Notes

  • The meeting discussed the bloom topic
    • The goal is to make it possible to easily achieve and control the bloom similar to before the Eevee-Next
    • The consensus is that it is to be done via compositor, possibly making it easier to switch and use the compositor
    • Whether the final goal is achieved by changes in the core nodes or by providing an essential asset is in a way an implementation detail.
    • At the moment of the meeting the route of the essential asset seemed the easiest one, but later Omar brought up that there are planned changes to the Glare node anyway, so the goal can be achieved by improving the “core”
    • Regardless, there are things that need to happen regardless:
      • Support single value socket
      • The “old” CPU compositor needs to be removed first
  • Omar implemented all nodes in the new CPU compositor!
    • Improvement of the regression tests are coming
    • After that the new CPU compositor will take over the old one.
