August 2018 Patron Results (Patreon)

Sorry for the delay, got a flu these past weeks. Here are results for August 2018:

Tutorial / Demo

• 1. Basic multithread (mutexes, threads, semaphores): 23.23%
• 2. Using AnimationTree efficiently with root motion: 18.18%

Roadmap Priority

• 1. Texture and Mesh streaming (for faster load times and less memory usage in large 3D scenes): 39.62%

Texture and mesh streaming (including LOD) are planned for Vulkan rewrite of renderer, so this should happen after 3.1 is out.

And now popular vote results:
