- new feature, twiddled with lattice resizing to try to maintain
existing vertex changes... much nicer than just resetting the
lattice if you decide you need more detail in the lattice.
- modifiers work with lattices now. yes, that does mean you
can make a chain of lattices effecting each other 8 miles
long.
- some cleanup of softbody code, was rather splintered and call
path was twisted and confusing. reworked main object step
routine to do things in a more obvious and consistent manner
and without duplicate code
- added ob->softflag OB_SB_RESET instead of sbObjectReset
call
- modifier changes reset softbody now
- moved curve_getVertexCos/curve_applyVertexCos into curve.c
- update curve modifier eval to work with virtual modifiers
- update modifier apply to work with curves/surfs
- update make parent to also recalc object data
NOTE: Although you can turn SB on for curve/font objects at the
moment it doesn't really work because they call deform in
multiple steps and this confuses SB. Not sure how to deal with
atm.
- removed {lattice,curve}_modifier functions
- changed render code to use displist for curve rendering
instead of making its own. required adding a bevelSplitFlag
field to DispList. I also fixed the bevel face splitting
which did not work correctly in many situations.
- changed so all curve data creation happens in makeDispListCurveTypes,
includes making bevel list and filling polys
- changed render code to use displist for surface rendering
- removed Curve.orco variable, built as needed now
- removed stupid BLI_setScanFill* functions... why use a function
argument when you can use a global and two functions! Why indeed.
(this fixed crash when reloading a file with filled curves and
toggling editmode)
- bug fix, setting curve width!=1 disabled simple bevel for no
apparent reason
- cleaned up lots and lots of curve/displist code (fun example:
"if(dl->type==DL_INDEX3 || dl->type==DL_INDEX3)"). Hmmm!
- switched almost all lattice calls to go through lattice_deform_verts,
only exception left is particles
- added DBG_show_shared_render_faces function in render, just
helps to visualize which verts are shared while testing (no
user interface).
- renamed some curve bevel buttons and rewrote tooltips to be
more obvious
- made CU_FAST work without dupfontbase hack
Also by the way I wrote down some notes on how curve code
works, nothing spiffy but it is at:
http://wiki.blender.org/bin/view.pl/Blenderdev/CurveNotes
- removed mesh_deform (merge into mesh_modifier)
- switch python lattice_apply function to use object_apply_deform,
this isn't exactly equivalent but the python system shouldn't
have been calling that deep into the kernel anyway.
New feature: Modifier stack
- added Object.modifiers (list of ModifierData elements)
- added DNA_modifier_types.h
o contains type definition for the file data for the various
modifier types
- added BKE_modifier.h
o contains modifierType_get_info (access to modifier type registry)
o structs and defines for runtime modifier usage
- updated mesh_calc_modifiers to evaluate modifier stack (note that
for the time being it also evaluates the old style modifiers so files
should load and work as normal).
- add file handling modifier code (todo: don't replicate on object copy)
- add modifier stack UI code (lives in object panel)
Only real new feature at the moment is that you can apply lattices and
curves *after* a subdivision surface which was never possible before.
Todo:
- DEP graph updating does not work correctly yet, so you generally have
to tab cycle to see results.
- editmode calculation does not use modifier stack.
- bug fixes (there must be a few in there somewhere)
- changed mesh_modifier, sbObjectStep, object_deform to take vertexCo
argument instead of operating on mesh
- fixed bug where a derived mesh would not be returned in editmode
- removed object_wave, replaced by init_wave_deform and calc_wave_deform
- moved cached DerivedMesh to Object, not Mesh... fixes heisenbugs
with linked objects
(adding)
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include <config.h>
#endif
also the Makefile.in's were from previous patch adding
the system depend stuff to configure.ac
