- Rebake lightmaps in Global Illumination demo with supersampling
to improve quality.
- Increase SDFGI quality in the Global Illumination demo
(slightly more demanding, but better matches the quality standards
of 2026).
All demos had Project > Tools > Upgrade Project Files ran on them
with 4.6.stable (4.6.stable.mono for demos in the `mono/` folder).
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.
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).
Edited the project settings to match the new Godot 4 standard and fixed
the script errors which were making it impossible to run this demo.
Now everything works properly for the 4.0-dev version.
Changed to Vulkan Mobile + Changed argument name
Followed the suggestions of aaronfranke
Changed viewport size
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.
This makes demos render correctly on hiDPI displays,
while also demonstrating how to handle multiple resolutions.
The 3D in 2D demo now uses "3D No-Effects" for the 3D viewport,
which is faster to render. Thanks to this, 4× MSAA is now enabled
for a better result.
The background loading demo now uses mipmaps for better-looking images.
The material testers demo now samples mouse input in a
resolution-independent manner when panning.
Default clear colors were also changed in some projects for visual
consistency with the project's theme.
The scripts were streamlined using more or less the following conventions:
- space after a comma in lists of arguments
- space around weak operators (+, -), no space around strong operators (*, /)
- space after a comment start (#)
- removed trailing spaces or tabs, apart from those that delimit the function indentation level (those could be removed too but since they are added automatically by the editor when typing code, keeping them for now)
- function blocks separate by two newlines
The scene files were resaved with the (current) 2.0 format, and some scenes that were in XML format were converted to SCN, to be consistent across all demos.
