[Bf-committers] Blender irc meeting minutes, 6 may 2012
Hi everyone, 1) Blender 2.63a - Meeting agreed on doing an a release with some bug fixes. Campbell and Brecht made a list of fixes that should be included, further discussion will be done on the mailing list. http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.63/Bug_Fixes#Fixes_since_2.63_.28for_bugfix_release.29 - Release of 2.63a will be middle of this week (Wednesday?) 2) Current projects - Keir is working on some tracker improvements in libmv: -- Integration of Ceres: http://procrastineering.blogspot.de/2012/05/today-sameer-agarwal-and-keir-mierle-as.html -- Planar tracker - Campbell mentions customdata layers are wrapped now (MTexPoly was missing from release) (Python API) - Brecht is working on OpenImageIO image cache usage to load more image text ures than fit in memory (cpu only). He is also working on a light falloff node: that is a control for light falloff like blender internal has, constant/linear/quadratic, and an option to soften light near the light source. - Pablo Vazquez will prepare a nice list with some new defaults for Blender, based on community feedback. -Jeroen Bakker reports the current status of the tile branch: http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2012-May/036647.html Will probably be merged to trunk within the next 1-2 weeks. 3) Google Summer of Code - All students should have been in contact with their mentors. - Students should start a thread on blenderartists.org to collect feedback and introduce themselves to the community. :) Best regards, Thomas -- Thomas Dinges Blender Developer, Artist and Musician www.dingto.org ___ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers

I believe your modifier is more similar to the Freestyle render engine project: http://freestyleintegration.wordpress.com/ I believe Howard's modifier is meant as a way to generate geometry along existing edges and vertices as though it were wire frame.

Hi Nicholas, Yes. Freestyle has the similar purpose to my modifier's. However, their approach are very different and thus they have different pros/cons. For example, my modifier has better consistency with fog, DoF and transparency, Freestyle can generate more flexible style lines such as handwritten-like (My modifier will be able to control the line properties with the vertex weight values, but less flexible than Freestyle.)

Hi all Here's a summary of topics: 1) Blender 2.57 release: - One more crash was detected in Blender 2.57a release (crash when using Enter in menus which load file). - There was no final decision about update release, but everybody agreed it's annoying bug and it would be cool to get updated official release builds. - Sculpting on non-locked keys was commited by Sergey. Also, he wanetd to mention that sculpting on constructive modifiers isn't disabled forever and returning of this option with better implementation is already in his TODO list. 2) Other projects - Lukas Toenne is working under cleaning up his particles-2010 branch. He mentioned that core changes he made to the node system would be very beneficial. 3) Google Summer of Code - Official announcement of accepted students would be tomorrow, April 25 19:00 UTC. -- With best regards, Sergey I.

Re: [Bf-committers] Blender IRC meeting, sunday 24 april 2011
Just want to point out that i only want to merge the parts of the branch that improve the core node system. The new node tree types i made for modifiers and particles will be stripped for this purpose, they are not really usable yet. The remaining changes are mostly related to code maintainability (and they're quite a lot!). This will come in handy for all the different new node-based projects (opencl compositor, 'cycles' shader system). I will make a blog post or wiki page before handing this over to review.

[Bf-committers] Blender IRC meeting, sunday 17 april 2011
Hi all Here's a summary of topics: 1) Blender 2.57 release - At least two show-stoppers sneaked in the release. One that messed up partial sculpting display and a crash on entering 3d text editing. - Meeting agrees on doing a 2.57a update release. Both Campbell and Ton will do extensive tracker hunting this monday already. But better be safe than sorry: call for final release can wait until wednesday or thursday. Status will be checked extensively in IRC and on this list. - This also means we like everyone to check the tracker carefully, and only commit totally safe fixes! - Doing even better RC testing was also discussed. The regression files on blender.org would have revealed the issues in release... ideas or suggestions to organize this better are welcome! Ton's preference would be to find 5-6 artists available for an extensive test and approve releases before we publish them. It's a boring but rewarding job :) Contact Ton in IRC or here for it? http://download.blender.org/demo/test/test257.zip - Ton contacted the splash committee (Thomas Dinges, Sergey Sharybin, Lukas Toenne) if they could spend review time whether to pick another splash for the update. This we didn't do before, nor do we want to dispute their authority! Thomas confirmed they'll look into it. - FMX show (www.fmx.de) will be in about 2 weeks! Ton, Thomas and several artists will be demoing on a booth there for 4 days. 2) Other projects todos - Discussion on default keymap convention ongoing on the list. Needs a good proposal to solve in 2.58, which could probably be to have a small standard set of maps to match keyboard layouts, laptops or other 3d programs. Needs further investigation code work (also for add-ons). - Intel graphics card problems: Sergey mentions that older Intel drivers (2006!) don't support 'shared OpenGL context' and will crash current svn. Meeting agrees it's acceptable for users to be required to update to stable/current drivers from vendors. - Tom Musgrove made a wiki page for branch developers to summarize status. Please fill in! http://wiki.blender.org/index.php?title=Dev:Ref/MergeAndIntegrationPlanredirect=no 3) Google Summer of Code - Mentors and students still have a few days left to review or to update comments. - Official deadline for reviews and assigning mentors: April 22nd 07:00 UTC. - Official announcement of accepted students: April 25 19:00 UTC. Thanks! -Ton- Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation t...@blender.orgwww.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands ___ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers

- Doing even better RC testing was also discussed. The regression files on blender.org would have revealed the issues in release... @Ton, As well as the 2 bugs you mention that could have been found there were 2 others that AFAIK wouldn't have. - Crash on rendering with decimate tangent space: (don't think this is covered by our regressions). - Crash on loading 2.4x file with image grease pencil: (need to check all releases use same revision, linux release was 1 rev older). We _should_ really be updating regressions when cases like this are found, the problem then becomes that we end up with so many regressions that running them all becomes overly tedious. If you want I can look into automating our regression tests as apart of my BF work - at least the ones which don't rely on interactive tools. ___ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers

After testing of the bevel script, it appears to only give correct results for the default cube and other quite simple cases (ie even such a simple thing as scaling the cube to be rectangular gives incorrect results).

Re: [Bf-committers] Blender IRC meeting
Hi Cam, Good suggestion; there's actually two features in 'cont grab' combined that could be separated; - Hiding the mouse, and apply mouse deltas back on mouse pointer location, so you can move button values indefinitely - Wrapping the mouse in editor-boundaries around The first option should preferably only be active for buttons with flexible ranges, that demand dragging mouse outside of button boundaries. -Ton- Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation t...@blender.orgwww.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands On 4 Apr, 2011, at 5:30, Campbell Barton wrote: On Sun, Apr 3, 2011 at 4:33 PM, Ton Roosendaal t...@blender.org wrote: Hi all, 1) 2.57 - Startup.blend changes: discussed were two defaults: Continuous grab: disable as default factory setting.

Re: [Bf-committers] Blender IRC meeting
From a quick test of these scripts, 3 issues came up, #1 #2 are not blocking,
but would want to see #3 resolved before inclusion by default.
1) own math lib.
Bevel defines its own simple math functions.
cross2D, dot2D, triangle_normal, axis_angle_to_quat,
rotation_between_vectors_to_quat, intersect, these are defined in
mathutils.
mathutils docs: http://www.blender.org/documentation/250PythonDoc/mathutils.html
va module:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-extensions/contrib/py/scripts/addons/mesh_bevel/va.py
Unless there is some problem in mathutils that cant be resolved I'd
rather not have scripts having their own math libs.
2) speed.
IMHO python is not well suited to writing mesh tools, at least not
when realtime updates from sliders is expected.
on a 4k poly mesh the bridge tool took ~4-6sec per update on my 'AMD
Phenom II X6 1055T' cpu.
Having tools which are mainly suitable for low poly modeling is fine
but I would rather they not be enabled by default.
3) polluting custom properties.
operator settings, vertex induces , and version info is written into
objects custom properties.
This gives nice user experience but I rather we have a better way to
save operator settings then each tool dumping data into the objects
metadata (especially mesh data). See below.
Since custom properties will be saved permanently in blend files I
think this really needs to go before accepting into trunk addons,
possible solutions are to remove this feature or store cache in the
python module which means at least its not saved into the blend file
and data is local to the module.

I definitely agree for the bad bug, and place a call for GL coders with OSX ATI system, as ATI drivers on OSX have real issues the nVidia ones don't have. It is the latest update of the ATI drivers (the one Apple is supposed to have made following Valve requests to reach decent GL perfs) that revealed this incompatibility. That is previous releases were not having this crash at the time they were released. But the GL call causing the crash may have been introduced anytime during 2.5 dev.

Hi all, Here are notes from today's IRC meeting. 1) Current projects - Sergey (nazgul) is working on text editor word wrap fix, patch will be submitted for review. - For animation curves, there is still a pending issue with allocated data paths, such as sequence-color, node-custom etc. This is a basic design issue in Blender, which will take redesign time to fix... for now we accept the limitation, as it's already definitely better than 2.4x was. - Peter Schlaile will work on fixing Sequencer proxy/speed issues 2) Blender 2.5, todos, next test build release - Reading saved keymaps is still not functioning properly, Martin has it on the todo still. Will be lifted over this beta - Bug in reading keymaps (tracker 23552) will be fixed before beta by Campbell, so it works as previous release. - This wednesday I like to call for release-builds, unless someone finds serious showstoppers. Please notify it on the bf-committers list! - Nathan will coordinate release logs, to note what's better fixed, and where main issues are still. - Linux release: there are issues linking with libgz and libtiff now (fedora/opensuse).

I have one request for the beta: could we please also release the Blenderplayer? If there are issues with building the player, I can help people on IRC with resolving them. The player still has some bugs, but it would be nice to get more users to test it so we can make sure it's actually stable by the time Blender itself is stable.
