Free. Cross-platform. Open source. A game engine for building all your apps.
Stride 4.4 is one of the largest updates the engine has seen in years, with a modernized shader pipeline, overhauled Vulkan and Direct3D APIs, massive improvements to non-Windows platform support, a new CLI tool and much more.
4.4Release
In this blog post, we have a big announcement to make. We'll also talk about the implementation of the mixin system as well as the integration of the new shader system in Stride, what it means and what we can expect for its future.

In this blog post, we will focus on how the new SDSL parser has been implemented through writing a prototype expression parser as an example. We will see how this can be possible without sacrificing performance and allocating the least amount of memory possible. And finally see how this improved on the current shader parser system in Stride.

Distant Worlds 2, the sequel to the acclaimed 4X strategy game Distant Worlds: Universe, was developed by Code Force and published by Slitherine. In this blog post, the developers answer key questions from the Stride community, offering insights into their experience using the Stride engine to bring their ambitious galaxy-spanning strategy game to life.

In this second part we're going to dive deeper in how the current SDSL compiler works and how we are improving on it for the SPIR-V compiler. This will be a sort of personal log book of my research on the subject.

Stride contributors are thrilled to announce the release of Stride 4.2, now fully compatible with .NET 8 and leveraging the latest enhancements in C# 12. This release brings significant improvements in performance, stability, and developer experience.
4.2Release
In this first part of a new series of blog posts, we will learn more about Stride's shader system, its limitations and how to make it better thanks to a very useful shader language called SPIR-V. This will be the first step in implementing a new and better shader system.
