Complete release notes for the current and previous versions of the engine.
Newest version: 1.2.143
This release includes a collection of bug fixes and a few new functions available for native extensions.
We have fixed two issues regarding stencil/clipping, please be aware of this if you are using your own render scripts.
We have updated the dev app so that it can display which interfaces/IPs it listens to. An old crash bug related to rotating the device on Android has been fixed. We also added empty launch screens for the iOS version so that you will now have full native resolution on device.
This means that when two or more gui-scenes are using stencils, a stencil buffer clear will be executed before the first stencil node of a scene, which might have an impact on performance. The stencil buffer clear logic is optimised so that the first stencil node rendered will not issue a clear if the stencil has been cleared already (by the render script clear command).
The stencil buffer write mask affects the stencil clear behaviour. This wasn’t reset (set to 255) before the render script clear meaning the buffer wasn’t properly cleared. To fix existing scripts, add the line:
render.set_stencil_mask(0xff)
before the render.clear command(s).
