The modern one does rendering via RenderingDevice (which is implemented in drivers such as Vulkan, Direct3D 12, and more in the future). Rendering is significantly more efficient in Godot 4.0, Low level rendering access.

The video below shows the F1 car in a PBR renderer a made a while back. Now that I knew what my kids wanted, I tried to render the car in the Untold Engine, and it failed to load. The reason is that the engine associates one entity id to one mesh. The model had several meshes. The car's steering sucks.

And even before an era of SRPs (Scriptable Render Pipelines), there was a good amount of solid features like today’s topic: Render textures. In this post I’m going to explain to you how to use render textures in your game. using legacy rendering, but the features I used work in SRPs too. What is a Render Texture.

This chapter is all about how I solved it (so far) to be able to place all kinds of assets like 3D-meshes or self-growing fractal seeds on the terrain. Let’s assume we do it for each vertex on a mesh with let’s say 10’000 vertices.   Asset placement - depending on mesh height vertices. Before we start.

Each image part was converted to mesh. The USP of Spine animation software is how smoothly it converts an image part to mesh. In each mesh vertices are placed to define how we want to move the character. Bones are created to help the mesh move and provide fine-tuned control. It is these vertices which can be moved.

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. If I can pass this texture in between the direct rendering, then I get a 2D real fabric.

As many of you have probably heard, a new rendering backend is being worked on for Godot. Our goal is to have a modern, clustered renderer that supports everything mainstream engines support, including PBR, global illumination and flexible shader editing. Refactor the rendering API to make it easier to understand (and contribute to!).

Digital sculpting software, however, uses an extremely high-resolution polygon mesh (or a voxel grid). This mesh can be modeled like traditional clay with a vast array of tools, giving modelers more freedom and flexibility in their work. This is similar to the limitations of physical sculptures.

This is also a stage where you should not rush in order to get a perfect mesh flow. I used a Blinn Shader on the asset to spot any issues with the mesh. A high poly mesh model of the gun came into being. Then I unwrapped the low poly mesh model into three UV sets in order to get a good resolution of the textures.
