Preview render for node shaders broke, caused by localizing
materials last week, to prevent thread crashes. Fixed now.
Also added a temp fix to draw color-management corrected
node previews default. Will follow scene setting tomorrow.
Also: SSS in nodes doesn't render yet. Was issue in 2.4 too...
* Pointcache code was quite ugly looking and complicated, so here are mostly just cosmetic adjustments, but some improved logic also.
* Slight cleanup of pointcache ui too.
* Shouldn't have any functional changes what so ever, so poke me right away if something seems off.
When compositing without render (Enable composite, no renderlayer nodes)
the option Full Sample AA caused havoc. Added warning for this case
and gracefully stop render.
* documented and rewrote the render interface of the sequencer.
(now, the geometry / render_type / etc. settings are stored within a
seperate structure called SeqRenderData that is passed within the code.)
* that fixes
* cache problems, since the caching system didn't keep track of
proxy files vs. final renders.
* is a necessary step, to bring back frame blending in speed effect
(the SeqRenderData structure elements are already there)
* will make motion blur render options available within the sequencer!
* this patch also fixes:
* "easy retiming" using speed effects. (in Blender 2.49, you could
add a speed effect and resize the source track to retime it to that
length)
* adds labels for the Original dimensions for Image + Movie tracks
(worked in 2.49, too)
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
The main reason to have this is so renders can be scripted to write to a specific file without having to do annoying tricks like set a dummy start/end frame range, render an animation and work out the current frame image will be written to, then rename after rendering.
Also made some 'char *' args into 'const char *'
The scenes 'Render' is kept by blender while blender runs but the callbacks were not cleared when the render was done.
In this case the callback would reference a freed render job.
This isn't normally a problem because on re-rendering new callbacks are set, however the sequencer can render a previously rendered scene without setting up callbacks.
Simple fix is to to dummy callbacks applied onto the scenes 'Render' struct once its finished.
* FSA and motion blur can't work nicely together the way they're currently implemented, so I disabled this in the ui and code.
* FSA is used if both are selected.
* Also changed the name "Full Sample Motion Blur" to "Sampled Motion Blur" to avoid confusion with full sample anti-aliasing.
large render sizes could cause an the threaded tile processor to hang because winx * winy wrapped into a negative value.
also convert winx/winy to floats before multiplying for vector passs.
* This fix is really only a bandage, as the underlying issue is that sequencer preview render doesn't yet use the job system.
* The sequencer preview can start a full render of the scene, and this can collide with other preview/actual renders in many cases.
* Drawing the sequencer preview is now disabled when an other render is in progress, but the sequence preview rendering could have already been started before the other render, so this doesn't really fix anything.
* For now only OpenGL rendering can be used for the sequencer preview reliably until it's reimplemented using the job system.
* Using the job system in the future can handle the clashes between different renders properly and will give users a nice progress bar to indicate something is happening while the preview is recalculated.
Both stored the filename of the blend file, but G.sce stored the last opened file.
This will make blender act differently in some cases since a relative path to the last opened file will no longer resolve (which is correct IMHO since that file isnt open and the path might not even be valid anymore).
Tested linking with durian files and rendering to relative paths when no files is loaded however we may need to have some operators give an error if they are used on the default startup.blend.
- omit render code from this warning (cmake only), until render branch is merged.
- moved -Wunused-parameter warning to apply to all C code in blender (not just ./source/blender), (cmake only).
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
the render engine assumes the RenderResult's rectf is not in linear color space when color management is disabled so the sequencer and opengl render need to follow this else it results in dark images.
This patch cleans up the sequencer core by replacing the caching system
(TStripElems) with a hash based system, which is:
a) a lot faster
b) a lot more readable
c) a lot more memory conserving
The new caching system is also a good building ground for
a) sub frame precision rendering (even on scene strips)
b) multi core rendering (threaded rendering is still disabled, but can
be extended now to arbitrary core numbers)
I tested the code on an extensive editing session today and had no
crashes during 4 hours of editing. So I consider it very stable.
Bugfix: free_imbuf_seq() was closing IMB anim handles on nearly every
change of RNA variables. This can be *very* slow, if you twiddle with
parameters during playback. Especially multicam editing...
Now: we close IMB anim handles only on refresh_all() and filepath
changes.
* Fractional frames support has been changed to use a new var, scene->r.subframe.
This is a 0.0-1.0 float representing a subframe interval, used in generating a final float
frame number to evaluate animation system etc.
* Changed frame_to_float() and some instances of bsystem_time() into a convenience function:
float BKE_curframe(scene) which retrieves the floating point current frame, after subframe
and frame length corrections.
* Removed blur_offs and field_offs globals. These are now stored in render, used to
generate a scene->r.subframe before render database processing.
Now, rather than the bit-too-alarming stop sign, threaded wmJobs
display a progress indicator in the header. This is an optional feature
for each job type and still uses the same hardcoded ui template
(could use further work here...).
Currently implemented for:
Render - parts completed, then nodes comped
Compositor - nodes comped
Fluid Sim - frames simulated
Texture Bake - faces baked
Example: http://mke3.net/blender/devel/2.5/progress.mov
- fix implicit decloration of DAG_scene_sort()
- same fix for tiff as made in renderbranch
- rename 'combined peak' --> 'peak' for shorter messages while rendering.
* Take border render into account when drawing grid before for render
result becomes visible.
* Use antialiasing for rendering icon previews.
* Fix Full Sample not drawing render result while rendering.
* Mesh Deform Modifier: also forgot to commit this file.
if compositing, sequencer, fields, etc should be rendered, or if the
render does that itself. The weak point is that this only applies to
rendering, so if you open the compositor, it will still run on the
rendered result. Enabled by default, set to False to disable.
