Godot 3.0 has finally dropped!
https://godotengine.org/article/godot-3-0-released
https://godotengine.org/download/linux
Along with modern rendering features like PBR and clustered forward rendering, Godot 3.0 also has VASTLY improved documentation:
http://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/index.html
You can script it with their python-like GDscript, or actually use a Python or C# (or any language that gets the bindings) plugin. It's free as in freedom, and it is hands-down the best fully-fledge engine for game design on Linux. Why aren't you making video games for freedom yet, /tech/?

Vulkan is coming later to Godot. Version 3.0 had started long before Vulkan was officially ratified. There's no point in trying to put in full Vulkan support into the 3.0 release, there's way too much work to make it release worthy for this. If you want to help make it a reality, I know that the Godot team is willing to accept patches or cash to help make it happen.
▶ No.859892>>859895
I don't know about the rest of you, but I see this game engine as an open-source alternative to Unity that isn't exclusively geared toward a GUI workflow.
The C# documentation is just about non-existent(Ideally we'll see the C# equivalent of the GDscript API documentation so that we don't need to manually print class methods to figure out when they aren't simply the pascal case equivalent of the GDscript.)
▶ No.859895>>859897 >>859899
>>859892
You can look at it that way. I like to see it as its own game engine that takes inspiration from what came before which also includes Unity. When I first encountered Godot, I found its featureset and philosophy extremely compelling on its own terms. Its comparison to Unity is because Unity is much older than Godot.

▶ No.859899>>859930

From a freetard standpoint, its worth mentioning that no Unity3d game will ever become open source at any point. The Unity devs don't hold the rights to several important components of the engine, so they'll never be able to release the code, even decades from now.
Godot games don't have to be open source, but there is at least the chance that they could at some point. There good old days where developers might open source their old games could make a comeback thanks to OSS engine's like Godot. This alone is one reason even Stallmanists should be shilling for this engine, with indie devs, at least.

Also last I used it it had poor capabilities, was pretty slow, was way underdocumented and was fairly buggy (crashed often).
I ultimately went with urho3d, which doesn't have as good tooling but is better documented (surprisingly), signficantly easier to use (in my experience), can be scripted in lua or angelscript, and from C/C++. It also has state-of-the-art capabilities and its api is very similar to UE4.

I'm not interested in writing a game engine, I'm interested in developing games. I believe in practicality, not reinventing the wheel over and over again. Godot is a game development framework that solves a huge number of correlated computer game problems. Having these sets of problems solved for me allows me to invest my time into my game, not the engine that's going to support the game. If I know that I have special requirements that aren't adequately solved by the standard Godot release, I always know that I can extend and modify Godot to make it fit my needs.

Unity uses C#, right? I don't have any experience with Unity, but Godot officially supports GDScript (Python-like), C#, C++ and VisualScript, the last one is exactly like Unreal 4's blueprints. If you know C# or C++ it should be difficult, but the documentation is still somewhat lacking. GDScript is not as bad as they make it out to be. I'd suggest practicing and prototyping a bit with GDScript first, but C# programming is pretty easy and quick once you understand the mechanics of the engine. Not to mention it has 3x times faster performance than GDScript/VisualScript, although most of time it's barely noticeable.

The main difference between Godot and other similar game engines is the way they approach scenes. In Unity, you have your scene and you load a bunch of prefabs into it. In Godot, everything is a scene. The weapon your character has equipped is a scene. You load this scene into your character scene, and then you load your character scene into your level, which may or may not be the top-level scene. It's a scene tree.

Vulkan is lower level which makes writing drivers much easier as the game defines how it wants to use resources instead of asking the driver nicely.
It unifies OpenGL and OpenCL, Vulkan does graphics and compute.
Vulkan was designed with the expectation for others to make third party frameworks for those who don't want to go so low.
Apparently it is possible to make an OpenGL framework for Vulkan but there will probably be easier frameworks.
Remember, a vulkan hello world program is 600 lines.
>>875964
There's a good reason for that, things like SLI or Crossover was entrusted and orchestrated by the driver, this made the driver complex and debugging hard.
Vulkan does away with all that and just presents your cards as compute instances, you query what they are on your machine, get their properties and then use them how you please.

I would guess it won't handle it well if you did everything in a stock Godot distribution and in pure GDScript. The great thing about Godot is that you can extend the functionality of Godot by writing and compiling in your own C++ extensions and modifications to the engine. What I would do is write a custom C++ renderer whose job is to deal with the rendering of the big open world. On top of that, I would possibly create some kind of data oriented world object processor in C++ and expose an interface to that processor function as a GDScript object.

Godot's overhead for everything is most probably higher than achieving the same outcome in C. Doing heavy processing in the interpreted GDScript language isn't going to help either. So as you increase the number of entities to process on the screen at one time, the overhead will certainly add up.

It depends on game, but map generation and AI for example shouldn't be written in GDScript, as it's is around 3-4 times slower than C#/C++. Even the devs acknowledge it. Really demanding parts should be rewritten in something else; I heard that C# is the easiest to implement.

If by AI you mean "path finding algorithm" then obviously. There should be an implementation provided by any sane engine anyways though. Most game AI logic can be encoded into very simple logic. By map generation do you mean "Perlin noise"? Because again this would be an instance of one algorithm taking up most of the CPU cycles. Just have a library of a few optimized base line algorithms everyone needs anyway. You don't want to do matrix algebra in the interpreter.

I think Godot has really hit the point now where it's popular enough that it will keep building up more popularity and momentum. The fact that it's open source AND treats Linux as a first-class citizen is massively to its advantage, because there are really no good engines that play nice with Linux, yet tons of programmers who like to volunteer on open source projects primarily use GNU/Linux. They basically have a captive community all to themselves, and now the codebase and projects are just going to keep getting better. I've noticed it is really taking over the discussion on GNU/Linux-oriented forums, and even adjacent ones like /agdg/.

I'm glad to know in the end I was right...Makes it more readable to cast things in var they said. I never liked it when the language didn't let me declare specific data types.
>C# actually lets you use var, and there are fuckers who lean on that shit because they just can't declare the variable for the data type it actually is.

Don't think so, that's probably just compile-time type inference. Fully compiled languages like C++ and Rust also have this (Rust being more advanced). Once declared with var, the type should still be static.

Node or NodePath doesn't really matter. The problem is the signal that identifies the object that enters my grab range reports a PhysicsBody type instead of Node. I can't make a Joint without using two Nodes, and there's no function I know of that can identify a PhysicsBody's Node, probably for good reason. Unless body_entered() starts reporting Nodes instead of PhysicsBodies, I don't think it's possible.

Declaring a variable "var" only means "figure the type out on your own, compiler". The compiler will do it at compile time if it can, otherwise it will raise an error and you will have to declare the type yourself. This means if you have a function
int PooInLoo();
and a variable
var amount = PooInLoo();
then the compiler can figure out that "amount" is of type "int" on its own instead of you having to write it down yourself. In general you should use var when you can, it makes the code more flexible at no cost. If you want to see what type "amount" has you just have to look up the declaration of "PooInLoo()".

Godot supports web-assembly (probably though emscripten) so you can run your games on any platform without using JRE or the Unity Plugin.
You can also use your existing C# and C++ code (probably GOAT Obj-C too but im not 100%) in addition to their python-centric scripting language.
Game objects are treated just like UI widgets in your scripts/code and you instance them into your trees.
