* Path drawing now works for non hair particles.
* Should fix the following bugs too:
[#21316] Hair weight drawing is wrong
[#21923] Consistent Crash When Rendering Particle Scene.
[#21950] Path rendering option for particles causes crash
Now, rather than the bit-too-alarming stop sign, threaded wmJobs
display a progress indicator in the header. This is an optional feature
for each job type and still uses the same hardcoded ui template
(could use further work here...).
Currently implemented for:
Render - parts completed, then nodes comped
Compositor - nodes comped
Fluid Sim - frames simulated
Texture Bake - faces baked
Example: http://mke3.net/blender/devel/2.5/progress.mov
* Division by zero fix for TNT SVD code.
* Sound fix, in case ffmpeg decode fails, don't use the samples.
* Fix for incorrect bounds of transformed objects in new raytracing code.
* Gave memory arena's a name used for allocations for easier memory
usage debugging.
* Dupligroup no_draw option was using layers but not restrict view/render
setting. (not a bugfix exactly but would do display list context switching
while drawing for no reason).
* Fix objects instanced on hair particles not giving consistent results
when the object is transformed.
* New math functions: madd_v4_v4fl, len_squared_v3v3, interp_v4_v4v4v4,
mul_v4_m4v4, SH and form factor functions, box_minmax_bounds_m4.
* mul_m4_m4m4 and mul_m3_m3m3 now accept the same pointers for multiple
arguments.
* endjob callback for WM jobs system.
* Geometry node uv/color layer now has search list/autocomplete.
* Various small buildsystem tweaks, not strictly needed yet in trunk.
- library data allows pointcache writing (hard to know how this should work long term so ifdef'd for now)
- changing the frame now updates the dupligroup objects
- BKE_ptcache_ids_from_object(), option to get the id's from duplis
note! scene_update_tagged() is called from the main() loop, and runs BKE_ptcache_quick_cache_all(), this could become a performance issue, especially with duplis, should probably not call BKE_ptcache_quick_cache_all() all the time, even when not playing back animation.
(commits 27856 by Campbell from render25 branch)
This commit restores fluid sim baking functionality in 2.5, it's been on the todo for
a while, and was previously almost completely non-functional. The old
code was quite complicated and specific to the 2.4 animation system, so I've
pretty much rewritten most of it.
This includes:
* Animated variables work again - just key them in the UI. Non-animateable values
should be already set non-animateable in RNA, hopefully I got them all.
Available are: Domain Gravity / Domain Viscosity / Object loc/rot/scale /
Object initial velocity / Deforming meshes / Fluid control Attract strength /
Fluid control Attract radius / Fluid control Velocity strength /
Fluid control Velocity radius / Object Active status (checkbox next to fluid type)
The Domain time scale is still not yet implemented.
* Fluid sim now use global scene units data by default - when enabled, the
scene's global gravity value is used and when units are set (metric/imperial)
the simulation real world size is taken from the object's actual measurements.
* The baking process is now done in the background, using the nifty threaded
Jobs system. It's non-blocking and your domain object will show the simulated
fluid as it becomes available for that frame.
A nice extra thing for the future would be to improve the visualisation of the
object's state while baking, and also the jobs system/ui could do with some
touchups - currently it has to share a bit from the 'render' job, and appears as
'Render' in the header. Progress bars for jobs in the header would be great too.
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
Really not much to fix, since it's just not supposed to work. Removed the non-working
brushes (add and puff) from the brush list while hair is disconnected.
* Smoke got it's own thread loop now and can be esc'ed now
* Apple OpenMP bug workaround until they fix the GCC (couldn't test this one)
* removing some "static" keyword to prevent crashing on frame display
* should also fix problems with wavelet.noise crashing (Bug #20710)
Fluid:
* sleep delay has been reduced to be more responsive
* Fluid progress is displayed in percent using the mouse cursor (like smoke)
Limit selection was totally broken (border select, circle select etc) because the depth function was using the view matrix multiplied by the object matrix.
I couldnt find any case where this was needed, but take care when using data->mats.modelview from particle mode edit tools.
this is too arbitrary and could break if roperty order is changed.
store the property in the operator type that is to be used for menu and enum search func's.
python function for searching operator enums on invoke. (just need dynamic python enums now)
wm.invoke_search_popup(self)
- particle set weight operator (Shift + K) and from the menu.
- mirror vertex groups operator can also flip weight group names.
a number of utility functions for weight groups added
int *get_defgroup_flip_map(struct Object *ob);
void flip_vertexgroup_name (char *name_r, const char *name, int strip_number); // moved from modifier.c
void copy_defvert (struct MDeformVert *dvert_r, const struct MDeformVert *dvert);
void flip_defvert (struct MDeformVert *dvert, int *flip_map);
When combing long hair it will often end up with no volume (flat on the head like its wet).
a way to fix this is to use the puff tool however when applied points at the root only this just gives a bit of volume at the roots and the rest of the hair stays flat.
This option moves the unselected parts of the hair without applying the puff tool to them, giving volume to the hair whilst preserving the desired style.
the emitter field wasnt recalculated on entering on editmode.
this meant you could use the puff brush in particle edit, move mesh verts, go back into particle edit... And the mesh data from the previous mesh would still be used.
Fix# 20043 & 20392
The issue is that OSX lib does not implement TLS (Thread Local Storage), so libgomp uses pthread functions to read/write thread specific vars.
But this implementation is currently (gcc 4.2) buggy : the write function is called only at lib start (in main thread), and the var is undefined for background thread.
The workaround is to perform this gomp_tls_key var write at beginning of background threads that use openMP. (Currently: render & fluidsim)
