This update mainly adds support for loading materials from *.bbmat files. BBMAT is a simple JSON file containing material definition. It can be either created by hand or exported from BBMOD GUI.

Changelog:

General:

  • Disabled color grading on GLSL ES platforms, as it did not work consistently across various devices! This may be addressed in future versions.
  • Fixed terrain not casting shadows.
  • BBANIM files can now contain animation events.

CLI:

  • Updated Assimp from v5.2.4 to v5.2.5. This release for example fixes vertex weight issues, which in some cases lead into model deformations. You can find the full changelog here.

GML API:
