OMG! Thanks everyone! I can't believe we passed 50k!
If you donated because you'd like to see better XR support in Godot, give a cheer! :)

Well, that was pretty much that. Have a few loose ends to tie off but today was my official last day at my current employer. On Monday we start working full time at
@godotengine
with my main focus on XR support in Godot 4.0. Here is a toast to new beginnings!

Slowly but surely the new lowend/mobile vulkan renderer for

Coming to kickstarter soon, stand along Linux based XR HMD, and it seems to be using Godot as a core tech in making this happen. Once again I'm amazed this hadn't crossed my radar before.

Probably one of the biggest PRs I've contributed to Godot was merged into master earlier this week. Godot now has two Vulkan renderers, the new one focusing on mobile GPU architecture. Sounds scarier then it is as they share a lot of code.

Godot 4.0 is now officially released, what a milestone! For
#XR
, OpenXR and WebXR support is now integrated into the engine. 2023 is going to be an cool year!
4 years of development.
12,000 merged pull requests.
7,000 fixed issues.
1,500 individual contributors across engine and docs.
Godot 4.0 sets sail NOW! ⛵️
A complete overhaul. A solid foundation to build upon.

The

Just merged a little quality of life improvement for the

Ok, The
#godotengine
4.0 port of the OpenVR plugin has been rebased and is working with the official GDExtensions release. All important PRs on the Godot side are merged now too. Only missing feature is controllers which I plan to work on tomorrow.

It's official people, it only took 1.5 years but

This may not look like much, but it means the low end/mobile vulkan renderer has taken its first baby steps. Lots of things currently disabled but a personal little breakthrough none the less..

Hit a major milestone today, controller tracking and the new prototype input system is working with

The last major hurdle is getting OpenXR to render in Godot 4 and after that I suspect things will go really quickly.

I only did some preliminary work on this so john is giving me more credit than I deserve but the concept we came up with for doing background rendering in Godot 4 is going to blow peoples socks off!
Sky Shaders are coming to Godot 4.0. Thanks to
@mux213
for the hard work getting the base support. (The sky is made using a shader attached to a Sky resource and the reflections are updated in real time)

Eureka! This took far too long but I think I finally cracked the issues around the

It amazes me to no end the number of unsolicited emails we get of individuals or companies wanted to handle

If you don't even know Godot is FOSS and we have no sales but we're a FREE product, you're probably not a very good marketeer...

Just for people who are confused about the timing of our engine rebrand, this has been in the making since the start of last month after a heavy debate in the community finally settling on the overwhelming support for this.

@Garbaj2
The washed out color is because rendering happens in linear color space after which the image is converted to sRGB color space. When you use that as a texture, it means its ‘converted to sRGB’ again washing out the colors. Tick the ‘keep 3d linear’ tickbox on the viewport to fix
