Dev snapshot: Godot 4.4 beta 1

Mircosoft Game Dev

GH-98163 ) CSGMesh3D now explicitly requires the mesh to be manifold. A manifold mesh must be closed, have each edge connected to only two faces, and have volume. Commonly, this means that it needs to be a watertight mesh without any holes and where you can never see the backside of the triangles. ( Import 4.4

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

Mircosoft Game Dev

Additionally, the modern backend can implement rendering methods , such as forward clustered, mobile, and more in the future (such as deferred clustered, cinematic, etc.). and is intended to run on very old PC hardware as well as most older (still working) mobile phones. Mesh streaming : Models are loaded as low detail (few vertices).

3D Content Interoperability with Topology-Free Modeling

Nvidia

Topology-based 3D models have limited interoperability due to the topology creation process The Shapeyard solution Shapeyard, available on a variety of mobile devices, is proving to be a powerful and user-friendly 3D modeling tool. Digital sculpting software, however, uses an extremely high-resolution polygon mesh (or a voxel grid).

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 solution to these problems is to add support for a more traditional lightmapper (pre-baked light texture). Light is precomputed offline and rendered to a texture, which is then used by the geometry.

Pushing Unity to the Limit: How to Optimize Performance for AAA-Quality Gameplay 

iXie gaming

Textures, geometry, and audio assets that arent optimised can easily strain memory and GPU resources. Textures: Use texture atlases, apply compression formats suited to your target platform (e.g., ASTC for mobile, DXT5 for PC), and eliminate over-resolved images. Switching pipelines mid-project is rarely advisable.
