This is a physically-based, easy-to-use shader for rendering hair and fur,
with controls for melanin, roughness and randomization.
Based on the paper "A Practical and Controllable Hair and Fur Model for
Production Path Tracing".
Implemented by Leonardo E. Segovia and Lukas Stockner, part of Google
Summer of Code 2018.
This patch adds a new matte node that implements the Cryptomatte specification.
It also incluces a custom eye dropper that works outside of a color picker.
Cryptomatte export for the Cycles render engine will be in a separate patch.

This is intended for quick renders for previsualization, animation previews
or sequencer previews. It provides the same settings as found in the 3D view
Shading popover in solid display mode, but in the scene render properties.
The "Workbench" engine was removed, and this name no longer appears in the
user interface, it's purely an internal name. We might come up with a better
name for this OpenGL engine still, but it's good to be consistent with the
OpenGL Render operator name since this has a similar purpose.
Main goal is to make API simpler to follow (at least ion terms what
is defined/declared where, as opposite of handful big headers which
includes all the declarations), and also avoid a big set of long and
obscure functions.
Now C-API files are split into smaller ones, following OpenSubdiv
behavior more closely, and also function pointers in structures
used a lot more, which shortens functions names,
UV integration part in GL Mesh is mainly stripped away, it needs
to be done differently. On a related topic, UV coordinates API in
converter needs to be removed as well, we do not need coordinates,
only island connectivity information there.
Additional changes:
- Varying interpolation in evaluator API are temporarily disabled,
need to extend API somewhere (probably, evaluator's API) to inform
layout information of vertex data (whether it contains varying
data, width, stride and such).
- Evaluator now can interpolate face-varying data.
Only works for adaptive refiner, since some issues in OpenSubdiv
itself.
Planned changes:
- Remove uv coordinates from TopologyConverter.
- Support evaluation of patches (as opposite to individual coordinates
as it happens currently).
- Support more flexible layout of varying and face-varying data.
It is stupid to assume varying is 3 floats and face-varying 2 floats.
- Support of second order derivatives.
- Everything else what i'm missing in this list.
- Made OpenSubdiv_GLMesh private
Previously, it was still accessible via C-API from C++ code.
- Don't implicitly refine evaluator when updating coarse positions,
now there is an explicit call to do this.
Allows to first apply all changes to the coarse mesh and then
refine once.
- Added coarse positions update from a continuous buffer with given
starts offset and stride.
Allows to update coarse positions directly from MVert array.
- Refiner is no longer freed when CPU evaluator is created.
Allows to re-use refiner for multiple purposes.
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.
