Most likely will not compile for others, I'd appreciate any build errors
and missing files reports (I can never seem to get everything committed
and all the build systems working without help).
Porting over the sculpt/multires tools was a breeze,
thanks goes to brecht for a design that didn't exclude
ngons and was easy to port.
Note that I've not tested externally-backed multires
file support yet. Also, I still need to write version
patch code for some cases.
Some notes:
* Like trunk, topological changes don't update multires right,
so e.g. subdivide will duplicate multires data on the new faces,
instead of subdividing it.
* If you set the debug value (ctrl-alt-d) to 1 it'll turn on
my experiments in speeding up sculpting on higher-res multires
meshes (but note it makes partial redraw not completely accurate).
* There's a bug where you have to go through editmode to get out
of sculpt mode, not sure if I inherited or created this myself.
Even a static mesh can be used as replacement: the mesh
will be instantiated with the soft body settings of the
object. The position and orientation of the soft body
is preserved after the replacement.
Known limitation: the velocity of the soft body is reset
aftet the replacement. This is because soft body don't
have a well defined velocity.
How it works now:
whenever you have to read/write object names you can do it without the prefix "OB". (it's not hard at all to fix scripts)
How it was before:
It was a mess :)
We had an inconsistent API where sometimes you had to input "OBname" and other "name" directly to assign object as data (usually in actuators).
Justification for the change:
Talking with Campbell we had since a while ago this feeling that this should be changed any time we were going to deprecate the API. So in order to deliver Blender 2.5beta0 with a more close-to-the-final API we decided that today was a good day to implement that.
Remaining issues:
1) VideoTexture uses IM or MA to identify the output material/texture. I haven't touched that, but it does look a bit off. (i.e. I didn't changed any MA, IM naming)
2) I didn't see the code of dynamic mesh. It may need to be edited as well.
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
- rna vars arm.bones.active & rna.edit_bones.active
- needed special undo support.
- readfile.c loads.
- duplicate and copy_armature support.
- keep the draw flag, renamed to BONE_DRAW_ACTIVE, only use for openGL drawing.
Note: it may be better to allow active/unselected as with objects.
2.49a tries to remove the object from the conversion list every time. Now remove from the conversion list directly without being apart of the remove object function.
* Transparency is now it's own panel, with a boolean toggle
+ enum for z/ray transparency (following mockup made by
William). Also had to change DNA flags for this.
* Disabled radiosity a bit more in render engine, it still had
some effects like auto autosmooth.
* Make some sliders in material buttons percentages in RNA.
* Some other small tweaks in layout and naming.
Add support back for reinstancePhysics mesh, a frequently requested feature in the BGE forums.
from what I can tell Sumo supported this but bullet never did.
Currently only accessible via python at the moment.
- rigid body, dynamic, static types work.
- instanced physics meshes are modified too.
- compound shapes are not supported.
Physics mesh can be re-instanced from...
* shape keys & armature deformations
* subsurf (any other modifiers too)
* RAS_TexVert's (can be modified from python)
Moved the reinstancePhysicsMesh functions from RAS_MeshObject into KX_GameObject since the physics data is stored here.
video and blend file demo.

* 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.
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....
* removed radiosity render code, DNA and RNA (left in radio render pass options), we'll get GI to replace this probably, better allow baking to vertex colors for people who used this.
* removed deprecated solid physics library, sumo integrations and qhull, a dependency
* removed ODE, was no longer being build or supported
* remove BEOS and AMIGA defines and references in Makefiles.
Note that the animation conversion from existing 2.4x blend files doesnt yet set the Action pointer in the actuator so the only way to test is to use the python api to set the new converted action active on the actuator because there is no user interface.
Start of planned DerivedMesh refactoring. The mface
interfaces in DerivedMesh have been renamed to reflect
their new status as tesselated face interfaces (rather
then the primary ones, which are now stored in mpolys).
short review: mpolys store "primary" face data, while
mfaces store the tesselated form of the mesh (generally
as triangles). mpolys are defined by mloops, and each
mpoly defines a range of loops it "owns" in the main
mloop array.
I've also added basic read-only face iterators, which
are implemented for CDDM, ccgsubsurf, and the bmeditmesh
derivedmesh. Since faces are now variable-length things,
trying to implement the same interface as mfaces would not
have worked well (especially since faces are stored as
an mpoly + a range of mloops).
I figure first we can evaluate these simple read-only
face iterators, then decide if a) we like using iterators
in DerivedMesh, b) how much of it should use them, and c)
if we want write-capable iterators.
I plan to write official docs on this design after I get
it more stable; I'm committing now because there's a rather
lot of changes, and I might do a merge soon.

Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
+ fixed Python method, PyArg_ParseTuple already checks for errors, no returning of NULL, thanks Campbell too)
+ added linear/angular spring for each of the 6DOFs of a generic 6dof constraint. This makes the generic 6dof constraint very versatile.

(todo: expose this setting in World setting GUI)
Expose contact processing threshold in Advanced GUI, next to rigid body margin, called CPT.
Default to 1, makes rigid body stacking a bit more stable, smaller values makes sliding easier (at the cost of easier jittering).
Disabled for 'dynamic' objects that don't rotate, because characters etc. always need smooth sliding.
SCA_RandomActuator: The random generator was shared between replicas and not deleted. Added ref counting between replicas to allow deletion at the end.
KX_Camera: The scenegraph node was not deleted for temporary cameras (ImageMirror and shadow), causing 500 bytes leak per frame and per shadow light.
KX_GameActuator: Global dictionary buffer was not deleted after saving.
KX_MotionState: The motion state for compound child was not deleted
KX_ReplaceMeshActuator: The mesh was unnecessarily converted for each actuator and not deleted, causing large memleak.
After these fix, YoFrankie runs without memleak.
