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.
The VBO index type can be either ushort or uint depending on the grid
size. The comparison was checking how many quads are in the array, but
this was incorrect; the size of the index elements should depend on
the maximum value they reference, i.e. the maximum coord/normal
element.
All multires grids have exactly the same ordering, so rather than
allocate a new index buffer for each PBVH node, just allocate one that
can be reused for every grid.
This requires more draw calls (one per grid rather than one per PBVH
node), but less graphics memory.
Previously, the shading and material was set once per PBVHNode when
drawing. This is still the case, but PBVHNodes are now built to
contain only one material and shading mode.
This is done with an extra partitioning step; once the number of
primitives in the node falls below the PBVH leaf limit, it's
primitives are checked for matching materials. If more than one
material or shading mode is present in the node, it is split and
partitioned (partitioned by material rather than 3D location.)
Given a sufficiently 'annoying' input, like a dense mesh with
thousands of materials randomly scattered across it, this could
greatly increase PBVH build time (since nodes might end up containing
a single primitive), but in general this shouldn't come up.
In order to support materials for grids, the CCGDM is building another
grid array (of DMFaceMat structs). This could be used to replace
CCGDM.faceFlag for some small memory savings (TODO).
- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
added some missing functions too - which are not used yep but should be there for api completeness.
* CDDM_set_mloop
* CDDM_set_mpoly
* BLI_mempool_count
When set to solid-shading, GPU_update_grid_buffers was calling
normal_quad_v3 to output into a mapped buffer, but normal_quad_v3
reads as well as writes.
This fix actually makes a huge performance difference with my drivers
(Gallium/Radeon).
There are a number of features that use a kind of "internal linking" in nodes:
1. muting
2. delete + reconnect (restore link to/from node after delete)
3. the new detach operator (same as 2, but don't delete the node)
The desired behavior in all cases is the same: find a sensible mapping of inputs-to-outputs of a node. In the case of muting these links are displayed in red on the node itself. For the other operators they are used to relink connections, such that one gets the best possible ongoing link between previous up- and downstream nodes.
Muting previously used a complicated callback system to ensure consistent behavior in the editor as well as execution in compositor, shader cpu/gpu and texture nodes. This has been greatly simplified by moving the muting step into the node tree localization functions. Any muted node is now bypassed using the generalized nodeInternalRelink function and then removed from the local tree. This way the internal execution system doesn't have to deal with muted nodes at all, as if they are non-existent.
The same function is also used by the delete_reconnect and the new links_detach operators (which work directly in the editor node tree). Detaching nodes is currently keymapped as a translation variant (macro operator): pressing ALTKEY + moving node first detaches and then continues with regular transform operator. The default key is ALT+DKEY though, instead ALT+GKEY, since the latter is already used for the ungroup operator.
Disabled double-side lighting by default and changed areas which are using
double sided lighting to switch it off just after doing stuff which requires
double side.
This makes code a bit more simple to follow (no all that disabling double side
lighting all over the code and so).
This change also fixes crash of blender caused by intel gme965 driver which
leads to stack corruption in some place when double side lighting isn't
disabled (probably driver still kind of using double side in some areas or so).
Hopefully it'll also fix#30293: Converting Text to Mesh
Thanks to Campbell to assist writing this patch!
At the point where GPU_build_mesh_buffers is called, the
face_vert_indices map has already been built; it contains the same
data in an easier-to-access format.
As with multires, this change calculates face normals rather than
using vertex normals when the node is flat-shaded.
Flat-shading with VBO on non-multires meshes is still wrong, but
fixing that would require larger changes to our vertex buffers.
Issue is caused by scaling for power of 2 dimensions and mipmapping that happens through GLU. It looks like the library cannot handle float colour values above 1.0 correctly. Since we are close to release I will just clamp the srgb result for now even though it will result in a small performance loss for 16 bit textures only.
I tried a few things before that, glGenerateMipmaps + no scaling (supported for 2.0 GL hardware and up), or using our own scaling instead of glu among them which worked very nicely and gave a speedup too. However, since we are close to release and there may be issues with GPU mipmap generation, see:
http://www.gamedev.net/topic/495747-another-glgeneratemipmap-question/
(old discussion but better be sure than sorry)
I went for the most compatible solution. Maybe after release this can be tested if other devs agree.
