Now tile size is setting up explicitly instead of using number of tiles.
This allows better control over GPU performance, where having tiles aligned
to specific size makes lots of sense.
Still to come: need to update startup.blend to make tiles size 64x64.
This fixes some "regressions" introduced in rev50781 which lead to much
worse solution in some cases. Now it's possible to bring old behavior back.
Perhaps it's more like temporal solution for time being smarter solution is
found. But finding such a solution isn't so fast, so let's bring manual
control over reprojection usage.
But anyway, imo it's now nice to have a structure which could be used to
pass different settings to the solver.
* Shader script node added, which stores either a link to a text datablock or
file on disk, and has functions to add and remove sockets.
* Callback RenderEngine.update_script_node(self, node) added for render engines
to compile the shader and update the node with new sockets.
Thanks to Thomas, Lukas and Dalai for the implementation.
reported as [#29376] BMESH_TODO: remove tessface CD_ORIGINDEX layer
for a single mesh there could be 3 origindex mappings stored, one on the polygons and 2 on the tessfaces.
(CD_POLYINDEX and CD_ORIGINDEX).
as Andrew suggests, now tessfaces (which are really a cache of polygons), using origindex to point to polygons on
the same derived mesh, and polygons only store the original index values.
- Added versioning for reading old files with logic saved
- Added two more 'alt backspace' options, for copyright and registered trademark.
(also 'tm' but it's not in our default font)
This was caused by incomplete pointer mapping of the node->internal_links list in r51630, my bad. In intermediate revisions this could lead to corrupted .blend data. This patch adds a do_versions check to remove such bad links. The correct internal_links list will get restored on node update.
Storing this list in the node has the advantage of requiring far fewer calls to the potentially expensive internal_connect callback. This was called on every node redraw ...
Also it will allow Cycles to properly use the internal links for muted nodes, which ensures consistent behavior. The previous method was not applicable in Cycles because transient list return values are not supported well in the RNA and particularly the C++ API implementation.
not do correct partial updates, now it remembers if the opengl texture is a
non-color data texture or not and takes that into account for the update.
Also includes some renaming ncd => is_data for consistency with color space
terminology used elsewhere.
- define array sizes for functions that take vectors.
- quiet some -Wshadow warnings.
- some copy/paste error in readfile.c made it set the same particle recalc flag twice.
Bit flag 5 has apparently been used for another purpose in old versions, then deprecated and was actually removed from DNA (this should never be done), then later it got reused for SOCK_DYNAMIC. Now a one-time check to clean up these flags is done in do_versions.
This makes it possible to do a border render inside a viewport even
when not looking through the camera.
Render border could be defined by Ctrl-B shortcut (works for both
camera render border and viewport render border).
Camera render border could still be defined using Shift-B (so no
muscule memory would be broken). Currently used a special flag of
operator to do this, otherwise you'll need to either two operators
with different poll callback or it could go into conflict with a
border zoom,
Border render of a viewport could be enabled/disabled in View
panel using "Render Border" option.

Generated and UV coordinates from the duplicator of instance instead of the
object itself.
This was used in e.g. Big Buck Bunny for texturing instanced feathers with
a UV map on the bird. Many files changed, mainly to do some refactoring to
get rid of G.rendering global in duplilist code.
Discovered when were looking into crystal_cube.blend from our regression files
collection. Now it should look the same as in 2.62 release. 2.63 release wouldn't
work correct for this file because of wrong mtface->material conversion after
bmesh merge.
Issue was happening when linking armature object and making proxy and was
caused by not copying visualization settings in BKE_pose_copy_data.
This lead to deadlocks in motion path drawing code.
After discussion with Campbell decided it is crucial fix since it fixes
bug appearing in really common scenario of using armatures.
Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.
