Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. This document was written in hopes to find more developers that would like to help us write rendering code, as it explains the overall design. Running the whole graphics rendering in a separate thread.

There is always some layer of abstraction between the physical computer and the application that you are building, but you can’t optimize and debug what you can’t see. By providing low-level insights to inform debugging, developer tools help eliminate the need to brute-force solutions.

Analysis The whole effect can be split into two parts, one for the simulation of the mesh and one for the rendering of the mesh. Rendering is even more straightforward, just use the Graphic component and draw lines directly. Combined with the knowledge of the rendering, the texture is actually very close to the rendering vertex data.

I will go more in-depth about shadow-mapping later, for now just know that in order to show shadows, the scene needs to be rendered from the perspective of each light and the result has to be saved. For the GLES2 renderer, I had to implement the interface for those shadow atlases.

Hello, @pandamicro and team, I was debugging Cocos Creator performance issue on the Chromium-based browser running on Mac.

I noticed a strange behavior regarding the size of the Dom nodes.

As most of the rendering features for the upcoming Godot 4.0 are done, I have spent the past two months optimizing the rendering engine, both on the CPU and GPU side. All this work has resulted in significantly faster rendering times. A lot of the render state is now better cached, so less is done at render time.
