Render to object has strange behavior.
First several times a tried it I got error messages then the render to file panel opens, now it renders the file then shows the render to file panel.

Fixed bug in renderpass floating panel
Thanks for the heads up.

Code: Select all

function Execute(params)
{
	WindowsManager.CloseWindow("Project/Windows Manager Space/RP_PanelFrame")
	var rpf = Space.CurrentScene() + "/YafaRay4tS/RP_PanelFrame";

	if (Node.Exists(rpf))
	{
		//Node.Value(rpf, "RootNode") = rpf;
		Node.Value(rpf, "RootNode") = System.ThisOwner();
		Node.Value(rpf + "/Panel Node", "PanelEditorNode") = Space.CurrentScene() + "/YafaRay4tS/RenderPasses";
		Node.Copy(rpf, "/Project/Windows Manager Space");
		WindowsManager.Activate();
		WindowsManager.UpdateWindowsStructure();
	}
}

Sample scenes are done. Including a blend material demo.

Some have slightly older versions of lights and materials.

Changed Blend Material Collection - was using old materials, red numbers where only on the first 2 materials, changed default to a shiny diffuse material

bug - reset default settings not working - fixed the bug and moved the code to a command node YafaRay4tS/ResetToDefaults

Code: Select all

function Execute(params)
{
	var CONFLG_IN = 4
	var CONFLG_HIDDEN = 32

	var utilitydata = System.CreateDO("Clintons3D Package/Utility functions");

	var yafNode = Space.CurrentScene() + "/YafaRay4tS";
	var thedata = utilitydata.GetConnectorData(yafNode );
	var connectors = thedata.split("\n");

	for(var i=0;i<connectors.length;i++)
	{
		connector = connectors[i].split("\t");
		if(connector[3] & CONFLG_IN && !(connector[3] & CONFLG_HIDDEN))
			Node.ConReset(yafNode, connector[0])
	}
	Activity.Run(yafNode + "/Watch Dog Event");
}

bug - procedural type material textures were giving a false error - MaterialsFnSet about line 118

Code: Select all

if (data.ShaderAspect == 0) {
    if(Errors.AddIfImageExtensionBad(data.FileName)) {
        System.Trace("Texture file error for " + data.FileName);
    }
    File.WriteLine('\t<type sval="image"/>');
    if (data.textureType != "bump")
        File.WriteLine('\t<gamma fval="' + data.gamma + '"/>');
    File.WriteLine(' \t<filename sval="' + data.FileName.replace(/\\/g, '/') + '"/>');
    if (data.textureType == "bump" && data.isnormalmap)
        File.WriteLine('\t<normalmap bval="true"/>');
}

bug - BlendMaterial preview had old code for fixing the procedural texture direction - not needed anymore and incorrect now, so removed negative U processing

Your YafarayScripts is old. If the change is an improvement add it to the attached scripts.

Here it is, still does not work as expected in Camera View. (Does not Zoom in like the View does)
You will need to add a button to the Render to File to save the image.
As it is now it renders the scene.
From what I can tell it looks like you need to save the Convert Format bitmap in case the OptDetector Viewer is being used?

Found solution for Render to File popup dialog

inside YafaRay4tS/open panel node
changed
Node.Value(r2f, "RootNode") = r2f;
to
Node.Value(r2f, "RootNode") = System.ThisOwner();

Probably need to do the same to the Open Render Passes too.
I have added the RenderPassList.txt to both tS761B84 and tS761B8Std4
Using your code to open YafaRay4tS Help you could add it to the RenderPass panel

Code: Select all

WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");

//change all \ to /
var re;
re = /\\/g;

Also including the SupportFiles folder to tS761B8Std4 for the IES Spot light.

Image of popup panel and yafaray4ts render to file aspect

Bug: The Render to File popup will update values but not display the updated values. May have to give up on the popup panel idea.

trueBlue · Post by **trueBlue** » 07 Jul 2018, 02:46

Not sure if you understood what the YafaRay4tS toolbar.RsObj in the Yafaray Setup library is for. It's purpose is to reopen the toolbar incase a user closes it. The one you included in your last installer loaded an old prototype toolbar node in the scene.

The YafaRay4tS.RsScn and light setup in your last installer had the old lights and camera. Using your scene light's location and values, I updated them with the new lights. There is a big difference with the amount of light in the scene with the new lights. It is darker. I am pretty sure it has to do with the Attenuation changes.

I updated your installer with your Reset Toobar scripts.

Installer was based on old versions so had to pick and choose and add to the latest which has all the bug fixes.
"Except for the access file error with or without the libraries opened. Always have to select the Install button twice." - don't know this one
"Camera has been fixed and updated" - don't know what was broken. I think I added it to the new installer but not sure
Camera button was not working - fixed it
Removed all texture based materials - only valid in tS761 not tS761Std
Texture Bump Transparency didn't work at all here. You should fix this one and add them all to the UnOfficial Update for tS761(not Std unless you recreate for it)
Changed IES light to have a preview again and provided more robust error messages
Replaced the out of date Map node used for texturing materials

Render Object changes not included. Do another based on this latest if you want to have it in there. Your stuff was based on an old version and it was getting tricky to separate the old from the new.

changed the way the "Save Settings" button works. Before it would destroy the old and replace with new. Problem was an old version could completely replace a newer version. Now the values are copied and then the node is saved.

RC-4 is attached with most of the changes from rc-2 and RC-2 included.

YafaRay Installer RC-1

changes:
updated installer with changes
fixed background preview scale slider to not use negative numbers
error message if render width or height is less than 1 pixel
check for and error if animation start frame is greater than the end frame
render animation abort with "esc" key give error message and clear status via timer
removed IES generator script, function included in each yafaray ies light
light brightness adjustment for whole scene - used for lighting models that depend on bounced light which, purpose is to match the rendered result and is purely a visual effect

Putting together a trueSpace Update 4 with YafaRay4tS beta, which will include new trueSpace lights with your Color Picker, new Yafaray toolbar, and new Yafaray libraries. Most likely very late tonight or early tomorrow.
Do you have a trueSpace version of your new IES Spot?
Guessing but it looks like I can remove the Yafaray stuff from the Yafaray IES Spot and that would work with tS?

while I admire your hard-work on this plugin I would like to know if there is a comparision scheme "vRay vs YafaRay" (tSp versions).

The question : will YafaRay-renders be better of vRay-renders ?

Here is a quote from one of the original creators of YafaRay4tS

Jack Edwards wrote: 10 Jun 2009, 03:21 ...

As far as comparison goes, I'd say that a big advantage for YafaRay is that it's glass material actually works, where as tsVRay has some problematic bugs related to glass. On the other hand VRay is definitely faster and has an SSS shader.

As far as render quality goes, it's really about learning the render engines. You can do professional work in both.

This was a comparison of an older version of YafaRay. I don't know how VRay compares to the newer version of YafaRay and I don't know if the glass problem in VRay was ever addressed.

YafaRay4tS updates today

changed default solid color background to trueSpace blue

altered the Yafaray Node Camera defaults to angle=90, max angle=90, mirror=false, circular=false

added a valid texture file type check to the materials, specifically the Map node

added an error system to the render process - now just has the same valid texture check as the materials

next need the same texture checks for animation render

Nope, "sphere size exports the scale value instead of the size attribute", so size isn't read by the exporter anymore.

I don't knwo what you mean by "right", so I guess you're trying to make basic material. In that case you dont need the diffuse reflection map and basic transparency doesn't need a translucency map. Maybe the material and material modulation sections of the yafaray docs can help: http://www.yafaray.org/documentation/userguide

They were Linked right on the Background aspect and I checked to see if there were mutiple wires hooked up. All seemed okay. What I did notice though as soon as I checked "Mat trans refr", the backgound render turned black.

Also experimented with trying to match the default Workspace background color. Just an idea but was thinking the default Yaf Background Type should be None, with a blue background color like Workspace? Power not sure. Did not succeed in color that rendered the same as Workspace. It looks washed out or lighter if you will.

Off to try your new update. Thank You!

Not wires but the actual export with the 2 values switched in code. Ends up my theory was wrong, had nothing to do with reversed values but with the fact the tS could export transparent as false and mat transparent refraction as true. That combination isn't possible from Blender. I still need to check that it's working properly.
The settings for gamma and color space have a big impact on color output. I think the newest update above may have better default values. gamma in of 1.0, gamma out of 2.2 and srgb color space are the current default values.

Attached is the latest version of the YafaRay4tS node.

List of changes here is updated from a previous post.

MaterialFnSet - blend material scene value was not set
RendertoFile tab - changed width and height which were coming from the render area instead of render size
Reset Defaults Button - changed to general reset code
defaults for input color space=sRGB, yaf gamma in=1.0
defaults from Render node -png file format, run minimized...
update opti display node - add line to clear status
added open temp folder button
ShowDisplayFnSet - partial save timer(PST) update and fix status display
CameraFnSet - if invalid camera try last camera added to scene before defaulting to view mode
background transparent - default false
background mat transp refract set to false when exporting if transparent background is set to false

Reset defaults - added Watchdog run
renamed "Draw Settings Parameter" heading to "More Settings"
LightsFnSet - export tS default infinite light
MaterialFnSet - check for invalid map nodes created when user adds a map then does not press the switch button to activate it
cleaned code - removed debugging System.Trace from various nodes
background defaults color gray and power 1.0

Lights:
got attenuation values and color multiply math to match renders better
flipped exported geometry of area light - was upside down in the render

Todo:

add light attenuation control - light previews are not valid when lighting models depend on bounced light
make sample scene with a blend material - all other sample scenes are done
finish new ies light preview
sphere light needs size attribute on the default tab
area light needs render checkbox on the default tab

match YafaRay node camera defaults to yafaray camera defaults
check for unsupported image file formats

stress test - try to break it and patch the holes

I have already tried the Background settings before I originally posted about this thinking that maybe the defaults were changed. I am guessing that your last update may be corrupted. Are you saying that in your version, with the default settings, default lights, and rendering a simple cube produces a White background?
If so how about you upload the present version?
If you are done with the Yaf lights in the Lights.RsObj, could you upload those as well?

I think I understand what you're saying. The background is an unexpected black color.
Try using the background settings "Trans bg" and "Mat trans refr", but know that I think there may be a bug with the 2 checkboxes being reversed in the export. Also the "Mat trans refr" should have no effect unless "Trans bg" is also selected, but it does.

Old ies light on the right, new ies light on the left
Almost done with light work. The preview brightness matches the render more closely.
IES lights preview is improved and is compatible with more ies light files. On a side note, tests show that the YafaRay renderer does not render all ies lights properly.

Okay no problem.
Here is another stab at the Render Object
Concept is to include an encapsulated Camera 'Cam'.
Copy the Eye Camera values to an Object script 'EyeView'
Copy those values to the Cam
Using the Camera to Zoom 2 Object and Render
Copy the EyeView values back to the Eye Camera

It works pretty good and better then the present one.
The Render Object Camera is WIP and does not work.

Edit:
Just notice that when using Render to File it does not render the object, it renders the scene.
The solution is to add a Render Object button on the Render to File using this code:

Code: Select all

Library2.DlgGenericSave("",Space.CurrentScene() + "/YafaRay4tS/tSDisplay/Display",3);
WindowsManager.CloseWindow("Project/Windows Manager Space/R2F_PanelFrame")

Or even better would be to save the image without the Library2.DlgGenericSave.

Was able to combine Yafaray View and Camera - Render Object into one.
Zoom 2 Object from Yafaray Camera view is not Zooming in like Yafaray View does

Shouldn't the Set DOF Distance script be updating all of the Camera Data in the YafaRay4tS/Camera aspect?
Shouldn't the Camera Data's defaults be the same as the YafaRay4tS/Camera aspect?

When a yafaray camera is used the corresponding values on the YafaRay4tS camera aspect are ignored by the exporter.
The yafaray camera is newer, so the yafary4tS node will need to copy it's defaults, will add this one to my todo list.

These are the changes so far:

Merged from my version of YafaRay4tS:

MaterialFnSet - blend material scene value was not set
RendertoFile tab - changed width and height which were coming from the render area instead of render size
Reset Defaults Button - changed to general reset code
defaults for input color space=sRGB, yaf gamma in=1.0
defaults from Render node -png file format, run minimized...
update opti display node - add line to clear status
added open temp folder button
ShowDisplayFnSet - partial save timer(PST) update and fix status display
CameraFnSet - if invalid camera try last camera added to scene before defaulting to view mode

New items:

Reset defaults - added Watchdog run
renamed "Draw Settings Parameter" heading to "More Settings"
LightsFnSet - export tS default infinite light
MaterialFnSet - check for invalid map nodes created when user adds a map then does not press the switch button to activate it
cleaned code - removed debugging System.Trace from various nodes

Todo:

verify light export power
add light attenuation control - light previews are not valid when lighting models depend on bounced light
make sample scene with a blend material - all other sample scenes are done
download new lights and set power values and brightness based on:
0.5*power^2 for point and spot lights,
just plain power for area,directional,ies and sun lights and
0.5*power^2/radius^2 for sphere light
check area light - may be upside down relative to the render

Edit: match YafaRay node camera defaults to yafaray camera defaults
Edit: check for unsupported file formats

stress test - try to break it and patch the holes

When using Render to File with the Area Render the Width and Height changes to what you would expect.
When you change to say Render Scene the Width and Height still has the Area Render's Width and Height, as shown.
The rendered scene is correct, it does render the Width and Height entered in the Output - Render File, and the Area Render is unchecked. This seems misleading.

: Render to File Render Area changed the Width and Height.PNG (7.86 KiB) Viewed 4876 times

Anyway to set the Render to File's Width and Height to the Output - Render File's Width and Height, after using the Render Area?
If not maybe you could have Output - Render File's Width and Height and the Area Render's Width and Height with it's check box, in the Render to File?

When loading the lights from the toolbar they are coming from System/Preferences/Lights.
This is only for testing changes AFTER Saving/Reset.
You can have a window open in System/Preferences/Lights for making permeant changes.
You can have another window open in the scene for testing loading them from the toolbar.
I just recently discovered that the changes made to the default settings in the Yafaray Helper script were not being saved unless you follow the steps below. This seems to be the only thing that does not work, as I have made several changes to the lights without Saving/Reset. IDK?

1.) Save the Lights.RsObj to the preobjects folder
2.) Reset the Default Context.
In the YafaRay4tS layout, try out the lights from the toolbar.

3.) Make changes to the lights in System/Preferences/Lights
Word of caution, I edit the lights from the above path.
They are minimized just like the tS lights.
This makes them come in the Link Editor minimized.
They have been set to land on the grid just like the tS lights, so you should not change their Matrix and or ObjectMatrix.

4.) Save the Lights.RsObj to the preobjects folder
5.) Reset the Default Context.
Steps 4 and 5 are important before doing the next steps 6 and 7.
6.) When done with all changes, save them to the YafaRay Lights library FROM System/Preferences/Lights.
7.) You then need to Manually change the icons in the library.

be careful not to change the Matrix or ObjectMatrix(OwnerMatrix?)

The thing I do not like about the one on the Left is it is distracting when choosing a color.
It also seems out of place being in between the Luminance and RGB.
The reason for two scrubbers is to make it easier to get back to No Intensity = 1.000.
The present way it is with one scrubber is 0.000 - 20.000 and you have right click Reset to get No Intensity.
Not very fluid nor obvious.
Narrowed it down to two Intensity scrubbers, the one the left is set at 1.000 - 20.000 (No Intensity - Higher) and the one on the right is set at 0.000 - 1.000 (No Intensity - Lower).

I kind of like the new one on the Right.

BTW... I think you misunderstood me about the update for the Lum values.
The Lum in the tS Color is 0 - 240 verses 0.000 - 1.000
I was wonder if you could have match the tS Color.
No biggie what you have done is outstanding!

"Intensity at Top" makes the most sense to me.

"Intensity at Bottom" and "Intensity at Side w Scubbers2" separates the enter button from the red green blue values it uses.

Ugh, I can not come up with anything that looks good. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. The one on the far right is a YafaRay light used for No Intensity.
