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.
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r19820:HEAD
Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
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)
- initialize pythons sys.argv in the blenderplayer
- ignore all arguments after a single " - " in the blenderplayer (like in blender), so args can be passed to the game.
- add a utility function PyOrientationTo() - to take a Py euler, quat or 3x3 matrix and convert into a C++ MT_Matrix3x3.
- add utility function ConvertPythonToMesh to get a RAS_MeshObject from a KX_MeshProxy or a name.
- Added error prefix arguments to ConvertPythonToGameObject, ConvertPythonToMesh and PyOrientationTo so the error messages can include what function they came from.
- deprecated brick.getOwner() for the "owner" attribute.
- no source code since this is only useful if the epydocs contain code, ours are only docstrings.
- set inheritance to included so you dont have to search up the classes to find available functions.
- SConstruct, isolate the exception for importing epydoc.
- Added a print to the SConscript files otherwise it looks like nothings happening.
- More verbose error messages.
- BL_Shader wasnt setting error messages on some errors
- FilterNormal depth attribute was checking for float which is bad because scripts often expect ints assigned to float attributes.
- Added a check to PyVecTo for a tuple rather then always using a generic python sequence. On my system this is over 2x faster with an optmized build.
- comments to PyObjectPlus.h
- remove unused/commented junk.
- renamed PyDestructor to py_base_dealloc for consistency
- all the PyTypeObject's were still using the sizeof() their class, can use sizeof(PyObjectPlus_Proxy) now which is smaller too.
This changes how the BGE classes and Python work together, which hasnt changed since blender went opensource.
The main difference is PyObjectPlus - the base class for most game engine classes, no longer inherit from PyObject, and cannot be cast to a PyObject.
This has the advantage that the BGE does not have to keep 2 reference counts valid for C++ and Python.
Previously C++ classes would never be freed while python held a reference, however this reference could be problematic eg: a GameObject that isnt in a scene anymore should not be used by python, doing so could even crash blender in some cases.
Instead PyObjectPlus has a member "PyObject *m_proxy" which is lazily initialized when python needs it. m_proxy reference counts are managed by python, though it should never be freed while the C++ class exists since it holds a reference to avoid making and freeing it all the time.
When the C++ class is free'd it sets the m_proxy reference to NULL, If python accesses this variable it will raise a RuntimeError, (check the isValid attribute to see if its valid without raising an error).
- This replaces the m_zombie bool and IsZombie() tests added recently.
In python return values that used to be..
return value->AddRef();
Are now
return value->GetProxy();
or...
return value->NewProxy(true); // true means python owns this C++ value which will be deleted when the PyObject is freed
Hiding faces is a editing option like selection and should not change rendering, it wasn't even working right because meshes without UVs ignored it.
I thought this was needed for compatibility with old files but just noticed this messes up 2 of the files in demos-2.42.zip
Other small changes...
- KX_Camera and KX_Light didnt have get/setitem access in their PyType definition.
- CList.from_id() error checking for a long was checking for -1 against an unsigned value (own fault)
- CValue::SpecialRelease was incrementing an int for no reason.
- renamed m_attrlist to m_attr_dict since its a PyDict type.
- removed custom getattro/setattro functions for KX_Scene and KX_GameObject, use py_base_getattro, py_base_setattro for all subclasses of PyObjectPlus.
- lowercase windows.h in VideoBase.cpp for cross compiling.
Free python modules defined within the blendfile between loading scenes since they would end up accessing old GameLogic, Rasterizer modules as well as old game engine data in the module namespace which can cause problems.
- fix for multiple viewpors broke single viewport (both work now)
- python could get uninitialized values from m_prevTargetPoint and m_prevSourcePoint
- getting the RayDirection for python could crash blender trying to normalize a zero length vector.
- added python attributes
- removed unused canvas from the MouseFocusSensor class
Common cases of this are when python references an object from the AddObject actuator that has ended, or a scene has been loaded and the old objects freed.
This means some scripts will raise errors now in certain cases but better give the error early rather then failing silently with strange hard to track down behavior & crashes.
Added "isValid" attribute for checking objects are in a scene.
At the moment it uses the SceneGraph Node to check of the objects valid but it might be better to do this in a more generic way so scenes, meshes etc also have this check.
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.
- The armature weakref list was being incref'd twice then decrefed twice (incref and decref were used incorrectly), now only once. My 'fix' broke this.
- In bpy_pydriver_create_dict the 2 refs added from running PyDict_SetItemString twice were undone when clearing the dictionary (added comment)
- changed Py_XDECREF to Py_DECREF int BPY_pyconstraint_update and BPY_pyconstraint_target, Py_XDECREF checs for NULL value which would have crashed blender before it got to Py_XDECREF anyway.
- after every error is reported (PyErr_Print), remove sys.last_traceback and clear the error, I found this fixed certain crashes (usually when starting the game engine or exiting blender), so best do this all the time.
- header_text.c, CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp, KX_CameraActuator.cpp - remove some warnings.
Clamp objects min/max velocity.
Accessed with bullet physics from the advanced button with dynamic and rigid body objects.
- useful for preventing unstable physics in cases where objects move too fast.
- can add linear velocity with the motion actuator to give smooth motion transitions, without moving too fast.
- minimum velocity means objects don't stop moving.
- python scripts can adjust these values speedup or throttle velocity in the existing direction.
Also made copy properties from an object with no properties work (in case you want to clear all props)
[#17678] "Mouse over" sensor broken when using viewports
Loop over all the scenes camera viewports and check the mouse is inside the viewport before casting a ray.
Added occlusion culling capability in the BGE.
More info: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.49/Game_Engine#BGE_Scenegraph_improvement
MSVC, scons, cmake, Makefile updated.
Other minor performance improvements:
- The rasterizer was computing the openGL model matrix of the objects too many times
- DBVT view frustrum culling was not properly culling behind the near plane:
Large objects behind the camera were sent to the GPU
- Remove all references to mesh split/join feature as it is not yet functional
Erwin, r16812 "Add Fh/Rot Fh to Bullet" - added this function
ClosestRayResultCallbackNotMe(rayFromWorld,rayToWorld,body,parentBody)
...but parentBody was being ignored and the m_parent value wasn't being initialized.
Run memset() on CcdConstructionInfo which had some unset members for CreateSphereController() and CreateConeController().
Support for assigning any Type to a KX_GameObject
so you can do...
gameOb.follow = otherGameOb
gameOb[otherGameOb] = distanceTo
gameOb["path"] = [(x,y,x), (x,y,x)]
del gameOb[mesh]
* types that cannot be converted into CValue types are written into the KX_GameObject dict
* the KX_GameObject dict is only initialized when needed
* Python properties in this dict cannot be accessed by logic bricks
* dir(ob) and ob.getPropertyNames() return items from both CValue and Py dictionary properties.
Also found that CType was converting python lists to CType Lists but very buggy, would crash after printing the list most times.
Use python lists instead since logic bricks dont deal with lists.
added defines PY_SET_ATTR_FAIL, PY_SET_ATTR_MISSING and PY_SET_ATTR_SUCCESS
This is useful when objects that have user defined attributes (GameObject and Scene)
When calling setattr on the parent, a return value of PY_SET_ATTR_FAIL means the attribute exists but failed to be set, so don't set the custom attribute.
There were also some problems with int to python conversion
- assigning a PyLong to a KX_GameObject from python would raise an error
- PyLong were coerced into floats when used with internal CValue arithmetic
Changes...
- PyLong is converted into CIntValue for coercing and assigning from python
- CValue's generic GetNumber() function returns a double rather then a float.
- Print an error when a PyType cant be coerced into a CValue
Tested with python, expressions and property sensor.
