- multires cache files and image .tex cache support in dependency list
- Compare md5 of files before using a local copy (not one transfered by netrender). Could be changed to a simpler CRC if speed is an issue. The goal is not to have a strong crypto signature but just to detect outdated local files.
- Reduce slave timeout to 5 minutes (down from 30). Slaves should report at most every 30s, there's no reason for a value to be that high.
- Reorder the presentation tables on the main web page (job list is more important)
- Collapse dependency list by default on job page (only show main file and headers for other files, point cache and fluid cache)
- Slave option (default: True) to also output render log to the console (as well as the usual copy to the master)
Also force post process off.
This is a partial fix for Bug [#21410], there is still the problem that loading back multilayer exr as render results doesn't load the composited result correctly (bug is assigned to Brecht). The results are still ok when downloaded outside of the render engine, so there's a work around for now.
Slave and Master options to delete files when closed (default True for slave, False for Master)
Web interface option to remove files (on master) when deleting a job (or all jobs)
Web interface button to pause a job
- Add "Get Result" button after a job has been sent (this calls Animate and fetches the results back as render result buffers)
- Rendering (animate or single frame) without an active job was broken. Note that this launches a new job for each frame (it's impossible in a render engine to know if an animation is being rendered or a single frame only).
- Patch by Olivier Amrein (prettying the web interface with css, fixing some notification bugs)
- More error checks on the slave (better behavior when job is canceled)
- Client: when using "Animate on Network" and canceling render midway, also cancel job. Use Send Job and Animate if you want a real background job.
use a real object for files instead of a tuple
unique urls for files, logs and render results (just missing the proper mime type for exr files)
fix bug with slaves not getting the correct machine name
Support for fluid files and better support for point cache (including external cache for particles)
This also fixes a couple of bugs with frame based dependencies and with file transfer.
NOTE: With external point cache and fluids, the path needs to be relative or relative to the file (starting with //) if the files are not on a shared drive. It should eventually warn if that is not the case, but doesn't right now, so be careful.
