ptex shader support

accessing images during creation

Sascha Fricke — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:15:31 -0000

I think it would be extremely useful if we'd be able to open the image file during rendering.
3delight does this for example (at least i know its openexr display driver is able to do that).
As I'm writing a renderman integration for Blender 2.5 as well as whiterabbit(i tthink dreamscapearts here on sourceforge) at least we both would benefit from this to be able to not only send the rendered images to blenders compositing but also watch it being rendered without the need of an extra framebuffer.

Multi-segment motion blur

Magnus Løfgren — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 14:50:20 -0000

Currently Pixie only seems to support linear interpolation between motion blur "subframes". It seems to only interpolates between the first subframe and the last subframe in the range, and discards the others inbetween.
Multi-segment motion blur is needed for rotating motion, wich accounts for pretty much all forms of animation.

If an example RIB is needed I might post that later when I have access to it.

Adding support for png image

Cedric PAILLE — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 20:39:34 -0000

I'd like to have PNG support in Pixie, all the (big) work is done ...

Is it possible to have this in the future releases ?

Cheers.

Final Gathering

Final gathering, and perhaps image based lighting!
So the GI in Pixie can be complete.

texmake makes too small textures

gre — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 21:55:02 -0000

Hi,

texmake file.tif texture.tex
crashes for size(file.tif) > 60 MB and
should work up to sizes of 300 MB.

Computer , disk, ram and processors are growing.

Load .rib file over http

Stephen Williams — Thu, 14 Sep 2006 13:40:01 -0000

I would like to write a php script that spits out .rib
content based on different parameters. I would like to
load this into pixie by typing, for example...

rndr -p http://myserver.com/generateRIB.php?param1=2

I would be very greatfull if this could be implimented
in future or if someone has an idea of how to do it
with the existing version.

kind regards,
Stephen

Configure/Compile without X11

t-dog — Wed, 03 May 2006 23:14:40 -0000

It would be nice to have the option of
configure/compileing pixie without using the X11
libraries so that I could specifically compile for
machines that don't use a window manager.

Imager shader support

I would love to see imager shader support in a near
future version of pixie.
