Fix volume not visible in render with "hide volume" This fixes an issue that caused volumes to disappear in renders when the "hide volume" or "hide uunselected" display options are enabled. The issue was that the modifier is called prior to rendering, with the "MOD_APPLY_RENDER" flag, as expected. However immediately after, and while still rendering, the modifier is called again, without the render flag, causing it to be recomputed as it should be for the viewport display. This happens because Blender allows you to work while rendering, and thus the display version of the modifiers has to be computed. The issue is of course that while this is not a problem for meshes, as they are copied and passed along the modifier stack, data which is read directly (such as volume data), is still subject to side-effects. This commit prevents the modifier from updating the data while a render is in progress, thus keeping the render data intact. This unfortunately causes the minor side-effect of full resolution smoke being displayed in the viewport after rendering, even when the "simplify" option is used. Note however that this causes no extra data loading, and thus performance is unaffected. Also note that the hiding options don't suffer from this side effect, and so if the volume is hidden, it's hidden state will still be in effect after the render, as hiding does not rely on the cache being reloaded. |
