lower than 1.3, since we're not officially supporting these. We're already not
providing CUDA binaries for these, so better make it clear when compiling from
source too.
* Passes renamed to samples
* Camera lens radius renamed to aperature size/blades/rotation
* Glass and fresnel nodes input is now index of refraction
* Glossy and velvet fresnel socket removed
* Mix/add closure node renamed to mix/add shader node
* Blend weight node added for shader mixing weights
There is some version patching code for reading existing files, but it's not
perfect, so shaders may work a bit different.
* Fix missing update when editing objects with emission materials.
* Fix preview pass rendering set to 1 not showing full resolution.
* Fix CUDA runtime compiling failing due to missing cache directory.
* Use settings from first render layer for visibility and material override.
And a bunch of incomplete and still disabled code mostly related to closure
sampling.
* OpenCL now only uses GPU/Accelerator devices, it's only confusing if CPU
device is used, easy to enable in the code for debugging.
* OpenCL kernel binaries are now cached for faster startup after the first
time compiling.
* CUDA kernels can now be compiled and cached at runtime if the CUDA toolkit
is installed. This means that even if the build does not have CUDA enabled,
it's still possible to use it as long as you install the toolkit.
* Compute MD5 hash to deal with nvidia opencl compiler cache not recognizing
changes in #included files, makes it possible to do kernel compile only
once and remember it for the next time blender is started.
* Kernel tweak to compile with ATI/linux. Enabling any more functionality than
simple clay render still chokes the compiler though, without a specific error
message ..
* Add alpha pass output, to use set Transparent option in Film panel.
* Add Holdout closure (OSL terminology), this is like the Sky option in the
internal renderer, objects with this closure show the background / zero
alpha.
* Add option to use Gaussian instead of Box pixel filter in the UI.
* Remove camera response curves for now, they don't really belong here in
the pipeline, should be moved to compositor.
* Output full float values for rendering now, previously was only byte precision.
* Add a patch from Thomas to get a preview passes option, but still disabled
because it isn't quite working right yet.
* CUDA: don't compile shader graph evaluation inline.
* Convert tabs to spaces in python files.
* auto/fixed threads option is used now, patch by Thomas.
* remove unused CUDA_LIBRARIES, library is dynamically loaded
* fix mesh XML export operator for API update
