Extend Ovrtx Scene Generation

Extend OVRTX Scene Generation

When to Use

Use when changing Blender-to-USD export coverage, identity mapping, topology fingerprints, sparse generation reconciliation, or tests.

Boundaries

• Work in the distributed source checkout and use documented runtime interfaces.
• Preserve stock Blender USD export as the geometry authority. Add-on code may prepare temporary evaluated objects, normalize exported USD, validate identity, and compose add-on opinions.
• Keep temporary authoring reversible: restore modes, selection, active object, datablocks, and generated node groups in finally blocks.

Instructions

Read these files before editing:

1. addon/ovrtx_blender_example/scene_generation.py
   • _stock_export: fixed stock USD export contract (evaluation_mode="VIEWPORT", tessellated subdivision, triangulation, relative assets).
   • _temporary_export_identities: temporary object, mesh, and material session-UID properties.
   • _temporary_particle_hair_curves: model for temporary evaluated-geometry preparation and cleanup.
   • _normalize_stock_export_geometry: deterministic post-export normalization.
   • _validated_blender_prim_paths, _schema_paths: fail-closed Blender-ID-to-USD mapping.
   • _topology_fingerprints: determines whether dirty mesh/light IDs require regeneration.
   • _sparse_object_closure, _selected_stock_export, _write_scene_topology_delta: sparse replacement, dependency closure, instancing siblings, removals, and mapping rewrites.
   • _compile_add_on_opinions: post-export add-on opinions; do not move evaluated mesh topology here.
2. addon/ovrtx_blender_example/scene_generation_sessions.py
   • affected_blender_ids, topology_identity_changes, mark_scene_dirty, and generation handoff establish dirty-ID and publication semantics.
3. addon/ovrtx_blender_example/generation_runtime_adapters.py
   • Preserve candidate activation, retained-value replay, rollback, and immutable generation handoff.
4. addon/ovrtx_blender_example/topology_edit_fallback.py and blender_interactive_edit_builders.py
   • Route topology-changing depsgraph edits to regeneration; never disguise topology as a typed value write.

Implementation

1. Define the evaluated result and identity contract in tests. Cover an unchanged object, a modifier or Geometry Nodes result, changed vertex/index topology, shared mesh datablocks, collection/object instances, instance transforms, removal, and parent/material closure as applicable.
2. Extend temporary export preparation around _stock_export only if stock evaluation_mode="VIEWPORT" cannot express the case directly. Never mutate the saved .blend state.
3. Extend _temporary_export_identities and _validated_blender_prim_paths together when a new temporary or evaluated object needs durable correlation. Require one object identity and one schema path; reject missing or ambiguous mappings.
4. Extend _topology_fingerprints using deterministic evaluated data that changes exactly when authored topology must be replaced. Include instance source/collection identity and topology-affecting modifier state where required; exclude ordinary world transforms already handled by value edits.
5. Extend _sparse_object_closure so every selected replacement includes required parents, shared materials, instance sources, collection members, and affected siblings. Preserve explicit removal handling.
6. Update _write_scene_topology_delta, _rewritten_mapping, and _updated_generation_mappings only if the generated prim layout changes. Keep generation namespaces and predecessor composition intact.
7. Preserve _validate_composed_generation, generation digests, candidate rejection, and predecessor rollback. A later runtime pass must not repair an invalid authored generation.

Tests

Add focused tests beside:

• tests/test_scene_generation.py: export preparation, fingerprints, identity mapping, sparse closure, topology deltas, and rollback.
• tests/test_scene_generation_sessions.py: depsgraph dirty IDs, generation reuse, concurrent edits, activation, and failed-candidate behavior.
• tests/test_topology_edit_fallback.py: topology classification and regeneration routing.
• tests/test_scene_generation_contract.py: Blender-backed authored USD evidence when the feature needs real evaluated geometry.

Run focused tests first, then the full suite:

python -m pytest -q \
  tests/test_scene_generation.py \
  tests/test_scene_generation_sessions.py \
  tests/test_topology_edit_fallback.py
python -m pytest -q tests

When Blender and an installed runtime are available, run the documented validator with a clean Blender profile. Require authored USD inspection before treating a runtime render as proof. Record runtime unavailability separately from source-test failure.

Acceptance

• The generated USD contains the evaluated geometry/topology and preserves relative dependencies.
• Every supported Blender object maps uniquely to its object and schema prim.
• Unchanged topology reuses the generation; changed or removed topology creates a validated candidate.
• Sparse replacement carries all dependencies and leaves no stale predecessor prim active.
• Candidate failure leaves the predecessor live and retains pending edits.
• The installed runtime is consumed unchanged.
