In fact, the issue was that names of mloopuv/mtespoly layers could very easily get out of sync (a simple rename was enough), while most tools (such as the UVProject modifier) expect matching layers to have the same name!
Now matching names are check on load, and renaming of a layer through RNA is guaranted to be synchronized with its counterparts.
Thanks to Brecht & Campbell for reviews.
So now, their generation is controlled by a flag, else previous "simple values" group ids are generated (one per poly region, no need here to reduce the number of used IDs!).
Will update obj exporter too.
use mpolys instead and simplify checks for wire edges.
Also rename BKE_mesh_from_curve() --> BKE_mesh_to_curve() since this function converts a mesh into a curve.
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!
This means the deformation on the input to the modifier can be re-applied ontop of the mesh cache.
In practice this is most useful for using corrective shape-keys with mesh-cache.
- use DummyRNA_NULL_items to replace empty enums.
- replace calloc with malloc in copy_dverts since its copied over after.
- add wmGesture->userdata, so operators that use gestures have somewhere to store their own data (not used yet).
- use 2 omp sections for vert -> (edge, face) selection flushing.
- dont use face-loop iterator for cddm_from_bmesh_ex conversion to give some speedup (some modifiers use this).
- use float(*)[3] for functions that return coords.
when uvs are shared by more than two islands. Uv edges
usually belong to only two islands, making for much cleaner
stitches. To change between stitch modes, press TAB.
Initial mode depends on the selection mode of the image
editor. Documentation can also be found on the release wiki
This uses the weighted average of polygon centroids based on area
It work well in most cases but will be slightly wrong when polygons have
many vertices.
ideally these would be used as generated coordinates, but this is tricly because cycles calculates its own orco's and doesnt know about curve settings.
Refactored code a bit to make naming a bit more clear and added a
function to create mesh from given display list rather than from
object's displist.
Tested using plain curves (which doesn't imply using derived meshes)
and curves with constructive modifiers (which are using derived meshed).
