Upgrading from Godot 4.3 to Godot 4.4

For most games and apps made with 4.3 it should be relatively safe to migrate to 4.4. This page intends to cover everything you need to pay attention to when migrating your project.

Cambiamenti distruttivi

If you are migrating from 4.3 to 4.4, the breaking changes listed here might affect you. Changes are grouped by areas/systems.

Questo articolo indica se ogni cambiamento distruttivo influisce su GDScript e se un cambiamento distruttivo in C# è compatibile con il binario o compatibile con il codice sorgente:

• Binary compatible - Existing binaries will load and execute successfully without recompilation, and the run-time behavior won't change.

• Compatibile con il codice sorgente - Il codice sorgente sarà compilato correttamente senza cambiamenti all'aggiornamento di Godot.

Nota

In C#, the enum RenderingDevice.StorageBufferUsage breaks compatibility because of the way the bindings generator detects the enum prefix. New members where added in GH-100062 to the enum that caused the enum members to be renamed.

Method _parse_file changes return type to Array and removes msgids and msgids_context_plural parameters	❌	❌	❌	GH-99297

Nota

The method _get_import_flags was never used by the engine. It was removed despite the compatibility breakage as there's no way for users to rely on this affecting engine behavior.

Cambiamenti di comportamento

Fondamentali

Nota

The Curve resource now enforces its value range, so min_value and max_value need to be changed if any of the points fall outside of the default [0, 1] range.

Renderer

Nota

The VisualShaderNodeVec4Constant shader node had its input type changed to Vector4. Users need to recreate the values in their constants.

CSG

Nota

The CSG implementation now uses Emmett Lalish's Manifold library (GH-94321). The new implementation is more consistent with manifold definitions and fixes a number of bugs and stability issues. As a result, non-manifold meshes are no longer supported. You can use MeshInstance3D for rendering non-manifold geometry, such as quads or planes.

Android

Nota

Android sensor events are no longer enabled by default (GH-94799). Projects that use sensor events can enable them as needed in Project Settings under Input Devices > Sensors.
