buffers option, it requires specific tile sizes and if they don't match what
OpenEXR expects file saving can get stuck.
Now I've made support for his optional, with a bl_use_save_buffers property for
RenderEngine, set to False by default.
before this only active scene would be rendered with border.
When do_render_fields_blur_3d() is finished, it'll modify
render's display rect so it'll correspond bordered render
result placed on black backgrund. Actual border is stored
nowhere, which makes it only way to re-calculate disprect
for all other renders used in compo based on source. Not
so big deal actually.
Also needed to modify Cycles a bit, because before this
patch it used border settings from scene being rendered.
Now made it so render data is passing to external engines.
Using a property inside RenderEngine structure for this.
Not best ever design for passing render data, but this
would prevent API breakage. So now external engines could
access engine.render to access active rendering settings.
Reviewed by Brecht, thanks!
Now the RenderEngine.render callback allows writing blender data again, it
should not be allowed but in practice the API and render threading code is
too limited to make this work at the moment.
This sub-type is actually *only* needed for the "text" property of UI rna api (maybe we should rename it to "PROP_PY_TRANSLATE", as it is anyway only 'active' during conversion from py string to RNA string property...). In fact, I think it should only be used in RNA func properties anyway, as it stores the translated string into the property, it should only be used with "one time" RNA stuff...
This commit implements highlight of tiles which are being currently
rendered for both Blender Internal and Cycles (and should be possible
to use it for other external engines as well).
Couple of implementation details:
- Added one extra boolean flag to render engine which should be set
to truth if render engine wants to highlight tiles. If so, property
use_highlight_tiles should be set to True.
- Render Part's ready boolena was changed by status enum, which could
be NONE, IN_PROGRESS and READY. All render part with IN_PROGRESS
status will be highlighted in image editor.
- For external engines render part's status is filling in automatically.
Initially all render parts has got NONE status, then one external
engine acquire render result, corresponding part will change status
to IN_PROGRESS. As soon as render result is finished, corresponding
render part will change status to FINISHED
This should make it easy to highlight tiles for other engines as well.
This commit adds memory usage information while rendering.
It reports memory used by device, meaning:
- For CPU it'll report real memory consumption
- For GPU rendering it'll report GPU memory consumption, but it'll
also mean the same memory is used from host side.
This information displays information about memory requested by Cycles,
not memory really allocated on a device. Real memory usage might be
higher because of memory fragmentation or optimistic memory allocator.
There's really nothing we can do against this.
Also in contrast with blender internal's render cycles memory usage
does not include memory used by scene, only memory needed by cycles
itself will be displayed. So don't freak out if memory usage reported
by cycles would be much lower than blender internal's.
This commit also adds RenderEngine.update_memory_stats callback which
is used to tell memory consumption from external engine to blender.
This information is used to generate information line after rendering
is finished.
* Shader script node added, which stores either a link to a text datablock or
file on disk, and has functions to add and remove sockets.
* Callback RenderEngine.update_script_node(self, node) added for render engines
to compile the shader and update the node with new sockets.
Thanks to Thomas, Lukas and Dalai for the implementation.
Added support of such features, as:
- Ability to call RNA functions using C++ classes
For example RenderEngine.tag_update
- Property setters (for scalars and arrays)
Used Qt/jQuery-like getters/setters style, meaning Class.prop() is a getter,
Class.prop(value) is a setter.
Still to come:
Collection functions are not currently registering inside a property
Meaning BlendData.meshes wouldn't be a subclass of BlendDataMeshes result
you'll need to explicitly create BlendDataMeshes for now instead of doing
BlendData.meshes.remove()
- when renderlayers could not be found in save_render_result_tile() blender would crash.
- RE_engine_end_result() / rna end_result() didn't set result argument as required.
... also some style cleanup.
Regular rendering now works tiled, and supports save buffers to save memory
during render and cache render results.

Various bug fixes by Sergey and Campbell.
* Fix for reading freed memory in some node setups.
* Fix incorrect memory read when synchronizing mesh motion.
* Fix crash appearing when direct light usage is different on different layers.
* Fix for vector pass gives wrong result in some circumstances.
* Fix for wrong resolution used for rendering Render Layer node.
* Option to cancel rendering when doing initial synchronization.
* No more texture limit when using CPU render.
* Many fixes for new tiled rendering.
Note about long lines: I did not touch to two pieces of code (because I don’t see any way to keep a nicely formated, compact code, with shorter lines):
* The node types definitions into rna_nodetree_types.h
* The vgroup name functions into rna_particle.c
Currently supported passes:
* Combined, Z, Normal, Object Index, Material Index, Emission, Environment,
Diffuse/Glossy/Transmission x Direct/Indirect/Color
Not supported yet:
* UV, Vector, Mist
Only enabled for CPU devices at the moment, will do GPU tweaks tommorrow,
also for environment importance sampling.

* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.

* This adds a Rendered draw type in the 3D view, only available when
the render engine implements the view_draw callback.
* 3D view now stores a pointer to a RenderEngine.
* view_draw() callback will do OpenGL drawing instead of the viewport.
* view_update() callback is called after depsgraph updates.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.6/Source/Render/RenderEngineAPI
* RenderEngine is now a persistent python object that exists and retains
properties as long as a frame is being rendered. This is mostly useful now
that more than one callback will be added.
* Added update() callback that should ideally be used to export the scene,
leaving only the rendering to the render() callback. This is not required to
be used at this point, but separating this will make things more thread safe
later on.
* Added tag_redraw() and tag_update() functions that will be used for viewport
rendering.
* Internal change: status text is now retained after update_status calls.
now also made non-material/world/lamp stuff use old texture datablocks, no time
to get this fully working now. Still some python tweaks to do to ensure the right
panels show.
* Show Rendered Viewport Shading only when the engine supports it.
Only enabled for Cycles now.
* Added RenderEngine flag RE_DO_RENDERED, which is an optional flag.
Exposed as bl_use_rendered in Python.
ToDo: When you are in Rendered mode and change to a engine which does not support it, the enum doesn't set properly to OB_SOLID.
