Added Mesh .key .removeAllKeys() and .insertKey() for MDD support (was using NMesh just for keys before)
Since this is aparently an experemental feature in NMesh we may want to change this.
BPyRender.imageFromObjectsOrtho() returns an image
Made all image bake scripts ask before overwriting a file. as well as displaying the newly created image once its rendered.
import_obj - comments, docstring additions, cleanup.
OBJ export: -renamed export_obj
faster edge exporting (use edges LOOSE flag rather then finding zero face user edges)
check for file before overwriting
use object iterators

* Recursive search was enabled by default, if your OBJ happened to be at root path, loading the OBJ could take ages. Made recursive searching optional.
* MAX's MTL exporter replaces spaces with underscores, image loading checks for this and loads the name with spaces if the one with underscores dosnt exist. not realy a problem with the importer but annoying to manually replace lots of images.
exactly the same as mesh_create_derived_render(ob) except it uses the view modifier settings.
Added an optional arg to getFromObject to 'render' so you can choose to get the mesh displayed in the 3d view or generate one with render settings.
Solved bug 4612 getFromObject now works with soft body meshes (error was caused by getting the derived mesh from a copy of the object)
removed workaround for softbody bug in object_apply_def.py
The original obj importer was ok but it gradually got slower
as it had to support quirks of rare files.
This importer supports these quirks without bad workarounds and ~250 less lines.
* Moved from NMesh to Mesh
* Import smooth groups as hard edges
* Import Lines from sketchup (Thanks Wavk)
* Uses less memory
* faster (On a 70meg poser test model, benchmarked from 130sec to 41.2sec)
Not yet supported from the old importer-
* Scaling down to a bounding area
* Importing multiple obj's at once
* Using existing materials in the .blend
* Importing as a group instance.
also make use of meshes faces.extend() indexList option- which means lots of checking can be removed.
indexList is not relyable at the moment so some files wont import but this will be fixed.
locations are: smart, middle, v1, and v2
where smart is an attempt to generate a loc that will collapse without loosing volume.
This can now collapse a subdivided cube properly.
before funky stuff like IPO bezier curve fitting etc are added.
* Fixed problem with zero length bones being removed.
* Sped up import by writing to ipo curves rather then inserting keyframes
* detect linear rate of change and ommit unneeded ipo points.
* cleanup
Added better docscrings
Added a texture baker for procedural textures,
Its able to make a WYSIWYG image from the texture, by using the texmesh property, so texture coords arnt lost up when flattening the mesh.
Use a high res image not to see any seams
Some optimizations and Ctrl will escape the script properly if you want to skip merging the islands.
Thanks to Melchior FRANZ for the report and debug blend
- bake wire
- bake image
- bake vcol
- bake normals
Fitting all the options for these into 1 PupBlock was not good.
An example of 4 different baking made from these scripts
