brought up the following "fixes":
removed these prototypes since they were not used anymore:
void cspace(struct ImBuf *ibuf, float mat[][4]);
void freezbufImBuf(struct ImBuf * ibuf);
void IMB_init_movie_pointers(void);
Renamed IMB_addzbufImBuf prototype so it maches the actual
function: addzbufImBuf

When using MotionBlur, the rendered coordinates were not correctly
adjusted, causing visual artifacts using the new AO, but it was also
visible for normal ray-shadow, which didn't become anti-aliased in
Mblur render.
Solved it with 2 globals now, to pass on blur offset to renderloop.
Leave it that way... the entire method used to jitter/AA/blur stuff
needs revision.
- Ambient Occlusion is a more sophisticated ambient trick, which takes
nearby faces into account by firing a hemisphere of shadow-rays
around. AKA 'dirt shader'.
- Eeshlo made it a Lamp type, which doesn't fit well. I've moved the
settings to the World menu, and let the Material->ambient value control
the amount it contributes
- currently, the AO value is added/subtracted/mixed with the 'diffuse'
factor while shading, before it is multiplied with Material color
Buttons are in new Panel 'Amb Occ" in F8 menu. Note:
- "Dist:" by shortening the length of rays you get subtler effects and it
renders faster too
- "DistF:" the attennuation factor gives control over how the 'shadow'
spreads out.
Further it's just raytracing, so tends to be slooooow.... :)
Here same tricks as for other raytraced scenes apply, especially try to
keep the environment as small as possible (exclude faces from Octree by
giving them no Material Traceable).
I still have to think over a couple of aspects, will await feedback on it:
- AO color? Now it just adds 'white'
- other sampling patterns? I tried dithering, which was so-so
- method of controlling final 'samples' in F10? Might be useful for other
oversampling too (area light) to have it reacting to a percentage or so..
In Faceselect Mode, in the Face menu, Copy Vertexcolors, Copy UVs & Textures
and Copy Drawmode did not work.
Also fixed some menu entries redrawing the logic buttons window instead of the
edit buttons window.
changed sprintf (var, "blahhh %"); to sprintf(var, "blahhh %%");
and initilized a questionable variable to NULL.
drawd should be looked at to see if there is ever a time it might not
be initalized and if so what would be a good default? 1?
I left this one, but if I had to guess I'd initalize it to 1.

multiple functions and partially recoded. Because now all the uv mapping
settings are accessible throught the panel, no popus will be shown when
pressing 'U' to unwrap faces in face select mode. Also From Window to Cylinder
and From Window to Shpere became obsolete, as you can set this in the new
panel.
The panel contains buttons for all the existing uv mapping modes, and the
following settings:
- Cube size: For Cubical unwrapping.
- Radius: Radius for Cylindrical unwrapping.
- View Aligns Face, View Aligns Top, Align to Object: For Cylinder and Shpere.
Respectively means you are in front of the Cylinder/Sphere, look through the
Cylinder, or use the object rotation to determine how the cylinder is
positioned (old Cylindrical unwrapping).
- Polar XZ, Polar XY: With 'View Aligns Top' enabled, defines at which polar
you are looking.
- No Edges, Draw Edges, All Edges: Draw no edges, draw edges z-buffered on top,
draw all edges, without depth test.
All credits for this part (and also at least half of the other UV editor
improvements) go to Jens Ole Wund aka "bjornmose".
Sticky UVs: Ctrl+C
Local Stikcy UVs: Shift+C
Active Face Select: C
Constrained Scaling / Grabbing in the UV editor. Press XKEY or YKEY to scale
or move only in X or Y direction. XKEY and YKEY previously did mirroring while
scaling. Now mirroring can be done using the MKEY.
Grab, Rotate, Scale, Weld / Align and Mirror were added to a new Transform
sub-menu of the UVs menu.
The png file containing the icons, 'blenderbuttons', was updated to contain
these new icons. It now also contains the icons from the 2.30 ui makeover.
The file had not been updated since then.
When you try to SHIFT+F1 Link a file, but accidentally choose the current
file, the error handling didn't immediately close the file. That can give
problems with saving over with CTRL+W.
Fix is that filesel.c now prevents selecting the current file.
The real bug is in the matrices blending function which doesn't handle non-uniform scaling correctly.
I've minimized the occurence of the bug by calling the blending function only when the influence is smaller than one (woah, optimisation AND bug fix!)
This should make the bug disappear approximatly 90% of the time since people don't use influence all that often (also, this only applies to constraint that are alone, not using influence IPOs to switch between two constraints).
I'd solve the blending function bug, but I haven't had much time to dig into it really.
Incidently, by reverting to the previous code, this solves bug #1069http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1069&group_id=9&atid=125
- Added vertex_loop_select to bif_editmesh.h (gave a warning)
- Re-added "Get Same Uv" feature. this selects all faces that have the same uv-texture as the active face. it's placed in the Select headermenu while in faceselect mode.
Basically this provides three new things:
1. Choice of a list of noise-base functions, which can be used by the
current Clouds, Marble, Wood textures as well.
2. Three new texture types: Musgrave, Voronoi and DistortedNoise
3. Python access to noise functions (not for render!)
All of this together makes Blender's builtin procedural textures a LOT
more powerful. Here again, a full webpage should be made to show off all
possibilities, and explain some of the more scientific names for settings.
A good read on Musgrave textures can be found here:
http://www.ypoart.com/Downloads/Musgrave.htm
About Voronoi:
http://www.ypoart.com/Downloads/Worley.htm
I can't find official DistortedNoise docs easily... maybe its something
Eeshlo created himself.
I've spent some time to change the patch Eeshlo provided. Worth noting:
- created main texture "Musgrave" with 5 sub choices (instead of 5 new
main textures)
- added for all new textures the option to scale (zoom in out)
- added patch in do_versions to initialize variables
I hope the Python team will check on the Noise.c API. And include in docs!
&wrld->physicsEngine instead of a pointer to a short.
car: please rebuild and test.
Kester: please check the entries/values in the physics menu (they
differ from the values in tuhopuu).
* Typo fixed in IpoCurve_getInterpolation.
'Bonstant' was used, while 'Constant' is what we want.
* IpoCurve.getName now also returns curve names for action-IPOs.
* Update to the Object module:
Added obj.getTimeOffset() and obj.setTimeOffset() methods
Anders Nilsson has promissed me to provide some updated Python API docs :)
reason is that raytrace code doesnt like shadow on backfacing faces
at all. the hemi light is omni-directional, and would need a shadow
calculation to mimic this as well. the new 'Ambient Occlusion' patch
will make that possible.
- Draw Faces in the UV editor
- Draw Faces, selected in the UV editor, in the 3D view
- Draw Shadow Mesh in the UV editor (for faces unselected in the 3D view)
- Select Linked UVs (LKEY)
- Unlink Selection (Alt+LKEY)
- Stick (Local) UVs to Mesh Vertex on selection
- Active Face Select
- Reload Image
- Show / Hide Faces in the UV editor (H, Shift+H, Alt+H)
- Proportional Editing (O, Shift+O)
- Stitch, Limit Stitch UVs (snap by mesh vertex)
- Weld / Align UVs (WKEY)
- UVs Snap to Pixels on/off switch
- RMB in Texture Paint or Vertex Paint mode picks color
- Select Inverse in Faceselect mode
I hope these are all the features that were commited. The new UV Mapping
panel (and code) will follow later.
- tentative fix for scripts with CR/LF endings and split lines:
in 2.32, the ac3d and vrml2 exporters, for example, had lines
split with '\\\\' and so gave syntax errors when executed on Win
platforms, because the scripts bundled with Win binaries had dos
line endings.
- Chris Keith has written code to execute Python scripts from the
command-line, with '-P ' switch: "blender -P filename":
a Blender.Quit function was also added, so Blender can quit after
running the script (end the script with Blender.Quit()), but there's
still work to be done in this part, including adding more functions,
to load / save .blend files and to run scripts. More testing and
discussions are necessary.
Thanks Chris, for both your contributions and your patience, since I
wasn't available to check / commit this for a while.
Fixed Blender crashing on f3 with tooltip showing and renderwin active.
Searching for the source of this problem it became apparent that on win32 the UI kept being responsive to mousemovement events, even with Blender not being the active application. This commit fixes this too.
