As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
Implement Octahedral Compression for normal/tangent vectors
*Oct32 for uncompressed vectors
*Oct16 for compressed vectors
Reduces vertex size for each attribute by
*Uncompressed: 12 bytes, vec4<float32> -> vec2<unorm16>
*Compressed: 2 bytes, vec4<unorm8> -> vec2<unorm8>
Binormal sign is encoded in the y coordinate of the encoded tangent
Added conversion functions to go from octahedral mapping to cartesian
for normal and tangent vectors
sprite_3d and soft_body meshes write to their vertex buffer memory
directly and need to convert their normals and tangents to the new oct
format before writing
Created a new mesh flag to specify whether a mesh is using octahedral
compression or not
Updated documentation to discuss new flag/defaults
Created shader flags to specify whether octahedral or cartesian vectors
are being used
Updated importers to use octahedral representation as the default format
for importing meshes
Updated ShaderGLES2 to support 64 bit version codes as we hit the limit
of the 32-bit integer that was previously used as a bitset to store
enabled/disabled flags
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Fixes GCC 5 warnings of the form:
core/io/http_client.cpp:288:9: warning: enumeration value 'STATUS_SSL_HANDSHAKE_ERROR' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
core/io/marshalls.cpp:806:9: warning: enumeration value 'AABB' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
Those can be trivial cases where adding a default fallback is the solution,
or more complex issues/hidden bugs where missed values are actually meant
to be handled.
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
This reverts commit f55039b194.
The GLES2 batching seems to require more testing and tweaking in order
to actually make the performance better on Android devices. It's been
proved with #21184 that the current implementation has it's drawbacks
therefore I suggest reverting the commit for now.
Adds GLES2 draw calls batching for the same render list item that uses
multiple rasterizer commands (e.g. Label node; a node with multiple
GDScript draw_* calls).
This commit unhacks some parts of the 3D rendering.
Most notably:
- possibility to use negative texture units
(no longer weird manual index allocation for user samplers)
- refactoring of light code, now sorts in a different way,
should yield better performance
- fixes a crash while saving (because of "Illegal instruction" execution)
when using a decent compiler (clang, it's clang. Thanks GCC for not telling me about UB).
This commit adds a new rendering backend, GLES2, and adds a
project setting to enable it.
Currently this backend can only be used on the X11 platform,
but integrating into other platforms is planned.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
This fixes HashMap where a key or part of a key is a floating point
number. To fix this the following has been done:
* HashMap now takes an extra template argument Comparator. This class
gets used to compare keys. The default Comperator now works correctly
for common types and floating point numbets.
* Variant implements ::hash_compare() now. This function implements
nan-safe comparison for all types with components that contain floating
point numbers.
* Variant now has a VariantComparator which uses Variant::hash_compare()
safely compare floating point components of variant's types.
* The hash functions for floating point numbers will now normalize NaN
values so that all floating point numbers that are NaN hash to the same
value.
C++ module writers that want to use HashMap internally in their modules
can now also safeguard against this crash by defining their on
Comperator class that safely compares their types.
GDScript users, or writers of modules that don't use HashMap internally
in their modules don't need to do anything.
This fixes#7354 and fixes#6947.
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
==========
-NOTIFICATION_WM_QUIT fixed on android (seems tha way this is reported changed in newer sdk)
-WIP implementation of APK Expansion APIs for publishing games larger than 50mb in Play Store
-Feaures in the new tutorials are all present in the sourcecode
-This (hopefully) should get rid of the animation list order getting corrupted
-Improved 3D Scene Importer (Skeletons, Animations and other stuff were not being merged). Anything missing?
-In code editor, the automatic syntax checker will only use file_exists() to check preload() else it might freeze the editor too much while typing if the preload is a big resource
-Fixed bugs in PolygonPathFinder, stil pending to do a node and a demo
-=-=-=-=-=-
-ESM Shadow Mapping for softer and less glitchy shadows
-HDR Pipeline (convert to Linear on texture import, convert to SRGB at the end)
-Fix to xml parse bug
