This is a quick fix that perhaps overestimates the point
of first geometry collision, but at least for now it should
allow models that used the old modifier and a too-big
bevel amount to not look awful.
The correct solution to this problem is much more involved
and I'll get to it later.
Now modifier takes a segments parameter.
Bevel edge weights will multiply the overall amount.
For vertex-only, you can give a vertex group name,
and the weights in that will multiply the overall amount.
there were 2 bugs here.
- int buttons scaling values on input but not on display.
- pixel distances were using PROP_DISTANCE subtype - which isn't correct.
added assert incase PROP_INT values have PROP_DISTANCE subtype applied in future.
Caused by my assumption that alpha wasn't used for vertex colors.
Infact it is used by blender-internal rendering, but typically only for blending strand particles.
Updated comments to note this.
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!
This means the deformation on the input to the modifier can be re-applied ontop of the mesh cache.
In practice this is most useful for using corrective shape-keys with mesh-cache.
* Made the property UI range do bigger steps.
* Increased default values a bit. If people need extreme small values (0.00001) they can enter that manually.
officially - modifiers shouldn't calc other objects derived mesh, but in some cases its needed at the moment for certain scenes, so just disallow booleans depending on booleans.
It was caused by image threading safe commit and it was noticeable
only on really multi-core CPU (like dual-socket Xeon stations), was
not visible on core i7 machine.
The reason of slowdown was spinlock around image buffer referencing,
which lead to lots of cores waiting for single core and using image
buffer after it was referenced was not so much longer than doing
reference itself.
The most clear solution here seemed to be introducing Image Pool
which will contain list of loaded and referenced image buffers, so
all threads could skip lock if the pool is used for reading only.
Lock only needed in cases when buffer for requested image user is
missing in the pool. This lock will happen only once per image so
overall amount of locks is much less that it was before.
To operate with pool:
- BKE_image_pool_new() creates new pool
- BKE_image_pool_free() destroys pool and dereferences all image
buffers which were loaded to it
- BKE_image_pool_acquire_ibuf() returns image buffer for given
image and user. Pool could be NULL and in this case fallback to
BKE_image_acquire_ibuf will happen.
This helps to avoid lots to if(poll) checks in image sampling
code.
- BKE_image_pool_release_ibuf releases image buffer. In fact, it
will only do something if pool is NULL, in all other case it'll
equal to DoNothing operation.
Also:
* Fixes a (op prop) bug which prevented, once you had baked and freed ocean once, to bake again.
* Fixed infinite values of acumulated foam when baking with foam_fade values above 1.0, now simply clipping accumulated foam value to 1.0, as already done for the "instantaneaous" foam value returned by BKE_ocean_jminus_to_foam().
* Added missing RNA descriptions.
* Made foam_fade unanimatable!
* Added in UI some missing properties that are imho useful: random seed, size (kindof 'surface scaling'), and foam_fade (baking only).
* Removed custom lerp() func from bke's ocean.c, BLI's interpf does exactly the same thing (the first two args are just in reversed order). Note: this could most certainly be done in other parts of the code, bpy's mathutils for e.g. has its own linear interpolation code for vectors and matrices :/).
* Did some general code cleanup (mostly line length and no C++ -> C comments)...
