Indigo 2.2.6

[Phoenix]

Thanks for the update, Ono!

... My biggest Problem atm is using EXR for EnvMaps... Indigo mostly crashes just by loading them. I tried to convert a EXR to every possible format... all are crashing. ...

By the way, what's about the long expected HDR support?
Will it come in the foreseeable future?

nice update Ono, thanks for this build!

My biggest Problem atm is using EXR for EnvMaps... Indigo mostly crashes just by loading them. I tried to convert a EXR to every possible format... all are crashing.

New features are cool, but such a "ShowStopper" like this needs more attention!

Here a example EXR.

Are you using 32bit build?
I have no issues with this exr map and Indigo 2.2.6-64bit.

I'm using the 64 build and am having the same problems as ZomB. it can be due to the microsoft dependencies (msvcm90, etc...) I don't quite understand why some don't have a problem and I and a few such as ZomB aren't able to use EXRs... :(

I'm with the 64build.

Maybe Cindigo is the evil here, but I don't think so... in fused we trust ^^
Anyway I just paste here a generated material that crashes Indigo:

Code: Select all

    <material>

                <a>0.000000</a>
                <b>1.000000</b>
                <c>0.000000</c>
            </texture>
            <emission>
                <texture>
                    <texture_index>0</texture_index>
                </texture>
            </emission>
        </diffuse>
    </material>

The crash is a classic "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime" related, I attached my installed runtimes... something missing?!

I was having the same problem even on IME so it shouldn't be due to cindigo's xml.

[suvakas]

@ZomB
Yep, I also get crash with this material.
So the problem seems to be Cindigo related ??

[suvakas]

@ZomB
Well.. you have to use the material between <background_material> tags.

Code: Select all

<background_settings>
<background_material>
<material>
...
</material>
</background_material>
	<emission_scale>
	</emission_scale> 
</background_settings>

Anyway.. Fused, something is wrong in your material. You may want to check this out.

[fused]

cindigo is fine, the material, too

edit: ZomB's material is not a background material

[suvakas]

cindigo is fine, the material, too :)

edit: ZomB's material is not a background material

lol, gotcha.. didn't think about that at all. =)

its the .exr, having the same issues. same material with different texture is working just fine.

I got your material working with one of my exrs... (after some tweaks) but the same texture breaks IME...:S

UPDATE

This works:

Code: Select all

  <scenedata>
  <material>
   <name>EnvMap_mid4</name>
  <diffuse>
    <texture>
      <uv_set>albedo</uv_set>
      <path>rnl_probe.exr</path>
      <exponent>1.0</exponent>      
    </texture>

   <emission>
      <texture>
        <texture_index>0</texture_index>
      </texture>
   </emission>

    <albedo>
     <constant>
      <rgb>
      <rgb>0.588235 0.588235 0.588235</rgb>
      <gamma>2.2</gamma>
      </rgb>
     </constant>
    </albedo>
   <base_emission>
      <constant>
      <blackbody>
         <temperature>5770</temperature>

      </constant>
   </base_emission>

This doesn't:

                    </rgb>

            </base_emission>
            <layer>0</layer>

                <b>1.000000</b>
                <c>0.000000</c>

                </texture>
            </emission>
        </diffuse>
    </material>
</scenedata>

UPDATE

I've now done setup alike trought cindigo own material and it now works!!

[fused]

so blackbody base_emission works but rgb doesnt?

[Whaat]

Good stuff, ono!

So far, I am finding that with texture gamma=2.2, the absorption layer transmittance color seems a bit too dark. With gamma=1.0, it seems to render more as expected. Could this be a bug? (The attached image kind of shows it but it's not the best example)

Also, is there a more user-friendly name for 'absorption layer transmittance'? Maybe 'Surface Color' or 'Surface Transmittance' ???

so blackbody base_emission works but rgb doesnt?

Exponent = 1 works exponent=2.2 doesn't it seems

@Whaat:

Whaaaaaaaat!?!?!? :O these are amazing!
