Quoting: PatolaMight be useful for 3D printing too. That's one area where we linux users lack, simple 3D modelling software. We have some professional quality options but they are too complex (Blender, FreeCAD and others).

What about Dust3D? I don't know if the generated models are 3D printing-friendly though.

Quoting: setzer22Great news! But let's hope there's some room in those 120k to work on bugfixes and stabilizing existing features. Also some of those needed performance improvements for sculpt mode and undo!

You can follow Pablo Dobarro on Twitter to get bits about sculpt mode improvements, as he's working full-time on it.

Fun fact: Heavenly Sword's source code is publicly available, which is pretty uncommon for a console exclusive.

Quoting: ValckDoes Godot run on ARM machines?

As it currently stands, the editor is unfortunately a bit too resource-intensive for this. That said, simpler 2D games can be made to work well on Raspberry Pi 3/4 by building an ARM Linux export template from source.

Godot 3.2.2 will get 2D batching which will speed up 2D rendering significantly, but I'm not sure if it'll be enough to run the 2D editor in an usable manner on an overclocked Raspberry Pi 4 (a best case scenario).

QuoteAdd a cvar to control weapon bobbing while firing

That was me :)

I've seen this feature in Crispy Doom and felt the need to port it to GZDoom.

BStone, a source port for Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold and Planet Strike adds a new OpenGL renderer

Quoting: aukondkThe upscaling works surprisingly well on these graphics. Wouldn't mind seeing it on a Wolf3D port (not sure which is the best these days)

ECWolf seems to be the go-to source Wolfenstein 3D port these days. It doesn't have OpenGL rendering though. It's all software rendering, which means it's slow at large resolutions like 1440p or 4K.
