This modifier used undeformed coordinates from emDM.
Added method getVertCos to emDM, so meshdeform now could use it
to get deformed coordinates form any derived mesh.
Fixes various crashes and redraw problems, most noticeable new feature
is that you can now sculpt on a multires mesh with deforming modifiers
preceding it.
I've left out support for sculpting on multires with enabled modifiers
following it, in this case only the base mesh can be sculpted now. The
code changes needed to do this are just too ugly in my opinion, would
need a more torough redesign which I don't think we should try now. In
my opinion this is also not really an important case, since it's going
to be incredibly slow anyway to run a modifier on a high res mesh while
sculpting.
So, to summarize current state:
* Fastest sculpting: base mesh with no modifiers or multires with only
modifiers preceding it.
* Slower sculpting: base mesh with modifiers, depends on the speed of
the modifiers.
* Not supported: multires mesh with modifiers following it.
* Division by zero fix for TNT SVD code.
* Sound fix, in case ffmpeg decode fails, don't use the samples.
* Fix for incorrect bounds of transformed objects in new raytracing code.
* Gave memory arena's a name used for allocations for easier memory
usage debugging.
* Dupligroup no_draw option was using layers but not restrict view/render
setting. (not a bugfix exactly but would do display list context switching
while drawing for no reason).
* Fix objects instanced on hair particles not giving consistent results
when the object is transformed.
* New math functions: madd_v4_v4fl, len_squared_v3v3, interp_v4_v4v4v4,
mul_v4_m4v4, SH and form factor functions, box_minmax_bounds_m4.
* mul_m4_m4m4 and mul_m3_m3m3 now accept the same pointers for multiple
arguments.
* endjob callback for WM jobs system.
* Geometry node uv/color layer now has search list/autocomplete.
* Various small buildsystem tweaks, not strictly needed yet in trunk.
- vertex normals were not being flipped (though faces are)
- rim faces didnt influence edge vertex normals
apply solidify on top of solidify modifier now works correctly
to specify different spring lengths.
Implementation is quite ugly because the shape key has to be pulled
through the modifier stack somehow, need a more flexible data mask
system to solve this properly.

Used approach with creating DerivedMesh for curves whet they've got such modifiers.
Available modifiers are: array, edge split, mirror, solidify, subsurf.
levels, child particles, and shadow/SSS/AO quality.. Now also works on what
is displayed in the 3d view instead of only rendering, see panel in the scene
properties.
Most file changes were to make scene available in the isDisabled modifier
callback function.
Fix#20516: subsurf modiefier+pressing add for smoke sims results in crash.
Fix retopo not working correct on subsurf mesh.
Various deforming modifiers were not correctly taking into account that a
derivedmesh is not necessarily a CDDerivedMesh, made utility functions for
this now.
* Displacement coordinates are now stored differently, as a grid per
face corner. This means there is duplication of coordinates, especially
at low subdivision levels, but the simpler implementation justifies it
I think.
* ToDo: conversion of existing multires files (2.4x or 2.5x), loading them
may even crash now.
* Editmode preservation/interpolation code also has not been updated yet.
* Multires now works on the CCGDerivedMesh grids instead of CDDerivedMesh,
which should be more memory efficient.
* There are still bad memory peaks (if you're using 32bit) when subdividing
or propagating displacements. Though at least there should be no huge
memory blocks allocated, which windows is now to have trouble with.
* Still found some weird spike artifacts at lower multires levels, some also
happening before this commit. Perhaps computation of tangents needs to be
tweaked more.
* Multires modifier now has viewport, sculpt and render levels. Also the
levels have been made consistent with subsurf, previously the same level
of subdivision was one less for multires.
* Both multires and subsurf modifier now can have their subdivision level
set to 0 for no subdivision.
* Now uses the CCG DerivedMesh also in object mode, used to be edit mode only.
* Create CD_ORIGINDEX layer on demand, to save memory.
* Removed ss_to_cdderivedmesh function, and instead create ccgdm and then
convert that to cddm, to avoid code duplication.
* Added and implement DerivedMesh interface functions to obtain face grids.
* Store edge/face flags more memory efficient.
* Export CCGDerivedMesh struct in BKE_subsurf.h
Rather than applying the modifier to the object data, it will create a new shape
with the deformed vertices in there. Only mesh at the moment, other object
types on the todo.
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

Blended shape keys can now be displayed & edited in edit mode. This
is much like showing an armature modifier in edit mode, and shape keys
now are a applied as a virtual modifier (for mesh & lattice only, curve
doesn't fit in the stack well due to tilt).
The main thing missing still is being able to switch between the active
shape key in edit mode, that's more complicated.. but the weights of
other shapes can be edited while in edit mode.
One thing to be careful about is that this does automatic crazyspace
correction, which means that if you edit a shape key with a low value,
the actual vertices will be moved to correct for that and actually move
a (potentially much) longer distance.
Also includes some UI tweaks, mainly placing some buttons horizontally
since the vertical list was getting too long.
Internal change to not apply the shape keys to the Mesh vertex coordinates,
but rather use it as part of the derivedmesh/displist evaluation. This only
has one practical advantage right now, which is that you can now make a
linked duplicate and pin it's shape key to a different shape than the first
object.
Further, this makes shape keys correctly fit into the modifier stack design,
which will help implement some other features later. Also it means the mesh
vertex coordinates are now really the orco's.
* Replaced FACESEL_PAINT_TEST macro with paint_facesel_test. This removes one more thing from BKE_global, and it'll make it easier to localize.
* Fixed sculpt paint cursor sometimes not showing.
actually two modifier datamask optimizations that were never done.
* Don't use modifier data mask for disabled modifiers.
* Check if UV data is needed for particle system instead of always
requesting it.
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.
Realtime modifiers applied on mesh objects will be supported in
the game engine with the following limitations:
- Only real time modifiers are supported (basically all of them!)
- Virtual modifiers resulting from parenting are not supported:
armature, curve, lattice. You can still use these modifiers
(armature is really not recommended) but in non parent mode.
The BGE has it's own parenting capability for armature.
- Modifiers are computed on the host (using blender modifier
stack).
- Modifiers are statically evaluated: any possible time dependency
in the modifiers is not supported (don't know enough about
modifiers to be more specific).
- Modifiers are reevaluated if the underlying mesh is deformed
due to shape action or armature action. Beware that this is
very CPU intensive; modifiers should really be used for static
objects only.
- Physics is still based on the original mesh: if you have a
mirror modifier, the physic shape will be limited to one half
of the resulting object. Therefore, the modifiers should
preferably be used on graphic objects.
- Scripts have no access to the modified mesh.
- Modifiers that are based on objects interaction (boolean,..)
will not be dependent on the objects position in the GE.
What you see in the 3D view is what you get in the GE regardless
on the object position, velocity, etc.
Besides that, the feature is compatible with all the BGE features
that affect meshes: armature action, shape action, relace mesh,
VideoTexture, add object, dupligroup.
Known problems:
- This feature is a bit hacky: the BGE uses the derived mesh draw
functions to display the object. This drawing method is a
bit slow and is not 100% compatible with the BGE. There may
be some problems in multi-texture mode: the multi-texture
coordinates are not sent to the GPU.
Texface and GLSL on the other hand should be fully supported.
- Culling is still based on the extend of the original mesh.
If you have a modifer that extends the size of the mesh,
the object may disappear while still in the view frustrum.
- Derived mesh is not shared between replicas.
The derived mesh is allocated and computed for each object
with modifiers, regardless if they are static replicas.
- Display list are not created on objects with modifiers.
I should be able to fix the above problems before release.
However, the feature is already useful for game development.
Once you are ready to release the game, you can apply the modifiers
to get back display list support and mesh sharing capability.
MSVC, scons, Cmake, makefile updated.

+bvhtree cache (if the derived model doenst gets destroyed then the same BVHtree can be used)
this was needed to allow shrinkwrap constraint to be usable.
It has been ready for a long time.. but only got merged now, for 2.49.
[18429] Typo in IPO Actuator

/* No screen, happens when saving a blendfile in background mode,

- Weightpaint back (CTRL+TAB or menu)
Also weightpaint is sortof non-modal, allowing to use all existing
hotkeys while in paint mode. Only leftmouse is overridden.
- Made vpaint and wpaint entirely local, stored in scene (and saved!)
- Small bugfix (also in 2.48): on weightpaint mode, all armature objects
in 3d window were drawing as active poses. Now only the armature
deformer is.
Nice point for the UI agenda: are paint modes on ACTION mouse? Only then
you can combine it with SELECT mouse...
