Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
I use a Windows 7 64 bit Pro, 4GB RAM Intel Core 2 Quad.
I don't know if it's me, but this bug has been here for a long time, it looks fine in the viewport but when I OpenGL render it, the shading is not in place. Here's an image: http://i.imgur.com/0XU4rPS.png?1
I know it's supposed to work, because this guy: https://www.youtube.com/user/cfirwin3 has a tutorial series called "Hacking the Viewport" (it's not really hacking, it's just OpenGL rendering), and on episode 5, the SSAO worked for him just fine.
I would really love for this bug to be fixed.

Could you upload a .blend so we can see what you are doing?
Yes. disgusting_cells_test.blend this blend file was an experiment.
Added subscriber: @mont29
Please do not set priority yourself! Especially not to 'High' and such.
Eeeeh, meant to move it to Normal…
@mont29 Sorry, I'm new here.
Added subscriber: @ideasman42
There is no blend file showing the error pointed out in http://i.imgur.com/0XU4rPS.png?1 and no image showing the error in
disgusting_cells_test.blendFrom looking into this report its not clear what the error is supposed to be.
OpenGL AO Has only just been added (not even been in a release). yet the report claims this has been a bug for a long time.
Please provide Blend file and an image of what is wrong with it.
@ideasman42 Here's the blend file of the image. cube_lighting_ao_set.blend

Can't confirm that here. @GabrielSwason, could you place this dll into the folder that contains the blender.exe and test again? Will be slow but shows us if this possibly is a graphics driver issue or not.
You should press the buttons at the lower part of the 3D viewport that has the effect to make sure they are enabled. Doing it from the menu may not work.
Never mind. I just have a crappy graphics card. And it's not compatible for any drivers.
@Psy-Fi What do you mean? enable what?
Actually file works OK here (even invoking rendering from the menu) so it is probably a driver issue. Especially if trying using the dll by Julian works. If you have a graphics card not compatible with any drivers (which card is that by the way and why does it not support drivers?) then you are shooting yourself in the foot here.
@Psy-Fi I have an ATI Radeon HD 3600. It's pretty old.
This is the latest driver I can find. The HD 3600 seems to support OGL 3.2 so it should work.
@JulianEisel The DLL file works for both ambient occlusion and depth of field, but it's slow like crap. Is there a faster version of it?
The faster version is called driver. But drivers can have their own peculiarities and it's possible that Radeon's driver has a bug. We have a lot of reports on radeon 3xxx series unfortunately.
OK I can actually see something similar on my Intel card. We have different results in rendering and in viewport. I'm not sure if it's the exact same issue but I will investigate.
Alright, so I did some debugging on my Intel and it seems that the issue is that the derivatives calculated from the driver are the issue. Basically, the normals are flipped, and you get shading at the points instead of the cavities.
See this very old thread that describes the issue for ATI https://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/showthread.php/164647-weird-dFdx-dFdy-on-ATI/page1
I made a bug report for Intel, but for ATI it's unlikely the issue will be addressed since support has been discontinued.
I could code workarounds for those GPUs basically we have to examine the driver and GPU strings and set a few factors accordingly to what each driver does. I'll have to ask other developers what they think about this...I don't like the solution too much but it will make those GPUs work at least.
To the reporter:
I will workaround this, but I need the contents of your system_info.txt file first (Go to help menu in blender, select system info, open the file from a text editor in blender)
@Psy-Fi Here's the system info

this works for me but is different than in the view port
Bumped the effect up for more visibility
Awesome, thanks, that's exactly what I expected, will fix it soon.
Just a note, I have filed a bug report for Intel cards here
https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/543976
but I should be able to patch this even if they don't accept this as a bug.
Fixed this for the ATI case, will need Aaron's System_Info.txt as well to fix for Intel

Hi Antony,
Since this task is closed as "Resolved", would you like me to comment here or open a new report?
Thanks,
David
Well if this issue was not fixed then here but if it is a different bug then always a new report
yes, report here please
I think he was talking. About #44594
Thanks Aaron. Was referring to this issue, just takes me a long time to type and correct mistakes due to dyslexia.

Viewport_Ambient_Occlusion_Intel_vs_NVIDIA_test.blend
Noticed the same issue under Windows 7 while using the Intel HD 3000, Viewport Ambient Occlusion is reversed with official 2.74 (and recent 2.74.5 versions, more on that in a moment) compared to OpenGL render.
Out of interest, if Intel driver related, why does enabling 'Depth Of Field' correct the reversed Ambient Occlusion (Viewport)? With DoF enabled, both Viewport and OpenGL render are identical in official 2.74 x64 (
000dfc0) under Windows. Also, I believe GNU/Linux Mint uses the open source Intel driver and does not exhibit the same issue? This is certainly not a complaint, just interested to learn why. Thank you, appreciate your great Blender additions.Official 2.74 (
000dfc0) without 'Depth Of Field'Official 2.74 (
000dfc0) with 'Depth Of Field'Noticed you applied a fix for Intel HD 3000 and HD 4000 graphics cards in version 2.74.3 x64 (
883663a) for Windows, this fix no longer has effect in recent 2.74.5 versions, AO is once again reversed (just in the Viewport) unless Depth Of Field is enabled.After several tests, the AO reversed issue only seems to affect an Optimus Laptop while using the Intel card under Windows. A desktop system with an Intel HD 4000 displays the Viewport AO correctly in official 2.74 (
000dfc0) without a fix in place, also in 2.74.5 (4288ab1) while running under Windows.On a slightly different note.
With Viewport Shading set to 'Texture', notice Viewport AO remains enabled after selecting 'Shadeless', is that the expected behavior, or should AO be disabled while Shadeless is activated?
Thank you for your time.

Can you attach your system_info.txt file please? I'll add your GPU/driver as an exception to our GPU detection module.
Re: shadeless: Yes, shadeless does not influence full screen effects like Ambient occlusion, this is expected.
Sorry for not being able to get back to you sooner.
Spent time trying to identify the cause and understand why AO will work correctly when DoF is enabled, or while creating an OpenGL render.
After many tests, including disabling my NVIDIA card and looking at different Intel drivers, sadly I'm no closer to understanding.
Based upon my previous finding, that adding DoF fixes AO reversal issue with a problematic Intel card, rather than adding a fix for some Intel cards to reverse the viewport AO effect, which then also incorrectly reverses an OpenGL render (please see below images), would it be possible to add an unseen null transform, for example a DoF but with with a large distance setting or f/stop (see below image tests)?
Hope these images help explain.

Thanks for explaining. Assumed shadeless would naturally disable all shading effects (including AO). Shadeless is useful for viewing baked Cycles textures where further AO is not necessary.

Hi this is an Intel driver bug, if you search this thread there's even a bug report to Intel, where they have promptly reported what the status is:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/543976
TL:DR version, in new drivers it's fixed and we have to patch it for old drivers, so I really need that system_info.txt please.
Thanks for your rapid reply.
I did read your Intel bug report (but rather embarrassingly due to the broad light blue bottom bar completely missed Intel's follow-up replies) and understood it was driver related. From an end users perspective, I was just trying to understand how with the same troublesome driver, enabling DoF fixed the AO issue, and why OpenGL render seemed unaffected.
Thank you for your help.
David
Explanation is that when doing offscreen rendering or using depth of field, SSAO effect is rendered to an offscreen buffer first. In case of offscreen rendering this is just copied to a file after rendering. In the case of depth of field, the SSAO offscreen buffer is passed as input to the depth of field effect. Using an offscreen buffer as opposed to not using one is what triggers the driver bug.
Recent buildbot should be fixed for your card, if it's not, please ping me here.
Thanks!
Thank you Antony, really appreciate the information.
Tried a build after your commit, viewport is corrected, regrettably the patch breaks OpenGL render.

Based upon your helpful explanation, (just for problematic GPUs) instead of reversing GG.dfdyfactors- [x] = 1.0; value, is it possible to move AO rendering to the offscreen buffer, so viewport and OpenGL AO render provide the expected outcome?
Hope your week is going well.
David
Can you try once more with the buildbot build tomorrow? I have an HD3000 in my laptop too but for some weird reason it's impossible to use optimus options to switch to Intel card. Probably some bug with recent drivers, and troubleshooting the issue gave poor results since I must be the only person in the multiverse wanting to use enforce the Intel card. Anyway, for that reason I can't really debug this locally. I tried changing the offscreen factor based on what you mentioned above, I just hope it's correct.
As to always rendering offscreen, yes it can be done, but it's an extra step. Why lose the performance if we can avoid it?
Certainly (see test images).
Which NVIDIA driver are you using, 347.88, 350.12, other? I'm presently using 347.88, but have downloaded 350.12 to try and see if I can reproduce your optimus issue.
Your "only person in the multiverse wanting to..." comment made me smile. Generally, I use the NVIDIA card for improved view-port display performance. If using the NVIDIA card for GPGPU, I start another instance of Blender using the HD 3000 for display, I'm then able to carry on modelling without slowdowns. Also, unless I switch to discrete NVIDIA GPU in the BIOS, I have Linux Mint (dual boot) setup to use the HD 3000 by default, this saves battery life plus overcomes some GNU/Linux NVIDIA driver issues. So you're not the only one using your HD 3000. :)
.
Regrettably GG.dfdyfactors- [x] = -1.0; breaks offscreen buffer rendering and doesn't help OpenGL render.

For problematic cards, it seems offscreen buffer rendering is the only solution (below images), even with a minor (based on the addition of DoF) performance hit?

Alright, I have my Intel back after the last NVIDIA update. My driver is a little older but I'll try to patch up both versions if I can download the same version.
Alright, I think it should be fine now, thanks for the report!
As you suspect, everything appears to be fine. Your work on fixing this is very much appreciated, thank you!
In connection with [
150a4b2], unless new problematic hardware versions are discovered, rather needing to keep adding drivers to the list, would it be reasonable to explain to users there is a fix in place, they just need to update to the latest available Intel driver for their hardware (and possibly supply a link to the Intel driver page)?We'd have to keep the list anyway to detect if a driver is problematic. In that case, we can just patch it blender side.
Thanks for your quick reply. I meant rather than several driver revisions for the same hardware, the list will contain just the most recent driver revision for each piece of troublesome hardware. Then ask people to upgrade to the latest driver...
Considering other future viewport improvements, hoped the above idea would be less work for you, and people would not need to wait for the next official/Buildbot version of Blender to be patched, as far as they are concerned (after updating their GPU driver) the fix would be transparent. In effect anyone with a HD 4000 (or above) will gain the benefit of Intel's patched driver, anyone with a HD 3000 (or other reported hardware) would gain the benefit of your Blender patch, plus most recent driver improvements.
The problem is that driver version/vendor/hardware strings do not have a standard format according to OpenGL spec. They can change at any time.
So the sentence "most recent driver" does not make sense. It would make sense if you could establish a robust way of comparison operation between driver strings, which is not the case here.
Based upon Micheal Coppock (Intel) last reply, I assumed driver 9.17.10.4101 will be the last revision for the HD 3000 line, as it has reached end of life, with HD 4000 soon to follow. Shame Intel would not release one last diver to fix their bug in the HD 3000 GPU, but understand products cannot be supported (on Windows) forever. With understand exceptions, this is also another benefit of GNU/Linux.
Not really keen on Windows 10, but may try it bare metal to see how Microsoft's Intel driver compares.
Anyway, concerned taking too much of your time, thank you for an interesting discussion and taking time to explain complexities, will leave you to code in peace. :)
