Changelog

8.4.0 (??/??/2026)

Added an experimental Vulkan renderer for native Windows, Linux, and Android targets.
Added VulkanRenderContext and Haxe Vulkan bindings for instance, device, swapchain, command, descriptor, memory, and pipeline helpers.
Added Vulkan bootstrap logging, error details, MSAA resolve support, mapped memory helpers, and descriptor helpers.
Added the vulkan define, which makes Vulkan the default for windows that name no context type, and the no-vulkan define to build without Vulkan. Where Vulkan is not available, the window uses OpenGL.
Added the software-gl define, which falls back to OpenGL drawn in software, before Cairo, on Windows, macOS and Linux. Set LIME_SOFTWARE_GL=1 to test it. OpenGL contexts drawn in software report attributes.hardware as false.
Added <config:android vulkan-required="false" /> to let Vulkan applications install on devices without Vulkan, and <config:android vulkan-version="..." />.
Added configurable application frame timing with FrameProfile, FrameOptions, VSyncMode, busy-wait, time precision, and uncap controls.
Added AudioInput and audio input device APIs with native OpenAL, HTML5, and Flash backends.
Added <config:ios microphone-usage-description="..." /> and <config:mac microphone-usage-description="..." /> for applications that use the microphone.
Added SDL_sound decoding and streaming, including inline stream playback, streams with unknown length, and loop counts.
Added AudioBuffer.fromFileStream(), AudioBuffer.fromFilesStream(), AudioBuffer.fromBytesStream(), AudioBuffer.loadFromFileStream(), and AudioBuffer.loadFromFilesStream(), which stream through SDL_sound, or Ogg Vorbis without it.
Added Assets.getAudioBufferStream() and Assets.loadAudioBufferStream() for streamed sound assets.
Added recovery of OpenAL Soft audio after its output device changes or is disconnected.
Added AudioSource.playTogether(), which starts several sources in the same mixer update on native targets, for tracks that must stay aligned.
Added Window.alwaysOnTop and transparent window support.
Added Window.nativeHandle, the system's own window and display, for native code that works with them directly.
Added input event timestamps without changing listener signatures.
Added Promise.completeAsync().
Added explicit font rendering flags, DPI-aware glyph rendering, unhinted font decomposition, and HarfBuzz FT font change notifications.
Added Font.isBold and Font.isItalic.
Added Font.setVariation() to set the axes of variable fonts.
Added Font.stemDarkening and Font.stemDarkeningParameters to make text more readable.
Added a subpixel offset to Font.renderGlyphWithLoadFlags().
Added project.xml support for Android manifest tags and Gradle plugin entries.
Added AIR options for Android App Bundles, Android Studio output, and shared runtime deployment.
Added VAO support on macOS.
Added GL.copyImageSubData() for desktop OpenGL 4.3 and ARB_copy_image.
Added support for libhxcpp's incremental collector. With HXCPP_GC_INCREMENTAL, native C++ builds use it and advance a collection in the time left before a frame, unless no-idle-gc is defined.
Windows builds tell hxcpp where the application runs (HXCPP_PGO_RUN_DIR), so libhxcpp's profile-guided optimisation (HXCPP_PGO) works on the application in its own folder.
Added VideoSource and VideoDecoder for native video playback, with Media Foundation, AVFoundation, MediaCodec, and GStreamer backends.
Added texture output, HDR tone mapping, rotation and pixel aspect ratio, clock modes, gapless loops, stereo pan, skipping of late frames, and network streams to video playback, with NV12, RGBA, BGRA, and ARGB frames.
Added VideoSource playback on HTML5 through the browser's <video> element.
Added VideoSource.loadFromFile(), and VideoDecoder.videoUnsupported and VideoDecoder.audioUnsupported for streams of codecs that cannot be decoded.
Added VideoSource.rate, to play videos at 0.25 to 4 times normal speed.
Added the Vorbis sound of Matroska and WebM videos on Windows, which Media Foundation has no decoder for, read with libwebm and decoded with libvorbis.
Added Window.flash(), Window.mouseRect, and Window.keyboardGrab.
Added Window.preciseMouseWheel for smooth scrolling on touchpads and smooth wheels.
Added Window.appearance and Window.effectiveAppearance to prefer light or dark window decorations.
Added Window.onDisplayScaleChange.
Added Display.onConnect, Display.onDisconnect, and Display.onMove.
Added Gamepad.type, motion sensors, touchpad events, trigger rumble, and light color.
Added AIR externs for air.net.WebSocket and flash.events.WebSocketEvent.
Added Locale.preferredLocales.
Added ThreadPool.idleTimeout, so idle threads wait for more work before they exit.
Added CURL.versionInfo() values for the library's age, version number, and features.
Added HTTPRequest.verifyCertificates.
Added Menu, MenuItem, TrayIcon, and DockIcon for native menu bars, context menus, system tray icons, and the macOS Dock, through the new native-desktop dependency.
Added the default macOS menu bar to Application.menu, which starts as a copy of it whose About, Hide, Services, Quit, and Window items keep working when items are added.
Added menu bars and context menus on HTML5, drawn in the page, for Window.menu, Application.menu, and Menu.popup().
Added LocalServer and LocalSocket for connections between processes of the same user, through the new native-ipc dependency.
Added WebView, a web page in a window on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, AIR and in browsers, through the new StageWebView dependency. The no-webview define leaves the webview engine out of native and Android applications.
Added WebSocket and WebSocketServer for ws:// and wss:// clients and servers, through the new wsproto dependency, which CrossByte's WebSocket also runs on. Native targets need Haxe 4 for them.
Added AL.getSourcedvSOFT() for OpenAL Soft's source latency extension.
Added ALC.getStringList() to list every audio output and input device.
Added ALC.isExtensionPresent().
Added window icons on Linux.
Added the -noupdate flag to lime build and lime test to skip the update step.
Added the -arm64 flag to build HashLink/C applications for Apple Silicon on macOS, with binaries from lime rebuild hl -arm64. HashLink's JIT does not run on Apple Silicon yet.
Added running Windows builds through Wine with lime test on other platforms.
Added the lime_skip_invisible_windows define to stop rendering windows that are hidden.
Changed native streamed audio to refill from a thread of its own, so a stall on the main thread no longer drains a stream's buffers and drops its sound. Define lime_audio_no_stream_thread to refill from the main thread as before.
Changed native audio loading to decode through SDL_sound first, then Lime's own WAV and Ogg Vorbis decoders.
Changed asset copying and embedding to behave consistently across targets.
Changed OpenAL Soft HRTF to be disabled by default.
Changed allowHighDPI on Windows to draw at each display's own resolution, rather than stretched from 96 DPI.
Changed Window.alert() to also request attention on macOS and Linux.
Changed Windows to show input methods' own composition and candidate windows.
Changed FrameProfile.UNCAPPED to uncap the frame loop.
Changed native HTTP requests to look up names on a thread of their own on every platform.
Changed native HTTPS requests to check the server's certificate, against the system's trusted certificates (Mozilla's on iOS and tvOS). Set HTTPRequest.verifyCertificates to false, or define lime-insecure-https, for servers with self-signed certificates.
Changed static builds to use Lime's own mbedTLS rather than the one bundled with hxcpp.
Changed asset library load errors to say which bundle or manifest failed to load, and why.
Changed Windows HashLink builds to hide the console window. Set the SHOW_CONSOLE environment variable, or <setenv name="SHOW_CONSOLE" />, to keep it.
Changed HTML5 on iOS Safari to pause and resume with the page's visibility, rather than window focus.
Changed HTML5 applications with a frame rate of 0 to update on every animation frame.
Changed the error when the main class isn't found to also mention a missing <source /> path.
Changed Window.scale to follow changes to the display scale, which Window.onDisplayScaleChange reports. Define lime_disable_window_scale_change to keep the scale a window was created with.
Changed SDL to name the application after its first window, as Linux shows it while it plays sound or keeps the screen awake.
Changed native windows to share OpenGL textures, buffers, and shaders with the main window, and to keep the main window's context current outside of rendering, rather than the last window created or rendered.
Changed desktop builds to include SDL's virtual joystick driver, as SDL does by default.
Changed embedded assets to no longer be copied to the output folder.
Changed asset libraries to drop disposed AudioBuffer objects from their caches.
Changed the iOS Xcode project to Xcode's recommended settings, with identity settings.
Changed the HTML5, Flash and WebAssembly test server to CrossByte's HTTPServer, run by the command-line tools, rather than http-server on a bundled Node.js, which made the haxelib too large to publish. CrossByte was chosen over snake-server because it answers range requests, which audio and video need to seek. The server listens on 127.0.0.1 unless --host=0.0.0.0 lets other devices reach it. Building the tools now needs Haxe 4.3 or later, as does serving with -eval.
Changed desktop applications to take a quit request, such as Ctrl+C, SIGTERM or Cmd+Q, as a close request on every window, so Window.onClose runs and can cancel it, and Application.onExit follows.
Changed -terser to run terser through the system's npx, as -npx did, since Lime no longer bundles Node.js. It needs Node.js installed, and says so when it is not.
Updated pixman and platform config for LLVM assembly fixes, ARM NEON, Android NDKs, and Apple platforms.
Updated MojoAL and gamepad mappings.
Updated SDL submodule to version 2.32.10.
Updated mbedTLS to 3.6.7 and curl to 8.23.0, adding TLS 1.3 to native HTTP requests.
