cl_godot: A Custom Godot Fork

Acceleration structures, ray query bindings and SPIR-V Cross plumbing on Apple silicon. Inline queries only, as Metal offers them.

Built from every instance, not the frustum cull, so off-screen geometry casts shadows and bounce. Skinned, blend-shaped and multimesh instances included.

--gpu-profile prints per-pass GPU time from MTLCounterSampleBuffer. Upstream reports nothing on Metal.

Replace the directional shadow map. Soft penumbras from the sun's angular size, temporal accumulation, alpha-tested casters.

MegaLights-style: every omni, spot and area light in one compute pass with reservoir sampling and one shadow ray per sample. Hundreds of shadowed lights at a flat cost.

Shadows, stochastic sampling, fog and GI all sample the rectangle. Sampling is uniform over the rect; the biased quadrant warp was measured and dropped.

Variance-driven a-trous spatial filter with temporal accumulation over demodulated diffuse and specular.

Fog froxels trace their own shadow rays against the TLAS instead of reading shadow maps.

Short screen traces close contact shadows the rays miss at the bias distance.

A light's size drives the sun lobe, the stochastic pass and the fog, so soft shadows come from the light, not a blur radius.

Replaces the SDFGI resolve and SSIL with a traced cosine gather, depth-validated history, VoxelGI as fallback.

The probe rays go through the ray query path instead of the SDF march. Interior leak measurably lower.

Six orthographic captures per instance into albedo, normal, emission and depth atlases, relit on the GPU. Cards read each other for multi-bounce.

Where a hit has no card, the material's own fragment code runs in compute at the hit, one indirect dispatch per material.

Mirror through rough, resolved over a neighbourhood before the temporal pass. Stock SSR is skipped where the traced result covers the roughness.

An irradiance moment adds surface detail; a traced occlusion term replaces the bent-normal approximation.

Captured probe radiance is re-fitted to the frame's irradiance so probes agree with the traced diffuse.

A froxel volume of shadowed direct light and bounce for transparent surfaces, replacing per-fragment light loops.

A light that moves gets its own bounce history, so it neither smears the static cache nor counts twice at the hand-over.

OCIO 2.4.2 vendored as modules/ocio with an OCIOServer singleton and a config chosen in project settings.

Colour textures are converted into the working space at import; data textures are left alone. Authored colours are converted, not just linearised.

TONE_MAPPER_OCIO renders through a real display, view and look set on the Environment, chosen separately, HDR output included.

The ray-traced passes measure and clamp luminance in the working colour space rather than assuming sRGB primaries.

area_visible_to_camera shows an AreaLight3D's emitting rectangle to the camera and follows size changes. Clicking the rect selects the light.

Omni, spot and area lights show a spherical range shape instead of the selection cube, with an eye toggle per light to hide it.

Editor gizmos no longer appear in SSR or screen-space shadow traces.

Every setting under Rendering > Ray Tracing is read each frame, so tuning updates the running viewport with no restart. Per-light shadow settings drive the traced passes.

Viewport modes for the stochastic light, visibility and analytic terms, the cluster's area lights, and the area-light atlas. A GI tier counter reports where each ray's radiance came from.

The editor keeps repainting until the surface cache reports settled, instead of freezing a half-converged frame.
