- when the attribute check function failed it didnt set an error raising a SystemError instead
- Rasterizer.getMaterialMode would never return KX_BLENDER_MULTITEX_MATERIAL
- PropertySensor value attribute checking function was always returning a fail.
- Vertex Self Shadow python script didnt update for meshes with modifiers.
There is a problem importing 3ds files where I cant find a way to check if the transforms are applied to the vertex locations or not.
Since 2.44 I made the importer assume they were not since you can manually remove transformations, but not reverse.
Nevertheless most 3ds files have the matrix applied, better not give a bad import by default.
Did some research and other 3ds importers (lib3ds for eg), have the same problem and just assume the transformations applied.
3dsMax imports both correctly so there must be a way to tell but I could not link it to the 3ds version or other mesh options.
Added an option to workaround this problem in rare cases where its needed.
- KX_GameObject.cpp & KX_Scene.cpp, clear the dict before removing the reference in case there is a circular reference.
- added DWG support, adapted Stani Michiels idea for binding an extern DXF-DWG-converter
The external DXF-DWG converter "dconvertcon.exe" 355kb comes from openDesignAlliance www.opendwg.org, is free, but not opensource, not GPL-compatible (can not be bundled with commercial programs), so must be downloaded and installed in Blender script folder by user. It is a DOS console application, can be started in background mode, works on Windows, and in Wine on Linux and OSX. Version 1.0 (2002) supports conversion between DXF<->DWG for autocad release: 2.5, 2.6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 2000, 2002.
This patch solves some major problems of the svg script :
- reading of the inkscape svg format
- parsing of the scientific numbers
- redundant arc data in the same path for only one command "a"
- blending of curves after several files import and at the end a more correct management of the current point.
- Scripts Help Browser: error parsing doc info wrapped in triple single quotes, like done in the 3ds importer. Thanks Jean-Michel (jms) for informing me about it.
- visualizing data, rendering scenes automatically and character rendering on a server.
This example script shows how you can run blender in background mode, parse arguments from the command line to generate a simple scene and render/save it.
- Scripts Help Browser: Brendon Murphy requested and Kevin Morgan implemented a "run script" button.
- AC3D importer: option to store emis color from .ac file in mirror color in Blender (the exporter has the option to export mirror color as emis). Patch by Francesco Brisa.
Thanks for the contributions.
