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!
This was the behaviour when building Godot 2.1, which allows to build against
Ubuntu 12.04 and its freetype that links old libpng12, while still bundling
libpng16.
This reverts commits 5fa1bb331a
and ec4be71fad.
Looks like Debian/Ubuntu are not even shipping libpng16 nowadays in their
stable releases, we'll have to go back to statically linking our own
libpng16 to wait for them to stop being 5 years behind everybody.
Not fully happy about the way this one interacts with the various
platforms. Maybe the platform_config.h should be generated by the
SCsub instead of passing a define just to know where is the header.
-Most 2D drawing is implemented
-Missing shaders
-Missing all 3D
-Editor needs to be set on update always to be used, otherwise it does not refresh
-Large parts of editor not working
-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-
-Small fixes in canvas item light shader
-Fixed compilation in server target
-Export for Android makes 32 bits display as default
-changed version to 1.1beta1

Build System:
-Big clean up of SCons, changed how builds are done to a much cleaner method (check the Github Wiki for instructions).
-Deactivated BlackBerry10 (sorry), if no mantainer found (or BlackBerry does not send us a Passort ;), platform will be removed as we have no longer devices to test.
Engine:
-Removed deprecated object and scene format (was in there just for compatibility, not in use since a long time).
-Added ability to open scenes even if a node type was removed (will try to guess the closest type).
-Removed deprecated node types.

3D Physics:
-Fixed "Bounce" parameter in 3D
-Fixed bug affecting Area (sometims it would not detect properly)
-Vehicle Body has seen heavy work
-Added Query API for doing space queries in 3D. Needs some docs though.
-Added JOINTS! Adapted Bullet Joints: and created easy gizmos for setting them up:
-PinJoint
-HingeJoint (with motor)
-SliderJoint
-ConeTwistJoint
-Generic6DOFJoint
-Added OBJECT PICKING! based on the new query API. Any physics object now (Area or Body) has the following signals and virtual functions:
-input_event (mouse or multitouch input over the body)
-mouse_enter (mouse entered the body area)
-mouse_exit (mouse exited body area)
For Area it needs to be activated manually, as it isn't by default (ray goes thru).
Other:
-Begun working on Windows 8 (RT) port. Compiles but does not work yet.
-Added TheoraPlayer library for improved to-texture and portable video support.
-Fixed a few bugs in the renderer, collada importer, collada exporter, etc.
