Notes:
* Sequence transform strip uses G.scene global, this is commented
out now, should be fixed.
* Etch-a-ton code was most difficult to merge. The files already in
2.5 got merged, but no new files were added. Calls to these files
are commented out with "XXX etch-a-ton". editarmature.c and
transform_snap.c were complex to merge. Martin, please check?
* Game engine compiles and links again here for scons/make/cmake
(player still fails to link).
Python dir(ob) for game types now includes attributes names,
* Use "__dict__" rather then "__methods__" attribute to be Python 3.0 compatible
* Added _getattr_dict() for getting the method and attribute names from a PyObject, rather then building it in the macro.
* Added place holder *::Attribute array, needed for the _getattr_up macro.
Removed a check in Python API touch.setProperty() for the property name on the sensor owner before allowing the name to be set - it makes no sense and isnt checked when creating the sensor.
- SCA_DelaySensor.py indent error making epydoc fail.
Previously only the first collision would trigger an event (no collisions a negative event ofcourse)
With the Pulse option enabled, any change to the set of colliding objects will trigger an event.
Added this because there was no way to count how many sheep were on a platform in YoFrankie without running a script periodically.
Changes in collision are detected by comparing the number of objects colliding with the last event, as well as a hash made from the object pointers.
Also changed the touch sensors internal list of colliding objects to only contain objects that match the property or material.
- pulse isnt a great name, could change this.
* Where possible use vec.setValue(x,y,z) to assign values to a vector instead of vec= MT_Vector3(x,y,z), for MT_Point and MT_Matrix types too.
* Comparing TexVerts was creating 10 MT_Vector types - instead compare as floats.
* Added SG_Spatial::SetWorldFromLocalTransform() since the local transform is use for world transform in some cases.
* removed some unneeded vars from UpdateChildCoordinates functions
* Py API - Mouse, Ray, Radar sensors - use PyObjectFrom(vec) rather then filling the lists in each function. Use METH_NOARGS for get*() functions.
- variables that shadow vers declared earlier
- Py_Fatal print an error to the stderr
- gcc was complaining about the order of initialized vars (for classes)
- const return values for ints and bools didnt do anything.
- braces for ambiguous if statements
This was committed in revision 2832 but never accounted for existing object name hashes which existed since revision 2.
Its possible to update the names elsewhere but unlikely anyone ever used this successfully so removing.
* fixed segfaults in CListValue.index(val) and CListValue.count(val) when the pyTypes could not be converted into a CValue.
* added scene.objects to replace scene.getObjectList()
* added function names to PyArg_ParseTuple() so errors will include the function names
* removed cases of PyArg_ParseTuple(args,"O",&pyobj) where METH_O ensures a single argument.
* Made PyObjectFrom use ugly python api rather then Py_BuildValue(), approx %40 speedup for functions that return Python vector and matrix types like ob.orientation.
Use 'const char *' rather then the C++ 'STR_String' type for the attribute identifier of python attributes.
Each attribute and method access from python was allocating and freeing the string.
A simple test with getting an attribute a loop shows this speeds up attribute lookups a bit over 2x.
scene.getObjectList()[-1] works like a python sequence.
removed some STR_String creation that was only used to do comparisons, in a simple expressions benchmark this made logic use 4% less overall.
* giving compileflags, cc_compileflags and cxx_compileflags to BlenderLib() now actually overrides any other setting (so there's no unclarity when ie. conflicting options are being specified in REL_CFLAGS et al). These are set after either release or debug flags, but before any *_WARN flags (so those stay maintained).
* add cxx_compileflags for GE parts on win32-vc to have better performance.
* NOTE: if platform maintainers (OSX and Linux) could check and do the same for their systems. Not vital, but probably very, very much welcomed by GE users.
This patch modifies the way the setParent actuator and KX_GameObject::setParent() function
works when parenting to a compound object: the collision shape of the object being parented
is dynamically added to the coumpound shape.
Similarly, unparenting an object from a compound object will cause the child collision shape
to be dynamically removed from the parent shape provided that is was previously added with
setParent.
Note: * This also works if the object is parented to a child of a compound object: the
collision shape is added to the compound shape of the top parent.
* The collision shape is added with the transformation (position, scale and orientation)
it had at the time of the parenting.
* The child shape is rigidly attached to the compound shape, the transformation is not
affected by any further change in position/scale/orientation of the child object.
* While the child shape is added to the compound shape, the child object is removed from
the dynamic world to avoid superposition of shapes (one for the object itself and
one for the compound child shape). This means that collision sensors on the child
object are disabled while the child object is parent to a compound object.
* There is no difference when setParent is used on a non-compound object: the child
object is automatically changed to a static ghost object to avoid bad interaction
with the parent shape; collision sensors on the child object continue to be active
while the object is parented.
* The child shape dynamically added to a compound shape modifies the inertia of the
compound object but not the mass. It participates to collision detection as any other
"static" child shape.
The principle is to replace most get/set methods of logic bricks by direct property access.
To make porting of game code easier, the properties have usually the same type and use than
the return values/parameters of the get/set methods.

Old methods are still available but will produce deprecation warnings on the console:
"<method> is deprecated, use the <property> property instead"
You can avoid these messages by turning on the "Ignore deprecation warnings" option in Game menu.
PyDoc is updated to include the new properties and display a deprecation warning
for the get/set methods that are being deprecated.
#18045] [patch] A patch that exposes the rest of the motion functions of KX_GameObject to Python.

*applyTorque => setTorque
*applyRotation => setDRot
*applyMovement => setDLoc
The new class VideoTexture.ImageMirror() is available to perform
automatic mirror rendering.
Constructor:
VideoTexture.ImageMirror(scene,observer,mirror,material)
scene: reference to the scene that will be rendered.
Both observer and mirror must be part of that scene.
observer: reference to a game object used as view point for
mirror rendering: the scene will be rendered through
the mirror as if the active camera was at the observer
location. Usually the observer is the active camera
but you can use any game obejct.
mirror: reference to the mesh object holding the mirror.
material: material ID of the mirror texture as returned by
VideoTexture.materialID(). The mirror is formed by
the polygons mapped to that material.
There are no specific methods or attributes. ImageMirror inherits
all methods and attributes from ImageRender. You must refresh the
parent VideoTexture.Texture object regularly to update the mirror
rendering.
Guidelines on how to create a working mirror:
- Use a texture that is specific to the mirror so that the mirror
rendering only appears on the mirror.
- The mirror must be planar; the algorithm works well only for planar
or quasi planar mirror. For spherical mirror, you will get better
results with ImageRender and a camera at the center of the mirror.
ImageMirror automatically computes the mirror orientation and
position. The mirror doesn't need to be rectangular, it can be
circular or take any form provided it is planar.
- The mirror up direction must be along the Z axis in local mesh
coordinates. If the mirror is not vertical, ImageMirror will
compute the up direction as being the projection of the Z axis
on the mirror plane.
- UV mapping must be set right to get correct mirror rendering:
- make a planar projection of the mirror polygons (Unwrap or projection from view)
- eventually rotate the projection so that UV up direction corresponds to the mesh Z axis
- scale the projection so that the extreme points touch the border of the texture
- flip the UV projection horizontally (scale -1 on X axis). This is needed
because the mirror texture is rendered from the back of the mirror and
thus is reversed from the view point of the observer. Horizontal flip
in the UV map restores the correct orientation.
Besides these simple rules, the mirror rendering is completely automatic.
In particular, you don't need to allocate a camera for the rendering,
ImageMirror creates dynamically a camera for that. The reflection is correct
even on large angles. The mirror can be a dynamic and moving object, the
algorithm always computes the correct camera position based on observer
relative position. You don't have to worry about mirror position in the scene:
the algorithm automatically computes the camera frustum so that any object
behind the mirror is not rendered.
Warnings:
- observer and mirror are references to game objects. ImageMirror keeps
a pointer to them but does not increment the reference count. You must ensure
that these game objects are not deleted as long as you refresh() the ImageMirror
object. You must release the ImageMirror object before you delete the game
objects. To release the ImageMirror object (normally stored in GameLogic),
just assign it to None.
- Mirror rendering is automatically skipped when the observer is behind the mirror
but it is not disabled when the mirror is out of sight of the observer.
You should only refresh the mirror when you know that the observer is likely to see it.
For example, no need to refresh a car inner mirror when the player is not in the car.
Example:
contr = GameLogic.getCurrentController()
# object holding the mirror
mirror = contr.getOwner()
scene = GameLogic.getCurrentScene()
# observer will be the active camere
camera = scene.getObjectList()['OBCamera']
matID = VideoTexture.materialID(mirror, 'IMmirror.png')
GameLogic.mirror = VideoTexture.Texture(mirror, matID)
GameLogic.mirror.source = VideoTexture.ImageMirror(scene,camera,mirror,matID)
# to render the mirror, just call GameLogic.mirror.refresh(True) on each frame.

Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
Rename PHY_GetActiveScene() to KX_GetActiveScene(): more logical name
Add KX_GetActiveEngine()
new KX_KetsjiEngine::GetClockTime(void) to return current
render frame time: if the CPU does not keep up with the
frame rate, up to 5 consecutive logic frames are processed
between each render frame, so that the logic system stays
accurate even if the graphic system is slow. For the video
texture module, it is important to stay in sync with the
render frame: no need to update the texture for logic frame.
BL_Texture::swapTexture(): texture id manipulation
BL_Texture::getTex() : return material texture
Enable video support in ffmpeg for Linux.
added gameObject.replaceMesh(meshname) - needed this for an automatically generated scene where 100's of objects would have needed logic bricks automatically added. Quicker to run replace mesh on all of them from 1 script.
- Forgot to make SCA_ISensor::UnregisterToManager() virtual to intercept active-inactive transition on collision sensor to clear colliders reference.
- Don't record collision on inactive sensor.
This situation occurs when an object with an inactive collision sensor collides with an object with an active collision sensor: the collision handler triggers both sensors.
The result of this bug was pending references that eventually cause temporary memory leak (until the sensor is reactivated).
- Reset hit object pointer at end of frame of touch sensor to avoid returning invalid pointer to getHitObject().
- Clear all references in KX_TouchSensor::m_colliders when the sensor is disabled to avoid loose references.
- Test GetSGNode() systematically for all KX_GameObject functions that can be called from python in case a python controller keeps a reference in GameLogic (bad practice anyway).
kept as the original file, but that can't work correct for solving
relative paths once a .blend in another directory is loaded. The
reason it went OK with the apricot tech demo is that the images there
were lib linked into the level file, which still worked.
Now it sets G.sce to the current loaded .blend file. Note that the
python config file path still uses the first loaded .blend file so it
looks in the same location each time.
Also added some NULL pointer checks in the joystick code because it
was crashing there on Mac, there's similar checks in related functions
so I'm assuming this was just a missed case.
- support stopping of loop sound
- support stopping by python
- keep state of actuator in sync with audio device.
The lack of state sync was causing several other problems:
- actuator stop playing the sound
- sound chopped before the end
- not possible to pause sound
