Note sure what to do with this one, and personally think
we should avoid using macros for this kind of thing:
V_GROW(edges);
source/blender/editors/mesh/loopcut.c:232: warning: value computed is not used
- Hair dynamics have their own panel in particle settings with the settings from cloth panel that apply to hair.
- Basic internal friction force to quickly emulate self collisions and volume preservation. (Still very early code, but gives some idea of what's possible).
- Softbody simulation is no longer used for hair.
* Old files with sb dynamics should just load the hair without dynamics so new dynamics can be applied.
* Invasion of particles exceptions in sb code is finally over.
- Collisions with other objects are disabled for now and will be worked out in the future.
Other changes/fixes:
- Particle mode editing flag wasn't saved properly.
- Some old files with edited hair didn't load correctly.
- Disabled delete & specials menu in particle mode for non-hair editing.
- Fixed yet one more cloth & softbody pointcache update issue.
- Disconnect/connect hair now uses only the deformed mesh so it works correctly also for subsurfed emitters.
- Hair editing now updates correctly with a moving emitter.
* 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- outdated (simulation is not done completely with current settings)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- Becomes outdated: After any change effecting the simulation other than frame steps.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.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
* in scene.c in blenkernel, set_last_seq (defined in src - editseq.c) is called... this may/may not need some stubs for game-engine stuff
* removed unused vars due to old particle-effects stuff
* initial values I added in radialcontrol.c might need to be reviewed if they cause problems(I used 200, as it seems many tools were setting that)
* #pragma warnings are the only warnings I still get, so that means we have a clean slate again
