RenderingServer

Inherits: Object

Server for anything visible.

Description

The rendering server is the API backend for everything visible. The whole scene system mounts on it to display. The rendering server is completely opaque: the internals are entirely implementation-specific and cannot be accessed.

The rendering server can be used to bypass the scene/Node system entirely. This can improve performance in cases where the scene system is the bottleneck, but won’t improve performance otherwise (for instance, if the GPU is already fully utilized).

Resources are created using the *_create functions. These functions return RIDs which are not references to the objects themselves, but opaque pointers towards these objects.

All objects are drawn to a viewport. You can use the Viewport attached to the SceneTree or you can create one yourself with viewport_create. When using a custom scenario or canvas, the scenario or canvas needs to be attached to the viewport using viewport_set_scenario or viewport_attach_canvas.

Scenarios: In 3D, all visual objects must be associated with a scenario. The scenario is a visual representation of the world. If accessing the rendering server from a running game, the scenario can be accessed from the scene tree from any Node3D node with Node3D.get_world_3d. Otherwise, a scenario can be created with scenario_create.

Similarly, in 2D, a canvas is needed to draw all canvas items.

3D: In 3D, all visible objects are comprised of a resource and an instance. A resource can be a mesh, a particle system, a light, or any other 3D object. In order to be visible resources must be attached to an instance using instance_set_base. The instance must also be attached to the scenario using instance_set_scenario in order to be visible. RenderingServer methods that don’t have a prefix are usually 3D-specific (but not always).

2D: In 2D, all visible objects are some form of canvas item. In order to be visible, a canvas item needs to be the child of a canvas attached to a viewport, or it needs to be the child of another canvas item that is eventually attached to the canvas. 2D-specific RenderingServer methods generally start with canvas_*.

Headless mode: Starting the engine with the --headless command line argument disables all rendering and window management functions. Most functions from RenderingServer will return dummy values in this case.

LightProjectorFilter LIGHT_PROJECTOR_FILTER_LINEAR = 1

Linear filter for light projectors (use for non-pixel art light projectors). No mipmaps are used for rendering, which means light projectors at a distance will look smooth but blurry. This has roughly the same performance cost as using mipmaps.

LightProjectorFilter LIGHT_PROJECTOR_FILTER_NEAREST_MIPMAPS_ANISOTROPIC = 4

Nearest-neighbor filter for light projectors (use for pixel art light projectors). Anisotropic mipmaps are used for rendering, which means light projectors at a distance will look smooth and sharp when viewed from oblique angles.

LightParam LIGHT_PARAM_SHADOW_PANCAKE_SIZE = 16

Sets the size of the directional shadow pancake. The pancake offsets the start of the shadow’s camera frustum to provide a higher effective depth resolution for the shadow. However, a high pancake size can cause artifacts in the shadows of large objects that are close to the edge of the frustum. Reducing the pancake size can help. Setting the size to 0 turns off the pancaking effect.

LightParam LIGHT_PARAM_SHADOW_OPACITY = 17

The light’s shadow opacity. Values lower than 1.0 make the light appear through shadows. This can be used to fake global illumination at a low performance cost.

LightParam LIGHT_PARAM_SHADOW_BLUR = 18

Blurs the edges of the shadow. Can be used to hide pixel artifacts in low resolution shadow maps. A high value can make shadows appear grainy and can cause other unwanted artifacts. Try to keep as near default as possible.

LightParam LIGHT_PARAM_MAX = 21

Represents the size of the LightParam enum.

enum LightBakeMode:

LightBakeMode LIGHT_BAKE_STATIC = 1

Light is taken into account in static baking (VoxelGI, LightmapGI, SDFGI (Environment.sdfgi_enabled)). The light can be moved around or modified, but its global illumination will not update in real-time.

LightBakeMode LIGHT_BAKE_DYNAMIC = 2

Light is taken into account in dynamic baking (VoxelGI and SDFGI (Environment.sdfgi_enabled) only). The light can be moved around or modified with global illumination updating in real-time. The light’s global illumination appearance will be slightly different compared to LIGHT_BAKE_STATIC. This has a greater performance cost compared to LIGHT_BAKE_STATIC. When using SDFGI, the update speed of dynamic lights is affected by ProjectSettings.rendering/global_illumination/sdfgi/frames_to_update_lights.

enum ShadowQuality:

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_HARD = 0

Lowest shadow filtering quality (fastest). Soft shadows are not available with this quality setting, which means the Light3D.shadow_blur property is ignored if Light3D.light_size and Light3D.light_angular_distance is 0.0.

Note: The variable shadow blur performed by Light3D.light_size and Light3D.light_angular_distance is still effective when using hard shadow filtering. In this case, Light3D.shadow_blur is taken into account. However, the results will not be blurred, instead the blur amount is treated as a maximum radius for the penumbra.

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_SOFT_VERY_LOW = 1

Very low shadow filtering quality (faster). When using this quality setting, Light3D.shadow_blur is automatically multiplied by 0.75× to avoid introducing too much noise. This division only applies to lights whose Light3D.light_size or Light3D.light_angular_distance is 0.0).

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_SOFT_LOW = 2

Low shadow filtering quality (fast).

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_SOFT_MEDIUM = 3

Medium low shadow filtering quality (average).

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_SOFT_HIGH = 4

High low shadow filtering quality (slow). When using this quality setting, Light3D.shadow_blur is automatically multiplied by 1.5× to better make use of the high sample count. This increased blur also improves the stability of dynamic object shadows. This multiplier only applies to lights whose Light3D.light_size or Light3D.light_angular_distance is 0.0).

ShadowQuality SHADOW_QUALITY_SOFT_ULTRA = 5

Highest low shadow filtering quality (slowest). When using this quality setting, Light3D.shadow_blur is automatically multiplied by 2× to better make use of the high sample count. This increased blur also improves the stability of dynamic object shadows. This multiplier only applies to lights whose Light3D.light_size or Light3D.light_angular_distance is 0.0).

SkyMode SKY_MODE_QUALITY = 1

Uses high quality importance sampling to process the radiance map. In general, this results in much higher quality than SKY_MODE_REALTIME but takes much longer to generate. This should not be used if you plan on changing the sky at runtime. If you are finding that the reflection is not blurry enough and is showing sparkles or fireflies, try increasing ProjectSettings.rendering/reflections/sky_reflections/ggx_samples.

SkyMode SKY_MODE_INCREMENTAL = 2

Uses the same high quality importance sampling to process the radiance map as SKY_MODE_QUALITY, but updates over several frames. The number of frames is determined by ProjectSettings.rendering/reflections/sky_reflections/roughness_layers. Use this when you need highest quality radiance maps, but have a sky that updates slowly.

SkyMode SKY_MODE_REALTIME = 3

Uses the fast filtering algorithm to process the radiance map. In general this results in lower quality, but substantially faster run times. If you need better quality, but still need to update the sky every frame, consider turning on ProjectSettings.rendering/reflections/sky_reflections/fast_filter_high_quality.

Note: The fast filtering algorithm is limited to 256×256 cubemaps, so sky_set_radiance_size must be set to 256. Otherwise, a warning is printed and the overridden radiance size is ignored.

Property Descriptions

bool render_loop_enabled

• void set_render_loop_enabled ( bool value )

• bool is_render_loop_enabled ( )

If false, disables rendering completely, but the engine logic is still being processed. You can call force_draw to draw a frame even with rendering disabled.

Method Descriptions

Image[] bake_render_uv2 ( RID base, RID[] material_overrides, Vector2i image_size )

Bakes the material data of the Mesh passed in the base parameter with optional material_overrides to a set of Images of size image_size. Returns an array of Images containing material properties as specified in BakeChannels.

RID camera_attributes_create ( )

Creates a camera attributes object and adds it to the RenderingServer. It can be accessed with the RID that is returned. This RID will be used in all camera_attributes_ RenderingServer functions.

Once finished with your RID, you will want to free the RID using the RenderingServer’s free_rid method.

Note: The equivalent resource is CameraAttributes.

void camera_attributes_set_auto_exposure ( RID camera_attributes, bool enable, float min_sensitivity, float max_sensitivity, float speed, float scale )

Sets the parameters to use with the auto-exposure effect. These parameters take on the same meaning as their counterparts in CameraAttributes and CameraAttributesPractical.

void camera_attributes_set_dof_blur ( RID camera_attributes, bool far_enable, float far_distance, float far_transition, bool near_enable, float near_distance, float near_transition, float amount )

Sets the parameters to use with the DOF blur effect. These parameters take on the same meaning as their counterparts in CameraAttributesPractical.

void camera_attributes_set_dof_blur_bokeh_shape ( DOFBokehShape shape )

Sets the shape of the DOF bokeh pattern. Different shapes may be used to achieve artistic effect, or to meet performance targets. For more detail on available options see DOFBokehShape.

void camera_attributes_set_dof_blur_quality ( DOFBlurQuality quality, bool use_jitter )

Sets the quality level of the DOF blur effect to one of the options in DOFBlurQuality. use_jitter can be used to jitter samples taken during the blur pass to hide artifacts at the cost of looking more fuzzy.

void camera_attributes_set_exposure ( RID camera_attributes, float multiplier, float normalization )

Sets the exposure values that will be used by the renderers. The normalization amount is used to bake a given Exposure Value (EV) into rendering calculations to reduce the dynamic range of the scene.

The normalization factor can be calculated from exposure value (EV100) as follows:

func get_exposure_normalization(float ev100):
                                return 1.0 / (pow(2.0, ev100) * 1.2)

The exposure value can be calculated from aperture (in f-stops), shutter speed (in seconds), and sensitivity (in ISO) as follows:

func get_exposure(float aperture, float shutter_speed, float sensitivity):
    return log2((aperture * aperture) / shutterSpeed * (100.0 / sensitivity))

RID camera_create ( )

Creates a 3D camera and adds it to the RenderingServer. It can be accessed with the RID that is returned. This RID will be used in all camera_* RenderingServer functions.

Once finished with your RID, you will want to free the RID using the RenderingServer’s free_rid method.

Note: The equivalent node is Camera3D.

void camera_set_camera_attributes ( RID camera, RID effects )

Sets the camera_attributes created with camera_attributes_create to the given camera.

void camera_set_orthogonal ( RID camera, float size, float z_near, float z_far )

Sets camera to use orthogonal projection, also known as orthographic projection. Objects remain the same size on the screen no matter how far away they are.

void camera_set_perspective ( RID camera, float fovy_degrees, float z_near, float z_far )

Sets camera to use perspective projection. Objects on the screen becomes smaller when they are far away.

void camera_set_transform ( RID camera, Transform3D transform )

Sets Transform3D of camera.

void camera_set_use_vertical_aspect ( RID camera, bool enable )

If true, preserves the horizontal aspect ratio which is equivalent to Camera3D.KEEP_WIDTH. If false, preserves the vertical aspect ratio which is equivalent to Camera3D.KEEP_HEIGHT.

RID canvas_create ( )

Creates a canvas and returns the assigned RID. It can be accessed with the RID that is returned. This RID will be used in all canvas_* RenderingServer functions.
