Notes:
* Sequence transform strip uses G.scene global, this is commented
out now, should be fixed.
* Etch-a-ton code was most difficult to merge. The files already in
2.5 got merged, but no new files were added. Calls to these files
are commented out with "XXX etch-a-ton". editarmature.c and
transform_snap.c were complex to merge. Martin, please check?
* Game engine compiles and links again here for scons/make/cmake
(player still fails to link).
In particular, the Bullet vehicle seems broken, and some soft-body demos don't work.
No new features or benefits are added yet, but a few improvements are planned before Blender 2.49 release.
Please update the build systems, and add those 3 files:
extern/bullet2/src/BulletCollision/CollisionDispatch/btActivatingCollisionAlgorithm.cpp
extern/bullet2/src/BulletCollision/CollisionDispatch/btGhostObject.cpp
extern/bullet2/src/BulletCollision/CollisionShapes/btConvexPointCloudShape.cpp
I'll watch the Blender mailing list, in case this commit causes some issues.
* add preliminary support for building Blender on 64bit Windows with _msvc_. The SConstruct should automatically detect if you are on a 64bit Windows and if you have that 64bit build is assumed. If you're not, 32bit build is assumed.
NOTE: this is still very much wip, so your mileage may vary. Do please report on b25 taskforce ML in case of trouble.
NOTE2: many of the libs are being linked in statically
NOTE3: hopefully I didn't break anything for other build platforms (mingw, linux, osx).
NOTE4: comes after NOTE3
* giving compileflags, cc_compileflags and cxx_compileflags to BlenderLib() now actually overrides any other setting (so there's no unclarity when ie. conflicting options are being specified in REL_CFLAGS et al). These are set after either release or debug flags, but before any *_WARN flags (so those stay maintained).
* add cxx_compileflags for GE parts on win32-vc to have better performance.
* NOTE: if platform maintainers (OSX and Linux) could check and do the same for their systems. Not vital, but probably very, very much welcomed by GE users.
I did a very drastic cleanup for the different libgroups, there's now only a few left. It compiled with scons/msvc, will be testing in a bit on linux, too.
If you get any problems, please reply to this commit message on the taskforce ML.
Enable soft body collision clusters by default.
Add option to 'disable collision' button between soft body and rigid body connected by constraint (option was already available between two rigid bodies)
#if defined (__sun) || defined (__sun__) || defined (__sparc) || (defined (__APPLE__) && ! defined (__i386__))
Also includes a fix to uninitialized variable (can cause failing collisions).
If possible, report all changes to extern/bullet2 to http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/list
I changed sqrtf to sqrt in elbeem
in bullet2 I added defines found in floatpatch.h eventually
we should make a "floatpatch.h" that all of blender can use.

and noticed dos line endings in a bunch of files so ran
dos2unix on everything in bullet2.
Erwin, I noticed there are a few files that do not have
license info in them, couple of quick examples are: btDefaultMotionState.h
btHashMap.h btQuickprof.cpp
could you take a look at add where needed? If you want I can give a list
of files I think should get it added and or just add the standard one
say the one in src/btBulletCollisionCommon.h

1) re-allocate a pool allocator, if one of the soft body collision algorithms is larger than max pool element size
2) manage child shapes properly, and call RemoveReferences on the m_sparsesdf
Added Bullet/Gimpact concave collision detection to Blender. If your build system isn't updated yet, please add extern/bullet2/src/BulletCollision/Gimpact/*
This allows moving/dynamic concave triangle meshes (decomposing meshes into compound convex shapes, and using 'compound' shapes is still preferred)
Bullet logic bug in (de)activation/island management: deactivated 'fantom' objects do merge islands, in particular when connected by constraints. (fantom = object with collision detection but no collision response).
