2012-01-16	Cycles: add option to cache BVH's between subsequent renders, storing the BVH on	Brecht Van Lommel
	disk to be reused by the next render. This is useful for rendering animations where only the camera or materials change. Note that saving the BVH to disk only to be removed for the next frame is slower if this is not the case and the meshes do actually change. For a render, it will save bvh files to the cache user directory, and remove all cache files from other renders. The files are named using a MD5 hash based on the mesh, to verify if the meshes are still the same.
2011-12-04	Fix #29444: cycles problem building BVH with NaN vertices.	Brecht Van Lommel

2011-11-09	edits to cycles cmake files so cmake_consistency_check.py can parse them.	Campbell Barton

2011-10-03	Cycles: fix a few more msvc issues with empty scenes and ustring setting.	Brecht Van Lommel

2011-10-03	Cycles: some tweaks to silence msvc assertions in debug mode.	Brecht Van Lommel

2011-09-02	Cycles:	Brecht Van Lommel
	* Fix crash in light path node * Fix struct alignment issue for cuda * Fix issue with instances taking up too much memory * Fix issue with ray visibility working incorrect on some objects * Enable OpenCL always and remove option, it has no dependencies so may as well * Refuse to load kernel if OpenCL version < 1.1, recent drivers are needed * Better error handling for OpenCL device * 3D views with rendered draw mode will now revert to wireframe on file load
2011-09-01	Cycles:	Brecht Van Lommel
	* Add max diffuse/glossy/transmission bounces * Add separate min/max for transparent depth * Updated/added some presets that use these options * Add ray visibility options for objects, to hide them from camera/diffuse/glossy/transmission/shadow rays * Is singular ray output for light path node Details here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Render/Cycles/LightPaths
2011-08-16	Cycles:	Brecht Van Lommel
	* add some (disabled) test code for using OpenImageIO in imbuf * link cycles, openimageio and boost into blender instead of a shared library * some cmakefile changes to simplify the code and follow conventions better * this may solve running cycles problems on windows XP, or give a different and hopefully more useful error message
2011-08-10	Cycles: clang build fixes.	Brecht Van Lommel

2011-05-03	Cycles: first batch of windows build fixes, not quite there yet.	Brecht Van Lommel

2011-04-28	Cycles: hook up the CMake build system.	Brecht Van Lommel
	New build instructions for Ubuntu Linux in the wiki: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Cycles
2011-04-27	Cycles render engine, initial commit. This is the engine itself, blender ↵	Ton Roosendaal
	modifications and build instructions will follow later. Cycles uses code from some great open source projects, many thanks them: * BVH building and traversal code from NVidia's "Understanding the Efficiency of Ray Traversal on GPUs": http://code.google.com/p/understanding-the-efficiency-of-ray-traversal-on-gpus/ * Open Shading Language for a large part of the shading system: http://code.google.com/p/openshadinglanguage/ * Blender for procedural textures and a few other nodes. * Approximate Catmull Clark subdivision from NVidia Mesh tools: http://code.google.com/p/nvidia-mesh-tools/ * Sobol direction vectors from: http://web.maths.unsw.edu.au/~fkuo/sobol/ * Film response functions from: http://www.cs.columbia.edu/CAVE/software/softlib/dorf.php
