Fix #33375: OSL geom:trianglevertices gave wrong coordinates for static BVH. Also some simple OSL optimization, passing thread data pointer directly instead of via thread local storage, and creating ustrings for attribute lookup.

Cycles: initial subsurface multiple scattering support. It's not working as well as I would like, but it works, just add a subsurface scattering node and you can use it like any other BSDF. It is using fully raytraced sampling compatible with progressive rendering and other more advanced rendering algorithms we might used in the future, and it uses no extra memory so it's suitable for complex scenes. Disadvantage is that it can be quite noisy and slow. Two limitations that will be solved are that it does not work with bump mapping yet, and that the falloff function used is a simple cubic function, it's not using the real BSSRDF falloff function yet. The node has a color input, along with a scattering radius for each RGB color channel along with an overall scale factor for the radii. There is also no GPU support yet, will test if I can get that working later.

Cycles Volume Render: support for rendering of homogeneous volume with absorption. This is the simplest possible volume rendering case, constant density inside the volume and no scattering or emission. My plan is to tweak, verify and commit more volume rendering effects one by one, doing it all at once makes it difficult to verify correctness and track down bugs. Documentation is here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume Currently this hooks into path tracing in 3 ways, which should get us pretty far until we add more advanced light sampling. These 3 hooks are repeated in the path tracing, branched path tracing and transparent shadow code: * Determine active volume shader at start of the path * Change active volume shader on transmission through a surface * Light attenuation over line segments between camera, surfaces and background This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles Volume Render: add support for overlapping volume objects. This works pretty much as you would expect, overlapping volume objects gives a more dense volume. What did change is that world volume shaders are now active everywhere, they are no longer excluded inside objects. This may not be desirable and we need to think of better control over this. In some cases you clearly want it to happen, for example if you are rendering a fire in a foggy environment. In other cases like the inside of a house you may not want any fog, but it doesn't seem possible in general for the renderer to automatically determine what is inside or outside of the house. This is implemented using a simple fixed size array of shader/object ID pairs, limited to max 15 overlapping objects. The closures from all shaders are put into a single closure array, exactly the same as if an add shader was used to combine them.

#include "kernel_shadow.h"
Cycles: volume light sampling * Volume multiple importace sampling support to combine equiangular and distance sampling, for both homogeneous and heterogeneous volumes. * Branched path "Sample All Direct Lights" and "Sample All Indirect Lights" now apply to volumes as well as surfaces. Implementation note: For simplicity this is all done with decoupled ray marching, the only case we do not use decoupled is for distance only sampling with one light sample. The homogeneous case should still compile on the GPU because it only requires fixed size storage, but the heterogeneous case will be trickier to get working.

Cycles Bake Expand Cycles to use the new baking API in Blender. It works on the selected object, and the panel can be accessed in the Render panel (similar to where it is for the Blender Internal). It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode. Remember to save your images after the baking is complete. Note: Bake currently only works in the CPU Note: This is not supported by Cycles standalone because a lot of the work is done in Blender as part of the operator only, not the engine (Cycles).

Cycles Volume Render: support for rendering of homogeneous volume with absorption. This is the simplest possible volume rendering case, constant density inside the volume and no scattering or emission. My plan is to tweak, verify and commit more volume rendering effects one by one, doing it all at once makes it difficult to verify correctness and track down bugs. Documentation is here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume Currently this hooks into path tracing in 3 ways, which should get us pretty far until we add more advanced light sampling. These 3 hooks are repeated in the path tracing, branched path tracing and transparent shadow code: * Determine active volume shader at start of the path * Change active volume shader on transmission through a surface * Light attenuation over line segments between camera, surfaces and background This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles Volume Render: heterogeneous (textured) volumes support. Volumes can now have textured colors and density. There is a Volume Sampling panel in the Render properties with these settings: * Step size: distance between volume shader samples when rendering the volume. Lower values give more accurate and detailed results but also increased render time. * Max steps: maximum number of steps through the volume before giving up, to protect from extremely long render times with big objects or small step sizes. This is much more compute intensive than homogeneous volume, so when you are not using a texture you should enable the Homogeneous Volume option in the material or world for faster rendering. One important missing feature is that Generated texture coordinates are not yet working in volumes, and they are the default coordinates for nearly all texture nodes. So until that works you need to plug in object texture coordinates or a world space position. This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles Volume Render: scattering support. This is done by adding a Volume Scatter node. In many cases you will want to add together a Volume Absorption and Volume Scatter node with the same color and density to get the expected results. This should work with branched path tracing, mixing closures, overlapping volumes, etc. However there's still various optimizations needed for sampling. The main missing thing from the volume branch is the equiangular sampling for homogeneous volumes. The heterogeneous scattering code was arranged such that we can use a single stratified random number for distance sampling, which gives less noise than pseudo random numbers for each step. For volumes where the color is textured there still seems to be something off, needs to be investigated.

So if you've got a pretty dense volume that's lit from far away then distance sampling is usually more efficient. If you've got a light inside or near the volume then equiangular sampling is better. If you have a combination of both, then the multiple importance sampling will be better.

2012-01-26 15:37:33 +00:00
#ifdef __BACKGROUND__
Cycles: merging features from tomato branch. === BVH build time optimizations === * BVH building was multithreaded. Not all building is multithreaded, packing and the initial bounding/splitting is still single threaded, but recursive splitting is, which was the main bottleneck. * Object splitting now uses binning rather than sorting of all elements, using code from the Embree raytracer from Intel. http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/embree-photo-realistic-ray-tracing-kernels/ * Other small changes to avoid allocations, pack memory more tightly, avoid some unnecessary operations, ... These optimizations do not work yet when Spatial Splits are enabled, for that more work is needed. There's also other optimizations still needed, in particular for the case of many low poly objects, the packing step and node memory allocation. BVH raytracing time should remain about the same, but BVH build time should be significantly reduced, test here show speedup of about 5x to 10x on a dual core and 5x to 25x on an 8-core machine, depending on the scene. === Threads === Centralized task scheduler for multithreading, which is basically the CPU device threading code wrapped into something reusable. Basic idea is that there is a single TaskScheduler that keeps a pool of threads, one for each core. Other places in the code can then create a TaskPool that they can drop Tasks in to be executed by the scheduler, and wait for them to complete or cancel them early. === Normal ==== Added a Normal output to the texture coordinate node. This currently gives the object space normal, which is the same under object animation. In the future this might become a "generated" normal so it's also stable for deforming objects, but for now it's already useful for non-deforming objects. === Render Layers === Per render layer Samples control, leaving it to 0 will use the common scene setting. Environment pass will now render environment even if film is set to transparent. Exclude Layers" added. Scene layers (all object that influence the render, directly or indirectly) are shared between all render layers. However sometimes it's useful to leave out some object influence for a particular render layer. That's what this option allows you to do. === Filter Glossy === When using a value higher than 0.0, this will blur glossy reflections after blurry bounces, to reduce noise at the cost of accuracy. 1.0 is a good starting value to tweak. Some light paths have a low probability of being found while contributing much light to the pixel. As a result these light paths will be found in some pixels and not in others, causing fireflies. An example of such a difficult path might be a small light that is causing a small specular highlight on a sharp glossy material, which we are seeing through a rough glossy material. With path tracing it is difficult to find the specular highlight, but if we increase the roughness on the material the highlight gets bigger and softer, and so easier to find. Often this blurring will be hardly noticeable, because we are seeing it through a blurry material anyway, but there are also cases where this will lead to a loss of detail in lighting.

Cycles Volume Render: add support for overlapping volume objects. This works pretty much as you would expect, overlapping volume objects gives a more dense volume. What did change is that world volume shaders are now active everywhere, they are no longer excluded inside objects. This may not be desirable and we need to think of better control over this. In some cases you clearly want it to happen, for example if you are rendering a fire in a foggy environment. In other cases like the inside of a house you may not want any fog, but it doesn't seem possible in general for the renderer to automatically determine what is inside or outside of the house. This is implemented using a simple fixed size array of shader/object ID pairs, limited to max 15 overlapping objects. The closures from all shaders are put into a single closure array, exactly the same as if an add shader was used to combine them.

So far one doesn't seem to be consistently better or worse than the other for the same number of samples but more testing is needed. The random number generator itself is slower than sobol for most number of samples, except 16, 64, 256, .. because they can be computed faster. This can probably be optimized, but we can do that when/if this actually turns out to be useful.

/* ambient occlusion */
Cycles: 4 new nodes. * Tangent: generate a tangent direction for anisotropic shading. Can be either radial around X/Y/Z axis, or from a UV map. The default tangent for the anisotropic BSDF and geometry node is now always radial Z, for UV tangent use this node now. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/More#Tangent * Normal Map: generate a perturbed normal from an RGB normal map image. This is usually chained with an Image Texture node in the color input, to specify the normal map image. For tangent space normal maps, the UV coordinates for the image must match, and the image texture should be set to Non-Color mode to give correct results. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/More#Normal_Map * Refraction BSDF: for best results this node should be considered as a building block and not be used on its own, but rather mixed with a glossy node using a fresnel type factor. Otherwise it will give quite dark results at the edges for glossy refraction. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Shaders#Refraction * Ambient Occlusion: controls the amount of AO a surface receives, rather than having just a global factor in the world. Note that this outputs a shader and not a color, that's for another time. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Shaders#Ambient_Occlusion

There's some code for actual camera/object motion blur raytracing but it's unfinished (it badly slows down the raytracing kernel even when the option is turned off), so that code it disabled still. Motion vector export from Blender tries to avoid computing derived meshes when the mesh does not have a deforming modifier, and it also won't store motion vectors for every vertex if only the object or camera is moving.

Cycles Bake Expand Cycles to use the new baking API in Blender. It works on the selected object, and the panel can be accessed in the Render panel (similar to where it is for the Blender Internal). It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode. Remember to save your images after the baking is complete. Note: Bake currently only works in the CPU Note: This is not supported by Cycles standalone because a lot of the work is done in Blender as part of the operator only, not the engine (Cycles).

Cycles: Option to Sample all Lights in the Branched Path integrator for indirect samples This adds a new option "Sample All Lights" to the Sampling panel in Cycles (Branched Path). When enabled, Cycles will sample all the lights in the scene for the indirect samples, instead of randomly picking one. This is already happening for direct samples, now you can optionally enable it for indirect. Example file and renders: Blend file: http://www.pasteall.org/blend/27411 Random: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=68033 All: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=68034 Sampling all lights is a bit slower, but there is less variance, so it should help in situations with many lights.

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

This is the simplest possible volume rendering case, constant density inside the volume and no scattering or emission. My plan is to tweak, verify and commit more volume rendering effects one by one, doing it all at once makes it difficult to verify correctness and track down bugs. Documentation is here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume Currently this hooks into path tracing in 3 ways, which should get us pretty far until we add more advanced light sampling. These 3 hooks are repeated in the path tracing, branched path tracing and transparent shadow code: * Determine active volume shader at start of the path * Change active volume shader on transmission through a surface * Light attenuation over line segments between camera, surfaces and background This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles: change __device and similar qualifiers to ccl_device in kernel code. This to avoids build conflicts with libc++ on FreeBSD, these __ prefixed values are reserved for compilers. I apologize to anyone who has patches or branches and has to go through the pain of merging this change, it may be easiest to do these same replacements in your code and then apply/merge the patch.

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

Cycles Volume Render: heterogeneous (textured) volumes support. Volumes can now have textured colors and density. There is a Volume Sampling panel in the Render properties with these settings: * Step size: distance between volume shader samples when rendering the volume. Lower values give more accurate and detailed results but also increased render time. * Max steps: maximum number of steps through the volume before giving up, to protect from extremely long render times with big objects or small step sizes. This is much more compute intensive than homogeneous volume, so when you are not using a texture you should enable the Homogeneous Volume option in the material or world for faster rendering. One important missing feature is that Generated texture coordinates are not yet working in volumes, and they are the default coordinates for nearly all texture nodes. So until that works you need to plug in object texture coordinates or a world space position. This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

This is usually chained with an Image Texture node in the color input, to specify the normal map image. For tangent space normal maps, the UV coordinates for the image must match, and the image texture should be set to Non-Color mode to give correct results. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/More#Normal_Map * Refraction BSDF: for best results this node should be considered as a building block and not be used on its own, but rather mixed with a glossy node using a fresnel type factor. Otherwise it will give quite dark results at the edges for glossy refraction. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Shaders#Refraction * Ambient Occlusion: controls the amount of AO a surface receives, rather than having just a global factor in the world.

It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode. Remember to save your images after the baking is complete.

Cycles: initial subsurface multiple scattering support. It's not working as well as I would like, but it works, just add a subsurface scattering node and you can use it like any other BSDF. It is using fully raytraced sampling compatible with progressive rendering and other more advanced rendering algorithms we might used in the future, and it uses no extra memory so it's suitable for complex scenes. Disadvantage is that it can be quite noisy and slow. Two limitations that will be solved are that it does not work with bump mapping yet, and that the falloff function used is a simple cubic function, it's not using the real BSSRDF falloff function yet. The node has a color input, along with a scattering radius for each RGB color channel along with an overall scale factor for the radii. There is also no GPU support yet, will test if I can get that working later.

Cycles: experimental correlated multi-jittered sampling pattern that can be used instead of sobol. So far one doesn't seem to be consistently better or worse than the other for the same number of samples but more testing is needed. The random number generator itself is slower than sobol for most number of samples, except 16, 64, 256, .. because they can be computed faster. This can probably be optimized, but we can do that when/if this actually turns out to be useful. Paper this implementation is based on: http://graphics.pixar.com/library/MultiJitteredSampling/ Also includes some refactoring of RNG code, fixing a Sobol correlation issue with the first BSDF and < 16 samples, skipping some unneeded RNG calls and using a simpler unit square to unit disk function.

Cycles Bake Expand Cycles to use the new baking API in Blender. It works on the selected object, and the panel can be accessed in the Render panel (similar to where it is for the Blender Internal). It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode. Remember to save your images after the baking is complete. Note: Bake currently only works in the CPU Note: This is not supported by Cycles standalone because a lot of the work is done in Blender as part of the operator only, not the engine (Cycles).

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

Cycles Volume Render: heterogeneous (textured) volumes support. Volumes can now have textured colors and density. There is a Volume Sampling panel in the Render properties with these settings: * Step size: distance between volume shader samples when rendering the volume. Lower values give more accurate and detailed results but also increased render time. * Max steps: maximum number of steps through the volume before giving up, to protect from extremely long render times with big objects or small step sizes. This is much more compute intensive than homogeneous volume, so when you are not using a texture you should enable the Homogeneous Volume option in the material or world for faster rendering. One important missing feature is that Generated texture coordinates are not yet working in volumes, and they are the default coordinates for nearly all texture nodes. So until that works you need to plug in object texture coordinates or a world space position. This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles Volume Render: scattering support. This is done by adding a Volume Scatter node. In many cases you will want to add together a Volume Absorption and Volume Scatter node with the same color and density to get the expected results. This should work with branched path tracing, mixing closures, overlapping volumes, etc. However there's still various optimizations needed for sampling. The main missing thing from the volume branch is the equiangular sampling for homogeneous volumes. The heterogeneous scattering code was arranged such that we can use a single stratified random number for distance sampling, which gives less noise than pseudo random numbers for each step. For volumes where the color is textured there still seems to be something off, needs to be investigated.

Cycles volume: change heterogeneous volume sampling in branched path first hit. This now uses decoupled ray marching, and removes the probalistic scattering. What this means is that each AA sample will be slower but contain less noise, hopefully giving less render time to reach the same noise levels. For those following along, there's still a bunch of volume sampling improvements to do: all-light sampling, multiple importance sampling, transmittance threshold, better indirect light handling, multiple scatter approximation.

Cycles Bake Expand Cycles to use the new baking API in Blender. It works on the selected object, and the panel can be accessed in the Render panel (similar to where it is for the Blender Internal). It bakes for the active texture of each material of the object. The active texture is currently defined as the active Image Texture node present in the material nodetree. If you don't want the baking to override an existent material, make sure the active Image Texture node is not connected to the nodetree. The active texture is also the texture shown in the viewport in the rendered mode. Remember to save your images after the baking is complete. Note: Bake currently only works in the CPU Note: This is not supported by Cycles standalone because a lot of the work is done in Blender as part of the operator only, not the engine (Cycles).

Cycles Volume Render: support for rendering of homogeneous volume with absorption. This is the simplest possible volume rendering case, constant density inside the volume and no scattering or emission. My plan is to tweak, verify and commit more volume rendering effects one by one, doing it all at once makes it difficult to verify correctness and track down bugs. Documentation is here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume Currently this hooks into path tracing in 3 ways, which should get us pretty far until we add more advanced light sampling. These 3 hooks are repeated in the path tracing, branched path tracing and transparent shadow code: * Determine active volume shader at start of the path * Change active volume shader on transmission through a surface * Light attenuation over line segments between camera, surfaces and background This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

Cycles Volume Render: add support for overlapping volume objects. This works pretty much as you would expect, overlapping volume objects gives a more dense volume. What did change is that world volume shaders are now active everywhere, they are no longer excluded inside objects. This may not be desirable and we need to think of better control over this. In some cases you clearly want it to happen, for example if you are rendering a fire in a foggy environment. In other cases like the inside of a house you may not want any fog, but it doesn't seem possible in general for the renderer to automatically determine what is inside or outside of the house. This is implemented using a simple fixed size array of shader/object ID pairs, limited to max 15 overlapping objects. The closures from all shaders are put into a single closure array, exactly the same as if an add shader was used to combine them.

Cycles: first step for implementation of non-progressive sampler that handles direct and indirect lighting differently. Rather than picking one light for each point on the path, it now loops over all lights for direct lighting. For indirect lighting it still picks a random light each time. It gives control over the number of AA samples, and the number of Diffuse, Glossy, Transmission, AO, Mesh Light, Background and Lamp samples for each AA sample. This helps tuning render performance/noise and tends to give less noise for renders dominated by direct lighting. This sampling mode only works on the CPU, and still needs proper tile rendering to show progress (will follow tommorrow or so), because each AA sample can be quite slow now and so the delay between each update wil be too long.

Cycles: experimental correlated multi-jittered sampling pattern that can be used instead of sobol. So far one doesn't seem to be consistently better or worse than the other for the same number of samples but more testing is needed. The random number generator itself is slower than sobol for most number of samples, except 16, 64, 256, .. because they can be computed faster. This can probably be optimized, but we can do that when/if this actually turns out to be useful. Paper this implementation is based on: http://graphics.pixar.com/library/MultiJitteredSampling/ Also includes some refactoring of RNG code, fixing a Sobol correlation issue with the first BSDF and < 16 samples, skipping some unneeded RNG calls and using a simpler unit square to unit disk function.

Cycles: initial subsurface multiple scattering support. It's not working as well as I would like, but it works, just add a subsurface scattering node and you can use it like any other BSDF. It is using fully raytraced sampling compatible with progressive rendering and other more advanced rendering algorithms we might used in the future, and it uses no extra memory so it's suitable for complex scenes. Disadvantage is that it can be quite noisy and slow. Two limitations that will be solved are that it does not work with bump mapping yet, and that the falloff function used is a simple cubic function, it's not using the real BSSRDF falloff function yet. The node has a color input, along with a scattering radius for each RGB color channel along with an overall scale factor for the radii. There is also no GPU support yet, will test if I can get that working later.

Cycles Volume Render: add support for overlapping volume objects. This works pretty much as you would expect, overlapping volume objects gives a more dense volume. What did change is that world volume shaders are now active everywhere, they are no longer excluded inside objects. This may not be desirable and we need to think of better control over this. In some cases you clearly want it to happen, for example if you are rendering a fire in a foggy environment. In other cases like the inside of a house you may not want any fog, but it doesn't seem possible in general for the renderer to automatically determine what is inside or outside of the house. This is implemented using a simple fixed size array of shader/object ID pairs, limited to max 15 overlapping objects. The closures from all shaders are put into a single closure array, exactly the same as if an add shader was used to combine them.

I tested with the BMW file on my Geforce 540M and the render times were the same for 100 samples (1.57 min in my case). This is part of my GSoC project, SVN merge of r59032 + manual merge of UI changes for this from my branch.

Cycles: support for motion vector and UV passes. Most of the changes are related to adding support for motion data throughout the code. There's some code for actual camera/object motion blur raytracing but it's unfinished (it badly slows down the raytracing kernel even when the option is turned off), so that code it disabled still. Motion vector export from Blender tries to avoid computing derived meshes when the mesh does not have a deforming modifier, and it also won't store motion vectors for every vertex if only the object or camera is moving.

Cycles: change __device and similar qualifiers to ccl_device in kernel code. This to avoids build conflicts with libc++ on FreeBSD, these __ prefixed values are reserved for compilers. I apologize to anyone who has patches or branches and has to go through the pain of merging this change, it may be easiest to do these same replacements in your code and then apply/merge the patch.

Fisheye Camera for Cycles For sample images see: http://www.dalaifelinto.com/?p=399 (equisolid) http://www.dalaifelinto.com/?p=389 (equidistant) The 'use_panorama' option is now part of a new Camera type: 'Panorama'. Created two other panorama cameras: - Equisolid: most of lens in the market simulate this lens - e.g. Nikon, Canon, ...) this works as a real lens up to an extent. The final result takes the sensor dimensions into account also. .:. to simulate a Nikon DX2S with a 10.5mm lens do: sensor: 23.7 x 15.7 fisheye lens: 10.5 fisheye fov: 180 render dimensions: 4288 x 2848 - Equidistant: this is not a real lens model. Although the old equidistant lens simulate this lens. The result is always as a circular fisheye that takes the whole sensor (in other words, it doesn't take the sensor into consideration). This is perfect for fulldomes ;) For the UI we have 10 to 360 as soft values and 10 to 3600 as hard values (because we can). Reference material: http://www.hdrlabs.com/tutorials/downloads_files/HDRI%20for%20CGI.pdf http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/technical/field_of_view.html Note, this is not a real simulation of the light path through the lens. The ideal solution would be this: https://graphics.stanford.edu/wikis/cs348b-11/Assignment3 http://www.graphics.stanford.edu/papers/camera/ Thanks Brecht for the fix, suggestions and code review. Kudos for the dome community for keeping me stimulated on the topic since 2009 ;) Patch partly implemented during lab time at VisGraf, IMPA - Rio de Janeiro.

Cycles Volume Render: support for rendering of homogeneous volume with absorption. This is the simplest possible volume rendering case, constant density inside the volume and no scattering or emission. My plan is to tweak, verify and commit more volume rendering effects one by one, doing it all at once makes it difficult to verify correctness and track down bugs. Documentation is here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Materials/Volume Currently this hooks into path tracing in 3 ways, which should get us pretty far until we add more advanced light sampling. These 3 hooks are repeated in the path tracing, branched path tracing and transparent shadow code: * Determine active volume shader at start of the path * Change active volume shader on transmission through a surface * Light attenuation over line segments between camera, surfaces and background This is work by "storm", Stuart Broadfoot, Thomas Dinges and myself.
