This would ask for a password in blenders terminal, in ubuntu there is no root user...
If this feature is added back it should be written in a much nicer way.
Also made HKey toggle hidden files in the file selector.
=======================
Caching and Baking:
- The point cache is now cleared on DAG_object_flush_update(), and not cleared for time dependency graph updates.
- There is now a Bake button instead of Protect. Also cache start and end frames were added to softbody and particles.
- The cloth autoprotect feature was removed.
- The Ctrl+B menu now also bakes cloth and particles next to softbody and fluids. Additionally there are now frree bake and free cache menu entries.
- The point cache api has been changed. There is now a PTCacheID struct for each point cache type that can be filled and then used to call the point cache functions.
- PointCache struct was added to DNA and is automatically allocated for each physics type.
- Soft body now supports Bake Editing just like cloth.
- Tried to make the systems deal consistently with time ipo's and offsets. Still not sure it all works correct, but too complicated to solve completely now.
Library Linking:
- Added some more warnings to prevent editing settings on library linked objects.
- Linked objects now read from the cache located next to the original library file, and never write to it. This restores old behavior for softbodies. For local simulation the mesh and not the object should be linked.
- Dupligroups and proxies can't create local point caches at the moment, how to implement that I'm not sure. We probably need a proxy point cache for that to work (ugh).
Physics UI:
- Renamed deflection panel to collision for consistency and reorganized the buttons. Also removed some softbody collision buttons from the softbody panel that were duplicated in this panel for cloth.
- Tweaked field panel buttons to not jump around when changing options.
- Tabbing e.g. Soft Body Collision into the Soft Body panel, it now only shows Collision to make the panel names readable.
- I tried to make enabled/disabling physics more consistent, since all three system did things different. Now the two modifier buttons to enable the modifier for the viewport and rendering are also duplicated in the physics panels. Toggling the Soft Body and Cloth buttons now both remove their modifiers.
- Fixed modifier error drawing glitch.
Particles:
- Particles are now recalculated more often than before. Previously it did partial updates based on the changes, but that doesn't work well with DAG_object_flush_update() ..
- Fixed memory leak loading keyed particle system. Now keys are not written to file anymore but always created after loading.
- Make particle threads work with autothreads.
Continue Physics:
- The timeline play now has a Continue Physics option in the playback menu, which keeps the simulations going without writing them to the cache.
- This doesn't always work that well, some changes are not immediately updated, but this can be improved later. Still it's fun to get a feel for the physics.
Todo:
- Point cache can get out of sync with and undo and changing a file without saving it.
- Change the point cache file format to store a version (so old point cache files can be either converted or at least ignored), and to do correct endian conversion.
- Menu item and/or buttons for Ctrl+B.
- A system("rm ..") was changed to remove() since the former is very slow for clearing point caches. These system() calls were already giving trouble in a bug in the tracker, but really most use of this system("") should be changed and tested.
- The Soft Body Collision and Clot Collision panel titles don't mention there's point cache settings there too, doing that makes them unreadable with the default panel setup.. but may need to make the names longer anyway.
This patch consists in new KX_GameObject::SetParent() and KX_GameObject::RemoveParent() functions to create and destroy parent relation during game. These functions are accessible through python and through a new actuator KX_ParentActuator. Function documentation in PyDoc.
The object keeps its orientation, position and scale when it is parented but will further rotate, move and scale with its parent from that point on. When the parent relation is broken, the object keeps the orientation, position and scale it had at that time.
The function has no effect if any of the X/Y/Z scale of the object or its new parent are below Epsilon.
-Handling of fluid particles was not coded at all
-Now things should work properly, but as fluid particles are not very familiar to me I'd appreciate some thorough testing
A lot of fixes for anim_startofs / anim_endofs:
* crashed when striplen was 0 and startstill / endstill still in use
* made it work for Audio (HD and RAM)
* made it work for Image Sequences
* added a new cutting tool, that uses anim_startofs / endofs instead of
startofs / endofs. This is now the default and called "hard cut"
* moved old cutting method to "Shift-K" and renamed it "soft cut"
The latter is now obsolete and will be soon
removed.
Some tiny build tweaks for darwin committed
in preparation of bigger changes for proper
SDK suport both on intel and ppc
----------
Bugfix #6543: Blender.Library.Load() could segfault if called more than once
with a library of different endian type. In the process discovered an
invalid memory reference in other another function calling library_append().
Thanks to Brecht for the pointers on tracking this old bug down.
reference black, reference white and gamma.
Added 16 bit TIFF saving.
This needs more work to cleanup code and add 16 bit TIFF reading, but
committing it now so it can be tested.
Also scripts will re-run on undo rather then closing.
This is done by saving and loading the name of the script or textblock of the 'Script' datablock, connected to the ScriptSpace. This way when there is a name but the script dosnt run.
Blender runs the script or text block if available.
memory blocks anymore, but smaller fixed size blocks, so that diffing
can be more effective. For example helps in sculpt mode when making
only local changes to the mesh, previously it would copy the whole
MVert array for each undo step.
Fixed a bug with ibuf caching on startstill / endstill.
The new blend modes happened to force start and endstill to be rendered
over and over again. This could get very annoying especially on scene
strips.
We therefore now cache the original start or endstill ibuf seperately
and copy on demand.
flag bit was changed and not changed back, and the flag was moved
back from image user to image. This meant that files saved both
before and during the premul changes did not read premul settings
correct anymore.
Now it uses the old premul flag bit again, which also keeps forward
compatibility.
One problem was that the previous render buffer was stored in the
render window or image window itself, which means that when closing
it, or switching from one to the other, things didn't work as expected.
Also in the image editor, color sampling the previous render buffer or
saving it didn't work correct.
There was an extraneous line causing ID property groups
to have the wrong length, causing crashes in code that
relied on it.
This commit both fixes that and adds a version check to
fix group lengths for older .blends. The subversion
was incremented to 15 for this change.
Reversion of premul bugfix, as it was apparently not
working all that well.
Note that this brings back the bug where the erase alpha
paint tool won't display correctly, since the UV image
editor just draws images in key alpha now.
(which basically tells the renderer and compositor to expect a
key image) is now done at the image user level.
This does have some caveats, as image users don't always work
the way I thought they would/should (for example, the same image user
structure is apparently used in the uv image editor for all images,
which is kindof odd).
The UV image editor also now smartly detects if the premul option is
set and draws the image using key alpha, instead of premul
The subversion level was upped to convert the old premul flag, which was at
the image level, to the new one, which is at the image user level.
This adds a few settings to control global render quality, for faster
renders when tweaking lighting etc. The implementation is not so great,
and this should really be part of a proper render profile and preset
system. So for now it's a hidden Peach feature, enabled by setting rt
to 1. Before the next release, I'll either remove or improve it.
Settings are:
- Maximum subsurf level
- Child particles percentage
- Maximum shadow map samples
- AO and SSS quality factor
New feature: color balance aka 3-way-color-correction aka lift/gamma/gain
on input (folded into byte -> float conversion, so _very_ fast in that case).
Interface is inspired from Rebel CC (but not as complete yet, you can't
choose white and black points right now).
Bugfix: clamp color seperated wave form display correctly.
