Godot for AA/AAA game development - What's missing?

Mircosoft Game Dev

supports advanced global illumination techniques such as lightmapping (including SH lightmapping), Voxel GI (which is fully real-time) and SDFGI (which is a single click, open world GI solution). Mesh streaming : Models are loaded as low detail (few vertices). GPUParticlesMaterial resource (or even an optional dedicated shader).

Introducing the new "last minute" lightmapper

Mircosoft Game Dev

This generally works and looks pretty, but it's quite shader intensive, which makes it not work on mobile or low end GPUs. The biggest challenge of this workflow is not the lightmap itself, but the fact that it should be easy to use (which is Godot's #1 design priority). The smaller this value, the bigger the lightmaps will be.

GSoC 2022 - Progress report #1

Mircosoft Game Dev

Project: Allow undocking the Script editor and the Shader editor. In this project, I'll focus to make the Script editor and the Shader editor undockable, and keep the undocked windows after editor restarts. Detaching the Script editor and the Shader editor is done for the most part. Also, there are some bugs to be fixed.

Cocos Creator 3.7.2 Focuses On Optimized Rendering And Lighting Capabilities

Cocos

Fixed an issue where Mesh objects created through MeshUtils.createMesh caused data anomalies. Fixed an issue where the setter for the Mesh:: _ hash attribute was not bound. When the user turns on high-precision lightmap baking, 16-bit colors are used instead of 8-bit colors, and AO channels are baked separately.
