This commit contains all the remained parts needed for initial integration of
OpenSubdiv into Blender's subdivision surface code. Includes both GPU and CPU
backends which works in the following way:
- When SubSurf modifier is the last in the modifiers stack then GPU pipeline
of OpenSubdiv is used, making viewport performance as fast as possible.
This also requires graphscard with GLSL 1.5 support. If this requirement is
not met, then no GPU pipeline is used at all.
- If SubSurf is not a last modifier or if DerivesMesh is being evaluated for
rendering then CPU limit evaluation API from OpenSubdiv is used. This only
replaces the legacy evaluation code from CCGSubSurf_legacy, but keeps CCG
structures exactly the same as they used to be for ages now.
This integration is fully covered with ifdef and not enabled by default
because there are several TODOs to be solved first:
- Face varying data interpolation is not really cleanly implemented for GPU
in OpenSubdiv 3.0. It is also not implemented for limit evaluation API.
This basically means we'll have really hard time supporting UVs.
- Limit evaluation only works with adaptivly subdivided meshes so far, which
basically means all the points of CCG are pushed to the limit. This gives
different result from old code.
- There are some serious optimizations possible on the topology refiner
creation, which would speed up initial OpenSubdiv mesh creation.
- There are some hardcoded asumptions in the GPU and DerivedMesh areas which
could be generalized.
That's something where Antony and Campbell can help, making it so the code
is structured in a way which is reusable by all planned viewport projects.
- There are also some workarounds in the dependency graph to make sure OpenGL
buffers are only freed from the main thread.
Those who'll be wanting to make experiments with this code should grab dev
branch (NOT master) from

There are some patches applied in there which we're working on on getting
into upstream.
This commit implements point density texture for Cycles shading nodes.
It's done via creating voxel texture at shader compilation time, Not
totally memory efficient, but avoids adding sampling code to kernel
(which keeps render time as low as possible), In the future this will
be compensated by using OpenVDB for more efficient storage of sparse
volume data.
Sampling of the voxel texture is happening at blender side and the
same code is used as for Blender Internal's renderer.
This texture is controlled by only object, particle system and radius.
Linear falloff is used and there's no turbulence. This is because
falloff is expected to happen using Curve Mapping node. Turbulence
will be done as a distortion on the input coordinate. It's already
possible to fake it using nose textures and in the future we can add
more proper turbulence distortion node, which then could also be used
for 2D texture mapping.
Particle color support is done by Lukas, thanks!
This is basically a bad-level call: ui scripts are registered *after*
the modules. It only works for addons because those are loaded even
later.
Now the nodeitems_utils module just defines a function which is then
called by the UI script, rather than the other way around.

- default alignment to lower center.
- placement is now relative,
so changing output size keeps correct placement.
- instead of center override, add align option (left/right/center).
Also don't use pixel-size for setting the font size, on new strips.
Better not have UI prefs impact low level API's.
This patch introduces a couple new stroke modifiers. The ones currently implemented are based on prototypes by @kjym3 and myself.
The new modifiers:
- Tangent
- Thickness noise
- Crease Angle
- Simplification
- Curvature 3D
The documentation for these new modifier types can be found [[ http://www.blender.org/manual/render/freestyle/parameter_editor/index.html | in the manual ]]:

Current behavior of bevel is to 'loop slide' along unbeveled edges
when possible, but this produces uneven bevel widths sometimes,
so this option lets user choose between having the loop slide effect
or having more even bevel widths. Trying it out with default being
'no loop slide', so different from current behavior. May reverse this
choice later, depending on user reactions.
This commit adds a new operator that will compile the list of text
strips into an srt file. No positioning is supported yet but will
be added later.
The operator can be found in the effect panel in the strip properties.
Is pretty much what it says :)
Easy subtitles for everyone!
Supports size, positioning,
a cheap shadow effect (probably will need more work),
and autocentering on x axis.
Now you can go wild with long spanish names
in your soap opera videos.
Will probably be refined as days go by,
but at least it's now ready for testing.
Parallel rendering was not working.
The idea of having parallel convergence mode to render as parallel but
visualize as off-axis was good, but it was leading to some complications
in the code.
I think it's more clear to the user if parallel looks and render as
parallel, and if she wants to pre-visualize the converged planes, simply
temporarily set the camera to off-axis.
Angular velocity clamping was missing from the BGE. It is implemented
similarly to the linear velocity clamping. It is needed to be able to
drive physical simulations of systems that have a limited rotational
speed.

they are supported
aka, remove multiview properties from the texture panel, the textures
node (image), and any other parts.
The multiview options are now to be explicitly set in the image template
in order to have them available in the respective panel
The functionality was there, but the UI was missing, since I introduced
the use_mutliview option in the Image datablocks.
Note: when opening the image via the background image UI it has its
views data mangled. I'll look at that. Meanwhile the fix is to toggle
Use Multi-View manually in the UI.
bpy.path.clean_name() and AddPresetBase.as_filename() were doing
inefficient search-replace of individual characters.
Use cached replacement table instead.
Add slider to adjust the influence of weights relative to geometry distortion.
This allows subtle influences to be applied - without drastic changes in behavior.
This is needed when you want to bake only part of an armature's bones, since they
all share a single action, otherwise you'd lose non-baked bones' animation...
Enum's itemf callback can be called without context in some cases (UI, doc generation...).
Python's enum properties did not handle this at all - it's kind of odd this did not cause
more trouble and wasn't notice earlier... Probably dynamic enums using context are not
much used in py code.
Note about nodes: those are heavy users of dynamic enum with context. Now,
we expect `NodeCategory.poll()` and `NodeItem.poll()` to always be called with
a valid context (since when there is no context available, we can assume `poll()`
is always True). `NodeCategory.items()`, however, must accept NULL context, so if
you use custom `items` callable for your custom node categories, you may need
to update it (as was done here for builtin `node_group_items()`).
We have too much of those cases in our UI, if we want to keep operators doing
several similar/related but yet different tasks, we should have a real way to
support it on label/icon/tip side too. Easier to say than to do though. :|
