This flag shouldn't be saved in .blend files but because of strange reason
some files contains this flags which leads to object disappearing when
disabling buffer shadow in material. Current trunk shouldn't be saving
this flag and most probably buggy files were saved in some intermediate
version of blender where this flag can be be saved.
This should fix remained issue in #29255: Object invisible and weird polygons appearance
In some cases solving can take a while (especially when refining is used)
and keeping interface locked is a bit annoying. Now camera solver is moved
to job system and interface isn't locking.
Reporting progress isn't really accurate, but trying to make it more linear
can lead to spending more effort on it than having benefit. Also, changing
status in the information line helps to understand that blender isn't hang
up and solving is till working nicely.
Main changes in code:
- libmv_solveReconstruction now accepts additional parameters:
* progress_update_callback - a function which is getting called
from solver algorithm to report progress back to Blender.
* callback_customdata - a user-defined context which is passing
to progress_update_callback so progress can be updated in needed
blender-side data structures.
This parameters are optional.
- Added structure MovieTrackingStats which is placed in MovieTracking
structure. It's supposed to be used for displaying information about
different operations (currently it's only camera solver, but can be
easily used for something else in the future) in clip editor.
This statistics structure is getting allocated for time operator is
working and not saving into .blend file.
- Clip Editor now displays statistics stored in MovieTrackingStats structure
like it's done for rendering.
This commit implements:
- Configurable settings for newly creating tracks
Now it's possible to set tracking algorithm and it's settings for
all newly creating tracks including manual tracks creation and
tracks creation by "Detect Features" operator.
- Moves margin, frames limit and adjust frame inside per-track
settings.
Was request from Francois for this.
- Adjust Frames replaced with menu called Pattern Match where it's
possible to choose between matching pattern from keyframe frame
or from previously tracked frame.
Didn't see somebody used adjust frames values differ from 0 and 1,
and this menu should make things more clear here/
by Gaia Clary.
Rationale: the name was confusing and not always used consistently, and this
map itself is not something that can be layered, rather the map can be used
as texture coordinates in some layered setup.
The original intent was to indicate this contained more than just UV's, but
the game engine settings have already been moved out, and apparently users
didn't really get this from the name anyway.
Warning!
Angles in nodes have just been moved to consistant Radians values (ANGLE subtype of RNA Float property). You will still see them as degrees in the GUI, though, unless you chose otherwise in Scene properties, Units panel.
Conversion from degrees to radians for old files is obviously done at loading time, but if you use a mixed pipeline of trunk and releases, be carefull!
Loading a 2.60.4 file (or higher) into any previous version of Blender, your angles in nodes will have odd values (well, radians interpreted as degrees)!
And if you save such file in a pre-2.60.4 version, the angle node values will be converted again when loaded in Blender 2.60.4 or higher...
This affects following nodes:
* Compo: Rotate, Defocus, ChromaMatte, Glare and DirectionalBlur
* Shader: Mapping
And all future code using the TexMapping struct’s rotation part (its rot memember is now in radians).
ColorMapping struct for color manipulation of textures. These will be the
standard built-in texture node options for manipulating the incoming texture
coordinate and outgoing color.
Spline IK and Auto-IK working together on the same bone chain could
crash due to the somewhat hacky way that they were sharing the same
list for the "iktree" forest. Resolved by doing what I should have
done from the beginning, and made Spline-IK save its ik chains off
into a separate list.
While this fixes the crash, it might be worth investigating outright
disabling this from working in this case, since it can be a bit
confusing to have it appear to not work.
===========================
Rest of changes from camera tracking gsoc project.
This commit includes:
- New compositor nodes:
* Movie Clip input node
* Movie Undistortion node
* Transformation node
* 2D stabilization node
- Slight changes in existing node to prevent code duplication
===========================
Commiting camera tracking integration gsoc project into trunk.
This commit includes:
- Bundled version of libmv library (with some changes against official repo,
re-sync with libmv repo a bit later)
- New datatype ID called MovieClip which is optimized to work with movie
clips (both of movie files and image sequences) and doing camera/motion
tracking operations.
- New editor called Clip Editor which is currently used for motion/tracking
stuff only, but which can be easily extended to work with masks too.
This editor supports:
* Loading movie files/image sequences
* Build proxies with different size for loaded movie clip, also supports
building undistorted proxies to increase speed of playback in
undistorted mode.
* Manual lens distortion mode calibration using grid and grease pencil
* Supervised 2D tracking using two different algorithms KLT and SAD.
* Basic algorithm for feature detection
* Camera motion solving. scene orientation
- New constraints to "link" scene objects with solved motions from clip:
* Follow Track (make object follow 2D motion of track with given name
or parent object to reconstructed 3D position of track)
* Camera Solver to make camera moving in the same way as reconstructed camera
This commit NOT includes changes from tomato branch:
- New nodes (they'll be commited as separated patch)
- Automatic image offset guessing for image input node and image editor
(need to do more tests and gather more feedback)
- Code cleanup in libmv-capi. It's not so critical cleanup, just increasing
readability and understanadability of code. Better to make this chaneg when
Keir will finish his current patch.
More details about this project can be found on this page:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/GSoC-2011
Further development of small features would be done in trunk, bigger/experimental
features would first be implemented in tomato branch.
incompatible, and unmaintainable Time Offset cruft.
- Slow Parenting lives another day (just), although it now carries
appropriate cautionary disclaimers. It's only really for the Game
Engine nowadays, as that's the only place where it can possibly work
with any reliability.
- "Animation Hacks" panel is now "Relations Extras". I could've merged
the two panels, though I figured these options weren't that frequently
used to justify taking up screen-space by default along with the panel
