Dev snapshot: Godot 4.4 beta 1

Add transparency support for LightmapGI Currently when baking lightmaps users have to choose between transparent objects casting shadows as if they were fully opaque, or not casting shadows at all. This has been a major limitation in both the quality of lightmap baking and the ergonomics of the lightmap baking workflow.

Cocos Creator 3.7.2 Focuses On Optimized Rendering And Lighting Capabilities

Cocos

Engine • Added DebugView at runtime UI control rendering debugging function. See the documentation “Render Debugging - Run Time Using Render debugging”: [link] • When the node animates, add the tween ‘destroySelf’ method to destroy the front nodal point. Still, the disadvantage is that it will increase the lightmap package.

Maintenance release: Godot 3.3.2

Mircosoft Game Dev

Notably, Windows users could experience crashes when baking lightmaps. Import: Print a warning when importing a repeating NPOT texture in a GLES2 project ( GH-48817 ). Physics: Fix crash on debug shapes update if CollisionObject is not in tree ( GH-48974 ). was thus subject to this crash when baking lightmaps.

Godot 4.0 gets SDF based real-time global illumination

Mircosoft Game Dev

SDFGI is something akin to a dynamic real-time lightmap (but it does not requiere unwrapping, nor does it use textures). This new technique was developed entirely in the open and implemented under our MIT license, so anyone is welcome to use it in their own engines and games. What can it do?

GLES2 and GDNative, progress report #7

Mircosoft Game Dev

A DirectionalLight needs their own space, but using single textures for each other light would be pretty wasteful, so what is used as an optimization is a Shadow Atlas. Sounds easy enough, but in practice it took me maaaaany hours of debugging and guesswork. Just believe me that it was a relief after so many hours of debugging :D.
