Notes:
* Sequence transform strip uses G.scene global, this is commented
out now, should be fixed.
* Etch-a-ton code was most difficult to merge. The files already in
2.5 got merged, but no new files were added. Calls to these files
are commented out with "XXX etch-a-ton". editarmature.c and
transform_snap.c were complex to merge. Martin, please check?
* Game engine compiles and links again here for scons/make/cmake
(player still fails to link).
vector in perspective mode. This is default OpenGL behavior, but
by now this optimization is really insignificant. Works in both
the 3d view and game engine.
- wm draw method is now initialized correct when reading older
files, but the SDNA bug causing the problem is still unsolved.
is due to // char pad[8]; not being recognized as commented.
- triple buffer proxy texture test follows spec better now,
was disabling triple buffer unnecessarily on some drivers.
- some cmake compile fixes related to sequencer pthread usage
and removed bad level calls lib for player.
- show outliner header buttons in oops mode as well until that
can be switched in the UI.
- fix region data free issue for tooltips
- warning fixes
* Drawing code from wm_event_system.c split into separate wm_draw.c file.
Now there's 3 different draw methods implemented, not sure what survives
or will be added but is useful for debugging.
* Draw All: redraws everything each time, for reference.
* Draw Overlap All: what the code did before this commit, only draw
regions marked for redraw, and anything that overlaps them.
* Triple Buffer: copies/retores all area regions into a texture, and
blits that before drawing. Menus, brushes, gestures, etc are redrawn
always on top of that.
Currently "Draw Overlap All" is set hardcoded to be used still. Triple
Buffer code is not complete, it doesn't handle window resize yet. Cards
that don't support non power of two textures can need quite large
textures as well, this could be split into multiple smaller ones.
View3D has been split now in a local part (RegionView3D) and a
per-area part (old View3D). Currently local is:
- view transform
- camera zoom/offset
- gpencil (todo)
- custom clipping planes
Rest is in Area still, like active camera, draw type, layers,
localview, custom centers, around-settings, transform widget,
gridlines, and so on (mostly stuff as available in header).
To see it work; also added new feature for region split,
press SHIFT+ALT+CTRL+S for four-split.
The idea is to make a preset 4-split, configured to stick
to top/right/front views for three views.
Another cool idea to explore is to then box-clip all drawing
based on these 3 views.
Note about the code:
- currently view3d still stores some depricated settings, to
convert from older files. Not all settings are copied over
though, like custom clip planes or the 'lock view to object'.
- since some view3d ops are now on area level, the operators
for it should keep track of that.
Bugfix in transform: quat initialize in operator-invoke missed
one zero.
Als brought back GE to compile for missing Ipos and channels.
* DNA_cloth_types.h, patch by Roelf de Kock. The gravity[3] member
is not being parsed correct by makesdna.c and will give issues
even when trying to fix it. Worked around it for now in RNA by
wrapping it manually, but this should really be fixed in the DNA
genetics code, added a comment about it in DNA_cloth_types.h.
* Handle vertex groups and uv layers more consistent now. They are
all exposed as strings now. Reason is that indices don't really
say much, and a direct pointer is not always possible because for
example a uv layer in a material can be used for multiple objects
and so there is no single pointer. In python it is not too hard
to use either since the strings works as a key for lookups.
For the user interface we can later think of some method to
generate popup menus in a way that works for vertex groups,
uv layers, bones etc.
* This also fixes the XXX's in rna_modifier.c, I think that can be
marked done.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
proper results, should bake as if SSS was disabled.
- Fix for GLSL to handle failing shadow buffer creation better.
- Fix for sky/atmosphere version patch, was not doing files from 2.46
and newer.
setting the magnification to GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST but that is
only valid for minifaction, should be GL_LINEAR instead. OpenGL
driver should refuse setting this so should be harmless, but better
to fix it anyway.
using linking together the precompiled library shader code and
material code and recompiling it all again for each material even
if it gives a performance hit, since the previous workaround only
worked on some driver versions still.
I reversed the order of attaching shader objects for linking to solve an
issue in the driver before, but now it appears it needs to be the other
way around again? I don't know if these are the same cards that now want
it different again due to changes in the glsl code, but I found another
workaround for the first bug in a forum post (leaving out parameter names
in the declarations), so with some luck both cases work?

working with relative paths. Still doesn't work optimal, since
paths are relative to game.blend which is in the app bundle
under Contents/Resources, so other files need to be moved there
manually at the moment.
the features that are needed to run the game. Compile tested with
scons, make, but not cmake, that seems to have an issue not related
to these changes. The changes include:
* GLSL support in the viewport and game engine, enable in the game
menu in textured draw mode.
* Synced and merged part of the duplicated blender and gameengine/
gameplayer drawing code.
* Further refactoring of game engine drawing code, especially mesh
storage changed a lot.
* Optimizations in game engine armatures to avoid recomputations.
* A python function to get the framerate estimate in game.
* An option take object color into account in materials.
* An option to restrict shadow casters to a lamp's layers.
* Increase from 10 to 18 texture slots for materials, lamps, word.
An extra texture slot shows up once the last slot is used.
* Memory limit for undo, not enabled by default yet because it
needs the .B.blend to be changed.
* Multiple undo for image painting.
* An offset for dupligroups, so not all objects in a group have to
be at the origin.
