I worked on #HDR in #godotengine almost full time for over a year with the help of others to make sure it was implemented well. Very happy with how it’s turned out given the constraints. Looking forward to see games use this on mobile when we add Android in the future godotengine.org/article/hdr-...

@someware.cc replies on your post are disabled, but re: bsky.app/profile/some... Mobile is the best renderer for most projects, especially in Godot 4.6 onward, unless you’re targeting web. The important choice is whether you have the HDR 2D setting enabled or not. HDR 2D is often best for 3D games.

My first choice in a #Godot project is do I want "Forward+" or "Compatibility"... Well, my graphics will be shit, my controls simple, the game size small, my graphics card is a 1050TI so I'm def gonna need that Forward+ settings, right? ... Right?

Godot 4.6 will use my updates to the AgX tonemapper: these changes are mostly subtle, but the new reworking allows HDR output support to be added in the future!

I ported my vector rendering engine to #godotengine and showed it off at the Dirty Rectangles game dev meetup in Toronto. Someone asked what it sounded like and to my surprise the strobe post-processing effect made it sound like an electronic rave 😂
