*Added Smooth/Sharp/Root/etc. mappings to WeightVGEdit modifier, in addition to custom curve one.
*Added Smooth/Sharp/Root/etc. mappings to WeightVGProximity modifier, without the custom curve one!
*Factorized the common mapping code into MOD_weightvg_util.
* Added "Initial Color" setting for surfaces. You can for example set color from UV mapped texture or from vertex colors.
* Added clamping option for "wave" brushes.
* Merged smudge and drip adjacency search code. This fixes some issues with drip effect and makes code easier to maintain.
* Some adjustments to the bounding box generation code.
* OpenMP is now completely disabled if no compile flag is set.
* Wetness values are now properly clamped on vertex surfaces. No more black dots on >1.0 wetness.
* Textured brushes now use same function calls as internal renderer, instead of modified duplicates.
* Moved operator code to editors/physics/.
* Re-enabled some particle brush optimizations.
* Fixed sometimes incorrect volume brush influence.
* Fixed possible crash when using a brush that uses "Voxel Data" texture simultaneously with material preview or render.
* Fixed texture mapping issues for "Object Center" brush.
* Fixed possible crash/corruption when duplicating brush object that uses color ramps.
* Other tweaking and code cleanup.
- was doing NULL checks on freeing memory in cases where the values were already accessed (blender would have crashed anyway), so remove the NULL checks.
- use deform.c api weight functions to replace inline weight lookups in some cases.
- change if checks in weightvg_do_mask() so its more obvious whats going on.
Problems was caused by angle=2*pi and steps=2 in screw modifier.
Such configuration produced duplicated geometry to close object
and it was confusing for subsurf cache.
Restrict steps=2 for screw modifier now, so now 3<=steps<=512.
infact this is not really a bug, irrespective zero vertex group weights gave overlapping geometry which isn't useful, add an option to set the thickness factor for zero weighted verts.
* Object velocity can now be used to determine brush influence and color.
* Brushes can now be set to "smudge" existing paint.
* Added new operators to easily add and remove surface output mesh data layers from Dynamic Paint ui.
* Fixed drip effect algorithm to work properly on forces pointing towards surface.
* Adjusted drip effect speed.
* Drip effect can now use canvas velocity and acceleration to influence drip direction.
* Fixed texture mapping for material enabled brushes.
* "Object Center" type brushes can now use "material color" as well.
* Improved surface partitioning grid generation algorithm.
* Fixed possible invalid brush collision detection when OpenMP enabled.
* Fixed incorrect random sized particle displace/wave influence.
* Fixed "Object Center" brush color ramp falloff.
* Fixed invalid zero alpha sampling when rendering vertex colors.
* Lots of smaller tweaking.
*Removed curve init code in readfile (no more needed since the split broke anyway compatibility with earlier WeightVGroup files…).
*Updated get_ob2ob_distance() code (much simpler – I’m not a matrices’ god!).
*Enhanced a few RNA names (Campbell has others in mind here, though, I think).
* Surface bake data is no longer recalculated every frame, but only when surface mesh has moved/transformed. Results in multiple times better performance on high resolution surfaces when using sub-steps or surface is still.
* Heavily optimized particle brushes when random particle size enabled. Up to 10x speedup with large radius particles.
* Added an additional "grid" space partitioning structure for surfaces.
* Added bounding box checks for brushes.
* Smaller overall optimization.
* Further OpenMP parallelization.
* Added physics tab link to modifier panel.
* Fix: "Point Density" texture cache wasn't properly updated. Brushes can now use Point Density textures as well.
* Fix: Paint dissolve resulted in black color.
* Fix: KD-tree checkups weren't completely thread safe. Fixes possible crash with OpenMP enabled particle brushes.
* Fix: When brush was set to use a specific material, it was saved incorrectly and resulted in potential crashes on next load.
* Canvas and brush can be now enabled simultaneously. This way it's possible for two canvases to interact.
* Added basic anti-aliasing support for vertex surfaces.
* 3D-view color preview now works even when there's subsurf modifier after Dynamic Paint in modifier stack.
* Added a new brush option to use proximity from object center.
* Default surface frame range now use scene's start and end values.
* Improved ray checks for volume brushes.
* Added new "non-closed" option for volume brushes. This way it's possible to use planar meshes as "volume" brushes with predefined ray direction.
* New carrot branch splash image by CGEffex.
* Improved brush affection code.
* Lots of smaller improvements.
* Fixed: Weight paint didn't work with particles.
* Fixed: Point cache didn't work for non-wave surfaces anymore since last commit.
