Brecht Van Lommel	67030aaf84	Cycles: optimizations for instances in scene updates before render starts, ... should load a non-trivial mesh instanced many times quite a bit faster now.	2011-09-02 16:15:18 +00:00
Brecht Van Lommel	df625253ac	Cycles: ... * Add max diffuse/glossy/transmission bounces * Add separate min/max for transparent depth * Updated/added some presets that use these options * Add ray visibility options for objects, to hide them from camera/diffuse/glossy/transmission/shadow rays * Is singular ray output for light path node Details here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Render/Cycles/LightPaths	2011-09-01 15:53:36 +00:00
Ton Roosendaal	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: http://www.cs.columbia.edu/CAVE/software/softlib/dorf.php	2011-04-27 11:58:34 +00:00
