there are some cases (i.e. Constraint Actuator) where the same DNA property is being used by different RNAs with different ranges.
It's easy to change (reset the values to their default in the set func of the constrant type rna).
Not sure it's necessary though.
tile cache code in imbuf, but it is not hooked up to the render engine.
Imbuf module: some small refactoring and removing a lot of unused or old code
(about 6.5k lines).
* Added a ImFileType struct with callbacks to make adding an file format type,
or making changes to the API easier.
* Move imbuf init/exit code into IMB_init()/IMB_exit() functions.
* Increased mipmap levels from 10 to 20, you run into this limit already with
a 2k image.
* Removed hamx, amiga, anim5 format support.
* Removed colormap saving, only simple colormap code now for reading tga.
* Removed gen_dynlibtiff.py, editing this is almost as much work as just
editing the code directly.
* Functions removed that were only used for sequencer plugin API:
IMB_anim_nextpic, IMB_clever_double, IMB_antialias, IMB_gamwarp,
IMB_scalefieldImBuf, IMB_scalefastfieldImBuf, IMB_onethird, IMB_halflace,
IMB_dit0, IMB_dit2, IMB_cspace
* Write metadata info into OpenEXR images. Can be viewed with the command
line utility 'exrheader'

While I was looking in outliner.c, made some changes to let extra passes display
there such as environment (commented out before due to a previous limitation).
Also changed outliner object visbility/selectability/renderability toggles to use
RNA buttons so you can insert keyframes with RMB menu etc.
- effector list wasnt NULL'd on copying a particle system
- copying an object would initialize the cloth modifier, then copy it, witout freeing its effector weights created in cloth_init().
- link now brings up a search box so when there are 100's of groups its less annoying.
- utility functions for id-enums so only local objects can be displayed in a search list (used for group_link)
- renamed operator properties from typle to scene, group, action etc.
Condition for this to work (.blend file must be saved) was poorly communicated
in the UI (printfs are no good for this - ideally should use reports). Tweaked this a bit.
* Removed some un-needed armature code stubs
* Manually copying over the values of constraints in the constraint copy() callbacks should NOT be needed. Removed this from the Spline IK constraint. The manual process is only a hacky aspect of the modifier stack only!
- IPO-blocks for curves were not getting handled correctly (i.e. no conversion and relinking was taking place) when converting from 2.4x to 2.5
- Old 'speed' IPO's now have their values multiplied by the path length when they are loaded from old 2.4x files so that they work correctly in 2.5.
Also...
- Cleaned up a few instances of scruffy code formatted in some weird ad-hoc way.
- Debug prints for the start/end of the file conversion process are now all hidden behind debug-only checks. Unless the way the conversions are done is significantly changed at some point, this should be sufficient...
This adds MULTICAM-editing support for blender. (Well, the beginning of.)
There is now a new effect track, named MULTICAM, which just selects
one of the lower tracks.
Doesn't sound that exciting, but if you combine this with A/B-Trim (moving
split points of two directly connected tracks around, while magically
resizing both strips, something to be added), you just do:
* add several tracks for your camera angles
* (optionally) sync those tracks
* add one multicam track on top
Use that multicam-track to edit your movie. (Either using fcurves on the
multicam source selector or using knife-tool and A/B-Trim.)
Compare that to:
* add several tracks
* add cross fades between them
* do some python scripting to add several fcurves to make that beast
somewhat work.
* cry out loud, using it, if you have to move cut points around
Alternatively, even harder:
* just edit the old way and put strip after strip
You might think, that this isn't really helpfull for animators, but
consider using scene-strips (in OpenGL-mode) for input, that are set for
different camera angles and can now be intercut a lot more easily...
Also: small fix on the way: the speed effect can now be used in cascade.
(Don't know, if anyone used it that way, but now it works.)
eg. character.blend -> anim.blend -> comp.blend
... Would link the character.blend directly into comp.blend because on driver ID's.
In this case id_lib_extern doenst need to be called because the object its linked from is a library.
* Take border render into account when drawing grid before for render
result becomes visible.
* Use antialiasing for rendering icon previews.
* Fix Full Sample not drawing render result while rendering.
* Mesh Deform Modifier: also forgot to commit this file.
