the code. generate C++ classes for GLSL shaders at compile time. adapt shader compiler to work with GLSL ES 2.0.

Optimize any part of your game by rewriting it transparently in C++, or any language that can compiled to native code for the target platform, wihout recompiling the engine or templates. While we offer a default particles material (which is very powerful and customizable), it is possible to write your own particle logic entirely in a shader.

Mainly I focused on generating grass that bends in the wind and some fern like plants, but what comes next is usable for all kind of meshes. Batching means to combine mesh objects that share the same material or that are marked as static in the Unity inspector. In my case I had terrible FPS with just some thousand mesh instances.

One of the key components of the SDK is Shader Execution Reordering (SER), a new scheduling system that reorders shading work on-the-fly for better execution efficiency. An NVIDIA API extension, it is useful for ray-traced workloads, as it achieves maximum parallelism and performance from path tracing shaders.

In order to deform the mesh according to the bone transforms, each vertex (generally "point of a triangle") can be influenced by up to 4 bones. The actual deformation usually happens in the vertex shader , where the bone transforms get looked up from a texture. (In added TIME uniform to all "scriptable" shaders.

Flagging instances or geometries as opaque allows uninterrupted hardware intersection search and prevents invocation of the any-hit shader.

This generally works and looks pretty, but it's quite shader intensive, which makes it not work on mobile or low end GPUs. First of all, you need to make sure your meshes have an UV2 layer. Godot lightmapper works with one texture per mesh, so sharing UVs between meshes will not give you more optimization.
