Summary:
========
The idea here is to move the texface options into the material panel.
For images with the change please visit:
http://code.blender.org/index.php/2011/09/bge-material-texface-changes
1 - Some of the legacy problems 2.49 and 2.5x has with the texface system:
==========================================================================
1.1) Shadow, Bilboard and Halo are mutual exclusive (in the code), yet you can
select a face to be more than one mode.
1.2) Sort only works for blend Alpha yet it's an option regardless of the
Transparency Blend you pick.
1.3) Shared doesn't affect anything in BGE.
1.4) ObColor only works for Text objects (old bitmap texts) when using Texture
Face Materials. (not address yet, I so far ignored obcolor)
2 - Notes:
============
2.1) Now "Use Face Textures" in material Option panel will work in Multitexture
even if there is no texture channel.
2.2) In FaceTexture mode it will use TexFace all the time, even if you don't
check the "Use Texture Face" option in the UI. It's a matter of decision, since
the code for either way is there. I decided by the solution that makes the
creation of a material fast - in this mode the user doesn't need to mess with
textures or this "Use Texture Face" option at all. I'm not strong in my opinion
here. But I think if we don't have this then what is the point of the Texture
Face mode?
2.3) I kept references for tface only when we need the image, UV or the tiling
setting. It should help later when/if we split the Image and UV layers from the
tface struct (Campbell and Brecht proposal).
3 - Changes in a Nutshell:
==========================
3.1) "Texture Face" panel (in the Mesh/Object Data panel) no longer exists. Those settings are all part of the material properties, visible when Game Render is set.
3.2) "Texture Face" Shading mode (in the Render panel) is now called “Single Texture”, it needs a material for special settings (e.g. Billboard, Alpha Sort, …).
3.3) New options in the Material Panel
* Shadeless option in the Material panel is now supported for all three Shading modes.
* Physics is now toggleable, this is the old Collision option.
* Two Side (on) is now called Back Culling (off).
* Alpha Sort is one of the Alpha options, together (and mutually exclusive) to Alpha Blend, Alpha Clip, Add and Opaque (i.e. solid).
* Shadow, Billboard and Halo are grouped in the “Face Orientation” property.
* "Face Textures" and "Face Textures Alpha" (under Options) can be used for all but GLSL shading mode (to be supported in GLSL eventually).
* The backend in the game engine is still the same as before. The only changes are in the interface and in the way you need to think your materials. The bottomline is: It’s no longer possible to share materials between faces that do not share the same game properties.
4 - Acknowledgment:
==================
Mike Pan for the design discussions, and testing along the whole development process.
Vitor Balbio for the first hands-on code with the interface changes. That helped me a lot to push me into work on that.
Benoit Bolsee and Brecht van Lommel for patch review (* no one reviewed the whole patch, or the latest iteractions, so I still hold liability for any problems).
Blender artists that gave feedback and helped testing the patch.

This patch adds:
* support for proxy building again (missing feature from Blender 2.49)
additionally to the way, Blender 2.49 worked, you can select several
strips at once and make Blender build proxies in the background (using
the job system)
Also a new thing: movie proxies are now build into AVI files, and
the proxy system is moved into ImBuf-library, so that other parts
of blender can also benefit from it.
* Timecode support: to fix seeking issues with files, that have
a) varying frame rates
b) very large GOP lengths
c) are broken inbetween
d) use different time code tracks
the proxy builder can now also build timecode indices, which are
used (optionally) for seeking.
For the first time, it is possible, to do frame exact seeking on
all file types.
* Support for different video-streams in one video file (can be
selected in sequencer, other parts of blender can also use it,
but UI has to be added accordingly)
* IMPORTANT: this patch *requires* ffmpeg 0.7 or newer, since
older versions don't support the pkt_pts field, that is essential
for building timecode indices.
Windows and Mac libs are already updated, Linux-users have to build
their own ffmpeg verions until distros keep up.

there was no way to know the frame that blender was attempting to read.
added a label for image sequence images showing the image file's frame, even when not able to load, this also gives realtime feedback to the user while dragging the frame offset/start/duration buttons about so they can better understand how these settings work.
|
|
- add BKE_write_ibuf_stamp() since saving environment maps & screen shots shouldn't have stamp.
|
|
|
|
|
|
check for alpha channel while saving images that have been painted onto.
It would be nicer to do this while in paint mode except this isn't so simple with project paint using multiple images at once.
|
|
flagged as PROP_THICK_WRAP.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
|
|
accessed by the UI at the moment, but could eventually be used for saving test-renders.
The main reason to have this is so renders can be scripted to write to a specific file without having to do annoying tricks like set a dummy start/end frame range, render an animation and work out the current frame image will be written to, then rename after rendering.
Also made some 'char *' args into 'const char *'
|
|
|
|
size rather then short.
also check if jpeg fails to allocate an imbuf.
|
|
- BKE_add_image_extension now sets the extension rather then appending. (no more image.jpg.tga)
- py/rna functions which have no return value now raise an error if a non-None value is returned.
- added back the red-alert flag so buttons can have a red highlight if somethings wrong.
|
|
turns out this isnt exactly a bug since support was never written for this but may as well support it.
now rna/py can do image.copy() too.

tile cache code in imbuf, but it is not hooked up to the render engine.
Imbuf module: some small refactoring and removing a lot of unused or old code
(about 6.5k lines).
* Added a ImFileType struct with callbacks to make adding an file format type,
or making changes to the API easier.
* Move imbuf init/exit code into IMB_init()/IMB_exit() functions.
* Increased mipmap levels from 10 to 20, you run into this limit already with
a 2k image.
* Removed hamx, amiga, anim5 format support.
* Removed colormap saving, only simple colormap code now for reading tga.
* Removed gen_dynlibtiff.py, editing this is almost as much work as just
editing the code directly.
* Functions removed that were only used for sequencer plugin API:
IMB_anim_nextpic, IMB_clever_double, IMB_antialias, IMB_gamwarp,
IMB_scalefieldImBuf, IMB_scalefastfieldImBuf, IMB_onethird, IMB_halflace,
IMB_dit0, IMB_dit2, IMB_cspace
* Write metadata info into OpenEXR images. Can be viewed with the command
line utility 'exrheader'
For the image tile cache code, see this page:

has a fix that hopefully solves the problem on mac/win. Also fixes #21322,
render slots not working well with FSA.

Added text to the patch and made other minor tweaks.
moved image generation functions into their own file.

size.
unrelated changes that ended up being more trouble to commit separate...
- removed BLI_split_dirfile(), was nasty, occasionaly modifying the source string, it could create directories and used the $CWD in some cases. was only used in 2 places in filesel.c, if this gives problems can address without bringing back this function.
renamed BLI_split_dirfile_basic --> BLI_split_dirfile
- view3d_operator_needs_opengl was being called for offscreen render when it wasnt needed.
|

filename functions should not be spesific to images.
rename BKE_get_image_export_path() to BKE_rebase_path() and take a filename arg rather then an image.
obj export file copy was also not working because of a missing import.
|
|
it myself, there will still be render slots just old implementation.
|
|
image code, this should be clearer and makes reusing the Render struct later
on easier.

Management on/off leads to Crash
Various internal fixes, also additional feature - can drag on the histogram to change scale
(0 key to reset).
Also fix [#20844] Color balance node (lift freeze)
|
|
do this on drawing instead since SCREEN_OT_animation_step isnt calling the notifier (assume this is to be more efficient?). this isnt slow so is ok to do on drawing.
rename BKE_image_user_calc_imanr to BKE_image_user_calc_frame
|
|
Now it's a bit more robust, tagging images with profiles when they're loaded,
which then get interpreted later on by conversion functions. Just Linear RGB
and sRGB profiles at the moment, same as before.
This commit fixes Martin's problem with EXRs and Multilayer images loading/
saving too dark, and it also makes the sequence editor work correctly with it too.
Also fixes:
[#19647] gamma correction with color management is reset when resetting Curve
[#19454] 2.5: Dither does not work when Color management is enabled
|

as PROP_THICK_WRAP does this.
- scene.render_data.frame_path(frame=num), returns the output path for rending images of video.
- scene.render_data.file_extension, readonly attribute, gives the extension ".jpg", ".mov" etc
- player support was guessing names, use the above functions to get the actual names used, accounting for #'s replacing numbers.

* Rendering twice or more could crash layer/pass buttons.
* Compositing would crash while drawing the image.
* Rendering animations could also crash drawing the image.
* Compositing could crash
* Starting to rendering while preview render / compo was
still running could crash.
* Exiting while rendering an animation would not abort the
renderer properly, making Blender seemingly freeze.
* Fixes theoretically possible issue with setting malloc
lock with nested threads.
* Drawing previews inside nodes could crash when those nodes
were being rendered at the same time.
There's more crashes, manipulating the scene data or undo can
still crash, this commit only focuses on making sure the image
buffer and render result access is thread safe.
Implementation:
* Rather than assuming the render result does not get freed
during render, which seems to be quite difficult to do given
that e.g. the compositor is allowed to change the size of
the buffer or output different passes, the render result is
now protected with a read/write mutex.
* The read/write mutex allows multiple readers (and pixel
writers) at the same time, but only allows one writer to
manipulate the data structure.
* Added BKE_image_acquire_ibuf/BKE_image_release_ibuf to access
images being rendered, cases where this is not needed (most
code) can still use BKE_image_get_ibuf.
* The job manager now allows only one rendering job at the same
time, rather than the G.rendering check which was not reliable.

function and only the OBJ exporter called this.
Converting to tri's on export isnt very important.
|
|
Added support in threaded compositor to copy the viewer
image safely away, prevents crashing especially for
people using blender -E or redrawing viewer while it
composites.
(Note; reloading images in nodes, render result, and
probably other cases have to be checked still)
|
|
- remove Verse support. This will be brought back in The Future (probably jiri + me)
This means 5k lines less in blenkernel.
- fix two small errors for global cleanup, now compiles properly with FFMPEG enabled too.
|
|
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.

metadata and optionally
draws into the
frame.
This patch includes some changes I made...
* use blenders bitmap fonts (rather then own fonts)
* select font size
* user interface layout changes
* Marker as another image stamp option
Also added some new API calls
BMF_GetFontHeight(font);
BMF_DrawStringBuf(...); - so we can draw text into an imbuf's image buffer.
get_frame_marker(frame) - get the last marker from the frame.
IMB_rectfill_area(...) - fill in an image buffer with a rectangle area of color.
TODO - draw stamp info in 3d view, at the moment it just displays in the animation.

Patch #6570.
This patch adds color and alpha selectors to Image -> "New..." dialog.
|
|
Please read:
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Imaging.834.0.html
Or in short:
- adding MultiLayer Image support
- recoded entire Image API
- better integration of movie/sequence Images
Was a whole load of work... went down for a week to do this. So, will need
a lot of testing! Will be in irc all evening.

- It saves a file with indicated type on each change, with number
appended denoting the current frame (like ANIM saving).
- Output filename button supports relative paths ("//")
- Shows optional preview image too
- For now, added a print on each file save as feedback
To make this option work nicely, changed the BKE_makepicstring() function
to have less globals inside, so it is more generic. Todo: allow amount of
digits in filenames to be set (to support files like tmp_123456.jpg)
|

Hurmf, then you bring back old backbuffer, and they want to have fields
work on that!
OK... here it is. Although using Compositor features will make this much
easier and advanced to control. :)
|
|
load the full images for the image previews
- new struct PreviewImage in DNA_image_types can in the future be moved to struct ID for storing previews for all types
|
|
- Compositor now frees memory of buffers internally used in groups
immediately. This wasn't part of the event-based cache anyway
- New option: "Free Texture Images" (in render Output panel). This
frees after each render of each scene all images and mipmaps as
used by textures. As reference it prints total amount of MB freed.
- Render stage 'creating speed vectors' had no ESC checking yet
- Made drawing scanline updates during render draw 1 scanline less...
dunno, still hunting for weird opengl crashes.
- 3D preview render didn't properly skip sequence or composit render.

A full detailed description of this will be done later... is several days
of work. Here's a summary:
Render:
- Full cleanup of render code, removing *all* globals and bad level calls
all over blender. Render module is now not called abusive anymore
- API-fied calls to rendering
- Full recode of internal render pipeline. Is now rendering tiles by
default, prepared for much smarter 'bucket' render later.
- Each thread now can render a full part
- Renders were tested with 4 threads, goes fine, apart from some lookup
tables in softshadow and AO still
- Rendering is prepared to do multiple layers and passes
- No single 32 bits trick in render code anymore, all 100% floats now.
Writing images/movies
- moved writing images to blender kernel (bye bye 'schrijfplaatje'!)
- made a new Movie handle system, also in kernel. This will enable much
easier use of movies in Blender
PreviewRender:
- Using new render API, previewrender (in buttons) now uses regular render
code to generate images.
- new datafile 'preview.blend.c' has the preview scenes in it
- previews get rendered in exact displayed size (1 pixel = 1 pixel)
3D Preview render
- new; press Pkey in 3d window, for a panel that continuously renders
(pkey is for games, i know... but we dont do that in orange now!)
- this render works nearly identical to buttons-preview render, so it stops
rendering on any event (mouse, keyboard, etc)
- on moving/scaling the panel, the render code doesn't recreate all geometry
- same for shifting/panning view
- all other operations (now) regenerate the full render database still.
- this is WIP... but big fun, especially for simple scenes!
Compositor
- Using same node system as now in use for shaders, you can composit images
- works pretty straightforward... needs much more options/tools and integration
with rendering still
- is not threaded yet, nor is so smart to only recalculate changes... will be
done soon!
- the "Render Result" node will get all layers/passes as output sockets
- The "Output" node renders to a builtin image, which you can view in the Image
window. (yes, output nodes to render-result, and to files, is on the list!)
The Bad News
- "Unified Render" is removed. It might come back in some stage, but this
system should be built from scratch. I can't really understand this code...
I expect it is not much needed, especially with advanced layer/passes
control
- Panorama render, Field render, Motion blur, is not coded yet... (I had to
recode every single feature in render, so...!)
- Lens Flare is also not back... needs total revision, might become composit
effect though (using zbuffer for visibility)
- Part render is gone! (well, thats obvious, its default now).
- The render window is only restored with limited functionality... I am going
to check first the option to render to a Image window, so Blender can become
a true single-window application. :)
For example, the 'Spare render buffer' (jkey) doesnt work.
- Render with border, now default creates a smaller image
- No zbuffers are written yet... on the todo!
- Scons files and MSVC will need work to get compiling again
OK... thats what I can quickly recall. Now go compiling!

a colored grid instead of a blank image, for quickly spotting distortion
in UV maps.
|
|
- Move UVTEXTTOOL variables into global Gip struct (like Gvp for
vertex paint). This will probably be moved into SpaceImage later,
so it is saved with the .blend file.
- Disable tool drawing. a better solution needs to be found.
- Panel button layout is still the same, this will change.
- Removed the NAN_TPT define, it has no use anymore.

This fixes the active object in place when orbiting the view.
Choppy 15fps demo can be seen there: http://www.elysiun.com/~theeth/bf/around_active.html
Image Memory Grabage Collection
This adds memory handling to the image code. An image is tagged each time it is used.
During a collection cycle (frequency of cycles is user defined), if an image is older
than a user defined limit, its buffer gets deallocated. This also applies to gl memory buffers.
Images that are loading in GL memory needs to go through two time outs before being fully deallocated: the first time out deallocated the gl memorry, the second the buffer in ram.
Notes:
Image buffer loaded from python gets tagged as permanent upon load. That tag is removed when python stops using the image.
I might have missed some tagging spots, especially in the rendering pipeline. Someone with more knowledge about this code should check to be careful.
Tagging is done on every access, for rendering, this will probably be a performance hit. A scheme should be developped to only tag when the rendering is completed.
Collecting is called in draw_object, most likely not the best place to do it.
Safe from undo, since using undo deallocates memory anyway (like when loading a blend file with one currently opened)
Userpref DNA changes:
I've changed a couple of flagging variables from short to int. Some because they needed more space, others to keep SDNA happy.
Info window changes:
I've grouped a couple of buttons in aligned blocks and changed the color of mutually exclusive options to make them clearer.
Matt didn't do any changes on that in tuhopuu, so hopefully I'm not stepping on anyone's feet with this.
Also changed double constants into floats with f in a couple of places (mostly space.c) to make compiler happier.
|
|
Caused by making threadsafe envmap render...
Commit in convertblenderscene.c is just replacing constant with define.
