2012-04-30	Cycles: support for motion vector and UV passes.	Brecht Van Lommel
	Most of the changes are related to adding support for motion data throughout the code. There's some code for actual camera/object motion blur raytracing but it's unfinished (it badly slows down the raytracing kernel even when the option is turned off), so that code it disabled still. Motion vector export from Blender tries to avoid computing derived meshes when the mesh does not have a deforming modifier, and it also won't store motion vectors for every vertex if only the object or camera is moving.
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
2011-09-01	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

	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
