Now when doing normal projeciton is possible to ask it to project along the normals
that the vertex would have if it was subsurfaced... this gives "better" projections on
low polys.
Point of this commit is to add the feature request from Eclectiel
http://blenderartists.org/forum/showpost.php?p=1181531&postcount=9
workflow as Eclectiel wanted is now possible:
to archieve a nice low-res retopology that aproximates a high-res mesh when subsurfaced:
1 - make base low-poly retopo
2 - apply a shrinkwrap with projection along normal.. and with SS level = N (where N>0)
3 - add a Subsurface with level N
4 - run bretch's script (ss_fit)
*removed commented code about the dropped shrinkwrap options
*Removed references to "cut plane", "limitMesh".. its now called "auxiliar target"
*Added option to shrinkwrap over an selected axis
*"Normal projection" mode is now called "projection" since it can now project over "normal, and any combination X, Y, Z"
animated textures
I have added a dependsOnTime function for the Displace modifier which checks
if the displacement texture has IPOs, is a plugin, or uses an animated image.
* Added "Lock axis" options on taper and strech/squash (suggested by ZanQdo)
* Better control of deform factor (suggested by ZanQdo)
* Added eModifierTypeFlag_AcceptsCVs (so it now accepts both curves and meshes)
*the options "remove faces", "merge" points were removed
*made shrinkwrap work with CVs (curves and nurbs surfaces)
*cleanup shrinkwrap code.. (removed bruteforces and raytree methods)
CDDM_apply_vert_coords needs a CDDerivedMesh, but it was getting a
CCGDerivedMesh from the preceding Subsurf modifier. This fix just makes
a CDDerivedMesh copy of the supplied DerivedMesh rather than using it directly.
*Fixed a few UI things
*Make SimpleDeform and Shrinkwrap to use vertexgroup_get_vertex_weight, a similar function
"static float vert_weight(MDeformVert *dvert, int group)" existed on modifier.c, changed
it a bit and moved into BKE_deform.h
Genscher made me do it the same way that the other 10 modifiers do.
The reason why I initially choosed memcpy was so that if anyone added
parameters on DNA there would be no need to update _copyData, unless
if it was a feature related to memory (eg.: point cache)
This patch adds the ability to specify a falloff radius in the Wave modifier.
Currently only linear falloff is supported.
Thanks to Michael Fox for the patch!
Changed code to remove faces (now quad faces that got one vertice projected are turned on tri)
Merge option is still not very usefull since shrinkwrap does not yet moves unprojected vertices
This patch re-assigns the mirrored data to use vertex groups with "mirrored"
names (e.g. L_arm -> R_arm, Leg.R -> Leg.L etc.). Vertex groups with the
"mirrored" names must already exist in the base mesh.
This means that it is no longer necessary to apply the mirror modifier in order
to rig the mirrored data independently.
Thanks to Michael Fox for the patch!
Some more Bmesh custom data functions and
structures. This still does not do anything
yet because the various conversion functions
don't bother making use of the new custom data
functions. Hooking them up should be fairly
simple though.
Also note that the custom data code is mostly
copy/pasted from the existing custom data
functions for editmode with a few modifications.
Duplicating code like this isn't nice, but I
felt it was better to keep things for Bmesh
'standalone' for the moment and take only what is
immediatly needed instead of creating
a tangle of interdependant code.
Added a new pooling allocator for Bmesh based upon
the pool allocator availible in the Boost C++ library
as described here:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_34_0/libs/pool/doc/concepts.html
Each pool allocates elements of a fixed size, so every
element type in a mesh gets its own pool. For instance
verts occupy a different pool than edges. Each pool
is comprised of multiple arrays of a fixed size and allocating
/freeing elements is simple as removing or adding a head
to a linked list. Since the list of free elements is interleaved
throughout the unused space in the arrays, the overhead
for storing the free list is only 1 pointer total per pool.
This makes building/destroying bmesh structures much faster
and saves quite a bit of memory as well.
