- updated python24.zip to include all required module dependancies.
- updated zlib.pyd to py24 zlib.pyd - now it opens the zip file (thanks ianwill!)
- removed whrandom module from basic_modules (deprecated in py24)
- Discombobulator by Evan R and DirectX8 Exporter by Ben Omari.
BPython:
- Crashed Blender while testing discombobulator: obj.setMaterials() was not checking if the passed obj had valid obj->data. If the object had been created and not linked yet to a mesh, a crash would happen when trying to sync ob and me material lists. Now an error is returned. Also made obj.setMaterials accept an empty list, since obj.getMaterials can return that.
Thanks to the script authors for the updated versions and special thanks to Tom (LetterRip) for collecting info about updated and new scripts, sending me updates I had missed, etc.
- updating some bundled scripts, thanks to authors Jean-Michel Soler, Campbell Barton and Anthony D'Agostino.
BPython:
- removing wrong fix from BGL.c's glDrawPixels.
note: applied guitargeek's setName patch to Blender.Key, but saw that he updated it with more functionality and assigned to stivs, so I won't commit this old version.
- Jean-Michel Soler: 1) paths import -- ai module; 2) tex2uvbaker;
- Campbell Barton: obj exporter.
BPython:
- Campbell also provided a patch (+docs) to add shader data access to Blender.Material.
Again, thanks guys and sorry for the long delay.
- Jean-Michel Soler: paths import -- ai and svg modules;
- Jean-Baptiste PERIN: bvh to armatures (note: should not work until we re-wrap armatures in bpython);
- Campbell Barton: obj importer.
Thanks guys, excuse me the delay.
- tiny doc update.
- Jean-Michel Soler updated his paths importer (svg part) -- ongoing work related to this bug report by intrr:
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=2674&group_id=9
- small doc update in paths import about some imported curves needing "enter edit mode, select all points, toggle cyclic (press 'c')" to show up correctly;
- old vrml 2 exporter's menu name and tooltip updated to clarify that it is the old version, soon to be removed (in favor of the already included vrml 97 update by Bart). Also prints a msg about it to the console when used.
Thanks all.
- #2646 reported by Campbell: Python/Fileselector (moving from fileselector called by script to another space caused script to hang around open but not accessible)
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=2646&group_id=9
- #2676 reported by Wim Van Hoydonck: 2.37 python scripts gui: event 8 ignored (thanks Ton for discussing / pointing what to do, Ken Hughes for also working on a fix)
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=2676&group_id=9
- gui-less scripts with calls to progress bar inside fileselector callbacks didn't return to the previous space on exit (staying on Scripts win), requiring an event to do so (mouse movement, for example). Quick fix for now, will rework a little after 2.37a for a better alternative, not needing to move to the Scripts win at all.
- added syntax colors access to Window.Theme module.
Scripts:
- updates by Jean-Michel Soler: svg2obj (svg paths import), tex2uvbaker, fixfromarmature;
- updates by Campbell Barton: obj import / export, console;
- tiny: converted vrml97 export to unix line endings;
- updates in ac3d exporter, help browser, save theme.
Thanks all mentioned above.
Fixes:
- naming of Transform instead of Shape node
X3D exporter: line 431 and 432
VRML exporter: line 430 and 433
- wrong import of modules in the X3D exporter
line 72
Scripts:
- license info for camera changer (thanks Tom for pointing), made it GPL since it's stricter and so can be "downgraded" w/o problems, but emailed the author to confirm and if necessary will fix before release.
- adding Discombobulator by Evan J. Rosky (in Mesh menu):
http://evan.nerdsofparadise.com/programs/discombobulator/index.html
This is a fun script to play with, giving quite interesting results. It's good for that "high-tech" look in buildings, spaceships and walls. Thanks Evan for contributing it. GUI should have further updates in the future, like an added "horizontal" layout. (Note: ignore mention in its online docs of a problem with edit mode, the script was fixed.)
- fixing bug reported by Paolo Colombo: space handler slinks set for a 3d view were not set when the area got maximized;
- Blender.Object: added object.isSB() method to know if an object is a soft body (has ob->soft != NULL). Used in fixfromarmature.py.
Scripts:
- updates: batch_name_edit (Campbell), fixfromarmature (JMS);
- additions:
X3D exporter by Bart;
Envelope Suite by Jonas Petersen;
BVH 2 Armature by Jean-Baptiste Perin;
Camera Changer by Regis Montoya (3R);
Interactive Console by Campbell (ideasman).
- tiny updates in other scripts.
- based on a request by Campbell (he also provided a patch for scene.Layer) access to layers was improved a little, keeping the old method (ob.Layers is a bitmask) and adding the nicer one (ob.layers is a list of ints). Done for objects and scenes. House-cleaning: .Layer was renamed to .Layers (actually just using strncmp instead of strcmp, so both work, same done for Window.ViewLayers).
- finally committing patch by Ken Hughes to let .clearScriptLinks() accept a parameter (list of strings) to clear only specified texts.
- doc updates and fixes (JMS reported a problem in nmesh.transform() example code).
Thanks all who contributed.
It seemed trivial enough, so I updated all systems (makefiles, xcode, scons, scons win installer), please complain if something went wrong. Mostly it was just removing release/bpydata references, since the release/scripts dir is already worked on recursevely, handling dirs inside it.
For the scons nsi file writer script I had to write code for each new dir, but it can be recoded recursively, too (in fact joining all release stuff in a single dir tree with nothing else would be a good idea, making installation code simpler). Since it's just python and I have a little more time now, I can help scons managers if they still need.
Thanks Campbell Barton for reporting.
Scripts:
- Thanks Jean-Michel Soler (jms) for updated versions of dispaint, fixfromarmature and unweld (also renamed to remove version part).
- Thanks Bart for the upgraded VRML exporter (great doc webpage!). It is available as VRML 97 and the original VRML 2 is for now still there, to help users testing the new version. For the next release the old one should be removed, of course.
- New script: Scripts Config Editor (Scripts win -> Scripts -> System). Scripts with config options (simple data that is to be set according to user needs or preferences) can use this facility instead of providing a gui and writing config files to disk themselves.
- Added new menu: System, available in the Scripts win.
- Updated sys_info.py, help_browse.py and the AC3D importer and exporter.
- Removed use of the Scrollbar and added arrow keys and mouse wheel support instead in Daniel Dunbar's old doc_browser.py. The scrollbar events handling doesn't exist, Ton suggested removing the scrollbar from the API months ago. For now its ref doc is gone and no bundled script uses it, until we get time to implement it properly.
- Added module BPyRegistry.py with functions to handle reading / writing config files automatically to the scripts/bpydata/config dir.
- Removing dir release/bpydata and its contents (moved earlier to release/scripts/bpydata/)
- Bug #2379: made small changes to bevel_center's ui to fix a problem reported by Alexander Ewering (intrr):
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=2379&group_id=9
BPython:
- Thanks Campbell Barton for new functionality: Blender.Get() now can also return all the paths from the user prefs -> file paths win and there is a new function: Blender.sys.expandpath() to transform Blender paths (those starting with '//' and ending with '#') to absolute paths.
- Added function Blender.ShowHelp(), to open the Scripts Help Browser with a given help page -- just a time saver for scripts.
- Improved function Blender.Run() to also work with gui and file select scripts.
- Found a (new?) crash related to NMesh.PutRaw when creating a new object while in edit mode. Leaving / entering edit mode fixes the problem, so a check for obj created, edit mode and leaving / re-entering it were added to the code for now (gdb didn't help much, no backtrace)
- doc updates, including splitting intro page in two, with bpython related stuff (registering / documenting / configuring scripts and command line mode (thanks Chris Want for "use system variables to pass parameters to scripts" idea).
- Registry: functions have been updated to support writing to / reading from disk, for the config editor -- only simple config data supported, for large amounts coders should write to a file themselves. This is done with a new parameter: Registry.GetKey(keyname, True) will also search for the key on the config dir, if not already loaded; equiv. for Registry.SetKey(keyname, dict, True). Data is only written to / read from disk when needed and only scripts already used (assuming they support this functionality) will have config data saved.
- moved bpydata/ to scripts/bpydata/ and added a config/ subdir to it;
- created scripts/bpymodules for py modules (also got rid of those "mod_"'s appended to the files);
- updated scripts accordingly.
This will require you to "reinstall" (just copy the scripts/ dir over your older one) if you have a .blender/scripts/ dir somewhere. Otherwise some scripts won't work. You can use the updated "Help->System->System Information" script here to check all is fine. An installer script yet to be written will help users with these issues, specially to make the user defined dir have the same structure expected from the default scripts dir, so the basic facilities (module search; saved config data; scripts: installer, help browser, config editor) are also available for a user's own collection of written and downloaded scripts.
BPython:
- slikdigit's crash was because he had no <home or blender exe location>/.blender/:
proper check added and also now if all else fails the <cvsblender>/release/scripts/ dir is also searched for scripts. All this registration dirs stuff is a little messy (installation!), so please report any troubles (I only tested on linux).
- slight change in error report in BPY_interface.c's BPY_menu_do_python; remembering to set globaldict pointer to NULL there, too.
- moved bpy_gethome() to EXPP_interface.[ch]
- "//" as user defined python dir is ignored while looking for scripts, considering it's only a default some users use, not really meant for a scripts dir.
- Scripts:
fixed error in "Save Current Theme" which prevented it from automatically updating script registration in menus.
cosmetic changes in a couple of Campbell's sel_same.py script strings + more descriptive name for its new menu place (3d view, face mode -> select menu).
small updates to help_browser.py script.
The above changes are related to this:
- Added new script menu entries: Render (for exporters to renderers), Themes, FaceSelect (this already at the proper place). Updated Scripts win->Scripts menu so it won't show all available entries, only the ones we mean to see there.
- Updated menu registration so that scripts folders can become trees. The release/scripts/ dir should be updated soon with subdirs like converters/, modifiers/, generators/ or whatever -- better discuss first (or is it? /me afraid of long irc discussions during meetings :) ).
- Modules:
Blender: added 'udatadir' option to .Get() function and added var Blender.mode to tell if Blender is in bg or interactive mode.
NMesh: added Campbell's nmesh.transform(matrix, recalc_normals = False) method (reworked, so my fault if it doesn't work).
- Bugs fixed:
#2123: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=2123&group_id=9
Reported by Ken Hughes (thanks!), who also found the exact problem later (it was in Text.Load, not with script links -- if only I had checked emails these days ... lost > 1 hour today to find the problem: passed filename to M_Text_Load was later being written over by a function called by add_text). Also saw that Text.Load wasn't checking existence of passed filename (duh!), now it does.
#1655: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=1655&group_id=9
Reported by Chris Want (thanks!): command line "blender -P script" not working properly for bg mode ("blender -b blendfile -P script").
Had to make some small updates to get it working (bg mode for scripts was never explicitely handled, it worked due to collateral effects, let's say), interested readers can check the report after I update it or the API_intro.py doc file. After more testing we can make further updates. Updated many places to not call redraws if in bg mode, now it is officially available. Blender outputs its own info when rendering in bg mode, if that is considered a nuissance we'll have to add a few "if (during_script())" calls outside bpython.
- Removed a few warnings here and there and also updated docs.
- Stephane Soppera added long missed support for edge data in Blender.NMesh + related doc;
- Michael Reimpell improved script registration (fixes bug report #2160) and the file and image selectors in Blender.Window (improved with suggestions from Yann Vernier). They now suppport methods as callbacks;
- World.get/setMode were not registered, so could not be directly called (reported by Ken Hughes). Still needs some work to improve things, including docs.
Scripts:
- Jean-Michel Soler updated his texture baker based on input from Appolux;
- Campbell and Jean-Michel improved the bvh importer: faster, better float units scaling (by Campbell); supports Poser 3.01 files (by jms).
Thanks guys!
- Added Blender.UpdateMenus() + doc: so scripts can automatically update Blender menus when they create (or download or whatever) new scripts to be registered.
- Removed a long deprecated function from the Blender module (release dict).
Matt (broken) mentioned the UpdateMenus function a couple weeks ago. I also updated the Save Current Theme script to use it. This is all related to his ideas to use scripts to save and restore themes and e.g. render presets.
- Fixes by Jean-Michel Soler: mod_ai2obj.py, mod_svg2obj.py;
- Fixes by Campbell Barton: obj_import.py;
- Small fix to mod_meshtools.py (fixes bug #1605: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=1605&group_id=9);
- Updates by Jean-Baptiste (Jiba) to his blender2cal3d.py;
- Updates to all his import / export scripts (added doc data) by Anthony D'Agostino;
- Update to off_import: support for uv data, by Arne Schmitz.
BPython:
- Removed Object.get and .getSelected (deprecated long ago, we use .Get and .GetSelected) -- fixes#1861: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=1861&group_id=9
- Applied patch by Michael Reimpell: quat.c - fix for wrong initialization with newQuaternionObject; Mathutils documentation improvements.
- Stani reported a wrong return msg in IpoCurve.Get (that is unimplemented).
Thanks to all coders mentioned above!
- Small doc update in a script;
- Fixed bug #1742:
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=125&aid=1742&group_id=9
It was an internal error in bpython. I was using G.main->script.last to find the currently running (if any) script, but this isn't reliable, we must check each open script to find out if one of them has the SCRIPT_RUNNING bitflag set.
Thanks intrr for reporting and blendix for pointing how to reproduce the bug. From my tests it should be working fine now.
-- adding help_browser.py to show help for installed scripts;
-- updated scripts to include basic doc info to be shown with above script:
script authors can / will / should update with more info, of course;
-- updated some scripts to newer versions: disp_paint, fixfromarmature, hotkeys, etc.
- small updates to the docs;
- Object: small fix to getMatrix: check during_script() to avoid undesired loops; added old behavior (pre 2.34) as option: .getMatrix('oldlocal');
- tentative fix for bug #1275: scene REDRAW scriptlinks were not being executed (the call to do so was missing):
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1275&group_id=9&atid=125
added the call in drawview.c, in drawview3dspace(). This causes the scriptlink to be called for each visible view3d, but that's what happens with object redraw scriptlinks, too. Anyway, this is still a test. The place was chosen based on the idea that a scene redraw scriptlink is like an object redraw one, but for all objs in the scene at once.
- Window.Theme: new submodule, to get/set theme options in Blender;
- Added the script save_theme.py (Help menu for now), to save the current theme in Blender as an executable script (currently shown in the Scripts->Misc menu).
There's more work to do for themes, like defining a proper place for them in the interface, adding documentation (for now the added script and the ones it generates can give a pretty good idea of how to use the new module), probably extending themes to support SpaceScript and so on.
Scripts:
Campbell Barton (Ideasman, thanks) updated his Wavefront OBJ importer.
BPython:
- Finally committed pending contributions:
Chris Keith wrote the Blender.Sound module -- still some testing to do this week;
Joseph (joeedh) added the OnLoad scene script event;
Satish Goda added 6 GLU functions to Blender.BGL. Great additions, thanks all!
- Small changes to Blender.Load (leave editmode as Blender wants) and Window.EditMode (allow definition of "undo string");
- Fixed bug #1539: Window.RedrawAll() crashed Blender if an empty spacescript was available while using it in a gui-less script.
- doc updates.
Scripts:
- Jean-Michel Soler probably lost some hours of sleep since Sunday,
but he managed to send me the updated path import scripts a few
hours ago. My tests with Inkscape .svg and .ps and Gimp worked fine.
He also tested a lot and sent me info about what is already
supported. I'll send Ton a doc about bundled scripts including this
info. Importers: .ai, .svg, .eps/.ps, Gimp 1-1.2.5 / 2.0.
- Jean-Michel also contributed his Texture Baker script.
- Campbell Barton contributed two new scripts: a mesh cleaner and a
vloop skinning / lofting script. He also sent updates to his obj
import / export ones.
- A Vanpoucke (xand) contributed his Axis Orientation Copy script.
And that makes 8 last minute additions. Thanks a lot to the authors
and special thanks to JMS and Campbell for their hard work : ).
BPython:
- tiny addition (I'm forced to call it a showstopper bug ;) so JMS's
path import scripts (that actually convert to obj and make Blender
load the .obj curves) can use Blender.Load() and not rename G.sce,
the default filename. Blender.Load(filename, 1) doesn't update G.sce.
Nothing should break because of this, Load(filename) still works fine.
- Made Blender complain again if script is for a newer Blender version than the one running it.
- making Blender not warn about 2.34 scripts, as Ton requested. Will turn this on again before release;
- small fix to the new helpwebsites and helpsystem additions in BPy_menus.c, should solve problem reported by Jean-Luc Peurière about empty menus on startup;
- updated version info of a few scripts to 2.34, since they use recently added bpython api functions.
Thanks to Willian for integrating the webbrowser module.
Some of the URLs (Python reference, Release notes) will
need to be updated upon release. These are contained in
http://www.blender3d.org/Help/index.php
- Campbell Barton updated his sel_same.py script;
- Added to Mesh scripts a call to Window.EditMode(0) to leave editmode before changing meshes.
BPython:
- small doc fixes / updates;
- added a call to undo_push_mesh inside Window.EditMode(0).
Mesh scripts could change the mesh but not the editmesh -- that would then overwrite the changed mesh. Made all mesh scripts leave edit mode before changing a mesh.
