Billboard System
Added 2023-10-05 02:11:12 +0000 UTCHi!
Here's a small video clip from one of the main optimization systems that I also had in Unity.
I ported this billboard + shadow faking solution to Godot yesterday and this solution is my trusted method of optimizing dense forests and other large areas.
The test area in this video is 1x1km. I won't be using anything that size but this will improve performance in smaller maps also.
Now I have most of the optimization things ported and I can start rebuilding the first map to Godot which will be that Village map but slightly altered.
I will try to get that first Godot test build ready for Sunday.

Imo good for him, godot is sick but i aint making a switch anytime soon as i have valuable expirience with unity which is while for my existence. Anyways Antti good luck with the game!)

I suggested that you could use Chat GPT 4 to port C# code from Unity to Godot scripting language, as a developer myself I find it very useful when porting code. It could speed up the porting process. Also, keep the good work going.
