How Much Better Are Shadows in Godot 4? (they're a lot better!) 

This reminded me, there's a subject that (I think) hasn't been much touched on in tutorials: how to add options to change game settings at runtime, like graphics, sound volumes, player controls, etc.

That open source demo looks beautiful!

Look like Exponential Shadow Mapping for Godot v4.x , with blur filltering passing. Maybe more for the contact shadow ... adaptative bias or something like that. Anyway, shadows look fine and smoothy in Godot 4 ^^

Shadows and shading in general are by far my biggest problem with Godot 3D rn so seeing this improvement is great

For me, Godot and Blender are my best friends.

Im going through the code from 0.0 coarse and am loving it, cant wait for the 4.0 update. Though i wonder if the coarse is accounting for the 3.5 tween features in the code

Hi GDQuest. I already bought one of your courses times ago. And with 4.0 version almost launched officially I'm intending to buy another one. My question is: - Will you put more courses with 4.0 version on your site? Im looking for like a 3D platform course this time.

It’s looking beautiful ❤❤❤

Godot 4 might be a big hit for 3d indie developers and triple A companies.

Hey! Great tutorials, thank you so much. Could you consider make a tutorial of how jrpg party system works? Like change companions off battle, swap companions in battles, companion following, etc. Like Pokémon, persona or other turn based.

Shadows are interesting, because short of RTX they still look like ass even on triple A titles if you stop and look at them. Having done some work on them in the past I know why and it's honestly impressive what they can be. Sadly I still prefer the classic oval "shadow" over a blocky/low res shadow. Nowadays we can probably go a bit beyond that, I'm interested in experimenting in making advanced simple shadows by taking a low res blocky engine shadow, smoothing it out a lot until it has basically a 1 edge blob, then upping the resolution and sharpness so it's a HQ blob.

Hi! I'm still learning how to develop a game. I just have a question. How do you update the game you published?

Is there any way to make variable penumbra shadows?

Shadows are better for sure - but with the other light nodes, shadows break with animated meshes on static meshes. There's an issue to address it. Hopefully that gets fixed soon.

well thats another plus for godot 4. Good video

The godot 3 shadow kinda like unrendered 3D animations

pls can you make 8 way shooting with lock system like cuphead? When i searched i only found tutorials about shooting with mouse and I don't want that

the robot is so cuteeee

For some reason when I use shadows, they’re pitch black

Now I have even more motivation to build my rig. I would fry my laptop if I tried this now.

Hope Godot4 can use C# to script code. Or is it already available now?

I cannot wait to use godot 4 😍😍

Godot 4 will be awesome

why don't u have rigidbody tutorials? And the shadows look mad nice

Godot 4 released? when i go to official site i only see Godot 3.5.1

Gracias buen video

Please, how do you draw your characters?

Goes to hell if you turn up the blur though.

Gonk!

Would have been helpful if you showed how to go from default shadows to the in-game you show at 3:13. EDIT: Ok, here's something: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oehdIc8NGXE.html

is godot 4 already out?

The old shadows were useless and the new ones are beautiful, I really like the dithering

Hello! Please make lessons on creating fishing in godot!

Why Godot 3 shadows are blue? That's weird.

Welp I feel bad for literally installing Godot 3.5 yesterday ._.

Glad to see they are starting to work on the bare minimum a 3d engine must do, maybe in 5 years can be usable for 3d projects too

I miss Godot coding.
