Implement Particle Shaders, with support for: Sorting, Collision and Soft Particles. Shadow atlases exist for Spot and Omni lights (Directional uses its own texture, and multiple directional lights need several passes). How the atlas texture is organized is up to the user, though the default is sensible enough to work in most cases.

glTF is a growing 3D format and has received massive adoption in the game industry. Commonly selected as the format for new software and game engines, glTF can also have new functionality added using extensions. For example, VRM allows cel-shaded characters with custom hair, clothing and collisions. bin + textures).
