PhysicsEditor: document the portable bodyDef path (#1685) The page was built on `body.fromJSON()`, which reaches the built-in solver only and is deprecated since 20.7.0. It now names the preloaded asset from a body definition instead, which resolves before any adapter sees it and so works unchanged on the built-in, matter and planck backends. Also corrects a note that was already wrong: density, friction and bounce ARE applied now, and the exporter's filter block is skipped for a stated reason rather than merely ignored. Fixes two dead documentation links.

Shader Effects: show only the active API `renderable.shader =` has been deprecated since 19.2.0, including for meshes — `Mesh#shader` delegates straight to it. Both mesh examples now use `addPostEffect()`.

Correct three claims that disagree with the source - Working in 3D: Camera3d has no `roll`. Rotations are pitch and yaw only; the inherited `Camera2d.rotation` is not read by the view transform or the frustum rebuild, so a screen-plane bank has no effect. - SpriteIlluminator: normal-map lighting requires a GPU backend, not WebGL specifically — WebGPU implements the lit pipeline too. Also notes that Light2d glow and stage ambient still draw on Canvas. - Legacy upgrade guide: `me.loader.onload` was not "still working" — it is a module binding that could never be assigned from outside, deprecated in 18.2.0 and removed in 20.3.

2.5D Games: depth does not filter collision (melonJS/melonJS#1580) The page claimed distant-Z parallax 'will often land in different octants than gameplay and be pruned by the broadphase walk — best-effort, not a guarantee'. That was describing a bug: the same pruning was also discarding collisions between gameplay bodies at different depths, at a measured 12 of 20 genuinely overlapping pairs. Fixed in 20.0.0. Collision is 2D whichever camera renders the scene, so the broadphase's collision walk now ignores depth entirely. Rewrites the 'why it works' and 'keeping parallax out of collision queries' sections accordingly, and notes that the genuinely 3D queries do still prune on depth.

Document ground shadows (#1515) and drop the stale 2.5D caveats Working-in-3D gains a Ground shadows section (properties, the three-level opt-in and its no-vertical-extent safeguard, cost, and the Camera3d/GPU requirement); the glTF page documents the level.load options; the 2.5D page's two caveats are both obsolete now that anchorPoint: "bottom" and castGroundShadow exist.
