Materials are exported the best we can do by now. It will look almost as in
blender except for the missing procedural textures and some minor issues.
You have to tweak normal modulation amount to get the desired result cause
is not the same in yafray.
We added a panel in render space to adjust some yafray settings (GI and so)
Also we export transparency and reflection using new raytracing settings,
but that will be changed and improved soon.
Remember that you have to set YFexport path in user defaults and yafray must
be on path (version 0.0.6)
We added the "yafray" button to activate all this stuff in the render window.
Panel and settings are only shown when checked.
So now when activated the code calls yafray export instead of the internal
renderer and finally the resulting image is loaded back into render window's
buffer. So animation is also possible and results can be saved using blender
usual scheme.
You'll need SCons (www.scons.org) to build.
Platforms currently working:
* Linux (me)
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- uses the system libs and include files for building - no option to build
with the precompiled libraries yet.
* Windows (jesterKing)
- builds with quicktime (optional)
- builds with openal (optional)
- builds with international support (optional)
- Use the DOS box to build
- builds with precompiled libraries
* Irix (Hos)
- Uses default Irix compiler
- Not all optimization levels correct yet
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- builds with precompiled libraries
* Cygwin (me)
- has a problem in the linking stage
- uses free build tools (gcc)
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- uses the system libs and include files for building - no option to build
with the precompiled libraries yet.
* MacOS (sgefant)
- builds with quicktime (optional)
- options for openal and international disabled
- builds a nice bundle
- builds with precompiled libraries
Thanks to IanWill for a bugfix in the Linux build.
Note: This is a work in progress. A lot still has to be done - for example the
optional parts are only to be enabled by directly setting 'true' or
'false' in the SConstruct file. This needs to be moved to a user config
file. Also, the .o/.obj files are stored in the source tree. This needs
to be fixed as well.
The game engine is not yet built.
*Fixed boolean buglet in the bsp lib. I have not committed any libraries so you'll
have to do this to see the changes in blender.
*Got the bsp test program working again with the new GHOST createWindow
interface.
*(Visual C++) Modfied some of the dsp in the intern library to NOT prompt when
overwirting old libs and header files. This is the /Y option after XCOPY
Cheers
Laurence.
I took out the following from the includes in the intern dir that still had
it:
-#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
-#include <config.h>
-#endif

This saves other OSX developers the trouble of manually running ranlib.
This is not a good solution (because I don't know the correct one) but it works.
