* subsurf code had a lot of unused variables, removed these where they are obviously not needed. commented if they could be useful later.
* some variables declorations hide existing variables (many of these left), but fixed some that could cause confusion.
* removed unused vars
* obscure python memory leak with colorband.
* make_sample_tables had a loop running wasnt used.
* if 0'd functions in arithb.c that are not used yet.
* made many functions static
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.
Since these conflict with loop select its now an option from the mesh tools panel. also made it possible to alt+rmb and alt+shift+rmb to mark other edge flags (creases,
bevel weights, sharp edges)
Cleaned up bad level calls for multires; moved most of multires functions to blenkern, where they should have been in the first place. Functionality of the tool is unchanged.
using the last selected face was almost good enough however when selecting verts and edges the last selected face would become inactive and the space image would flicker about too much.
The active face is used for getting the space image at the moment and keeps scripts that use this flag working also.
This has 2 commands to get and set, so the variable is not accessed directly.
all "UV Calculate" scripts work now
last commit crashed when in solid draw mode, it seems subsurf modifier is ignoring the displayMask since MTFACE is available. just made it do a null check for now.
uvcalc_follow_active_coords.py - should be done inC and put in the snap menu.
unwrapper and UV mapping menu items were not selecting UV's when initializing a new UV layer
selecting with the brush (BB) in the UV window did not update in the 3D view realtime, use the lock settings to make this work.
This is implimented by defining macro's that take the mode into account when get/set/checking the selection and that a face can be drawn.
When this is enabled, things work a bit differently
* all faces are drawn in the UV view (except hidden faces).
* selecting faces/verts in the UV window selects them on the mesh also and vice vercer.
* when EditMode (Face only) is enabled, selecting faces in the UV view is not sticky.
* hiding/(de)select all and invert selection simle call the editmesh functions.
* there is no way to select 1 uv corner of 1 face (because a mesh cannot have this as a valid selection) either all UV's that use a vert (sticky), or the whole face.
* UV coord buttons overlapped others since merging uv/face and editmode.
* added some quad join and triangulate into the Ctrl+F face menu.
* active face cant be hidden anymore.
The WKey menu was way too big and not well organized, re-arranged keys like this.
Ctrl+V - Vert Menu (remove doubles, smooth...)
Ctrl+E - Edge Menu - left as is
Ctrl+F - Face Menu - (flip normals, shading, Rotate and Mirror UV's/Colors)
Wkey menu only has subdivide in it now.
filesel.c - only show the relative paths option if the file is saved, (flag on by default caused the image to silently fail loading on my system, and gave permission errors on a users), also removed a warning.
* Does not indicate that UV's exist, nor does it add UV's when used.
* Only accessible for texturepaint, vertexpaint and weightpaint from a button in the header (Paint Selection Mask)
* Not accessible from the mode menu, this is only an option that applies to paint modes.
This dosnt effect DNA, face select (G_FACESELECT) can be enabled at any time but is only used when paint modes are enabled.
Other changes
* UKey is uv unwrap in editmode, Ukey for undo was editmode only anyway.
* UVCalc in editmode adds a UV Layer if there is not one alredy.
* texture draw in editmode does not draw the face dots (they are get in the way of texturing)
* some missing updates were added.
* removed manipulator from when paint modes are enabled since the manipulator is not drawn in the 3d view.
Notes
* you cant edit UV's in the image window in "UV Face Select" mode. (removed UV from the name)
* going into Face Select mode no longer adds UV's and does not need UV's to work.
* The UV Calculation menu is now in editmode (Alt+W)
Todo..
* Image replace - partly broken in stable also.
* Rotate/Mirror UV/VCol are still only in Face Select mode.
* Hide/Reveal is not quite right, (issue with editmode flushing)
using mface->flag for both.
Also found that the cdDM_drawMappedFaces and cdDM_drawFacesTex_common could get normals mixed up when rendering hidden faces. because hidden/invisible faces used continue without advancing to the next normal.
Bone.c - return an empty list rather then None for bone.children bone.getAllChildren()
Draw.c - per button callbacks are now have (event, value) passed
Checked every instance of testbase to see this dosnt break anything, also changed TESTBASE and TESTBASELIB, both were used incorrectly in places.
added error_libdata() for library error messages that are everywhere.
added object_data_is_libdata to test if the object and its data's are from a library.
fixed 2 crashs in adding Curve points to a library object (remember to check, verify_ipocurve returns NULL!)
made duplicating and making dupli's real for lib objects possible, disabled joining into lib armatures and meshes.
- Dont do anything if no verts or faces are selected (used to zoom into 0,0,0)
- use the centers of dupli objects (should eventually use their bound boxes), much nicer when dealing with many dupli-objects
Fixed bug #5815, Multires mesh UVs get lost (or crashes!) when adding additional UV layers
* Switching to Face Select mode adds a UV layer automatically, was missing code there to add the layer to multires as well
* Adding/Deleting a customdata layer on a multires mesh should update the multires data first
Vertex snapping now works with backbuffered selection modes. Previously
backbuffer sampling had no way to check whether or not the indices that
it retrieved were selected or not. To resolve this I added two optional
arguments to sample_backbuf_rect in drawview.c. The first argument tells
the function that some additional testing of the retrieved index values
needs to be done and the second argument is a pointer to a function to
do the testing. findnearestvert() in editmesh_mods.c now makes use of this
and passes sample_backbuf_rect() the appropriate argument when being used
for vertex snapping.
Added support for multiple UVs in the render engine. This also involved
changing the way faces are stored, to allow data to be added optionally
per 256 faces, same as the existing system for vertices.
A UV layer can be specified in the Map Input panel and the Geometry node
by name. Leaving this field blank will default to the active UV layer.
Also added sharing of face selection and hiding between UV layers, and at
the same time improved syncing with editmode selection and hiding.
Still to do:
- Multi UV support for fastshade.
- Multires and NMesh preservation of multiple UV sets.
These can be created and deleted in the Mesh panel in the same place as
before. There is always one active UV and vertex color layer, that is
edited and displayed.
Important things to do:
- Render engine, material support
- Multires and NMesh now lose non active layers
Also CustomData changes to support muliple layers of the same type, and
changes to layer allocation, updated documentation is here:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/BlenderArchitecture/CustomData
This commit upgrades the modifier stack to only calculate the data which is
needed, either by modifiers further down the stack or by other functions at
the end of the stack (e.g. drawing functions).
This speeds up modifier stack recalculation, especially where vertex
groups and UV coordinates are concerned. For example, a mesh with an Armature
modifier followed by a Subsurf modifier would previously have required the
Subsurf modifier to interpolate all the vertex groups in the mesh, slowing
down modifier calculations considerably. With this update, vertex group data
is not propagated beyond the Armature modifier, so calculations are faster.
Note that this depends on the order of modifiers in the stack. If the Armature
and Subsurf modifiers were swapped in the above example, the Subsurf modifier
would have to interpolate vertex groups, as they are needed by the Armature
modifier.
All data layers, including MVert/MEdge/MFace, are now managed as custom
data layers. The pointers like Mesh.mvert, Mesh.dvert or Mesh.mcol are
still used of course, but allocating, copying or freeing these arrays
should be done through the CustomData API.
Work in progress documentation on this is here:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/BlenderArchitecture/CustomData
Replaced TFace by MTFace:
This is the same struct, except that it does not contain color, that now
always stays separated in MCol. This was not a good design decision to
begin with, and it is needed for adding multiple color layers later. Note
that this does mean older Blender versions will not be able to read UV
coordinates from the next release, due to an SDNA limitation.
Removed DispListMesh:
This now fully replaced by DerivedMesh. To provide access to arrays of
vertices, edges and faces, like DispListMesh does. The semantics of the
DerivedMesh.getVertArray() and similar functions were changed to return
a pointer to an array if one exists, or otherwise allocate a temporary
one. On releasing the DerivedMesh, this temporary array will be removed
automatically.
Removed ssDM and meshDM DerivedMesh backends:
The ssDM backend was for DispListMesh, so that became obsolete automatically.
The meshDM backend was replaced by the custom data backend, that now figures
out which layers need to be modified, and only duplicates those.
This changes code in many places, and overall removes 2514 lines of code.
So, there's a good chance this might break some stuff, although I've been
testing it for a few days now. The good news is, adding multiple color and
uv layers should now become easy.
Prob: selection sometimes gave wrong edges/faces
Selection code for editmesh was still using a short for calculating the
distance of a projected vertex/edge/face from the mouse position. In
zoomed in cases that'll give overflows and unpredictable results.
It was fixed only half before... now all shorts are removed for distance
calculus.
exception of the clone tool.
One level undo for image- and texturepaint, only storing those tiles
that changed.
Test to improve texturepaint performance using glTexSubImage2D, only
enabled with 2^n sized textures and mipmapping off. Painting a 2048x2048
texture is then pretty smooth here, as long as the geometry is not too
complex.
- Code for brush spacing and timing was rewritten, making spacing more even.
Example: http://users.pandora.be/blendix/brush_spacing.jpg
- Instead of Stepsize for regular brushes and Flow for airbrushes, there is
now Spacing for both, and Rate for airbrushes.
- Airbrush now works more like it does in the Gimp now, by maintaining the
spacing even if the brush moves faster than the painting rate.
- Some preparations to make brushes work in texture paint mode.
- Added a new Brush datablock, only used by image paint, but intended
to be used in texture paint, vertex paint, weight paint and sculpt
mode also.
- Being a datablock, these brushes can be saved, appended and linked.
They have a fake user by default, to make sure they are saved even if
not selected.
Image Painting:
- Replaced the img module with C code in imagepaint.c
- Airbrush is no longer a separate tool, but rather an option that can
be used for soften, smear and clone also.
- Blend modes mix, add, subtract, multiply, darken and lighten have been
added, code taken directly from vertex paint.
Note to project files maintainers:
- The img module was removed from SCons and Makefiles, and this should
be done in other build systems also. I'll wait to remove the module
from cvs, to not break compilation.
