from Tom Edwards (artfunkel), with minor edits.
This patch makes the following improvements to environment map scripting:
* Adds a "is_valid" RNA property to envmaps. True if the map is ready for use, False if it needs rendering.
* Adds a "clear" RNA function to envmaps. Deletes any envmap image data.
* Adds a "save" RNA function to envmaps. Writes the envmap to disc with a configurable layout. (Defaults to the current hard-coded layout.)
* Updates bpy.ops.texture.envmap_save with configurable layout support as above.
These changes, particularly configurable layouts, make exporting envmaps to other software much easier.
This code is from Andrew Wiggen (ender79) and reviewed by me.
His comments:
Implements some tools that were marked TODO:
- select nth
- separate loose parts
And also fixes a few bugs;
- extrude and move on normals causes faces to disappear until the move starts
- hiding verts/edges/faces does not deselect them
- deleting a selection sometimes deletes too much (e.g. a solid cube and a wire cube build of only edges, join them on a single edge, select only the faces of the solid cube and delete, some of the deselected edges from the wire cube were also being deleted)
This patch adds:
* support for proxy building again (missing feature from Blender 2.49)
additionally to the way, Blender 2.49 worked, you can select several
strips at once and make Blender build proxies in the background (using
the job system)
Also a new thing: movie proxies are now build into AVI files, and
the proxy system is moved into ImBuf-library, so that other parts
of blender can also benefit from it.
* Timecode support: to fix seeking issues with files, that have
a) varying frame rates
b) very large GOP lengths
c) are broken inbetween
d) use different time code tracks
the proxy builder can now also build timecode indices, which are
used (optionally) for seeking.
For the first time, it is possible, to do frame exact seeking on
all file types.
* Support for different video-streams in one video file (can be
selected in sequencer, other parts of blender can also use it,
but UI has to be added accordingly)
* IMPORTANT: this patch *requires* ffmpeg 0.7 or newer, since
older versions don't support the pkt_pts field, that is essential
for building timecode indices.
Windows and Mac libs are already updated, Linux-users have to build
their own ffmpeg verions until distros keep up.
- particle.c wasn't setting all components of the vector when reading cache and setting dummy velocity values.
- some functions incorrectly took a float[3] argument when the 4th value was set.
- remove a few redundant lines of code.
Patch from Juha Maki-Kanto
- initgrabz was called with local space coord.
- Brush radiu was multiplying by 2.0 for grab and snake brushes.
Not sure why this was needed. Made some tests and didn't notice
any regressions without this multiplication.
This means you can import a BVH, rotate 90d and apply the rotation, the animation will still work as expected - thanks to Benjy's script for showing how obvious it is that this works :)
