Remove support for loading interlaced image sequences because
its less common now to record interlaced video,
the option to de-interlace video on load remains.
This separate probe rendering from viewport rendering, making possible to
run the baking in another thread (non blocking and faster).
The baked lighting is saved in the blend file. Nothing needs to be
recomputed on load.
There is a few missing bits / bugs:
- Cache cannot be saved to disk as a separate file, it is saved in the DNA
for now making file larger and memory usage higher.
- Auto update only cubemaps does update the grids (bug).
- Probes cannot be updated individually (considered as dynamic).
- Light Cache cannot be (re)generated during render.
- Texture creation now requires explicit data type.
- GPU_texture_add_mipmap enable explicit mipmap upload.
- GPU_texture_get_mipmap_size can be used to get the size of a mipmap level
of an existing GPUTexture
- GPU_texture_read let you read back data from a gpu texture.
The approach of setting 'refresh' flags on the modifier, and performing
the associated actions when the modifier is being evaluated, is a bad
one. Instead, we use the separation of the original and the evaluated
copy to 'refresh' certain things (because they simply aren't set at all
on the original). Other actions are now done directly with BKE_ocean_xxx
functions on the original data, intead of during evaluation.
Now we light with just a user defined HDRI by default, which is useful
for material setup and texture painting and lighting without having to
set up any scene lights.
Previously it would use the scene world without lights by default, which
in some files is just black.
This makes it possible to have a single shading nodetree that contains
separate Cycles and Eevee shaders. By default the target is set to All
so shaders are shared.
Will help entering sculpt mode on file load by making it possible
to fully initialize sculpt session. The goal is to make sure PBVH
exists since the very beginning of file open (missing PBVH is a
reason why object is not visible before first stroke).
This is not enough yet to fully solve the issue, since entering
sculpt mode tags object for Copy-on-Write update, which frees
PBVH.
It was a bit odd that the scene was stored per window but not the view
layer. The reasoning was that you would use different view layers for
different tasks. This is still possible, but it's more predictable to
switch them both explicitly, and with child window support manually
syncing the view layers between multiple windows is no longer needed
as often.
* Main windows show a topbar and statusbar, and select a workspace and
scene. They are created with Window > New Main Window.
* Child windows do not show a topbar or statusbar. These follow the
workspace and scene of their parent main window. Created with Window >
New Window or View > Duplicate Area into New Window.
* The purpose of this change is to support multi monitor setups where you
just want to put more editors on the other monitors. Without multiple
topbars and statusbars, working within a single workspace and scene.
Creating multiple main windows is intended to be a concious choice to
do different tasks in different workspaces and scenes.
* Note these changes do not currently affect how the operating system
treats the windows.
* When changing the workspace, the layout in all child windows changes.
This makes sense if we consider child windows to be just a way to
extend the main window across more monitors. In some case it may be
useful to keep the same layout though, we can add an option for this
depending on user feedback.
This is the same approach as 98a0bcd425
applied to soft body simulation. In short, CoW copies share the point cache,
and treat it as read-only except when the depsgraph is active.
This prevents having to wrap each call to sbFree() in an if(ob->soft)
condition and assign ob->soft = NULL after calling.
Furthermore, passing `Object *` allows us to change freeing behaviour
depending on whether the object is an evaluated copy or an original (not
done in this commit yet).
This unifies two almost-identical functions at the expense of having to
add one single 'flag' value at one call.
This makes copy_softbody() aware of the source/dest objects, allowing it
to make a distinction between doing depsgraph evaluation copies and real
object copies. This will be used in an upcoming commit to ensure that
the pointcache is shared between CoW copies, similar to the current
approach for rigidbody simulation.
Operators ignored edges along the screen-layout bounds. They should've ignored
those along window bounds instead.
Although the global areas can not be joined/split, the adjacent areas can. So
the menu should still be shown.
Had to change the return value of area joining operator, so that an error report
can show up when trying to join over a global area edge. Think this is fine to
do, but you never know with such stuff.
Preferably we'd gray out the "Join Area" item in the menu when clicking on the
edge of a global area. Unfotunately the operator uses coordinates passed as
operator properties to find the right edge/areas, which we cannot access from
the poll callback.
Added a compile directive in order to test SH4 in stead of SH2Win.
For now I disabled SH4, it is a bit more clear, but has a small
performance impact. Will check later for a better approach
There is now a manual refresh button on the panel to update the list
of objects in case it changes, and it also gets refreshed when changing
the collection or toggling the use count option.
This is a bit more manual but the previous code of refreshing the
list while evaluating the depsgraph was unreliable.
This also fixes it to take properly take into account visibility, and
to work with linked collections for which index writing was missing.
