* Grid distribution isn't really suited for hair, so this is now disabled.
* Setting a jittered distribution with particles/face = 1 now creates particles on the center of faces.
* Quite a bit of cleanup of the whole particle distribution code.
problem and crash
- It turns out we still need the "copyob" still, if for nothing other
than making sure that the unkeyed transforms can get restored. This
was removed originally as I thought that just reevaluating the
animation would work.
- Removed a buggy line of logic that was causing crashes when there
was no animation data. It's better to just assume that if animation
data exists, that something exists there.
- Make Duplicates Real was not clearing data such as the new animation
data or constraints.
So, it turns out that dupliframes weren't that bad to restore... the
old version didn't do truly accurate transform freezing as it didn't
update ancestors too. However, as a modelling tool, this will probably
suffice.
- use NULL rather then 0 where possible (makes code & function calls more readable IMHO).
- set static variables and functions (exposed some unused vars/funcs).
- use func(void) rather then func() for definitions.
* Particle duplis are now always created with render percentage if G.rendering is set.
* This is not yet a perfect solution (hair for example won't yet work correctly), but
it's good to have even partial functionality here until a proper way to handle this
is implemented.
* After countless different bugs particles should now render correctly inside dupligroups.
* Only particles with metaball visualization are still problematic, this is mostly due to the ancient metaball code.
* I'll also add a test file for some of the situations, so that hopefully these cases stay fixed :)
Surprising this wasnt noticed in a much more obvious case:
- Key Location, Move, Rotate, Undo-Rotate >> Resets to keyed location as well.
This was happening because DAG_on_load_update() was called on read_undosave(), flagging 'ob->adt->recalc |= ADT_RECALC_ANIM;'
Fix by adding an option to DAG_on_load_update(), not to recalculate time flags.
This would have made bug #25003 very simple to find.
- Objects had their quats normalized when calculating their matrix, this is inconstant with pose bones and isn't useful for animation.
Also it wasn't normalizing the delta rotation so these would give bad rotations.
- Converting between rotation modes BKE_rotMode_change_values() assumed normal length quat. changing quat to euler rotation for eg could change the bone.
- Clear rotation and transform were not normalizing the quat when 4d loc was disabled on quat rotation, corrected and also made it so the quat scale is restored after conversion so animations curves dont jump.
There is 1 case in mat3_to_quat_is_ok() where quat_to_mat3 on an unnormalized quat is needed, for this I had to add an ugly static function quat_to_mat3_no_assert(), but overall its worthwhile IMHO to be able to find incorrect use of rotation conversion.
- removed deprecated bitmap arg from IMB_allocImBuf (plugins will need updating).
- mostly tagged UNUSED() since some of these functions look like they may need to have the arguments used later.
Fix#21498: Edit curve Shape key /252_r 27318
Added full support of shape keys for curves and nurbs surfaces including
topology changing in edit mode, undo stuff, updating relative keys when
working under basis and so on.
- if a group has one or more objects in it, it gets a refcount of 1 on load (unchanged from before)
- dupli-groups, and materials no longer add/remove a reference.
- now groups are only freed when they contain no objects or when manually unlinked.
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
[#21994] hair particle system with dupli object set to particle system object itself results in 100% cpu usage
[#22023] [Rev 28117]Can't bake particles?
[#22065] in a particle system, setting the emitter as the dupli object crashes blender after pressing alt+a to animate
This works by tricking the depsgraph into giving us a smaller list of objects to evaluate, with all the necessary objects + their dependencies at the start of the list.
On any complicated setup where non-object parameters need to be referred to (i.e. by drivers) to affect an object's transform, these optimisations will fail and the old (slower) method is still the best way (modify the ifdef and comment out the optimise depsgraph call to do so). However, we'll assume that these aren't too common in real productions, so things should be fine with these fixes. If there really is a need for both, then global options to control these things could follow.
* 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.
dupliverts. The flag mode & OB_MODE_EDIT only indicates that
this object is being edited by the user, not if the mesh is
in editmode or not, it should check for the existence of
me->edit_mesh. Also corrected two other places for this.
mask, also avoid making vertex groups if they will not be filled.
* Add back image pin option in image editor header.
* Fix deep shadow not respecting Cast Buffer Shadows option.
* Tangent space normal map baking should work again now.
* Fix a problem with particle duplis, due to own bugfix for #20350,
the problem for that seems to be in dupliverts, not particles.
* Fix external multires data link getting lost on exiting editmode.
(commits 27776,27777,27830,27840,27841,27862 by Brecht from render25 branch)
This commit removes the Old Track method (used to be found under Object -> Animation -> Track), with all existing instances of this being converted to Track To Constraints. In fact, while performing this removal, I found that this was supposed to have happened in version 2.27 already, but for some reason the options were left in, and this function managed to survive for a further decade.
I've left the tracking axes around still, since it seems some curve tools still use that. However, that usage should probably get faded out in future too?
Misc notes:
* Fixed compiling error with constaints from harkyman's Maintain Volume patch.
* Subversion of 2.52 now bumped up to .2
Revised the conditions under which motion paths get recalculated after transforms (when auto-keying is enabled). Now, the type of path display does not matter, but rather that the object/bone in question has any paths at all. This makes animating with these a much smoother experience.
This commit makes the new-style Motion Paths work for Objects and Bones. Motion Paths can either be added for Objects (Object buttons) or for Selected Bones in PoseMode (Armature Buttons), and/or removed from these panels too.
Changes:
* Changed the way the baking code worked, since it was better to be able to bake a bunch of objects at once, instead of doing it per object
* Fixed a variety of bugs regarding initialising defaults and reading old files
* Added operators for Objects (like for bones), and replaced the existing code for bones.
* Fixed bug with baking code that was causing it to bake the wrong ranges
Todos:
* Frame number drawing is currently messed up, since the "cached" text drawing takes into account the object transforms.
* The new MotionPath panels currently appear as the first panels in the respective contexts, probably due to the order in which the files are included. This needs some fixing, though not sure what the best way is yet.
