Hello Catherine,
Nice to know that you are already a C++ pro.. I’m currently busy reviving my (25 years ago) old C-skills, in order to start some serious digging and reading into the Blender source-code.
What I initially wanted to understand is:
– How Cycles works under the hood.
– What type of (image, color, vector) data is being transported between the various nodes.
– Why one can connect one color node output-stream into another (different) color node-input
Since the official Blender “manual” seriously lacks this type of information (if any info is present at all :-})
I’m not looking for any kind of information about C-datatypes. but thanks for the reference to the website
It is a very informative place to learn from.
