Works as follows;
- press the 'show bake settings' button (no space left... :)
- define start/end frame for bake, and an interval step.
The baked result interpolates nicely (Bspline, 4 keys) so in general a
step size of 2 or 3 still gives OK results.
- Press "BAKE". This will do a full animation + playback. Press ESC if it
you don't want it.
Once Baked, the BAKE button becomes a FREE BAKE. As reminder the softbody
buttons get blocked with error() menu.
This saves OK in a file. Renders any frame, including fields and moblur.
You can also set a "Timeoffs" for the softbody. And yes, this should be
in the NLA once... :)
NOTE! With this commit, files saved with the old (first commit) version by
Jens Ole won't read the settings back... he stored all sofbody variables in
Object, which was moved to a new struct when I did my first commit on SB
(over a month ago)
Also note that I moved particle deflecting & softbody to a new include.
fixed some *includes*
with
#ifdef WIN32
#elif
#include <sys/time.h>
#endif
looks like MSVC6 does not need that include .. donno if cygwin builds will
so thats why i kept that *ifdef overhead*
Works like a charm... well it now replaces the old base-sorting hack. :)
Next stage will be to define how to further integrate it. Plus some
minor code cleanups... static/internal functions versus external, etc.
softbody.c I removed an unused var.
text.c added return values to 2 return statements that didn't have anything.
Makefile added $(FIX_STUBS_WARNINGS) to CFLAGS for the stub.
source/blender/src/editface.c fixed up int vs unsigned int stuff
source/blender/src/resources.c had two vars declared as unsigned char *
and then inputs to them were cast as char * so updated the casts.

source/creator/creator.c
changed ifdef's around fpe_handler to match when its actually used.
intern/SoundSystem/intern/SND_AudioDevice.cpp
Changed: SND_SoundObject* oldobject = oldobject = pIdObject->GetSoundObject();
to: SND_SoundObject* oldobject = pIdObject->GetSoundObject();
intern/SoundSystem/openal/SND_OpenALDevice.cpp
removed unused var.
source/blender/blenkernel/intern/mball.c
initalized a couple of vars that might have been used uninitalized.
The rest were changing types to match, most of them were something like
was short * should have been unsigned short *.

Wrong referencing of Materials created when importing DXF caused crashes.
Note for the person who coded it: the use of Blender internals (database)
is quite confusing... most of exotic.c isn't really OK code to reuse
from.
There's also a lot of redundant code there... with many chunks adding
objects or mesh data being copied completely. This can be structured much
better! :)
done for lattices... these keep calling this during transform, causing
the lattice itself and its children (if soft) to remain static on same
position.
Real solution has to be 2-fold:
- store deformed lattice points in Lattice, as a "DispList"
- usage of proper depgraph :)
There's also the idea to keep simulating softbody during a transform, to
give feedback on what softbody does... later.
Apparently DXF allows layers to be read too... this went wrong in 2 ways;
- object->lay was not equal to base->lay
- if DXF has layer info, but not readable, it set object->lay to 1 instead
of using 'current layer'.
SoftBodyDetectCollision() is handeling the case
'user wants to prevent self intersection by declaring SB object a deflection target'
ahh .. yeah .. i can see the bug reports on that
(me shrugs .. never promised that to work)
submitted by Alexander, changes/improvements are:
- Moved to new Panel in Scene buttons "Post Effects". Together with other
postprocessing options, such as Edge render. It is also not called DoF,
this because that's a bit pretending too much then. It's a zblur still!
- Made it render Alpha as well
- Made it use and deliver float buffers
- Huge cleanup of zblur.c code, was very messy. It was alling things in render
code without need even (win matrices, transform faces, etc)
- Fixed errors in using Z values (zbuffer is signed int)
- Removed very weird gamma corrections for front/back half
- Tweaked gaussian table, allow variable 'Sigma' to be set for gauss curve
- Didn't copy 'auto focus' yet. Use of this is very limited, and gives
false expectations, nor works for rendering anims with deamons well.
Main issue remains: it's not a very advanced feature... I still doubt
very much if this deserves to be released. Spent 2 days on trying to get
the key issues solved, with not much results.
- gauss filter code has weird side effects on large blur size
- having unsharp (blurred) in front also blurs what's around in back.
only blurred in back with sharp in front works a little bit
- severe aliasing errors... also due the code splitting in 2 halves
- doesnt work with unified yet
- won't work for halos, spot halos or transparant faces
Anyhoo... It was promised to be committed, so now artists can play with it.
Who knows it's useful after all, or some fixes can be implemented. :)
in the particle interaction panel
"D"= "Amount of damping during softbody collision/intrusion"
"I"= "Inner face thickness" good value for unit cube == 0.2
"O"= "Outer face thickness" good value for unit cube == 0.02
still we can easily hide that before releasing
(which still can't really handle moving targets)
leaving 2 bug fixes
1. multiple objects need a reset on cache variable
2. quads always need to be handled as 2 triangles
(since they don't need to share a plane)
added a collision detecting function in effect.c for SB
( no need to be there, but i did not find a better place )
but should handle 'moving targets' up to 0.2 blender units/frame
well .. important info in this case:
collision
uses 'face normal' to decide if *intrusion* happend
uses 'damping' of collision target to slow down movement
when *intrusion* happend
+some more removing unneeded code in softbody.c
This will add Minneart diffuse and WardIso specular to our shader menu.
Minneart gives nice control over darkness/brightness areas, the wardIso
over 'plastic' style sharp or fuzzy specular.
Webpage is being made with nice samples. Will be in release log.
Jorge: one change is in the do_versions, you inserted it on wrong location.
When curve objects have no front/back faces, the bevels were only drawn
for the outer part. Now it also makes interior bevels, so yo can
have a curve become a 'solid' ring easily.
Note: only works when you disable filling option "Front" and "Back".
- after grab/duplicate the softbody didn't get a reset signal
- added 'copy properties' for softbody settings
- duplicate object didn't copy softbody yet
- Added browsing for vertex group for "Goal" in SoftBody buttons.
- Means the default name "SOFTGOAL" isn't needed anymore
- temporally, on file read, the "SOFTGOAL" vertex group is set, if exists
- removing vertex group possible too
- changed softbody.c code to use this
so we can decide later what proper timing is meant to be.
i've prepared something in static float sb_time_scale(Object *ob) [softbody.c] (ton :) )
'hacked in' particle collision system to match softbodies needs
naa .. i don't realy like the hack to int pdDoDeflection(..) in kernel .. effect.c (but it works :) )
so .. until we'll have a 'nice' collision detector this is what 'softbodies simulator can live with'
did not remove intentionally test function static int sb_deflect_test(..) for further discussions
http://mitglied.lycos.de/mosebjorn/hidden/ sbcol6.blend should work for a while
(Looks like big commit, but is mostly just change of API call!)
Particle emittors now can be parented to an armature Bone, and give the
correct path for each particle. Note that this doesn't work for deform!
And, for each particle the entire armature is evaluated, all actions and
NLA strips.
It used to work a little while BTW, but the code just called ALL armatures
and made ALL deforms again. Was quite slow... thats why the API call
change: do_all_actions() now accepts Object * to only do that one. With
a NULL it now does all still. Will disapppear in recode of course...
from Ricki Myers (themyers).
Comes with nice juicy commit msg, too!
- source/blender/blenkernel/BKE_text.h
- Removed indent_paste, uncommen, unindent_lines, comment_paste,
uncomment_paste, uncomment, set_tabs.
All these functions cut and re-added text (I felt this was
unsafe). whicch is was caused the highlight loss.
- Now the only functions are Indent, Unindent, comment, uncomment,
setcurr_tab. All these functions only take one @parm (struct Text)
-indent(struct Text *text)
copy's the selected text in a MEM_mallocN line by line added a
tab at the begginning
- Unindent(struct Text *text)
Tests if current line starts with a tab.
if TAB remove it
- comment(struct Text *text)
copy's the selected text in a MEM_mallocN and adding a # at the begginning
- Uncomment(struct Text *text)
Tests if current line starts with a #.
if # remove it
- setcurr_tab (Text *text)
Checks for Tabs pri. to any text
if : is found and not in a comment then Tabs is increased by one
if "return", "break", "pass" is found then Tabs is decreased
- blender/source/blender/src/header_text.c
Changed: txt_cut_sel(text);
indent_paste(text);
TO:
txt_order_cursors(text);
indent(text);
* no more cutting of the text
- source/blender/src/drawtext.c
set_tabs(Text *text) just calls setcurr_tab(text);
claened up sbObjectStep(...) to follow 'time step rules'
added really care for framerate in scene
renamed arguments in softbody_calc_forces(...); and softbody_apply_forces(...); for better reading
fixed particle integration to be ODE solver compatible
- Added new (Particle) Deflector; type Wind.
Wind gives constant directional force. It is animatable (Ipos) and reacts
to Object scaling. Also uses FallOff. Works for particles and SoftBody
quick movie check; http://www.blender.org/bf/0001_0250.avi
test file is in download.blender.org/demo/test/wind_soft.blend
- Added MaxDist option for forcefields, to control its influence better.
Is drawn as circle in 3d window.
Forcefields are a bit weak still... should react to scaling, or not; in
that case drawing should indicate it (done for spherical field now).
- removed displistmesh_from_{mesh,editmesh}
- removed EditVert.ssco
- removed unused functions for DispListMesh DerivedMesh
Still need lots more testing for this stuff.
- removed ME_CCG_SUBSURF define
- dropped CCGSubSurf from editing menu... subsurf is always
CCG now.
NOTE: If you saved a file with CCGSubSurf set on the button
will show up blank (will still work as a subsurf). Just change
type back to Catmull-Clark.
Wave bye-bye to HyperMesh...
before it would follow subsurf code path by creating fake displistmesh,
etc... kinda fun for testing but just annoying now.
- change to creasing behavior, to make sure that with full creasing effect
is just simple subdivision.
is fast, but can be rather tedious to work with...)
- vertex normals for smooth faces draw correctly now... this code also
switched to drawing with GL_QUAD_STRIP which can be quite a bit faster
(depends how fast graphics card calcs lighting, I get 50% faster here)
- on add new SoftBody, it creates automatically edges in Mesh now, gives
too confusing results otherwise
- if no edges exist in mesh, it also doesnt add diagonals for faces in
softbody
Transform;
- fixed stupid 'used unitialized' gcc warning (sorry theeth!)
- made dualAxisConstraint() accept string too
- little cleanup of prints in using Manipulators
