Dynamic Paint is a new Blender feature I've been developing.

It allows painting animated textures with other objects and particles. Basically it enables a whole new way for Blender objects to interact.

Currently Dynamic Paint is able to generate paint/color textures, wetmaps, and displacement maps. Output is saved as an image sequence, and thus can be used to create any kind of visual output.


This patch is tested by community and should be very stable. At least I haven't experienced any crashes with it.

Hopefully some of you can review this before 2.5x feature freeze is over, so I can fix possible errors in time. :)
