Changing the resolution of a finished mesh (for a mobile game, for example) requires an even less detailed model to run efficiently, forcing the modeler to recreate it from scratch. Most game engines also require multiple levels of asset detailing, which requires the use of multiple assets and leads to additional production and running costs.

As many of you know, Vulkan will be the next open and multi platform rendering 2D and 3D API. CAD and 3D DCC applications will most likely continue to using OpenGL, but for anything related to games OpenGL will be no more. Other (commercial) game engines have set the bar high in this area. Waiting for Vulkan.

While not entirely rendering specific, a lot of nodes are being renamed. A very common complaint when using shadowmaps in Godot is that tweaking shadow bias is extremely difficult compared to other game engines.

This version worked well but we felt it was still far from the usability and features of a modern game engine. The more urgent issue was to improve the 2D engine so we worked hard again and released Godot 1.1, which did in fact improve 2D rendering considerably. Previously, only the root node of a scene was editable.
