Not very efficient solution -- it'll update mapping node on init ntree exec and will
not work for viewport GLSL shading perhaps, but it's as good as it could be within
current dependency graph.
The issue here is that manual edit of values will cause cached matrix re-evaluation.
but using animation does not use rna update callbacks hence no matrix update was
happening.
Normal Map node support for GLSL mode and the internal render (multiple tangents support).
The Normal Map node is a useful node which is present in the Cycles render.
It makes it possible to use normal mapping without additional material node in a node tree.
This patch implements Normal Map node for GLSL mode and the internal render.
Previously only the active UV layer was used to calculate tangents.
The improved Hosek / Wilkie model was added during my GSoC 2013 and the default since then.
The older model was kinda kept for compatibility, but after more than 2 years it's time to remove it.
The Hosek / Wilkie model is more realistic anyway, and people who really want a day / night transition can mix the Sky Shader with another one (e.g. color) and fade between the two.
This patch implements Mirror influence for environment textures. Approach matches the one from BI.

World space and view space normals were mixed up, we should only convert from
world to view space if a custom normal is connected, otherwise it is already in
view space.
The issue was happening when having unconnected point density which
will cache data but will not free it because there's no actual call
to the actual sampling.
Now the idea is to make sure cache is zeroed on file load and undo
and then caching via RNA will free the data if any exists. This could
leave us with a single copy of cache in the node if it's not used,
but it's quite small amount of memory and it's not leaking.
Based on an user feedback, previous implementation with providing
decoupled X and Y speeds didn't work in production at all: there
is no way to combine this speeds to an usable vector.
So now we're providing speed vector output instead, which provides
speed in an exactly the way Vector Blur node expects it to be:
first two components is a speed from the past, second two components
defines speed to the future.
Old behavior can be achieved by RGBA separating the speed output
and using first tow components.
Now this speed gives quite the same results as a speed pass, with
the only difference that track position speed uses "shutter" of
1 while pass uses shutter of 0.5 (and there's no way to affect on
that?).
The Vector Transform node is a useful node which is present in the Cycles renderer.

This commit changes the way how we pass bounce information to the Light
Path node. Instead of manualy copying the bounces into ShaderData, we now
directly pass PathState. This reduces the arguments that we need to pass
around and also makes it easier to extend the feature.
This commit also exposes the Transmission Bounce Depth to the Light Path
node. It works similar to the Transparent Depth Output: Replace a
Transmission lightpath after X bounces with another shader, e.g a Diffuse
one. This can be used to avoid black surfaces, due to low amount of max
bounces.

I tested compilation and usage on CPU (SVM and OSL), CUDA, OpenCL Split

While SCons building system was serving us really good for ages it's no longer
having much attention by the developers and started to become quite a difficult
task to maintain.
What's even worse -- there started to be quite serious divergence between SCons
and CMake which was only accumulating over the releases now. The fact that none
of the active developers are really using SCons and that our main studio is also
using CMake spotting bugs in the SCons builds became quite a difficult task and
we aren't always spotting them in time.
Meanwhile CMake became really mature building system which is available on every
platform we support and arguably it's also easier and more robust to use.
This commit includes:
- Removal of actual SCons building system
- Removal of SCons git submodule
- Removal of documentation which is stored in the sources and covers SCons
- Tweaks to the buildbot master to stop using SCons submodule
(this change requires deploying to the server)
- Tweaks to the install dependencies script to skip installing or mentioning
SCons building system
- Tweaks to various helper scripts to avoid mention of SCons folders/files
as well

velocity is measured in pixels per frame. It is basically a coordinate
difference of track coordinate at current frame and previous one (no future
prediction happens).
It's not really most intuitive place for such a things, but historically the
node was called this way..
Track velocity could be used to face effects like motion blur bu piping it
to the vector blur node.

Nodes have a feature for moving existing links to unoccupied sockets when connecting
to an already used input. This is based on the standard legacy socket types (value/float,
vector, color/rgba) and works reasonably well for shader, compositor and texture nodes.
For new pynode systems, however, the hardcoded nature of that feature has major drawbacks:
* It does not take different type systems into account, leading to meaningless connections
when sockets are swapped and making the feature useless or outright debilitating.
* Advanced socket behaviors would be possible with a registerable callback, e.g. creating
extensible input lists that move existing connections down to make room for a new link.
Now any handling of new links is done via the 'insert_links' callback, which can also be
registered through the RNA API. For the legacy shader/compo/tex nodes the behavior is the
same, using a C callback.
Note on the 'use_swap' flag: this has been removed because it was meaningless anyway:
It was disabled only for the insert-node-on-link feature, which works only for
completely unconnected nodes anyway, so there would be nothing to swap in the first place.
The issue was caused by non-continuous tangent space calculated for triangles.
This commit adds a Tangent input to Hair BSDF node which can be used to hook up
Tangent calculated form UV as an input to the node in order to make sure the
tangent space is continuous.
Doing this as an input instead of using default tangent layer from UV because of
several reasons:
- This way it's really easy to preserve compatibility with existing setups.
- Default UV map is not necessarily giving continuous space, one might want to
use other tangent space sources or distort the space for some artistic
decision.

- Add blentranslation `BLT_*` module.
- moved & split `BLF_translation.h` into (`BLT_translation.h`, `BLT_lang.h`).
- moved `BLF_*_unifont` functions from `blf_translation.c` to new source file `blf_font_i18n.c`.
The issue was caused by the following construction:
def = env['SOMETHING']
defs.append('SOMETHING_MORE')
Since first assignment was actually referencing environment option it was totally
polluted hawing weird and wonderful side effects on all other areas of Blender.
This commit fixes issues with wrong socket type being added to the Cycles debug
pass compositor operation, which lead to crashes with non-value pass types.
This commit also reverts socket renaming thing because while it's was behaving
ok on runtime file reload might have loose the links which is annoying.
Currently only works correct with single float output, RGBA and vector are not
supported so if one need to use this passes he'll need to wait a bit still.
It is coming, don't worry.
This commit implements point density texture for Cycles shading nodes.
It's done via creating voxel texture at shader compilation time, Not
totally memory efficient, but avoids adding sampling code to kernel
(which keeps render time as low as possible), In the future this will
be compensated by using OpenVDB for more efficient storage of sparse
volume data.
Sampling of the voxel texture is happening at blender side and the
same code is used as for Blender Internal's renderer.
This texture is controlled by only object, particle system and radius.
Linear falloff is used and there's no turbulence. This is because
falloff is expected to happen using Curve Mapping node. Turbulence
will be done as a distortion on the input coordinate. It's already
possible to fake it using nose textures and in the future we can add
more proper turbulence distortion node, which then could also be used
for 2D texture mapping.
Particle color support is done by Lukas, thanks!

Revert "Nodes: Remove hardcoded BLENDER_MAX_THREADS number of threads"
This reverts commit fdc653e8ce.
The threads override is not affected by the scene, and hence the limit of the
threads was not giving correct result. Need to re-consider some things here.
Use actual available number of threads now, which will make it easier
to increase max number of threads, without having some sloppy memory
usage and without doing some redundant checks on thread data which was
never used.
