*added an operator to render from text editor 3 modes:
3dview, pov text only or both.
this property replaces the custompov code (with "both" option)
known problem is that some scenes get their rendered image passed to render results while others don't. Still useable for preview anyway.
*photon map save and load
*camera normal perturbation
*Depth Of Field focal point by object (from Blender native dof_object property)
*unchecked always sample from radiosity defaults
*some other interface tweaks
*fix: area_illumination syntax updated to fix bug in area lights
*fix:sphere sweep was buggy (bezier curve would'nt export)
*several curves in one blender object can now export Thanks Lanuhum
*fix:hair with no material slot would'nt export
*fixemodifier like subsurf or mirror over curves wouldn't export, now trying to convert to mesh
*fix:meshes with 0 vertices wrote a bad file, now create a dummy 0 radius sphere
*fix: export visible layer only was broken
*added a conversion of all image paths to forward slashes, preferred by POV, sending less warning.
*repaired basic handling of packed textures
*rearranged Material UI
*transmit value removed from ambient light to avoid parse warning
How do we generate a transparent background now ?
*name 'using_uberpov' was not defined in shading.py
added:
*moved exportPattern(texture) from render.py to shading.py
*moved texture influences from render.py to a function in shading.py
The tricky part here is that to read correctly df3 data, we need to have a unit box,
and can only transform it to match Blender's domain's bbox *after* df3 is read.
Added: Stochastic antialiasing for UberPOV
Added: Blurry Reflection for UberPOV
Improved: Defaults for AA and Depth of Field to a better quality/time
Improved: UV texture transforms more closely match BI and more functionalised
Improved: exportable hair amount
Hair exported only the view percentage, full amount gets exported now. allowing much higher counts than what could get displayed. also since the lowest count (0) is no longer divided by the view percentage it removes a "division by 0" error.
added: now vertex colors get written as a simple pigment per vertex anytime there is some vertex color layer regardless of the vertex color paint or vertex color light toggles.
*Commented out a property that was not yet implemented in exporter
*Added frame number export for hand made pov animation
Thanks to a patch made by Markku Myllymäki
*changed default values for the folowing properties to be more useful in most scenes:
- radio_low_error_factor
- fake_caustics_power
- importance_value
