* where_is_object_time was called for every effector evaluation only to determine the object velocity in some rare cases.
* Calculating the effector velocity is now done in the effector precalculation stage.
* Removing this makes the code thread safe and also should give some nice performance boosts when simulating a lot of points.
* Thanks to MiikaH for noticing this problem.
- 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.
* Greetings from farsthary: particle rotation is now taken into account for particle effector direction.
** This gives all kinds of new possibilities as he shows in his blog http://farsthary.wordpress.com/2011/02/08/vortex-particle-simple-tut/.
**The only modification I made to his patch was to use the actual rotated particle direction as the effector direction as this defaults to the particle velocity vector, so no actual new options are needed.
* I also added an "effector amount" setting for particle effectors so that only a part of the particles can be considered as effectors. This makes it possible to create simple "farsthary vortexes" with only one particle system.
* Also some tiny reorganization of the falloff min/max values for a nicer ui.
- 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.
* Particle collision with size was broken since raytrace optimizations by jaguarandi, now the collision code falls back to old slower method when the collision ray has a radius.
* Single goal/avoid object now works for boids.
* Some tiny improvements on collision avoidance for boids.
problem is that where_is_object is being called from multiple threads
but is not thread-safe, added a note about this problem, this commit
only solves the crash. Also remove the pushdata/popdata mechanism
that was being used here, using this kind of system is bound to give
problems with threading.
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.
* 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:
