We continue to improve 2.x for all developers for the coming years and hope that future projects move to 3.x when the time comes. We understand the difficulties and hesitance that come with moving from 2.x to 3.x and are working hard to ensure all Cocos developers are supported as best as possible.
If you want a complete look at the updates in 2.4.6, please read our developer notes at our forums.
Big Optimizations
We are excited to increase the loading speed of imported resources already added to a project by 50% compared to version 2.4.5. This means that startup speeds for when you open up your working projects will be much faster.
Sequence frame animation has been optimized for the iOS platform, improving performance on older iPhone models such as the iPhone 6s Plus by up to three times.
Cocos Creator now has a scene list in the preview toolbar to help you quickly select the preview scene without switching to it from a corresponding scene, improving work efficiency.
