Week 13
What I did this week
This week I wrapped up my GSoC project.
- Commited Volume optimizations to master, after testing them again with several test scenes. (5af00a3d12cb, 32a5313b4170, 6e5d188d17f2, 5bdea8131939)
- I wrote my final report, which contains an overview of all the work I did this summer: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:DingTo/GSoC_2014/User_Documentation
Wrapping Up and Thanks
GSoC was a great experience and a lot of fun again. Nevertheless it was a challenge this year with ups and downs. Performance is a time consuming thing and you often work on something, which then doesn't turn out to be useful at all. Don't ask me how often I made Cycles slower in my tests this summer. :P
- I want to thank my mentor Sergey, for help and guidance throughout the summer, much appreciated. And it was fun to discuss and argue with you about Cycles. :D
- Also thanks to Brecht, who helped me at the beginning of this years GSoC, and gave me some great ideas beforehand on what I can work on. I hope you have a lot of fun at Solid Angle! :)
- Thanks to Lukas, who helped me with the Equi-Angular optimization.
- Thanks to Ton and the Blender Institute/Foundation for accepting me as a student for GSoC this year again!
Best regards, Thomas
