There was some bad recursion introduced recently that caused crashes
when a Material node is the same material as the material itself (e.g.,
if Material.001 has a node with Material.001).
This commit attempt to correct this by keeping track of the material
at the root of the node tree, and doesn't recurse further if it
encounters it again within the nodetree.
Joshua, please review!
Until now, there was never any code for making drivers on materials get
recalculated when their dependencies were changed. However, since changing
material colors with drivers is something that is quite common, a workaround was
introduced to ensure that materials could still be driven (albeit with the
relevant drivers rooted at object level). This worked well enough so far with
traditional materials - though it was sometimes clunky and confusing for some
users - and would have been ok to tide us over until the depsgraph refactor.
The introduction of Cycles changed this, as it has in many other ways. Now that
people use Cycles to render, they'll need to drive the material colors through
the nested nodetree (and other things nested deeply within that). However, this
is much more difficult to generate hacks to create the relevant paths needed to
work around the problem.
== This Commit... ==
* Adds a recursive driver calculation step to the BKE_object_handle_update()
(which gets called whenever the depsgraph has finished tagging object datablocks
for updates), which goes through calculating the drivers attached to the object
(and the materials/nodetrees attached to that). This case gets handled everytime
the object is tagged as needing updates to its "data" (OB_RECALC_DATA)
* When building the depsgraph, every dependency that the drivers there have are
treated as if they were attached to object.data instead. This should trick the
depsgraph into tagging OB_RECALC_DATA to force recalculation of drivers, at the
expense perhaps of modifiers getting recalculated again.
== Todo ==
* The old workarounds noted are still in place (will be commented out in the
next commit). This fix renders at least the material case redundant, although
the textures case still needs a bit more work.
* Check on whether similar hacks can be done for other datablock combinations
* So far, only simple test cases have been tested. There is probably some
performance penalty for heavy setups still (due to need to traverse down all
parts of material/node hierarchy to find things that need updates). If there
really is a problem here, we could try introducing some tags to limit this
traversal (which get added at depsgraph build time). <--- USER TESTING
NEEDED!!!
Added four new functions as shortcuts to creating GHashes that use the
standard ptr/str/int/pair hash and compare functions.
GHash *BLI_ghash_ptr_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_str_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_int_new(const char *info);
GHash *BLI_ghash_pair_new(const char *info);
Replaced almost all occurrences of BLI_ghash_new() with one of the
above functions.
All operators which changes tracking data now just tags dopsheet as outdated,
actual re-calculaiton of happens only when this information is actually needed
(like on dopesheet draw).
This makes things a bit faster when there's no dopesheet visible in current
screen and also makes it much easier to update dopesheet using dependency
graph.
Also renamed dopesheet_sort_order to dopesheet_sort_method in rna and internal
stuff which makes much more sense and also correlated with naming in
file browser.
- Make sure functions are named in way BKE_<object>_<action> (same way as RNA callbacks)
- Make functions which are used by mball.c only static and remove their prototypes
from public header file.
Further cleanup is coming.
--debug
--debug-ffmpeg
--debug-python
--debug-events
--debug-wm
This makes debug output easier to read - event debug prints would flood output too much before.
For convenience:
--debug-all turns all debug flags on (works as --debug did before).
also removed some redundant whitespace in debug prints and prefix some prints with __func__ to give some context.
problem was that BMesh had tessellation call when undo pushes were called.
if python called an operator with no undo push, tessfaces would not be created.
fix this by making it the responsibility of each editmesh operator to re-tessellate, as it is with notifiers and depsgraph.
added EDBM_update_generic() function to add notifier, tag for depsgraph update and optionally re-tessellate.
Issue was caused because of missed MDeformVert layer on subdivided cube.
If regular object is constrained to mesh object, extra customdata mask
is adding to such target. But armature bones are handling separately
and there was no such thing happens.
Ideally this code should be deduplicated to avoid such kind of issues,
but better not to do it so close before release.
If this object is defined, object with Follow Track constraint would be
projected into surface of this depth object.
If object is not set or there's no projection onto it, projection plane
calculated based on original object position would be used.
This allows to make cheap facial mocap.
This commits merges object tracking implementation from tomato branch.
Summarized changes from branch:
- Added list of objects to be tracked. Default there's only one object called
"Camera" which is used for solving camera motion. Other objects can be added
and each of them will have it;s own list of tracks. Only one object can be used
for camera solving at this moment.
- Added new constraint called "Object Tracking" which makes oriented object be
moving in the save way as solved object motion.
- Scene orientation tools can be used for orienting object to bundles.
- Object has got scale to define "depth" in camera space.
- All tools which works with list of tracks or reconstruction data now
gets that lists from active editing object.
- All objects and their tracking data are available via python api.
- Improvements in witness cameras workflow,
