This means the deformation on the input to the modifier can be re-applied ontop of the mesh cache.
In practice this is most useful for using corrective shape-keys with mesh-cache.
BKE_rigidbody_aftertrans_update() can be called before rigid body is
validated so check before updating physics_object.
Thanks to Antony Riakiotakis (psy-fi) for the initial patch.
This allows moving rigid bodies on frame > startframe.
Also rigid bodies can now be picked up and trown around while the
simulation is running.
Note: There is a small glitch with cancelling tansform during simulation
but it's tricky to get rid of.
TODO: Avoid static-static collision warnings
Behaves like the generic constraint but has optional spring on each axis.
TODO: Add option to set rest length.
Patch by Markus Kasten (markus111), thanks!
Constraints connect two rigid bodies.
Depending on which constraint is used different degrees of freedom
are limited, e.g. a hinge constraint only allows the objects to rotate
around a common axis.
Constraints are implemented as individual objects and bahave similar to
rigid bodies in terms of adding/removing/validating.
The position and orientation of the constraint object is the pivot point
of the constraint.
Constraints have their own group in the rigid body world.
To make connecting rigid bodies easier, there is a "Connect" operator that
creates an empty objects with a rigid body constraint connecting the selected
objects to active.
Currently the following constraints are implemented:
* Fixed
* Point
* Hinge
* Slider
* Piston
* Generic
Note: constraint limits aren't animatable yet).
Add operators to add/remove rigid body world and objects.
Add UI scripts.
The rigid body simulation works on scene level and overrides the
position/orientation of rigid bodies when active.
It does not deform meshes or generate data so there is no modifier.
Usage:
* Add rigid body world in the scene tab
* Create a group
* Add objects to the group
* Assign group to the rigid body world
* Play animation
For convenience the rigid body tools operators in the tools panel of the 3d view
will add a world, group and add objects to the group automatically so you only have
to press one button to add/remove rigid bodies to the simulation.

Add read/write/interpolate functions.
In order to get rigid body point cache id from object it's now required to pass the
scene to BKE_ptcache_ids_from_object().
Rigid body cache is drawn in the orange color of the bullet logo.
Force fields work with rigid bodies just like they do with other simulations.
Increase min and max strength of force fields so they can influence heavy rigid
bodies.
TODO: Adjust force field strength based on the time step taken.

This is just the basic structure, the simulation isn't hooked up yet.
Scenes get a pointer to a rigid body world that holds rigid body objects.
Objects get a pointer to a rigdid body object.
Both rigid body world and objects aren't used directly in the simulation
and only hold information to create the actual physics objects.
Physics objects are created when rigid body objects are validated.
In order to keep blender and bullet objects in sync care has to be taken
to either call appropriate set functions or flag objects for validation.

Currently used special checks in DM draw code, perhaps better would be
simply to flush changes from PBVH to DM.
Anyway, now things seems to be working OK, will check on better solution
from code point of view later.
Full log is here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66/Usability#Matcap_in_3D_viewport
Implementation notes:
- Matcaps are an extension of Solid draw mode, and don't show in other drawmodes.
(It's mostly intended to aid modeling/sculpt)
- By design, Matcaps are a UI feature, and only stored locally for the UI itself, and
won't affect rendering or materials.
- Currently a set of 16 (GPL licensed) Matcaps have been compiled into Blender.
It doesn't take memory or cpu time, until you use it.
- Brush Icons and Matcaps use same code now, and only get generated/allocated on
actually using it (instead of on startup).
- The current set might get new or different images still, based on user feedback.
- Matcap images are 512x512 pixels, so each image takes 1 Mb memory. Unused matcaps get
freed immediately. The Matcap icon previews (128x128 pixels) stay in memory.
- Loading own matcap image files will be added later. That needs design and code work
to get it stable and memory-friendly.
- The GLSL code uses the ID PreviewImage for matcaps. I tested it using the existing
Material previews, which has its limits... especially for textured previews the
normal-mapped matcap won't look good.
It was caused by own mistake by not noticing externtex is used not
only by render engine. Now this function uses pool passed as argument
rather than using R.pool.
It was caused by image threading safe commit and it was noticeable
only on really multi-core CPU (like dual-socket Xeon stations), was
not visible on core i7 machine.
The reason of slowdown was spinlock around image buffer referencing,
which lead to lots of cores waiting for single core and using image
buffer after it was referenced was not so much longer than doing
reference itself.
The most clear solution here seemed to be introducing Image Pool
which will contain list of loaded and referenced image buffers, so
all threads could skip lock if the pool is used for reading only.
Lock only needed in cases when buffer for requested image user is
missing in the pool. This lock will happen only once per image so
overall amount of locks is much less that it was before.
To operate with pool:
- BKE_image_pool_new() creates new pool
- BKE_image_pool_free() destroys pool and dereferences all image
buffers which were loaded to it
- BKE_image_pool_acquire_ibuf() returns image buffer for given
image and user. Pool could be NULL and in this case fallback to
BKE_image_acquire_ibuf will happen.
This helps to avoid lots to if(poll) checks in image sampling
code.
- BKE_image_pool_release_ibuf releases image buffer. In fact, it
will only do something if pool is NULL, in all other case it'll
equal to DoNothing operation.
to draw with procedural textures on surface of object. 2D painting will
still paint as if tiled.
When we unify the paint systems, the texture sampling functions will
need to be changed. Sculpt uses a slightly different system that passes
both screen and 3d coordinates to the sampling function. This commit
however is not too disrupting for that however so it can go in now.
After deleting a face, check for unused edges and delete them.

Fixes the sculpt object being incorrectly clipped during drawing due
to an out-of-date bounding box making it seem that the object had gone
outside the view.
Added a BKE_pbvh function to get the top-level bounding box. In
sculpt_flush_update(), where the PBVH bounds are updated, the result
is copied to the object's bounding box.
Fixes bug [#33790]
projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=33790&group_id=9&atid=498
Moved the GPU function gpu_bmesh_face_visible() to BKE_paint and
inverted the test to match equivalent tests for other mesh types:
paint_is_bmesh_face_hidden().
Changed BKE_pbvh_bmesh_node_save_orig() to not save hidden faces into
the triangle array.
Modified the non-use-original branch of pbvh_bmesh_node_raycast() to
skip hidden faces.
Fixes bug #33914:
projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=33914&group_id=9&atid=498
Made small tweaks which now limits blur width in a way it can not
be wider than distance between frame boundary and wipe effect center.
It eliminates weirdeness of how blur appears/disappears in cases
effect fac is close to 0/1.
Could be tweaked further but will require effect rewrite it seems.
- BKE_camera_params_from_object now sets the lens to 35 if the object isnt a camera/lamp, without this the view3d lens would be used in camera view.
- running smooth-view multiple times now stores the initial user view rather then over-writing from the current state each time re-smoothview runs.
- redraw panels after smoothview finishes.
- no need for bm_triangle_other_vert_find(), the other vert is known relative to the loop.
- no need for bm_face_edge_backwards(), the verts are in order in the loop.
This adds support of movie textures for Cycles rendering.
Uses the same builtin images routines as packed/generated images,
but with some extra non-rna hookups from blender_session side.
Basically, it's not so clear how to give access to video frames
via C++ RNA -- it'll require exposing ImBuf to API, doing some
threading locks and so. Ended up adding two more functions which
are actually bad level call, but don't consider it's so much bad
-- we have few bad calls already, which are actually related.
Changed a bit how builtin images names are passing to image
manager. Now it's not just an ID datablock name, but also a frame
number concatenated via '@' character, which makes itpossible to
easily know frame number to be used for movie images, without
adding extra descriptors to image manager.
Decoding of builtin name is a bit slower now, but it should be
still nothing in comparison with rendering complexity.
Also exposed image user's frame_current to python API, which
is needed to get absolute frame number of movie from node's
image user.
P.S. Generated/packed images are also using bad level call but
only does it to make things more clear here. Either all images
are using C++ RNA here or no images does. That's the most clear
for now.
Old fixes, since 2009 and before! Related to Curve object editmode:
- normals are not being drawn for hidden curves anymore
- even worse: Blender also didn't hide the extrusions or bevels for hidden curves
- outside edit mode, it shows all (as for all other modes)
- (de)select-all now works when 1st (or any) handle was hidden.
