made xparts and yparts consistent in the different places it can be set now python and the buttons are max 64 (was 512 in some python locations) and xparts is max 512 (was max 64 in some python locations), also made the minimum xparts and yparts 1 again. Ed Halley suggests that we should up the max xparts to 1024 (instead of the current 512) for 'smoother panoramas'
list of recent opened file is written to .Blog file, when it is necessary,
list shouldn't hide now, ... I don't want to rewrite code after intrr
anymore ;-)
The mouse handling code for selecting/deselecting face/edge loops and edge
rings was causing single edges to be selected in face mode when face loop
select failed.
Bug in buttons_editing.c meant that edge subdivide code was getting called
with wrong arguments when accessed via the edit buttons, but was called
correctly from wkey menu.
Also added Alexander's small fix so that beauty subdivide behaves correctly
when used on non-proportionally scaled objects.
Each report was about a different failure with Particles, all related to
weak handling of animation systems and the depsgraph.
Fix has 2 parts; depsgraph now signals "object recalc" to be for time
changes; this then is used to bypass particle-building (since that's baked).
Other part is better object caching while makig particles.
Changing render settings with python while Anim render now updates display
for each frame. So you can animate render borders, or even save different
sized images.
Second pass at sceneRender.c / Scene.Render API clean-up. Most of the remaining clean-up needs to wait for the API refactor, since the "good" attribute names are already used by methods.
Blender has Open recent submenu in main File menu, Open recent should
work correctly now, I remove Reopen last item (I hope, that I didn't
break anything), because it seems obsolete now
Old annoyance in Blender; zooming in very far makes scaling/rotate
around invisible pivot going bezerk. The easy fix was just enforcing
floats in integer math.
it keeps storing a previous buffer for as long you don't render showing
this previous buffer.
If you render showing the previous buffer, it stores the current render.
To make this more clear, the window title shows "previous" when it shows
the stored copy.
Added code to make 'Collapse Edges' handle UV's intelligently. This seems to work in just about every case that I can test, so it's turned on by default.
Also completely removed the 'collapse faces' command and code. I'm not sure what I was thinking with this in the first place since edge collapse does the same job while in in face mode. Because of this there is now just one single command that covers both situations called 'Collapse' which uses the edge collapse code.
to take over now, but I'm available for help. Main notes for completing:
- Yafray module uses old global R all over... is now a pointer handle.
It can be temporally bypassed by straight copying, which I do now.
- I am not sure in what pixel format Yafray renders... Blender now only
uses float buffers. In the code, marked with XXX I've added the
rudimentary code for retrieving buffers.
- This integration will skip compositing when Yafray render is used.
- Shaded drawmode is back (shift+z).
Note it still only uses orco texture; but lighting/shading is using
the internal render module entirely.
- "Make Sticky" option back.
(Also fix in sticky texture render, was wrong scaled)
This commit brings back:
- Field Render
- MBlur Render (old style)
- Border render with or without cropping
Note: Field Render is not supported in Compositor yet. Blurring or filter
will destroy field information.
Both MotionBlur as Field render are done before Compositing happens.
Fixes:
- The "Save Buffers" option only worked on single frame renders, not for
Anim render.
- Found an un-initalized variable in Render initialize... this might have
caused the unknown random crashes with render.
Code restructure:
Cleaned up names and calls throughout the pipeline, more clearly telling
what goes on in functions.
This is visible in the updated first image of the Wiki doc:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/RenderPipeline
[ #4228 ] Blender.Image.Load(filename) loads only on the first loading
- Image.Load() will now reload the image buffer when a image of the same name is loaded again
- small textual change in render code
- save_rendered_image_cb_real has a popup window embedded in it that prevents automation through python as a result python scripts would get a popup which is ignorned by the script
- modified so python scripts overwrite the image by default
- added documentation to Render - saveRenderedImage has an option to save the zbuffer along with the image
(off by default)
- fixed a really annoying runtime error of uninitialized data being passed to a method in pipeline.c during a render
Fulfilling a very old feature request: a new Mesh Primitives module is
introduced, which gives script writers access to the Blender mesh datablocks
created from the "Add->Mesh" menu. You can now do this:
from Blender import *
me = Mesh.Primitives.UVsphere(10,20,3) # 10 segments, 20 rings, diameter 3
ob = Object.New('Mesh','mySphere')
ob.link(me)
sc = Scene.GetCurrent()
sc.link(ob)
