At the point where GPU_build_mesh_buffers is called, the
face_vert_indices map has already been built; it contains the same
data in an easier-to-access format.
As with multires, this change calculates face normals rather than
using vertex normals when the node is flat-shaded.
Flat-shading with VBO on non-multires meshes is still wrong, but
fixing that would require larger changes to our vertex buffers.
Issue is caused by scaling for power of 2 dimensions and mipmapping that happens through GLU. It looks like the library cannot handle float colour values above 1.0 correctly. Since we are close to release I will just clamp the srgb result for now even though it will result in a small performance loss for 16 bit textures only.
I tried a few things before that, glGenerateMipmaps + no scaling (supported for 2.0 GL hardware and up), or using our own scaling instead of glu among them which worked very nicely and gave a speedup too. However, since we are close to release and there may be issues with GPU mipmap generation, see:
http://www.gamedev.net/topic/495747-another-glgeneratemipmap-question/
(old discussion but better be sure than sorry)
I went for the most compatible solution. Maybe after release this can be tested if other devs agree.
support in some older cards, now it does a more precise check for problematic
cards so that it can be enabled on new cards that do support it properly.
This issue is caused by texelFetch which does not take wrapping options into account as it uses unnormalized uv coordinates to access a texel. A hack was made to do manual wrapping in the shader. This is acceptable because texture wrap mode is always treated as "repeat" elsewhere in 3D view in blender.
Thanks to Morten Mikkelsen for pointing out the cause of the issue and providing the fix.
=========================
Documentation: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Psy-Fi/UV_Tools
Major features include:
*16 bit image support in viewport
*Subsurf aware unwrapping
*Smart Stitch(snap/rotate islands, preview, middlepoint/endpoint stitching)
*Seams from islands tool (marks seams and sharp, depending on settings)
*Uv Sculpting(Grab/Pinch/Rotate)
All tools are complete apart from stitching that is considered stable but with an extra edge mode under development(will be in soc-2011-onion-uv-tools).
- use more logical names for strings, noticed too many strings called `str` when reviewing name patch.
- pass __func__ macro to uiBeginBlock(), quite a few names were wrong (copy/paste error).
inconsistent with similar functions & math notation:
mul_m4_m4m4(R, B, A) => mult_m4_m4m4(R, A, B)
mul_m3_m3m4(R, B, A) => mult_m3_m3m4(R, A, B)
For branch maintainers, it should be relatively simple to fix things manually,
it's also possible run this script after merging to do automatic replacement:
