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.
Also finally move freetype to its own env and disable warnings for it.
Still needs some work to fix the awkward situation of the freetype and
svg modules used in scene/ and editor/ respectively.
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.
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
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!
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
This allows us not to have to hack our definitions in the upstream files,
making it easier to upgrade to newer versions in the future.
For the include paths to work, the headers are moved to a GL subfolder to
match their upstream location.
