This improves the workflow for animations in a single timeline.
The users are no longer forced to slice one animation named "default".
Instead users can choose which animation(s) to break and how.
Changes:
- Remove slicing options from the animation player import menu
- Add such options to the animation import menu
- Rename clips to slices wherever was left
* Ensures thread safety when resources are destroyed.
* Simplified API by always forcing `ResourceCache::get_ref`, which needs less hacks and is fully thread safe.
* Removed RWLock for resources because its not possible to use for the new logic. Should not be a problem.
Supersedes #57533
* Map is unnecessary and inefficient in almost every case.
* Replaced by the new HashMap.
* Renamed Map to RBMap and Set to RBSet for cases that still make sense
(order matters) but use is discouraged.
There were very few cases where replacing by HashMap was undesired because
keeping the key order was intended.
I tried to keep those (as RBMap) as much as possible, but might have missed
some. Review appreciated!
Adds a new, cleaned up, HashMap implementation.
* Uses Robin Hood Hashing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table#Robin_Hood_hashing).
* Keeps elements in a double linked list for simpler, ordered, iteration.
* Allows keeping iterators for later use in removal (Unlike Map<>, it does not do much
for performance vs keeping the key, but helps replace old code).
* Uses a more modern C++ iterator API, deprecates the old one.
* Supports custom allocator (in case there is a wish to use a paged one).
This class aims to unify all the associative template usage and replace it by this one:
* Map<> (whereas key order does not matter, which is 99% of cases)
* HashMap<>
* OrderedHashMap<>
* OAHashMap<>
These typedefs don't save much typing compared to the full `Ref<Resource>`
and `Ref<RefCounted>`, yet they sometimes introduce confusion among
new contributors.
Added the ability to import scenes as AnimationLibrary
* Completes implementation of https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/4296
* Helps if you want to export animations to a separate file (say a GLTF) to avoid re-importing/exporting them every time the model changes.
* Helps if you simply want to have animations using a dummy model, which can be shared across multiple models.
Creates a secondary scene importer used only for animations.
**NOTE**: A new flag for scene importer: EditorSceneFormatImporter.IMPORT_DISCARD_MESHES_AND_MATERIALS has been added, to hint importers that they should skip meshes and animations (and hence make importing faster). It is not implemented in any importer yet, this should be done in a separate PR.
* Instead of containing single animations, AnimationPlayer now contains libraries.
* Libraries, in turn, contain the animations.
This paves the way for implementing the possibility of importing scenes as animation libraries, finally allowing to import animations separate from the 3D models.
Missing (will be done on separate PRs):
* Make it possible to import scenes (dae/fbx/gltf) as animation libraries.
* Make it possible for AnimationTree to import animation libraries on its own, so it does not rely on AnimationPlayer for everything.
This has several benefits:
- Baking is now significantly faster out of the box (often twice as fast).
- Lightmap texture file sizes are often divided by 2 or 3.
- Baking requires less memory and is less likely to crash on large scenes.
Visual quality may be degraded, but it's usually not very noticeable
in the default configuration where only indirect lighting is baked.
Improvements:
* Occluder3D is now an abstract type inherited by: ArrayOccluder3D, QuadOccluder3D, BoxOccluder3D, SphereOccluder3D and PolygonOccluder3D. ArrayOccluder3D serves the same purpose as the old Occluder3D (triangle mesh occluder) while the rest are primitives that can be used to manually place simple occluders.
* Occluder baking can now apply simplification. The "bake_simplification_distance" property can be used to set a world-space distance as the desired maximum error, set to 0.1 by default.
* Occluders can now be generated on import. Using the "occ" and "occonly" keywords (similar to "col" and "colonly" for colliders) or by enabling on MeshInstance3Ds in the scene's import window.
Fixes:
* Fixed saving of occluder files after bake.
* Fixed a small error where occluders didn't correctly update in the rendering server.
Bonus content:
* Generalized "CollisionPolygon3DEditor" so it can also be used to edit Resources. Renamed it to "Polygon3DEditor" since it was already being used by other things, not just colliders.
* Fixed a small bug in "EditorPropertyArray" where a call to "remove" was left after the "remove_at" rename.
This was changed in #56943 to allow adding new importers from plugins that
take precedence over built-in ones, but this should be opt-in, not the default
behavior.
Fixes#57730.
This also renames the Static Lightmaps option hint to be more explicit
about which GI techniques are supported (as VoxelGI/SDFGI can still
be used with Static Lightmaps).
A common source of errors is to call functions (such as round()) expecting them to work in place, but them actually being designed only to return the processed value. Not using the return value in this case in indicative of a bug, and can be flagged as a warning by using the [[nodiscard]] attribute.
-Allows displaying custom options for specific file format variants
-Added support for scene format import to retrieve custom options
This PR is necessary for #54886 to be implemented properly.
