This should give the overall direction to whom wants to finish it.
- Renamed EDIT mode engine to EDIT_MESH mode engine
- Introduce EDIT_ARMATURE mode engine
- Started to port legacy drawarmature.c to draw_armature.c
Basically DEG_OBJECT_ITER (or rather,
BKE_scene_layer_engine_settings_update) wasn't creating
Object->collection_settings data for invisible objects.
Now I'm removing those objects from the loop entirely. If we are to
bring them back we need to either create CollectionEngineSettings dat
from them or to skip them in DRW_mode_cache_populate.
Note: we are now merging all the collection engines (mode and render), which eventually may get slow. But as stated before, this is to expose the functionality, while waiting for proper depsgraph integrated solution.
Every time:
* A collection settings is set
* A collection visibility changes
* An object is added/removed/ ...
We need to recalculate the "accumulated" CollectionEngineSettings that
the render engine should use for an object.
This is to be handled by the depsgraph. Meanwhile this code should allow
us to start using those settings in the render engines.
Note: We are storing this in the objects, which means we can only have
one active calculated option every time.
This is intended to get the conversation with the Depsgraph department
going.
Initial work by Clément Foucault with contributions from Dalai Felinto
(mainly per-collection engine settings logic, and depsgraph iterator placeholder).
This makes Blender require OpenGL 3.3. Which means Intel graphic card
and OSX will break. Disable CLAY_ENGINE in CMake in those cases.
This is a prototype render engine intended to help the design of real
render engines. This is mainly an engine with enphasis in matcap and
ambient occlusion.
Implemented Features
--------------------
* Clay Render Engine, following the new API, to be used as reference for
future engines
* A more complete Matcap customization with more options
* Per-Collection render engine settings
* New Ground Truth AO - not enabled
Missing Features
----------------
* Finish object edit mode
- Fix shaders to use new matrix
- Fix artifacts when edge does off screen
- Fix depth issue
- Selection sillhouette
- Mesh wires
- Use mesh normals (for higher quality matcap)
- Non-Mesh objects drawing
- Widget drawing
- Performance issues
* Finish mesh edit mode
- Derived-Mesh-less edit mode API (mesh_rende.c)
* General edit mode
- Per-collection edit mode settings
* General engines
- Per-collection engine settings
(they are their, but they still need to be flushed by depsgraph, and
used by the drawing code)
