Fixes
Full list of fixes and changes is available on GitHubVersion 1.4 08 Jan 2024
Features
- New renderer with progressive enhancement for utilizing of OffscreenCanvas in a worker thread
- Shader parsing is moved to a worker thread as well
- Added manual shader recompilation
⚠️ Issues ⚠️
Large shaders may take long to recompile and since the GPU resources are not properly shared between main and worker threads there will still be a UI freeze. To eliminate this issue you need to disable"Hardware Acceleration" in settings of your browser. Alternatively opt into manual recompilation.
Changes
- Textures now have mipmaps generated by default, so you can use
textureLod()to sample the levels
Version 1.3 07 Aug 2023
Features
- Now users can add up to 16 local textures (supports images and videos) to use inside of shaders. Just drag'n'drop a file (or multiple files at once) into editor view. Alternatively click texture slot and choose a file in a dialog
