Fixed Toon shader data issue on iOS Wechat. Fixed the terrain as too dark, caused by the lighting calculation issue in the builtin-terrain material. Fixed crash issue when baking high-precision Lightmap for the terrain. . ● Fixed error caused by removeSpotLight on native platforms. Fixed pre-backed AO calculation issue.

Since the last post I’ve been working on the terrain’s vegetation. Doing it before starting the actual game would mean to already generate all the content that needs to be batched at the beginning, which is no solution for a theoretically “endless procedurally generated” terrain. That’s it. When

If you want to learn more about how fractal noise works and some other terrain generation techniques I strongly recommend this article by Red Blob Games. But the true power of noise textures becomes available when used in combination with text shaders: Getting started. The examples below have been updated accordingly.

Fixed the issue where the selected texture layer could not be painted again after reselecting the terrain node, and the texture layer needed to be switched to paint. Fixed the issue where the terrain editing information was lost after entering prefab editing and returning to the scene.

Fixed an issue where the main light source still acted on the terrain after baking. Optimize the experience of the Roaming Scene Editor scroll wheel/touchpad.

It’s the shader cache from last game but different wording and no longer just a toggle. Click on Quality 4. Scroll down, locate Spot Cache and change it to High or Ultra If you’re experiencing stuttering on PC, change “spot cache” in graphics settings to high or ultra. Assume many just threw it on low.

Editor: Add multi-caret support to TextEdit (and the script/shader editors) ( GH-61902 ).

reduz is always quick to respond on IRC, although he is busy developing new features for Godot (during that time, he finished the new Animation editor, the new AnimationTree and visual shader editor. Textures, normal maps and some of the BSDF shaders are already well supported. I am mentored by sdfgeoff and reduz. Amazing!!).

One of the most common uses for IK in 3D is to place a character's feet on uneven ground without clipping through the geometry, where the legs realistically adjust to the terrain. Because the motions that IK creates is completely done in real-time, animations created via IK can be changed at any time. That's it for this progress report!

We knew that we needed custom modifications for destructible terrain, dynamic lightning, and support for thousands of swarm monsters. Another thing that was quite useful is the option to quickly test shaders. Being able to see the results of a shader the moment you change some code makes development so much better.

For example here, notice if I drag in this new material on my rock the rock doesn’t match my terrain texture at all. In order to bring those colors closer together, I can just open my object shaders color tab and bring those colors closer together. This will help a bit. But in my world I expect to have a lot of rough edges.
