There were a bunch of other issues with dupli motion blur and syncing, the problem
being that there was no proper way to detect corresponding duplis between frames
or updates. As a solution, a persistent_id was added to the DupliObject. It's an
extension of the previous index value, with one index for each dupli level. This
can be used to reliably find matching dupli objects between frames. Works with
nested duplis, multiple particle systems, etc.
Generated and UV coordinates from the duplicator of instance instead of the
object itself.
This was used in e.g. Big Buck Bunny for texturing instanced feathers with
a UV map on the bird. Many files changed, mainly to do some refactoring to
get rid of G.rendering global in duplilist code.
Its unlikely you want to do short -> int, int -> float etc, conversion during swapping (if its needed we could have a non type checking macro).
Double that the optimized assembler outbut using SWAP() remains unchanged from before.
This exposed quite a few places where redundant type conversion was going on.
Also remove curve.c's swapdata() and replace its use with swap_v3_v3()
The particle data is stored in a separate texture if any of the dupli objects uses particle info nodes in shaders. To map dupli objects onto particles the store an additional particle_index value, which is different from the simple dupli object index (only visible particles, also works for particle dupli groups mode).

===============================================
This patch adds a new "Character" BGE physics type which uses Bullet's btKinematicCharacter for simulation instead of full-blown dynamics. It is appropiate for (player-controlled) characters, for which the other physics types often result unexpected results (bouncing off walls, sliding etc.) and for which simple kinematics offers much more precision.
"Character" can be chosen like any other physics type in the "Physics" section of the properties window. Current settings for tweaking are "Step Height" (to make the object automatically climb small steps if it collides with them), "Fall Speed" (the maximum speed that the object can have when falling) and "Jump Speed", which is currently not used.
See http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=127&aid=28476&group_id=9
for sample blends and a discussion on the patch: how to use it and what influences the behavior of the character object.
Known problem: there is a crash if the "compound" option is set in the physics panel of the Character object.
While testing the other my previous commit (removing deformflag stuff), I
noticed that trying to change set a parent object for the current object (via
the Object Properties) would cause the current object to "blow up", and for
cyclic dependency warnings to be spewed to the console.
Adding a dummy usage of one of the vars here seems to solve it. Perhaps a case
of weirdo compiler optimisations?
- Make sure functions are named in way BKE_<object>_<action> (same way as RNA callbacks)
- Make functions which are used by mball.c only static and remove their prototypes
from public header file.
Further cleanup is coming.
use the same precision for location all over (2-5 was used), use define as 5.
also disallow boolean to have any subtype besides PROP_LAYER_MEMBER, some booleans had TRANSLATION / XYZ subtypes which don't make sense.
can type in any value, and only when sliding the number value there is a limit.
It was already possible to assign any value to a socket with node linking, so
this shouldn't cause any new issues.
Also raised the limits on the math nodes, with a patch by Agustin Benavidez.
Note about long lines: I did not touch to two pieces of code (because I don’t see any way to keep a nicely formated, compact code, with shorter lines):
* The node types definitions into rna_nodetree_types.h
* The vgroup name functions into rna_particle.c
Issue was caused by missing fdata for meshes which doesn't have tessellated
faces yet. Real fix would be to use loop's MLOOPUV layer, but currently interface
is using mtex layer names for UV lists so use poly's mtex layer to check if
layer name is indeed correct.
Should work fine until we'll separate setting textures and UV coordinates.
