* Alt-S in Object Mode would crash. Was caused by modal-keymaps for Pose Mode not being cleared when not in Pose Mode.
Also fixed what appears to have been a copy+paste error for Armature Sketching keymaps.
* Active KeyingSet menu in TimeLine header is now properly editable. Was using the wrong type of layout call to do this.
* cache for low res (deactivating high res for now)
* new way of view3d rendering of smoke (no longer 3 axes) -using 3dtexture now (introduced into gpu/intern)
* introducing LZO and LZMA libs into extern (makefiles missing for now)
* reducing memory usage after simulating for the frame ended (freeing temporary buffers)
* splitting smoke into 2 modifier for the cache-sake (it cannot handle more than 1 cache on the same modifier-index)
* no color on gui anymore
* fixing non-power-of-2 resolutions (hopefully)
* fixing select-deselect of domain drawing bug
* fixing drawobject.c coding style (making Ton happy) ;-)
HINT #1: If scons doesn't work -> cmakefiles are up-to-date, couldn't test scons (but i tried to mantain them, too)
CODERS HINT #1: we really need a way to disable adding all modifiers through "Add Modifiers" dropdown!
WARNING #1: before applying this commit, deactivate your SMOKE DOMAIN in your old files and save them then. You can open them then savely after that.
WARNING #2: File and cache format of smoke can be changed, this is not final!
* Added Shading and Performance panels in the scene buttons,
containing the options previously in the 2.4x game menu.
* Added show framerate/debug/physics/warnings back in game menu.
* Moved these settings from G.fileflags to scene GameData.
* Enabled Display Lists by default.
* Some other small game scene button tweaks.
* Pose mode was already object-localized, but moved the flag from object->flag to object->mode, with all the other modes.
* Updated object mode RNA
* Commented out some dubious use of base->flag with the posemode flag. So far as I could see the value was only being set, not read, so a hopefully safe change.
* Made texture paint object-localized too.
Note for Brecht: gpu_draw.c had three uses of G_TEXTUREPAINT that I was not able to cleanly fix, so commented out for now. Can you take a look and see what should be done here?
* Weightpaint is now object-local like sculpt and vertexpaint.
* Fixed a bug spotted by DingTo, going from editmode to sculptmode didn't fully leave editmode
* Replaced FACESEL_PAINT_TEST macro with paint_facesel_test. This removes one more thing from BKE_global, and it'll make it easier to localize.
* Fixed sculpt paint cursor sometimes not showing.
* Added callback function for some metaball properties:
When some properties (wiresize, threshold, update flags) of metaball are changed, then these properties are copied to all metaballs in the group (all metaballs with same base name). This is important to "share" some properties between metaballs, because polygonisation of metaball is influenced only by properties of base metaball and base metaball can be changed.
* Improved drawing of selected Metaball objects
a) take first position lamp into accountn for smoke ligthning (still no realtime shading when you move the lamp - you have to simulate another frame for now)
b) fix front/back "looking throurgh" issue by reordering the billboards
a) Crash fixed when loading files with smoke
b) changed presets to be more low-cpu friendly
c) smoke looks thicker
Unsolved:
a) 3dview of smoke changes weirdly when looking at front/back. Just move around a cube with smoke and you know what I mean - odd shading. If someone likes to take a look: draw_object.c -> search for "smoke" there
Not working:
a) rendering (since volumterics branch is not merged yet)
b) moving collision objects of any kind
c) saving of collision objects (because that's what I am working on)
d) pointcache
e) A bunch of other things I already know of
So please do not report any bugs on this one yet :-)
- It is possible to work with MetaBalls in edit mode now
- Added basic UI to the button window (feel free to change it :-))
- Header menus should work
- Undo & redo should work
- Removed global variable editelems and lastelem (moved it to the MetaBall struct)
- All tools from old editmball.c was converted to the operators
- Added lastelem to the RNA
- Experimental: mb->editelems is only pointer at mb->elems or NULL (depends on Mode). ListBase of MetaElems is not duplicated in edit mode.
Tested with scons at Linux and mac OS X
TODO:
- Recalc data after Undo or Redo
- Solve issue with basic MetaBall and Python UI script (only base MetaBall object influence Wiresize and Threshold)
- Fix orientation of manipulator in "Normal mode"
Too many new features to list! But here are the biggies:
- Boids can move on air and/or land, or climb a goal object.
- Proper interaction with collision objects.
* Closest collision object in negative z direction is considered as ground.
* Other collision objects are obstacles and boids collide with them.
- Boid behavior rules are now added to a dynamic list.
* Many new rules and many still not implemented.
* Different rule evaluation modes (fuzzy, random, average).
- Only particle systems defined by per system "boid relations" are considered for simulation of that system.
* This is in addition to the boids own system of course.
* Relations define other systems as "neutral", "friend" or "enemy".
- All effectors now effect boid physics, not boid brains.
* This allows forcing boids somewhere.
* Exception to this is new "boid" effector, which defines boid predators (positive strength) and goals (negative strength).
Known issue:
- Boid health isn't yet stored in pointcache so simulations with "fight" rule are not be read from cache properly.
- Object/Group visualization object's animation is not played in "particle time". This is definately the wanted behavior, but isn't possible with the current state of dupliobject code.
Other new features:
- Particle systems can now be named separately from particle settings.
* Default name for particle settings is now "ParticleSettings" instead of "PSys"
- Per particle system list of particle effector weights.
* Enables different effection strengths for particles from different particle systems with without messing around with effector group setting.
Other code changes:
- KDTree now supports range search as it's needed for new boids.
- "Keyed particle targets" renamed as general "particle targets", as they're needed for boids too. (this might break some files saved with new keyed particles)
Bug fixes:
- Object & group visualizations didn't work.
- Interpolating pointcache didn't do rotation.
* Objects now support up to 32767 material slots. It's easy to
increase this further, but I prefer not to increase the memory
usage of mesh faces, it seems unlikely that someone would
create 32767 distinct materials?
* Forward compatibility: the only thing you can potentially lose
reading a 2.5 file in 2.4 is object linking (instead of default
data), though usually that will go fine too. Reading files with
> 32 material slots in 2.4 can start giving issues.
* The ob->colbits variable is deprecated by the array ob->matbits
but I didn't remove the ob->colbits updates in very few places
it is set.
* I hope I changed all the relevant things, various places just
hardcoded the number 16 instead of using the MAXMAT define.
* Join Objects operator back. This is using the version from the
animsys2 branch coded by Joshua, which means it now supports
joining of shape keys.
* Fix for crash reading file saved during render.
- Keyed targets in one list instead of "chaining", this opens up many more possibilities than before and is much less obscure.
- Better keyed timing possibilities (time & duration in frames).
- Looping over keyed targets list.
Other changes:
- New child setting "length" with threshold (great for guard & underfur with a single particle system)
- Modularization of path interpolation code.
- Cleared "animateable" flags from many particle settings that shouldn't be animateable.
Fixes:
- Keyed particles weren't copied properly (ancient bug).
- Hair rotations depended on global z-axis for root rotation so downward facing strands could flip rotation randomly. Now initial hair rotation is derived from face dependent hair matrix. (This caused for example ugly flipping of child strands on some cases).
- Children from faces weren't calculated straight after activating them.
- Multiple disk cache fixes:
* Disk cache didn't work correctly with frame steps.
* Conversion from memory cache to disk cache didn't work with cloth.
* Disk cache crashed on some frames trying to close an already closed cache file.
* Trails didn't work with disk cached particles.
- Child rough effects were effected by emitter object loc/rot making them next to useless with animation, why didn't anybody tell me this!!
- Lots of random code cleanup.
* Context panel now draws without header, with arrows, no scene name.
* Softbody vertex group search popup.
* Improve names for autogenerated shortcut keys in menus.
* Make most Select menus in the 3D view header work.
* Fix armature border select selection syncing.
* Add POSE_OT_select_constraint_target,
MESH_OT_select_by_number_vertices, MESH_OT_select_vertex_path.
* Merge mesh select similar into one operator.
* Don't give MESH_OT_select_random Space hotkey.
* Add DAG_object_flush_update to many mesh edit tools, not calling this
will crash with modifiers.
* RNA_def_enum_funcs for dynamic enums in operators, but not very useful
without context yet.
* Fix refresh issue with image window header + editmode.
* Fix drawing of shadow mesh for image painting.
* Remove deprecated uiDefMenuButO and uiDefMenuSep functions.
* Remove keyval.c, code is in wm_keymap.c already.
* Rename WM_operator_redo to WM_operator_props_popup.
Brought back the basics for transform manipulators. Martin will
hook it all up to new transform system.
Some notes:
- Still uses G.moving
- BIF_do_manipulator() is called as a View3D Operator
I've tested selecting handles, added a print to confirm
- BIF_GetTransInfo() returns a dummy struct now, just to get
it running.
- Marked some other issues with XXX
* Baked normal particles can now use the "Path" visualization.
* Path "max length" & "abs length" are now history:
- New option to set path start & end times + random variation to length.
- Much more flexible (and calculated better) than previous options.
- This works with parents, children, hair & normal particles unlike old length option.
- Only known issue for now is that children from faces don't get calculated correctly when using path start time.
* New option "trails" for "halo", "line" and "billboard" visualizations:
- Draws user controllable number of particle instances along particles path backwards from current position.
- Works with children too for cool/weird visualizations that weren't possible before.
* Normal particle children's velocities are now approximated better when needed so that "line" visualization trails will look nice.
* New particle instance modifier options:
- "path"-option works better and has controllable (max)position along path (with random variation possible).
- "keep shape"-option for hair, keyed, or baked particles allows to place the instances to a single point (with random variation possible) along particle path.
- "axis" option to make rotation handling better (still not perfect, but will have to do for now).
Some fixes & cleanup done along the way:
* Random path length didn't work for non-child particles.
* Cached & unborn particles weren't reset to emit locations.
* Particle numbers weren't drawn in the correct place.
* Setting proper render & draw visualizations was lost somewhere when initializing new particle settings.
* Changing child mode wasn't working correctly.
* Some cleanup & modularization of particle child effector code and particle drawing & rendering code.
* Object & group visualizations didn't work.
* Child simplification didn't work.
* Moved proportional edit, snap, autokey mode, and a few others
from Scene to ToolSettings.
* RNA wrapped properties in ToolSettings for the UV editor:
proportional edit, snap settings, selection modes.
* Allows moving, rotating & scaling of particle simulations.
* Setting in particle render options.
* Changes viewed & rendered particles from global space to parent space.
* Doesn't effect simulations at all.
Start of planned DerivedMesh refactoring. The mface
interfaces in DerivedMesh have been renamed to reflect
their new status as tesselated face interfaces (rather
then the primary ones, which are now stored in mpolys).
short review: mpolys store "primary" face data, while
mfaces store the tesselated form of the mesh (generally
as triangles). mpolys are defined by mloops, and each
mpoly defines a range of loops it "owns" in the main
mloop array.
I've also added basic read-only face iterators, which
are implemented for CDDM, ccgsubsurf, and the bmeditmesh
derivedmesh. Since faces are now variable-length things,
trying to implement the same interface as mfaces would not
have worked well (especially since faces are stored as
an mpoly + a range of mloops).
I figure first we can evaluate these simple read-only
face iterators, then decide if a) we like using iterators
in DerivedMesh, b) how much of it should use them, and c)
if we want write-capable iterators.
I plan to write official docs on this design after I get
it more stable; I'm committing now because there's a rather
lot of changes, and I might do a merge soon.
-Many things not yet working properly :)
-Experimental new (hopefully more logical) categorization of buttons, feedback on this is very welcome.
-Separate render & draw types, for example now there is actually a render option "halo" instead of all the different point draw types.
-Particles get recalculated only from buttons that actually change something that has to be recalculated, for example changing visualization doesn't reset particles any more.
-Boid physics buttons are still missing as I'm currently redoing the whole boids code.
-Point caching is still very wip, so baking is not possible for example, but I added a few cache baking flags for rna that were/will be needed for particle buttons logic.
* Added material "type" property, with Surface/Volume/Halo
options, compatible with sim_physics, as requested for
material buttons layout. Obviously the Volume setting
does nothing currently.
* Deprecated MA_HALO flag in favor of this.
Text drawing in 3D window fixed, using BLF default font (yes, nice AA'ed
fonts too :)
Solved it by gathering all strings that needs to be drawn for an object,
and then draw in end of object drawing, in pixelspace. Also cleaned up
some of the code for projecting 3d coords, much nicer now (mat stored in
region-view3d)
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
