give results that were either too weak or too strong, this makes it give more
predictable results. The downside is that it breaks backwards compatibility but
the previous behavior was almost broken.
the Bump node has a Normal input, so you can chain it after a Normal Map node.
Note that normal mapping always has to be done first because it is tied to the
particular mesh surface and tangents.
well as I would like, but it works, just add a subsurface scattering node and
you can use it like any other BSDF.
It is using fully raytraced sampling compatible with progressive rendering
and other more advanced rendering algorithms we might used in the future, and
it uses no extra memory so it's suitable for complex scenes.
Disadvantage is that it can be quite noisy and slow. Two limitations that will
be solved are that it does not work with bump mapping yet, and that the falloff
function used is a simple cubic function, it's not using the real BSSRDF
falloff function yet.
The node has a color input, along with a scattering radius for each RGB color
channel along with an overall scale factor for the radii.
There is also no GPU support yet, will test if I can get that working later.

should be no functional changes yet. UV, tangent and intercept are now stored
as attributes, with the intention to add more like multiple uv's, vertex
colors, generated coordinates and motion vectors later.
Things got a bit messy due to having both triangle and curve data in the same
mesh data structure, which also gives us two sets of attributes. This will get
cleaned up when we split the mesh class.
a size parameter between 0.0 and 1.0 that gives a angle of reflection between
0° and 90°, and a smooth parameter that gives and angle over which a smooth
transition from full to no reflection happens.
These work with global illumination and do importance sampling of the area within
the angle. Note that unlike most other BSDF's these are not energy conserving in
general, in particular if their weight is 1.0 and size > 2/3 (or 60°) they will
add more energy in each bounce.

not properly optimized out in some cases.
For reference, setting this will give detailed information about OSL shaders:
export OSL_OPTIONS="statistics:level=1,debug=1,llvm_debug=1"
* Simplify default color values, where each component was the same.
* Initialize closures as Null Closure, rather than assigning an existing closure, gets overwritten anyways.
Previously the OSL Mix shader node was clamping the 2nd color component (green) to the 3rd color component (blue). Now every component is clamped on its own.
OSL noise() function is generating NaN's in certain cases, fix for that goes to our
OSL branch.
Also add missing minimum weight and max closure checks to OSL, forgot to add these
when fixing another bug.
Initial support of OSL builds using SCons build system. Only tested on Linux now.
No changes to configuration files themselves -- for now check how it's configured
for linux buildbot (it was already horror to make all this changes and verify them,
changes to linux-config.py could easily be done later).
Currently WITH_BF_STATICOSL and WITH_BF_STATICLLVM are more like rudiments because
linking against oslexec requires special trick with --whole-archive. We woul either
need to find a way dealing with this oslexec less hackish or drop STATICOSL and
STATICLLVM flags. Will keep dropping this flags for until we have "final" build
rules for OSL.
Still can not make 32bit linux rendering with OSL -- blender simply crashes when
starting rendering. So for time being this issues are solving disabled OSL for
32bit build slaves.
