- Move all demo projects that don't require Forward+/Mobile-only features
to the Compatibility rendering method. This improves performance significantly
on low-end devices and ensures visuals are identical to a web export
of the demo.
- Set deadzone on all inputs to 0.2 for better gamepad usability.
- Remove reliance on `default_env.tres` to use built-in Environment
resources in the main scene instead (which follows the preview environment
workflow).
- Remove notices pointing to GDNative or VisualScript, since both were
removed in 4.0.
- Various bug fixes and usability tweaks to 10+ demos.
All demos were opened with Godot 4.2.1, with the mesh format
upgraded for 3D demos.
The 3D antialiasing demo now uses Extra Cull Margin on the last
object to prevent it from disappearing too early when the camera
rotates (due to its use of shader-based animation).
- Readd LightmapGI example.
- Allow toggling between the Once and Always update modes for the
ReflectionProbe.
- Add a Decal node to act as a blob shadow for dynamic objects.
- Halve SSAO intensity for a better apperance in the demo's flat,
bright surfaces.
- Halve ambient light sky contribution when using the disabled
or lightmap-based GI modes. This prevents the level's shaded areas
from looking too bright and blue (with lightmaps, this change only
affects dynamic objects.)
- Enable FXAA and debanding for a better appearance.
Port of the 3.x global illumination demo, with SDFGI support added
and screen-space lighting effect options added (SSAO, SSIL, or both).
Lightmap options were removed as I couldn't get both indirect-only
and fully baked lightmaps to work for now. They can be readded in the
future.
