FAQPage Schema
How do I migrate my game from Phaser 3 to Phaser 4?▼

Phaser 4 introduces new game objects like SpriteGPULayer and TilemapGPULayer for advanced visuals. It adds Lighting and RenderSteps components to enable sophisticated lighting effects and custom render workflows within your game development projects.

What is the RenderNodes system in Phaser 4?▼

Yes, Phaser 4 includes the TilemapGPULayer game object designed for high-fidelity tilemaps. This feature provides GPU-accelerated rendering to optimize tilemap performance and enable advanced visual effects in your games.

How do I optimize sprite rendering performance in Phaser 4?▼

To optimize sprite rendering in Phaser 4, use the new SpriteGPULayer game object for GPU-accelerated sprite management. This approach significantly improves rendering performance for large numbers of game objects.

Can I capture live frames for post-processing in Phaser 4?▼

Yes, Phaser 4 introduces the CaptureFrame game object specifically for live frame captures. This allows developers to grab frames during gameplay and use them for advanced post-processing effects and visual manipulation.
