New point cache file format: - HEADER (beginning of each file) * general header: + 8 char: "BPHYSICS" + 1 int: simulation type (same as PTCacheID->type) * custom header (same for sb, particles and cloth, but can be different for new dynamics) + 1 int: totpoint (number of points) + 1 int: data_types (bit flags for what the stored data is) - DATA (directly after header) *totpoint times the data as specified in data_types flags - simulation type soft body = 0, particles = 1, cloth = 2 - data types (more can be added easily when needed) data flag contains ---------------------------------------- index (1<<0) 1 int (index of current point) location (1<<1) 3 float velocity (1<<2) 3 float rotation (1<<3) 4 float (quaternion) avelocity (1<<4) 3 float (used for particles) xconst (1<<4) 3 float (used for cloth) size (1<<5) 1 float times (1<<6) 3 float (birth, die & lifetime of particle) boids (1<<7) 1 BoidData Notes: - Every frame is not nescessary since data is interpolated for the inbetween frames. - For now every point is needed for every cached frame, the "index" data type is reserved for future usage. - For loading external particle caches only "location" data is necessary, other needed values are determined from the given data. - Non-dynamic data should be written into an info file if external usage is desired. * Info file is named as normal cache files, but with frame number 0; * "Non-dynamic" means data such as particle times. * Written automatically when baking to disk so basically a library of particle simulations should be possible. - Old disk cache format is supported for reading, so pre 2.5 files shouldn't break. However old style memory cache (added during 2.5 development) is not supported. To keep memory cached simulations convert the cache to disk cache before svn update and save the blend. - External sb and cloth caches should be perfectly possible, but due to lack of testing these are not yet enabled in ui. Other changes: - Multiple point caches per dynamics system. * In the future these will hopefully be nla editable etc, but for now things are simple and the current (selected) point cache is used. * Changing the amount of cached points (for example particle count) is allowed, but might not give correct results if multiple caches are present. - Generalization of point cache baking etc operator & rna code. - Comb brushing particle hair didn't work smoothly.

Point Cache Refactoring ======================= Caching and Baking: - The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates. - There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles. - The cloth autoprotect feature was removed. - The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries. - The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions. - PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type. - Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth. - Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now. Library Linking: - Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects. - Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked. - Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh). Physics UI: - Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth. - Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options. - Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable. - I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers. - Fixed modifier error drawing glitch. Particles: - Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() .. - Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading. - Make particle threads work with autothreads. Continue Physics: - The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache. - This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics. Todo: - Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it. - Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion. - Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B. - A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested. - The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.

Pointcache code cleanup and disk cache compression options: * Massive reorganization of pointcache code, things are now cleaner than ever. * For all but smoke the cache is first written to memory when using disk cache and after that written to disk in one operation. This allows less disk operations and the possibility to compress the data before writing it to disk. * Previously only smoke cache could be compressed, now the same options exist for other physics types too (when using disk cache). For now the default compression option is still "no compression", but if there aren't any problems this can be set to "light compression" as it's actually faster than no compression in most cases since there's less data to write to the disk. Based on quick tests heavy compression can reduce the file size down to 1/3rd of the original size, but is really slow compared to other options, so it should be used only if file size is critical! * The pointcache code wasn't really 64bit compatible (for disk cache) until now, so this update should fix some crashes on 64bit builds too. Now all integer data that's saved to disk uses 32 bit unsigned integers, so simulations done on 64bit should load fine on 32bit machines and vice versa. (Important disk cache simulations made on 64bit builds should be converted to memory cache in a revision before this commit). * There are also the beginnings of extradata handling code in pointcache in anticipation of adding the dynamic springs for particle fluids (the springs need to be stored as extradata into point cache). * Particles were being read from the cache with a slightly wrong framerate. In most cases this probably wasn't noticeable, but none the less the code is now correct in every way. * Small other fixes here and there & some cosmetic changes to cache panel, but over all there should be no functional changes other than the new disk cache compression options. * This whole re-organization also seems to fix bug #25436 and hopefully shouldn't introduce any new ones!

Point Cache Refactoring ======================= Caching and Baking: - The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates. - There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles. - The cloth autoprotect feature was removed. - The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries. - The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions. - PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type. - Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth. - Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now. Library Linking: - Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects. - Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked. - Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh). Physics UI: - Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth. - Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options. - Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable. - I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers. - Fixed modifier error drawing glitch. Particles: - Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() .. - Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading. - Make particle threads work with autothreads. Continue Physics: - The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache. - This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics. Todo: - Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it. - Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion. - Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B. - A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested. - The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.

Pointcache code cleanup and disk cache compression options: * Massive reorganization of pointcache code, things are now cleaner than ever. * For all but smoke the cache is first written to memory when using disk cache and after that written to disk in one operation. This allows less disk operations and the possibility to compress the data before writing it to disk. * Previously only smoke cache could be compressed, now the same options exist for other physics types too (when using disk cache). For now the default compression option is still "no compression", but if there aren't any problems this can be set to "light compression" as it's actually faster than no compression in most cases since there's less data to write to the disk. Based on quick tests heavy compression can reduce the file size down to 1/3rd of the original size, but is really slow compared to other options, so it should be used only if file size is critical! * The pointcache code wasn't really 64bit compatible (for disk cache) until now, so this update should fix some crashes on 64bit builds too. Now all integer data that's saved to disk uses 32 bit unsigned integers, so simulations done on 64bit should load fine on 32bit machines and vice versa. (Important disk cache simulations made on 64bit builds should be converted to memory cache in a revision before this commit). * There are also the beginnings of extradata handling code in pointcache in anticipation of adding the dynamic springs for particle fluids (the springs need to be stored as extradata into point cache). * Particles were being read from the cache with a slightly wrong framerate. In most cases this probably wasn't noticeable, but none the less the code is now correct in every way. * Small other fixes here and there & some cosmetic changes to cache panel, but over all there should be no functional changes other than the new disk cache compression options. * This whole re-organization also seems to fix bug #25436 and hopefully shouldn't introduce any new ones!

Point cache editing: - Baked point caches for particles, cloth and softbody can now be edited in particle mode. * This overwrites the old cloth/sb cache editmode editing. * The type of editable system is chosen from a menu. * For particles the current particle system and it's current cache are used. - Currently this only works for caches that are in memory, but some automatic conversion from disk to memory and back can be implemented later. - All tools from hair editing can't be applied to point caches and are hidden in the tool panel and specials menu. Some functionality like subdividing paths can be later implemented in a slightly different way from how it works for hair. - Code is not yet optimized for speed, so editing might be slow sometimes. Known issues: - Cloth doesn't update properly while in particle mode, due to the way cloth modifier currently works. Daniel can you check on this? - As "particle mode" is not only for particles any more some other name would be in place? - Better icons are needed for the path, point, and tip-modes as the current icons from mesh edit mode are quite misleading. - Direct editing of point velocities is not yet implemented, but will be in the future. Other changes: - Hair editing doesn't require a "make editable" button press any more. - Multiple caches in single particle system disables changing emission properties. - Unified ui code for all point cache panels. * Defined in buttons_particle.py and imported for cloth, smoke & softbody. - Proper disabling of properties in ui after baking point caches. (Daniel could you please make needed disable code for smoke panels as their functionality is not familiar to me.) - Hair weight brush has been removed. Once hair dynamics is re-implemented I'll code a more useable alternative to the functionality. Bug fixes: - Unlinking particle settings crashed. - Deleting the active object with particles in the scene crashed. - Softbody didn't write point caches correctly on save.

Point Cache Refactoring ======================= Caching and Baking: - The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates. - There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles. - The cloth autoprotect feature was removed. - The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries. - The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions. - PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type. - Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth. - Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now. Library Linking: - Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects. - Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked. - Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh). Physics UI: - Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth. - Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options. - Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable. - I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers. - Fixed modifier error drawing glitch. Particles: - Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() .. - Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading. - Make particle threads work with autothreads. Continue Physics: - The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache. - This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics. Todo: - Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it. - Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion. - Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B. - A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested. - The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.

/* copies point data to cache data */
Pointcache code cleanup and disk cache compression options: * Massive reorganization of pointcache code, things are now cleaner than ever. * For all but smoke the cache is first written to memory when using disk cache and after that written to disk in one operation. This allows less disk operations and the possibility to compress the data before writing it to disk. * Previously only smoke cache could be compressed, now the same options exist for other physics types too (when using disk cache). For now the default compression option is still "no compression", but if there aren't any problems this can be set to "light compression" as it's actually faster than no compression in most cases since there's less data to write to the disk. Based on quick tests heavy compression can reduce the file size down to 1/3rd of the original size, but is really slow compared to other options, so it should be used only if file size is critical! * The pointcache code wasn't really 64bit compatible (for disk cache) until now, so this update should fix some crashes on 64bit builds too. Now all integer data that's saved to disk uses 32 bit unsigned integers, so simulations done on 64bit should load fine on 32bit machines and vice versa. (Important disk cache simulations made on 64bit builds should be converted to memory cache in a revision before this commit). * There are also the beginnings of extradata handling code in pointcache in anticipation of adding the dynamic springs for particle fluids (the springs need to be stored as extradata into point cache). * Particles were being read from the cache with a slightly wrong framerate. In most cases this probably wasn't noticeable, but none the less the code is now correct in every way. * Small other fixes here and there & some cosmetic changes to cache panel, but over all there should be no functional changes other than the new disk cache compression options. * This whole re-organization also seems to fix bug #25436 and hopefully shouldn't introduce any new ones!

However old style memory cache (added during 2.5 development) is not supported. To keep memory cached simulations convert the cache to disk cache before svn update and save the blend. - External sb and cloth caches should be perfectly possible, but due to lack of testing these are not yet enabled in ui. Other changes: - Multiple point caches per dynamics system. * In the future these will hopefully be nla editable etc, but for now things are simple and the current (selected) point cache is used. * Changing the amount of cached points (for example particle count) is allowed, but might not give correct results if multiple caches are present. - Generalization of point cache baking etc operator & rna code. - Comb brushing particle hair didn't work smoothly.

Pointcache refresh part 2 * Based on what happens during simulation the cache is marked (also in cache panel, this could possibly be extended to 3d view as well) as: - exact (not marked) - outdated (simulation is not done completely with current settings) - non-exact (frames were skipped during simulation) * The parameter "cache step" effects the number of frames between saved cache frames. - This can save a lot of memory (or disk space) if absolutely frame accurate simulation is not required. - Speeds up the "quick caching" very much. - Frames between cached frames are interpolated from the cached frames. - Current default value of 10 frames works nicely with up/down-arrows (skip 10 frames forwards/backwards on timeline), but can be changed if wanted. * The caching can work in normal or "quick" mode: [Normal cache] - Basic: Calculate what even happens (settings change, big frame steps etc.) and cache results, if possible try to use "cache step" when saving cache frames. - Becomes non-exact: After larger than 1 frame steps. - Becomes outdated: After any change effecting the simulation other than frame steps. - Pros/cons: Freedom of doing anything and playing with particles, but exact results have to calculated from the beginning. [Quick cache] - Basic: Calculate simulation up to current frame automatically on changes with cache step sized jumps in simulation. With multiple "quick cached" simulations the smallest cache step is used. - Becomes non-exact: Always from frame 1 (unless cache step = 1). - Becomes outdated: Never. - Pros/cons: Not very accurate, but super fast! - Todo: Transform of any animated (non-autokeyed) object is locked! Probably needs some tinkering with anim sys overrides. * The simulation can be run forwards or backwards even if it's cache is outdated or non-exact, the following rules apply in these situations: - step forwards (to unknown) -> simulate from last exact frame, store result - step backwards (to known) -> result is interpolated from existing frames, store result, clear cache forwards if current frame is after last exact frame * "Calculate to current frame" runs the simulation from start to current frame with a frame steps of 1. - Baking does the same, but runs the simulation all the way to the end of simulation. - Rendering does this automatically if the simulation is outdated of non-exact, so all rendered simulations will always be updated and exact. * Every cache panel also holds buttons to "Bake all dynamics", "Free all dynamics" and "Update all dynamics to current frame". * Cloth simulation supports the new cache too.

Point cache editing: - Baked point caches for particles, cloth and softbody can now be edited in particle mode. * This overwrites the old cloth/sb cache editmode editing. * The type of editable system is chosen from a menu. * For particles the current particle system and it's current cache are used. - Currently this only works for caches that are in memory, but some automatic conversion from disk to memory and back can be implemented later. - All tools from hair editing can't be applied to point caches and are hidden in the tool panel and specials menu.

Known issues: - Cloth doesn't update properly while in particle mode, due to the way cloth modifier currently works. Daniel can you check on this? - As "particle mode" is not only for particles any more some other name would be in place? - Better icons are needed for the path, point, and tip-modes as the current icons from mesh edit mode are quite misleading. - Direct editing of point velocities is not yet implemented, but will be in the future. Other changes: - Hair editing doesn't require a "make editable" button press any more. - Multiple caches in single particle system disables changing emission properties. - Unified ui code for all point cache panels. * Defined in buttons_particle.py and imported for cloth, smoke & softbody. - Proper disabling of properties in ui after baking point caches. (Daniel could you please make needed disable code for smoke panels as their functionality is not familiar to me.) - Hair weight brush has been removed. Once hair dynamics is re-implemented I'll code a more useable alternative to the functionality. Bug fixes: - Unlinking particle settings crashed. - Deleting the active object with particles in the scene crashed. - Softbody didn't write point caches correctly on save.

Point Cache Refactoring ======================= Caching and Baking: - The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates. - There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles. - The cloth autoprotect feature was removed. - The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries. - The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions. - PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type. - Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth. - Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now. Library Linking: - Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects. - Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked. - Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh). Physics UI: - Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth. - Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options. - Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable. - I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers. - Fixed modifier error drawing glitch. Particles: - Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() .. - Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading. - Make particle threads work with autothreads. Continue Physics: - The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache. - This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics. Todo: - Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it. - Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion. - Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B. - A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested. - The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.

There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions. - PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type. - Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth. - Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now. Library Linking: - Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects. - Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked. - Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh). Physics UI: - Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth. - Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options. - Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable. - I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers. - Fixed modifier error drawing glitch. Particles: - Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() .. - Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading. - Make particle threads work with autothreads. Continue Physics: - The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache. - This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics. Todo: - Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it. - Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion. - Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B. - A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested. - The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.

Pointcache refresh part 2 * Based on what happens during simulation the cache is marked (also in cache panel, this could possibly be extended to 3d view as well) as: - exact (not marked) - outdated (simulation is not done completely with current settings) - non-exact (frames were skipped during simulation) * The parameter "cache step" effects the number of frames between saved cache frames. - This can save a lot of memory (or disk space) if absolutely frame accurate simulation is not required. - Speeds up the "quick caching" very much. - Frames between cached frames are interpolated from the cached frames. - Current default value of 10 frames works nicely with up/down-arrows (skip 10 frames forwards/backwards on timeline), but can be changed if wanted. * The caching can work in normal or "quick" mode: [Normal cache] - Basic: Calculate what even happens (settings change, big frame steps etc.) and cache results, if possible try to use "cache step" when saving cache frames. - Becomes non-exact: After larger than 1 frame steps. - Becomes outdated: After any change effecting the simulation other than frame steps. - Pros/cons: Freedom of doing anything and playing with particles, but exact results have to calculated from the beginning. [Quick cache] - Basic: Calculate simulation up to current frame automatically on changes with cache step sized jumps in simulation. With multiple "quick cached" simulations the smallest cache step is used. - Becomes non-exact: Always from frame 1 (unless cache step = 1). - Becomes outdated: Never. - Pros/cons: Not very accurate, but super fast! - Todo: Transform of any animated (non-autokeyed) object is locked! Probably needs some tinkering with anim sys overrides. * The simulation can be run forwards or backwards even if it's cache is outdated or non-exact, the following rules apply in these situations: - step forwards (to unknown) -> simulate from last exact frame, store result - step backwards (to known) -> result is interpolated from existing frames, store result, clear cache forwards if current frame is after last exact frame * "Calculate to current frame" runs the simulation from start to current frame with a frame steps of 1. - Baking does the same, but runs the simulation all the way to the end of simulation. - Rendering does this automatically if the simulation is outdated of non-exact, so all rendered simulations will always be updated and exact. * Every cache panel also holds buttons to "Bake all dynamics", "Free all dynamics" and "Update all dynamics to current frame". * Cloth simulation supports the new cache too.

Point cache editing: - Baked point caches for particles, cloth and softbody can now be edited in particle mode. * This overwrites the old cloth/sb cache editmode editing. * The type of editable system is chosen from a menu. * For particles the current particle system and it's current cache are used. - Currently this only works for caches that are in memory, but some automatic conversion from disk to memory and back can be implemented later. - All tools from hair editing can't be applied to point caches and are hidden in the tool panel and specials menu.

Daniel can you check on this? - As "particle mode" is not only for particles any more some other name would be in place? - Better icons are needed for the path, point, and tip-modes as the current icons from mesh edit mode are quite misleading. - Direct editing of point velocities is not yet implemented, but will be in the future. Other changes: - Hair editing doesn't require a "make editable" button press any more. - Multiple caches in single particle system disables changing emission properties. - Unified ui code for all point cache panels. * Defined in buttons_particle.py and imported for cloth, smoke & softbody. - Proper disabling of properties in ui after baking point caches.

External cache Particle point cache can now be loaded from external files. - Activated by "external" checkbox in cache panel and giving proper folder path and file name identifier. - External cache panel has controls for particle emission start, end, lifetime and random lifetime. These should be set according to the external data for correct playback. - External files should be named "identifier_frame_index.bphys" or "identifier_frame.bphys" where: * "identifier" is a freely choseable name. * "frame" is the cached frame number. ** Six digits padded with zeros!, for example "000024". * "index" can be used to tell caches with the same identifier apart. ** Two digits starting from zero. ** The index and the underscore before are optional. If no index is present the index number in ui should be set to -1. - Cache file format is pure floating point numbers (in binary, not text!) with each particle's data one after the other with the following data members: * 3 floats: particle's location vector * 3 floats: particle's velocity vector (per second) * 4 floats: particle's rotation quaternion * 3 floats: particle's angular velocity vector (per second) * 1 float: frame of the actual data (this can be non-integer for particles that are born or die between two integer frames, but otherwise should be the same as the "frame" in the file name) - Cache files don't have to exist for each frame. * Frames without actual data are interpolated from surrounding frames that have data (extrapolation is not supported). - Cache file formats with extended (or reduced even) data members are in future plans for easier usage. - Current code only does particles, don't yet know if it's applicable to cloth or sb. - Known issue: endianness can't yet be handled in any way. Other changes: New hard limits for many particle parameters. Some examples: - Maximum amount of particles: 10M particles :) And before you all go and crash your Blender trying this out remember that this limit is only for those freaks who really have the machine power to handle it. 10M particles alone take around 2.2 Gb of memory / disk space in saved file and each cached frame takes around 0.5 Gb of memory / disk space depending on cache mode. * Known issue: To actually use this many particles they most likely need to be allocated in parts as taking hold of a 2.2Gb chunk of memory at once is probably not ok with any operating system. - Maximum amount of children: 100k children/particle (1T childparticles here we come :D) - Kink frequency: -100k to 100k half-rotations (really strange the previous limit was only from zero upwards) - Path draw steps: 10 (power of 2 remember) - Path render steps: 20 (power of 2 also!! If over 1M segments doesn't get you smooth paths then I think nothing will!)
