This helped us to keep the core of Blender contributors together to work on 2.8.Īnd last but not least: special thanks to the community – the developers, documenters, bug reporters and reviewers – it is thanks to them that we can start this wonderful new era of Blender 2.

The game engine was written from scratch in C++ as a mostly independent component, and includes support for features such as Python scripting and OpenAL 3D sound. By using these shaders you can give your rendering a comic-book-like or manga-like appearance, affecting the shades of colours, as you may be able to appreciate in Figure 32. The Blender Game Engine is a discontinued component of Blender, a free and open-source 3D production suite, used for making real-time interactive content. UPBGE : is an open-source 3D game engine forked from old Blender Game. Thanks goes to everyone who contributed to the Code Quest, the massively successful 3 month workshop in Blender Institute during spring 2018.Īnd we thank everyone who joined the Development Fund in 2nd half of 20. Cartoon Edges Blender's new material shaders, as per version 2.28, include nice toon diffuse and specular shaders. Offset Edges : this addon introduces a cad-like feature, which create edges that. This enabled us to work on the viewport, Eevee, collections/layers, UI and tools redesign. Special thanks goes to Tangent Animation and Aleph Objects, who funded 4 additional developers to work full-time on Blender 2.8 during the crucial 2017 period.

Edge This makes Blender search for edges in your rendering and add an ‘outline’ to them. The people who work for the Foundation and Institute did a tremendous job to bring Blender is where is it nowadays. Blender can add this feature as a post-processing operation. The Blender developer community is being supported by the organizational powers of Blender Foundation and its spin-off Blender Institute.
