2012-01-25	Cycles: Render Passes	Brecht Van Lommel
	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. Documentation: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Passes
2011-12-20	Cycles: border rendering support, includes some refactoring in how pixels are	Brecht Van Lommel
	accessed on devices.
2011-11-12	Cycles:	Brecht Van Lommel
	* Fix object scaling update issue with interactive rendering + static BVH. * Fix negative scaling issue with static BVH. * Fix #29217: excessive fireflies in first sample.
2011-10-29	Cycles: seed value to get different noise values from renders, there was a patch	Brecht Van Lommel
	for this but I've implemented it differently.
2011-09-16	Cycles: tweaks to properties and nodes	Brecht Van Lommel
	* Passes renamed to samples * Camera lens radius renamed to aperature size/blades/rotation * Glass and fresnel nodes input is now index of refraction * Glossy and velvet fresnel socket removed * Mix/add closure node renamed to mix/add shader node * Blend weight node added for shader mixing weights There is some version patching code for reading existing files, but it's not perfect, so shaders may work a bit different.
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
