Note for VS2008 plus CMake users:
I had to remove OpenEXR debug libs from the "blender" project properties >
Linker > Additional Dependencies. Otherwise I got a number of linker errors
concerning duplicated symbols between libcmt.lib and libcmtd.lib.
In addition the billboards can be scaled by the particle velocity with optional head and tail factors (similar to line drawing options). This allows for pseudo-motionblur effects.
- Sequencer dynamics: Now it's possible to change the output channels and the resampling quality also increased (previously maximum quality was 44,1 kHz)
- Changed two buffers to use ffmpeg allocation, not sure if that helps somehow.
* Added vertex weight painting.
* Added dissolve/fade setting for every surface type.
* Restored image format and displace type selection for image sequences.
* Fixed a possible crash when OpenMP enabled.
* Attempt to fix surface rna paths.
* Fixed compile warnings.
* Image sequence anti-aliasing works again.
* Vertex color viewport preview now works with GLSL and textured view modes too.
* Added a new "inverse" setting for "volume + proximity" brush. With it brush only has effect within volume but effect is lower near the mesh surface.
Committed changes from previous weeks, biggest changes are:
* Canvas can now have multiple "surfaces" that each can have specific format, type and settings.
* Renewed UI to support this new system.
* Aside from old "image sequence" output format, Dynamic Paint can now work on vertex level as well. Currently vertex paint and displace are supported.
* Integrated vertex level painting with Point Cache.
* Added viewport preview for Point Cache surfaces.
Due to massive amount of changes, old Dynamic Paint saves are no longer supported. Also some features are temporarily missing or may not work properly.
Conflicts resolved:
source/blender/render/intern/source/pipeline.c
Also fixed an inconsistent conflict resolution in the last commit with
regard to release/scripts/startup/bl_ui/properties_render.py. This
problem resulted in empty menus in the GUI.
This commit adds an experimental effect strip to the sequencer: "Title
Card".
This is useful for adding simple one-line text section headers or
"title cards" (i.e. title + author/contact details) to video clips,
which is often seen in demo videos accompanying papers and/or
animation tests.
See http://aligorith.blogspot.com/2011/06/gsoc11-simple-title-
cards.html for some more details on usage.
Code notes:
- There are a few things I've done here which will probably need
cleaning up. For instance, the hacks to get threadsafe fonts for
rendering, and also the way I've tried to piggyback the backdrop
drawing on top of the Solid Colour strips (this method was used to
keep changes here minimal, but is quite fragile if things change).
This patch adds anisotropic filtering of textures in the viewport and the BGE. The quality of the filtering is adjustable in the user preferences under System. For more information on anisotropic filtering:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering
One current limitation of this setup (having the option a user preference) is it makes runtimes more troublesome. Runtimes don't have user preferences set, so for now the blender player defaults to 2x AF. Options will be added later to change this value (probably a command line option).
- fix python error when the object had an empty material slot
- initialize start frame from the current frame
- set frame range to 300000 max (which is blenders own maximum)
- mesh order was arbitrary, instead use selected -> active, removed invert option.
also fix for missing include in bpy_extras.view3d_utils
a) Enable the possibility to remove the "air bubble" around submerged collision object. This feature is enabled as standard for new files. The code was found in elbeem by nudelZ, coded and provided by Nils Thürey (thanks!)
b) Old baked files gets deleted if a new bake gets started (were overwritten before and resulted in weird old bake + new bake mixture) (idea by nudelZ)
* Sets up a particle system and an explode modifier.
* In "blend" mode requires two selected objects and creates "crossed keyed" particle systems between the objects for a simple blend effect where the first object explodes and then recombines as the second object.
* Also renamed the other quick effect operators as "Quick ..." to bring some consistency to the operators (also nice that now you can just write "quick" to the operator search and get all these operators).
Added a basic multiple bone group paint feature "Multi-Paint" and its corresponding checkbox next to "Auto Normalize," but I need to access the ToolSettings for it in armature to make bone selection function/draw correctly
When you multi-paint, it paints on selected bones while keeping the weight ratios on a vertex of the selected groups the same. You can't currently multi-paint on a vertex with a locked deform group.
