Added support for rendering Arbitrary Output Variables (AOVs) for detailed outputs like beauty, albedo, normal, depth, and position.
Added new functions `render_aov` and `accumulate_aov` for AOV data management during rendering.
Added AOV rendering capabilities to the `SimpleLit` material with specific functions.
Changed the material system to include new function pointers for AOV rendering.
Changed the renderer to initialize and update AOV targets during the rendering process.
Changed the main rendering loop to handle AOVs and update render targets accordingly.
Fixed various minor issues, including function signature updates, variable name changes, and improved error handling for memory allocations.
Changed CMakeLists.txt to set the C standard to C11.
Added multiple binary image files for new visual assets.
Added several new image files to enhance rendering capabilities.
Changed stb_image.h to improve support for various image formats.
Changed ray tracing engine to enhance ray creation and intersection.
Changed triangle structure to use a vertex array for better attribute handling.
Changed scene initialization to accommodate new texture management.
Added:
- Updated `.gitignore` to ignore the `[Bb]uild/` directory.
- Additional tasks added to the roadmap in `README.md` for light unit standardization and GPU backend support.
Changed:
- Removed line in `settings.json` that disabled error squiggles for C/C++ code.
- Modified `Triangle.h` to include `material_id` in `triangle_t` and reorganized properties.
- Reordered parameters in `triangle_collection_init` for clarity.
- Updated `shading_context_t` in `Material.h` and added size parameter to `material_create`.
- Streamlined initialization in `scene_init` and updated `scene_free` for proper resource management.
- Updated `window_create` in `Window.h` to accept a `render_job_t` parameter.
- Introduced `renderer_start` in `Renderer.c` to handle rendering jobs and optimized pixel rendering logic.
