801aaf5cdc Fix exposure being applied to cycles AO pass. 2012-04-19 15:00:54 +00:00

e12adeb8c9 Fix #30551: cycles passes combining did not always give identical result combined
with antialiasing/defocus, now divide out color at the very end instead of for each
sample.

755f018324 Cycles: shadow pass support. Note that this only takes into account lamps,
emitting objects or world lighting do not contribute to the shadow pass.

Consider this more as a pass useful for some compositing tricks, unlike
other lighting passes this pass can't be used to exactly reconstruct the
combined pass.

8a76aa2e47 Cycles: fix AO pass not rendering with AO enabled for world, and make mask
layers work more like blender internal.

f99343d3b8 Cycles: Render Passes
Currently supported passes:
* Combined, Z, Normal, Object Index, Material Index, Emission, Environment,
  Diffuse/Glossy/Transmission x Direct/Indirect/Color

Not supported yet:
* UV, Vector, Mist

Only enabled for CPU devices at the moment, will do GPU tweaks tommorrow,
also for environment importance sampling.

bae896691a Cycles:
* 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.

da376e0237 Cycles render engine, initial commit. This is the engine itself, blender modifications and build instructions will follow later.
Cycles uses code from some great open source projects, many thanks them:

* BVH building and traversal code from NVidia's "Understanding the Efficiency of Ray Traversal on GPUs":
http://code.google.com/p/understanding-the-efficiency-of-ray-traversal-on-gpus/
* Open Shading Language for a large part of the shading system:
http://code.google.com/p/openshadinglanguage/
* Blender for procedural textures and a few other nodes.
* Approximate Catmull Clark subdivision from NVidia Mesh tools:
http://code.google.com/p/nvidia-mesh-tools/
* Sobol direction vectors from:
http://web.maths.unsw.edu.au/~fkuo/sobol/
* Film response functions from:
