soc-2008-nicholasbishop branch.
Note: any old code with multires_test() or multires_level1_test() can
just be deleted, not needed by the multires modifier.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
From the anti-globalization department:
G.obedit terminated!
Wherever possible, use CTX_data_edit_object(C) to get this
now. It's stored in scene now, and the screen context has
it defined.
Cleanup
- for portablity we can keep the old ugly defines for retrieving
active object, cfra and so on. But, they will use 'scene' not
G.scene.
- fixed code that uses those defines.
- some unused variables/functions removed
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r12987:17416
Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
Bah... fix for envmaps just before 2.48 release gave good looking envmaps
only when there was no sky involved...
The alpha in environment maps should be reset to 255... something that was
never done before, but also didn't show errors until other fixes in image
rendering were done.
Particle system crashed in convertblender, missing NULL check.
This fixes crash, render survives, but I doubt it was meant so...
Will leave it Janne to evaluate later.
regression files, it showed small dark outline errors on envmap.
This commit rewinds bugfix #8437, which actually had to be fixed on
another location in code, which was done a few weeks ago. :)
Index OB pass didn't support FSA for Ztransp.
Also made buttons to set black/white for non-RGBA images hide in Image Window,
the Curves color code only supports 4 channels atm.
proper results, should bake as if SSS was disabled.
- Fix for GLSL to handle failing shadow buffer creation better.
- Fix for sky/atmosphere version patch, was not doing files from 2.46
and newer.
due to jittering of the start position for antialiasing in a pixel.
Now it distributes the start position over the fixed osa sample
positions, instead of of random positions in space. The ugly bit is
that a custom ordering was defined for osa 8/11/16 to ensure that the
first 4 are distributed relatively fair for adaptive sampling to decide
if more samples need to be taken.
- the number of segments was always 1 too many on cyclic curves.
- [#17739] - normals were not being calculated when rendering curves.
Replaced macro DL_SURFINDEX with a function. it that assumes variable names and could break from the loop that called it.
SunSky didn't include skycolor in raytrace.
Note: there seems to be an error in sunsky when looking straight down,
so this option requires raytracing stuff not in outer space. :)
* subsurf code had a lot of unused variables, removed these where they are obviously not needed. commented if they could be useful later.
* some variables declorations hide existing variables (many of these left), but fixed some that could cause confusion.
* removed unused vars
* obscure python memory leak with colorband.
* make_sample_tables had a loop running wasnt used.
* if 0'd functions in arithb.c that are not used yet.
* made many functions static
- removed ugly clamping function (it was dividing XYZ based on max of
one of the values)
- added option to use Exposure, this only works for brightness (Y).
results look very pleasant, foggy and hazy results are possible.
with exposre==0, no exposure happens for HDR extreme range skies,
this is how yafray rendered it.
- added menu for choosing color spaces (CIE = modern lcds)
Please review! (and yes i know it's still not in World :)
Zbuffer error in render: when you render faces clipped by 'clip end' the
z values could wrap around, resulting in errors. Code not nicely clamps,
plus should be faster even!
- Added blending mode and factor option, so it's more clear and
controllable what happens with it. Also nice for crazy effects
of course!
- Preview render now shows preview for it too
On the todos:
- have this in World buttons (as well) for quicker sky setups
- review math of color clamping and scaling, this is definitely
not good... but a fix will make old files look very different.
- Changed order for applying atmosphere, it does it now before alpha-adding
sky, giving correct transparency
- Added correction for de-premulling and premulling scatter color
Commit patch #7788, allow to set the render step, so it's
possible make render every N frames only.
The step is change in Scene buttons (F10), below start and
end frame buttons.
Also add a command line options (-j), so it's possible to
overwrite the file step (useful for renderfarm).
[ Brecht, this work with OpenGL renders and simulated
the skipped frames, please double check ]
Finally, after a long time new render candy for the non-game peoples! :)
Good doc is here: (url splits in two)
http://www.harkyman.com/2008/08/06/controllable-shadow-intensity-
and-color/
Note the colorpicker for shadow is in "Shadow and Spot" panel. A bit
hidden, could get more attention. For later. :)
not give a smooth fallof. there's no correct fix possible due
to a lack of information, but this manually adds a smoother
falloff, overestimating the contribution of foregroud pixels
instead of becoming transparent.
halo material attach to the object instead of the mesh.
Also for bug #13489: avoid a crash rendering with invalid
active vcol layer, most likely caused by a bug that was
already fixed.
