New improvements for GPUParticles in Godot 4.0

Mircosoft Game Dev

Allows collisions against the physics world. They are dynamic and can be moved around in real-time, colliding with any particle system which matches the cull mask. Baked SDF Collision. Still, for complex interiors, creating all the collisions with boxes and spheres can be a hassle. Less flexible. Particles in Godot 4.0

Dev snapshot: Godot 4.0 beta 11

Mircosoft Game Dev

Over the course of the last four months the engine has seen many changes, making it more stable and feature complete, and it's getting very close to the state that we would be happy with. More engine enums are now bound with BitField, making their usage more type-safe, especially in C# ( GH-71037 , GH-71045 , GH-71116 ). beta releases.

Godot 3.4 is released with major features and UX polish

Mircosoft Game Dev

Donations and corporate grants play a vital role in enabling us to develop Godot at this sustained pace, since they are our only source of income, and are used 100% to pay developers to work on the engine.

Why does Godot use Servers and RIDs?

Mircosoft Game Dev

Previous engines we have developed (we as in Juan Linietsky and Ariel Manzur) did not really use this architecture and everything was provided via simple classes with inheritance and polymorphism. This was fine, as our engine ran in a single thread (which was common, as most CPU architectures were single-core back then).

The next big step: Godot 4.0 reaches Beta

Mircosoft Game Dev

beta just yet as we expect the engine to be unstable until we have more testing done. Throughout the last two years the core of the engine has seen a lot of improvements and refactoring to bring it to the next level in terms of maintainability, reliability, and performance. We don’t recommend migrating large projects to the Godot 4.0
