- 1st stage: Linear Workflow This implements automatic linear workflow in Blender's renderer. With the new Colour Management option on in the Render buttons, all inputs to the renderer and compositor are converted to linear colour space before rendering, and gamma corrected afterwards. In essence, this makes all manual gamma correction with nodes, etc unnecessary, since it's done automatically through the pipeline. It's all explained much better in the notes/doc here, so please have a look: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/Blender/Architecture/Colour_Management And an example of the sort of difference it makes: http://mke3.net/blender/devel/rendering/b25_colormanagement_test01.jpg This also enables Colour Management in the default B.blend, and changes the default lamp falloff to inverse square, which is more correct, and much easier to use now it's all gamma corrected properly. Next step is to look into profiles/soft proofing for the compositor. Thanks to brecht for reviewing and fixing some oversights!
Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/community/get-involved Community: http://www.blender.org/Community Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender Documentation: http://www.blender.org/education-help Bug tracker: http://www.blender.org/development/report-a-bug Feature request tracker: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Requests
