This provides mouse sensitivity that is independent of the viewport
size, without needing to query for project settings.
This also inverts the mouse motion direction in the 3D navigation demo
to better match expectations, and increases mouse sensitivity in the
Window Management demo to be closer to other demos.
This avoids stuttering during world generation due to mutating
compound shapes being slow in Jolt Physics.
This is especially noticeable in the Flat Grass world due to
the higher number of voxels being generated.
- Add options for physics ticks per second, time scale, max physics steps per frame
and physics interpolation to the 2D and 3D physics tests demos.
- Physics ticks per second are always multiplied by time scale so that
time scale does not affect the physics simulation quality.
- Enable 4× MSAA for better debug shape display. Remove meshes/lights as
the debug collision fill make these unnecessary.
- Switch to the Mobile rendering method in the 2D physics tests demo
to allow for 2D MSAA, as it's not implemented in Compatibility yet.
- Improve collision shapes color in the 2D and 3D physics tests demos
for better visibility. Each PhysicsBody type now has its own collision
shape color.
- Allow placing/breaking blocks when further away (up to 5 blocks instead of 4).
- Add a background to the debug display to improve readability on bright backgrounds.
- Simplify coordinate display using the `%v` placeholder available in 4.3 onwards.
The 3D demos aren't very demanding and Godot has been optimized
a bit since 4.0's release, so we can afford using higher quality
shadow settings for less noisy shadow filtering.
This also tweaks shadow bias to reduce shadow acne in the Voxel demo.
The time slider in the Physical Light and Camera units demo now
allows for more precise adjustments.
This leads to code that is easier to understand and runs
faster thanks to GDScript's typed instructions.
The untyped declaration warning is now enabled on all projects
where type hints were added. All projects currently run without
any untyped declration warnings.
Dodge the Creeps and Squash the Creeps demos intentionally don't
use type hints to match the documentation, where type hints haven't
been adopted yet (given its beginner focus).
- 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.
* Remove unnecessary use of `self`
* Connect to signals directly over `connect("name")`
* Use `call_deferred` on callables over `call_deferred("name"))`
* Emit signals directly over `emit_signal("name"...)`
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).
- Enable anisotropic filtering in 3D demos, and set the quality to
16× on desktop and 4× on mobile.
- Enable 4× MSAA on some 3D demos that didn't use it beforehand.
- On GLES3 demos, disable MSAA on mobile as these demos are often
more demanding.
- Use more conservative framebuffer allocation settings for better
performance.
- Use PCF13 shadow filtering in GLES2 demos on desktop to benefit
from soft shadows in Godot 3.2.4 and later.
In Godot 3.2.3, this will make shadows smoother but still "blocky".
- Use Lossless compression instead of VRAM compression for
small textures such as the voxel demo texture atlas.
This is required to benefit from crisp display on hiDPI monitors.
This also fixes issues related to fullscreen and input handling
when using an hiDPI display on Windows.
- Enable 4× MSAA in all 3D demos.
- Enable filmic tonemapping with a whitepoint of 6 in GLES3 3D demos.
- Add subtle fog to the Truck Town demo.
- Use the `2d` stretch mode and `expand` stretch aspect to support
multiple resolutions and aspect ratios.
