VisTrace - v0.9.0

World tracing update 🎉

Major Changes

• BSP parsing replacing the temporary util.TraceLine calls, with texturing including displacement texture blending #14
• Traverse now returns nil on misses, or a new VisTraceResult userdata which lazy loads fields (this breaks all existing vistracers but required for efficiency going forward) #15
• BSDF material table has also been replaced with userdata, and you no longer need to copy hit result shading data to a material #20

Minor Changes

• Textures now use bilinear filtering TAServers/VTFParser#1
• Bundled MRAO textures #26
• Correction of backfacing shading normals when the geometric normal is frontfacing #24

Bug Fixes

• Various memory allocation issues

VisTrace - v0.9.0-pre1

THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PRERELEASE, EXPECT BUGS

A certain server owner pulled VisTrace from master before going on holiday, so here's a prerelease build of VisTrace 0.9 that's compatible with the (also incomplete) Lua API version 0.9 on the server.

VisTrace - v0.8.2

Major Changes

• Port to Clang + CMake/Ninja toolchain in order to use OpenMP 4 while maintaining ABI compatibility with MSVC 55522b3
• Completely refactor internal storage of acceleration structure data, increasing ease of extension and efficiency 6fce5ac

A side effect of moving to Clang + CMake + Ninja is that building to x86 no longer functions, and after trying what was suggested in https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16259 I still couldn't get it to stop passing /machine:x64 to lld-link, meaning it fails to compile even the simple test program

VisTrace - v0.8.1

Bug Fixes

• Move HDRI load location from materials/vistrace/hdris to data/vistrace_hdris as it seems the hdr files renamed to pngs don't load from a GMA, only filesystem addons e406206

VisTrace - v0.8.0

Major Changes

• Environment map importance sampling fde6e80
• Renamed BSDFSampler to Sampler and exposed methods fde6e80

Bug Fixes

• Old vistrace_mark boolean stored on entities is not guaranteed to work with multiple accel structs on a single client, replaced with a lookup table containing the entity pointers cbcc003
