Main target was to make the inner rendering loop using no globals anymore.
This is essential for proper usage while raytracing, it caused a lot of
hacks in the raycode as well, which even didn't work correctly for all
situations (textures especially).
Done this by creating a new local struct RenderInput, which replaces usage
of the global struct Render R. The latter now only is used to denote
image size, viewmatrix, and the like.
Making the inner render loops using no globals caused 1000s of vars to
be changed... but the result definitely is much nicer code, which enables
making 'real' shaders in a next stage.
It also enabled me to remove the hacks from ray.c
Then i went to the task of removing redundant code. Especially the calculus
of texture coords took place (identical) in three locations.
Most obvious is the change in the unified render part, which is much less
code now; it uses the same rendering routines as normal render now.
(Note; not for halos yet!)
I also removed 6 files called 'shadowbuffer' something. This was experimen-
tal stuff from NaN days. And again saved a lot of double used code.
Finally I went over the blenkernel and blender/src calls to render stuff.
Here the same local data is used now, resulting in less dependency.
I also moved render-texture to the render module, this was still in Kernel.
(new file: texture.c)
So! After this commit I will check on the autofiles, to try to fix that.
MSVC people have to do it themselves.
This commit will need quite some testing help, but I'm around!
- add a new space: Space Script
- add a new dna struct: Script
- add these two properly everywhere they are meant to
It's not a tiny commit, but most of it is ground work for what is still to be done.
Right now the benefits should be: freeing the Text Editor to be used in a window even while a script w/ gui in "on" and letting more than one currently running script w/ gui be accessible from each window
Some files are added, so some build systems (not autotools) will need updates
Aim was to find a simple & easy system, script alike, to add and configure
a toolbox system, so that others can experiment, but also of course Python.
Summary:
- spacebar calls it up. SHIFT+A still does old toolbox
- hold left or rightmouse for 0.4 second, and it pops up as well
this is experimental! Can be tweaked with Userdef var "ThresA"
- it is a little bit complete for Object mode only. Needs still work
at information desing/structure level
- the code works like an engine, interpreting structs like this:
static TBitem addmenu_curve[]= {
{ 0, "Bezier Curve", 0, NULL},
{ 0, "Bezier Circle", 1, NULL},
{ 0, "NURBS Curve", 2, NULL},
{ 0, "NURBS Circle", 3, NULL},
{ 0, "Path", 4, NULL},
{ -1, "", 0, do_info_add_curvemenu}};
- first value is ICON code,
- then name
- return value
- pointer to optional child
last row has -1 to indicate its the last...
plus a callback to event function.
I also built an old toolbox style callback for this:
static TBitem tb_object_select[]= {
{ 0, "Border Select|B", 'b', NULL},
{ 0, "(De)select All|A", 'a', NULL},
{ 0, "Linked...|Shift L", 'L', NULL},
{ 0, "Grouped...|Shift G", 'G', NULL},
{ -1, "", 0, tb_do_hotkey}};
here the return values are put back as hotkeys in mainqueue.
A mainloop can do all context switching, and build menus on the fly.
Meaning, it also allows other designs such as radials...
