This is the second blog post describing enhancements for visual shaders and shader scripts landed in Godot 3.2. Since the previous update, I've (Chaosus) spent much time and effort adding a lot of new things to enhance the overall experience developing shaders. Shader changes. First, let's have a look at shader scripts.

USD is different from our previous format in that it can be edited in different tools, such as Houdini. Unlike previous formats, USD compositions can be used to edit data in a non-destructive manner. USD solves these problems as compositions can be used for nondestructive editing, so that you can smoothly move between multiple tools.

When doing tasks such as shader editing, VFX (particles) or animation, there is a large difference between Godot and engines such as Unreal. As an example, editing a particle system in Godot means a lot of subsystems must be understood and used in combination: GPUParticles node. Specialized artist UIs.
