The code checked for the presence of more than one tile before
substituting the tile number into the filename, so if a one-tile
UDIM was used (or all but one tile were culled), the substitution
was skipped and as a result the file was not found.
With this change, the code explicitly tracks whether substitution
is required, avoiding this problem.
This also fixes another problem: The Environment texture never
does substitution since it doesn't support UDIMs, but before the
syncing code still inserted the placeholder into the filename if the
user selected a tiled background image.
This patch contains the work that I did during my week at the Code Quest - adding support for tiled images to Blender.
With this patch, images now contain a list of tiles. By default, this just contains one tile, but if the source type is set to Tiled, the user can add additional tiles. When acquiring an ImBuf, the tile to be loaded is specified in the ImageUser.
Therefore, code that is not yet aware of tiles will just access the default tile as usual.
The filenames of the additional tiles are derived from the original filename according to the UDIM naming scheme - the filename contains an index that is calculated as (1001 + 10*<y coordinate of the tile> + <x coordinate of the tile>), where the x coordinate never goes above 9.
Internally, the various tiles are stored in a cache just like sequences. When acquired for the first time, the code will try to load the corresponding file from disk. Alternatively, a new operator can be used to initialize the tile similar to the New Image operator.
The following features are supported so far:
- Automatic detection and loading of all tiles when opening the first tile (1001)
- Saving all tiles
- Adding and removing tiles
- Filling tiles with generated images
- Drawing all tiles in the Image Editor
- Viewing a tiled grid even if no image is selected
- Rendering tiled images in Eevee
- Rendering tiled images in Cycles (in SVM mode)
- Automatically skipping loading of unused tiles in Cycles
- 2D texture painting (also across tiles)
- 3D texture painting (also across tiles, only limitation: individual faces can not cross tile borders)
- Assigning custom labels to individual tiles (drawn in the Image Editor instead of the ID)
- Different resolutions between tiles
There still are some missing features that will be added later (see T72390):
- Workbench engine support
- Packing/Unpacking support
- Baking support
- Cycles OSL support
- many other Blender features that rely on images

Custom render passes are added in the Shader AOVs panel in the view layer
settings, with a name and data type. In shader nodes, an AOV Output node
is then used to output either a value or color to the pass.
Arbitrary names can be used for these passes, as long as they don't conflict
with built-in passes that are enabled. The AOV Output node can be used in both
material and world shader nodes.

This patch allows the Voronoi node to operate in 1D, 2D, and 4D space.
It also adds a Randomness input to control the randomness of the texture.
Additionally, it adds three new modes of operation:
- Smooth F1: A smooth version of F1 Voronoi with no discontinuities.
- Distance To Edge: Returns the distance to the edges of the cells.
- N-Sphere Radius: Returns the radius of the n-sphere inscribed in
the cells. In other words, it is half the distance between the
closest feature point and the feature point closest to it.
And it removes the following three modes of operation:
- F3.
- F4.
- Cracks.
The Distance metric is now called Euclidean, and it computes the actual
euclidean distance as opposed to the old method of computing the squared
euclidean distance.
This breaks backward compatibility in many ways, including the base case.

* Rendered shading gains "Use Scene Lights" and "Use Scene World" options similar to current Material Preview. These will be enabled by default. When Use Scene World is turned off, HDRIs will be used for lighting instead. These options are available for EEVEE and Cycles.

This also replaces the Use Alpha setting. We now have these alpha modes:
* Straight: store RGB and alpha channels separately with alpha acting as a
mask, also known as unassociated alpha.
* Premultiplied: transparent RGB pixels are multiplied by the alpha channel.
The natural format for renders.
* Channel Packed: different images are packed in the RGB and alpha channels,
and they should not influence each other. Channel packing is commonly used
by game engines to save memory.
* None: ignore alpha channel from the file and make image fully opaque.
Cycles OSL does not correctly support Channel Packed and None yet, we are
missing fine control over the OpenImageIO texture cache to do that.

Cycles lights now use strength and color properties of the light outside
of the shading nodes, just like Eevee. The shading nodes then act as a
multiplier on this, and become optional unless textures, fallof or other
effects are desired.
Backwards compatibility is not exact, as we can't be sure which renderer
the .blend was designed for or even if it was designed for a single one.
If the render engine in the active scene is set to Cycles, lights are
converted to ensure overall light strength remains the same, and removing
unnecessary shader node setups that only included a single emission node.
If the engine is set to Eevee, we increase strength to remove the automatic
100x multiplier that was there to match Cycles.

Cycles now uses the color space on the image datablock, and uses OpenColorIO
to convert to scene linear as needed. Byte images do not take extra memory,
they are compressed in scene linear + sRGB transfer function which in common
cases is a no-op.
Eevee and workbench were changed to work similar. Float images are stored as
scene linear. Byte images are compressed as scene linear + sRGB and stored in
a GL_SRGB8_ALPHA8 texture. From the GLSL shader side this means they are read
as scene linear, simplifying the code and taking advantage of hardware support.
Further, OpenGL image textures are now all stored with premultiplied alpha.
Eevee texture sampling looks a little different now because interpolation
happens premultiplied and in scene linear space.
Overlays and grease pencil work in sRGB space so those now have an extra
conversion to sRGB after reading from image textures. This is not particularly
elegant but as long as engines use different conventions, one or the other
needs to do conversion.
This change breaks compatibility for cases where multiple image texture nodes
were using the same image with different color space node settings. However it
gives more predictable behavior for baking and texture painting if save, load
and image editing operations have a single color space to handle.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D4807
These are the internal changes to Cycles, for Blender integration there are no
functional changes in this commit.
Images are converted to scene linear color space on file load, and on reading
from the OpenImageIO texture cache. 8-bit images are compressed with the sRGB
transfer function to avoid precision loss while keeping memory usages low. This
also means that for common cases of 8-bit sRGB images no conversion happens at
all on image loading.
