* Made sculpt mode local to object.
* This also fixes loading files from 2.4x saved in sculptmode
Touched a lot of things here, let me know if anything breaks
TODO:
* The other paint modes should be converted as well
Integration is still very rough around the edges and WIP, but it works, and can render smoke (using new Smoke format in Voxel Data texture) --> http://vimeo.com/6030983
More to come, but this makes things much easier to work on for me :)
- Correct fix for file loading crash introduced by earlier point cache commit.
- Simulations are no longer calculated to current frame at render time automatically.
* This has to be thought through more carefully at some point, perhaps through render profiles.
* All simulations can be updated manually to current frame from any cache panel with the "update all to current frame" button.
- Some explanatory comments added for BKE_pointcache.h.
Removed BKE_ptcache_ids_from_object() from readfile.c do_versions,
this cannot work... IDs are not set for versioning. Will need to go
over this with janne what he actually wants to achieve here...
This solves crash on startup of Blender. Tsk!
- 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.
* That also means you can't really change them and save it before we actually do a do_version.
* Marking the old variables in DNA_world_types.h to be removed.
* Tools such as set handle type, etc. were not being called correctly from the menus. There were missing operator-context calls to make sure that the invoke methods would get skipped.
* Hack for loading old files - buttons region for Graph Editor now gets added. Dunno why this didn't work automatically as for NLA despite the two having the same code.
a) Crash fixed when loading files with smoke
b) changed presets to be more low-cpu friendly
c) smoke looks thicker
Unsolved:
a) 3dview of smoke changes weirdly when looking at front/back. Just move around a cube with smoke and you know what I mean - odd shading. If someone likes to take a look: draw_object.c -> search for "smoke" there
Not working:
a) rendering (since volumterics branch is not merged yet)
b) moving collision objects of any kind
c) saving of collision objects (because that's what I am working on)
d) pointcache
e) A bunch of other things I already know of
So please do not report any bugs on this one yet :-)
* When resizing the window, the top position is now preserved,
instead of the center position.
* Fix zoom level not being preserved in various cases, when
changing both with and height. This replaces some earlier code
which did this at screen level but wasn't very reliable.
* Different tabs now each preserve their own scroll.
* When switching between tabs, it now scrolls to show as many
buttons as possible, instead of possibly showing empty space.
There is a trade-off here between doing that keeping the
buttons in the same place, no ideal solution exists I think.
* Change zooming in/out to be symmetric, for example doing
numpad + then - did not give the original zoom level back.
* Added some calls to avoid hanging tooltips when manipulating
the view.
Internals:
* Added V2D_KEEPOFS_X and V2D_KEEPOFS_Y to keep the top/bottom
rather than the center.
* Renamed V2D_KEEPZOOM to V2D_LIMITZOOM (seems more appropriate),
and make V2D_KEEPZOOM preserve the zoom level.
- It is possible to work with MetaBalls in edit mode now
- Added basic UI to the button window (feel free to change it :-))
- Header menus should work
- Undo & redo should work
- Removed global variable editelems and lastelem (moved it to the MetaBall struct)
- All tools from old editmball.c was converted to the operators
- Added lastelem to the RNA
- Experimental: mb->editelems is only pointer at mb->elems or NULL (depends on Mode). ListBase of MetaElems is not duplicated in edit mode.
Tested with scons at Linux and mac OS X
TODO:
- Recalc data after Undo or Redo
- Solve issue with basic MetaBall and Python UI script (only base MetaBall object influence Wiresize and Threshold)
- Fix orientation of manipulator in "Normal mode"
* Diffuse/specular ramps works again.
* Wire is now a material type next to Surface and Halo.
* Removed Volume material type option until it is actually there.
* Some button layout tweaks.

* Fix crash loading particle AnimData. This crashed many BBB
files. If you have a .blend file that crashes when loading
it in 2.5, please mail me, I'd like to know.
* Image window zoom ratio did not work correct with py 2.x.
* Other minor fixes for image window RNA.
* Buttons window now remembers the tab that was last clicked
by the user, even if that tab is no longer available due
to context, and then enable the tab again if the context
for it is back.
* Cleaned up buttons space DNA a bit, removing unused vars.
* Armature bone rename outside edit mode did not call right
function yet.
* Armature layers are now editable even if lib linked. This
is useful for proxies. For this purpose a PROP_LIB_EXCEPTION
flag was added. Need to think over proxy / RNA a bit though,
not sure what the requirements are yet.
* Parent to Armature Deform now has options to create vertex
groups, instead of always creating them.
Patch by Alfredo de Greef. Considerably improves the quality of bump
mapping, and texture filtering for displacement and warp too. Mainly
this is achieved by getting the texture derivatives just right in
various cases, many thanks to Alfredo for figuring this one out, works
great.
This is enabled by default now, but disabled still for existing
textures to preserve backwards compatibility. Can be enabled with
the "New Bump" option in the material texture slot in the outliner.
Also, I made the range for the normal factor a bit smaller since this
gives stronger effects, but note that you can still type in larger
values than the slider allows.
Patch by Alfredo de Greef with high quality image texture filters.
This adds 3 new filters:
* SAT: Summed Area Tables. This is like mipmaps, but using somewhat
more memory avoids some artifacts.
* EWA: Ellipitical Weighted Average, anisotropic filter.
* FELINE: Fast elliptical lines for anisotropic texture mapping.
The one change I made to this was to try to fix an alpha/premul
problem, hopefully I didn't break anything, it looks compatible
with the existing filter now for me.
Too many new features to list! But here are the biggies:
- Boids can move on air and/or land, or climb a goal object.
- Proper interaction with collision objects.
* Closest collision object in negative z direction is considered as ground.
* Other collision objects are obstacles and boids collide with them.
- Boid behavior rules are now added to a dynamic list.
* Many new rules and many still not implemented.
* Different rule evaluation modes (fuzzy, random, average).
- Only particle systems defined by per system "boid relations" are considered for simulation of that system.
* This is in addition to the boids own system of course.
* Relations define other systems as "neutral", "friend" or "enemy".
- All effectors now effect boid physics, not boid brains.
* This allows forcing boids somewhere.
* Exception to this is new "boid" effector, which defines boid predators (positive strength) and goals (negative strength).
Known issue:
- Boid health isn't yet stored in pointcache so simulations with "fight" rule are not be read from cache properly.
- Object/Group visualization object's animation is not played in "particle time". This is definately the wanted behavior, but isn't possible with the current state of dupliobject code.
Other new features:
- Particle systems can now be named separately from particle settings.
* Default name for particle settings is now "ParticleSettings" instead of "PSys"
- Per particle system list of particle effector weights.
* Enables different effection strengths for particles from different particle systems with without messing around with effector group setting.
Other code changes:
- KDTree now supports range search as it's needed for new boids.
- "Keyed particle targets" renamed as general "particle targets", as they're needed for boids too. (this might break some files saved with new keyed particles)
Bug fixes:
- Object & group visualizations didn't work.
- Interpolating pointcache didn't do rotation.
(it's the 3rd commit in a row. But as they say, the 3rd is always a charm ;)
I still think we have a little mess with the DEFINE parameters in BGE (as in RAS_IRasterizer::StereoMode).
We used to have them duplicated and hardcoded in 2.4xx, but I think we can do it in another way now.
(I didn't change gameplayer, but I can do it once we have it linking and building properly)
Logic Panel:
- world settings (moved from world)
... that includes physic engine selection + gravity
- game player (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
- stereo/dome (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
... separated stereom into stereoflag and stereomode
- properties
... (didn't touch it)
Buttons Game Panel:
(wip panel)
- Physics (moved from Logic Panel)
... it will be a datablock in the future (right Campbell ?)
- Material Physics (not currently implemented)
... a datablock link to the materials of an object + the dynamic physic variables
* NOTE:
in readfile.c::do_version I couldn't do if(scene->world). There is something wrong with scenes with an unlinked world. So so far we are ignoring the old values....
- Set View2D operators not to register, got in the way a lot with the console.
- Made autocomplete Ctrl+Enter so Tab can be used.
- Should work with python 2.5 now. (patch from Vilda)
- Moved report struct definitions into DNA_windowmanager_types.h, could also have DNA_report_types.h however the reports are not saved, its just needed so the report list can be used in the wmWindowManager struct. Fixes a crash reported by ZanQdo.
- Store the report message length in the report so calculating the total height including word wrap is not so slow.
* interactive console python console.
* display reports and filter types. defaults to operator display so you can see the python commands for tools as you use them,
eventually it should be possible to select commands and make macto/tools from them.
Example use of autocomp. b<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.<tab>, bpy.data.<tab> etc.
basic instructions are printed when opening the console.
Details...
* Console exec and autocomp are done with operators written in python.
* added CTX_wm_reports() to get the global report list.
* The window manager had a report ListBase but reports have their own struct, switched to allocate and assign when initializing the WM since the type is not available in DNA.
* changed report types flags for easier display filtering.
* added report type RPT_OPERATOR
* logging operators also adds a python-syntax report into CTX_wm_reports() so they can be displayed in the console as well as calling a notifier for console to redraw.
* RnaAPI context.area.tag_redraw() to redraw the current area from a python operator.
Todo...
* better interactions with the console, scrolling, copy/paste.
* the text displayed doesnt load back.
* colors need to be themed.
* scroll limit needs to be a user pref.
* only tested with cmake and scons.
* Added basic infrastructure to layout user preferences. The
intention is that you open a user preferences space in place
of the buttons space, and have panels there.
* The existing sections don't have to be followed, it's easy
to create different ones, just change the user_pref_sections
enum in RNA.
* This will get separated from the info header later.
Notes:
- These may be taking up a bit too much room in some situations. Perhaps an option to turn these on/off is needed?
- I've added a quick hack in area.c -> ED_region_panels_init() to set the flags to make scrollbars show up in regions whose View2D data has already been initialised. This is primarily aimed at the Buttons Window in the 2.5 defaults file, which seems to have been saved in 2.5 or so
- The expand icons on either end of the scrollers don't really seem to be necessary? (or not working yet)
* UI layout for scene buttons has quite some changes, I tried to
better organize things according to the pipeline, and also showing
important properties by default, and collapsing less important ones.
Some changes compared to 2.4x:
* Panorama is now a Camera property.
* Sequence and Compositing are now enabled by default, but will only
do something when there is a node tree using nodes, or a strip in the
sequence editor.
* Enabling Full Sample now automatically enables Save Buffers too.
* Stamp option to include info in file is removed, it now simply always
does this if one of the stamp infos is enabled.
* Xvid, H.264 and Ogg Theora are now directly in the file format menu,
but still using FFMPEG. Unfortunately Ogg is broken at the moment
(also in 2.4x), so that's disabled. And Xvid crashes on 64bit linux,
maybe solvable by upgrading extern/xvidcore/, using ubuntu libs makes
it work.
* Organized file format menu by image/movie types.
Added:
* Render layers RNA wrapped, operatorized, layouted.
* FFMPEG format/codec options are now working.
Defaults changed:
* Compositing & Sequencer enabled.
* Tiles set to 8x8.
* Time/Date/Frame/Scene/Camera/Filename enabled for stamp.
* Objects now support up to 32767 material slots. It's easy to
increase this further, but I prefer not to increase the memory
usage of mesh faces, it seems unlikely that someone would
create 32767 distinct materials?
* Forward compatibility: the only thing you can potentially lose
reading a 2.5 file in 2.4 is object linking (instead of default
data), though usually that will go fine too. Reading files with
> 32 material slots in 2.4 can start giving issues.
* The ob->colbits variable is deprecated by the array ob->matbits
but I didn't remove the ob->colbits updates in very few places
it is set.
* I hope I changed all the relevant things, various places just
hardcoded the number 16 instead of using the MAXMAT define.
* Join Objects operator back. This is using the version from the
animsys2 branch coded by Joshua, which means it now supports
joining of shape keys.
* Fix for crash reading file saved during render.
- Keyed targets in one list instead of "chaining", this opens up many more possibilities than before and is much less obscure.
- Better keyed timing possibilities (time & duration in frames).
- Looping over keyed targets list.
Other changes:
- New child setting "length" with threshold (great for guard & underfur with a single particle system)
- Modularization of path interpolation code.
- Cleared "animateable" flags from many particle settings that shouldn't be animateable.
Fixes:
- Keyed particles weren't copied properly (ancient bug).
- Hair rotations depended on global z-axis for root rotation so downward facing strands could flip rotation randomly. Now initial hair rotation is derived from face dependent hair matrix. (This caused for example ugly flipping of child strands on some cases).
- Children from faces weren't calculated straight after activating them.
- Multiple disk cache fixes:
* Disk cache didn't work correctly with frame steps.
* Conversion from memory cache to disk cache didn't work with cloth.
* Disk cache crashed on some frames trying to close an already closed cache file.
* Trails didn't work with disk cached particles.
- Child rough effects were effected by emitter object loc/rot making them next to useless with animation, why didn't anybody tell me this!!
- Lots of random code cleanup.
* bugfix: adding back adding the region on read of old files
* tweak: buttons for increment/decrement file number now have icons and size adjusted to UI_UNIT_X/UI_UNIT_Y
Render usability:
- Option back to render to imagewindow, or fullscreen.
The latter is default. Setting is stored in Scene.
- Added button in output panel, the option "to new window" will follow!
- F11 again toggles render view
(moved MS Windows "full screen" to shift+F11 for now)
* Weight paint: brush strength was changed to both define weight
and strength, this can't work, made them separate buttons.
* Allow adding particle system as modifier (fix crash).
* 3D view modal ops (zoom ..) could not be ended when invoked
from a button.
* Fix some warnings.
* Fix spelling in particle RNA property.
* Previous/Next Folder browser
* bugfix: "open most recently opened directory".
* Previous and Next functionalities:
- use BACKSPACE to navigate to previous folders
- use SHIFT+BACKSPACE to navigate forward
- once you change the folder by other ways the forward folder list is cleared
* bug fix: the sfile->params->dir set through ED_fileselect_set_params wasn't correct. According to the code taking the settings from the existing (previous) filebrowser is a temp solution. In that case this is a fix for a temp solution :)
(changes in: wm_event_system.c, filesel.c and ED_fileselect.h)
** Andrea(elubie): we can get away of the folderlist_clear_next test if we manually pass a boolean to file_change_dir (e.g. file_change_dir(sfile, true)). I tried not to mess up with your changes here. It's slightly slower (and maybe hacky) but its's more conservative IMHO.
(my first commit to 2.5 ... that was a good reason to put my paper on hold :p)
Refactored the backend code/API's to support 'meta' strips (i.e. strips containing other strips). These have been implemented to be nested to 'unlimited' depths (in terms of common usages that is, though there is a very remote chance of stack-overflow in theoretrical evil cases only that shouldn't ever be encountered in production).
This paves the way for implementing the necessary tweaks needed for the transform code (in addition to some cool user-level tricks)
* Baked normal particles can now use the "Path" visualization.
* Path "max length" & "abs length" are now history:
- New option to set path start & end times + random variation to length.
- Much more flexible (and calculated better) than previous options.
- This works with parents, children, hair & normal particles unlike old length option.
- Only known issue for now is that children from faces don't get calculated correctly when using path start time.
* New option "trails" for "halo", "line" and "billboard" visualizations:
- Draws user controllable number of particle instances along particles path backwards from current position.
- Works with children too for cool/weird visualizations that weren't possible before.
* Normal particle children's velocities are now approximated better when needed so that "line" visualization trails will look nice.
* New particle instance modifier options:
- "path"-option works better and has controllable (max)position along path (with random variation possible).
- "keep shape"-option for hair, keyed, or baked particles allows to place the instances to a single point (with random variation possible) along particle path.
- "axis" option to make rotation handling better (still not perfect, but will have to do for now).
Some fixes & cleanup done along the way:
* Random path length didn't work for non-child particles.
* Cached & unborn particles weren't reset to emit locations.
* Particle numbers weren't drawn in the correct place.
* Setting proper render & draw visualizations was lost somewhere when initializing new particle settings.
* Changing child mode wasn't working correctly.
* Some cleanup & modularization of particle child effector code and particle drawing & rendering code.
* Object & group visualizations didn't work.
* Child simplification didn't work.
When auto-keying is enabled, the insertion mode is no-longer blank. The version patching code now takes this into account, but the conversion doesn't work for existing .b25.blend defaults files though.
