Game Actuator (restart or load a new file) will not keep some settings alive (as
we had in 2.49).
In 2.49 the solution used was to use Blender globals (G.fileflags) to get/set
those settings. That was causing the blender file to change if you change the
material mode from the game.
In 2.5 this never worked, and the implementation was buggy (it's relying in the
scene settings, which get reset ever time we restart/load a new file).
My idea for fixing this is to create a new struct (GlobalSettings) where we
store any setting to be preserver during the course of the game. This is
specially important for options that require the game to restart/load new file
(graphic ones). But it later can be expanded to support other things such as
audio settings (e.g. volume), ...
I'm also planning to expand it for stereo and dome settings, but I prefer to
first get this committed and then build a new patch on top of that.
I had some problems in finding a correct way for build/link the blenderplayer
changes, so although it's working I'm not sure this is the best code (e.g. I
couldn't make forward declaration to work in GPG_Application.h for the struct
GlobalSettings so I ended up including KX_KetsjiEngine.h)
[note: I talked with Brecht and he find this is an ok solution. He implemented
it originally so it's good to have his go. However I still think there must be a way to make forward declaration to work. I will see with other devs if there is a better solution]
[also I'm likely renaming glsl to flags later if there are more settings stored in the flags to be used. But for now we are only handling glsl flags]
- make ortho grid drawing use vertex arrays
- make perspective view floor drawing cache result of UI_ThemeColorShade so its not called on every line.
- make perspective view floor only loop once on each axis when the grid floor isnt being drawn (was looking over all grid lines for no reason).
- add UI_GetColorPtrShade3ubv() to replace UI_GetColorPtrBlendShade3ubv() when no blending is needed.
- use 'const float *' and array size in some function declarations.
- replace macros for BLI_math functions INPF, VECCOPY, VECADD etc.
- remove unused VertRen.clip struct member.
- remove static squared_dist() from 2 files, replace with BLI_math function len_squared_v3v3().
- use vertex arrays for drawing clipping background in the 3D viewport.
and it's callback.
Also do not use char constants like 'NAVM' which is casting to int.
And added defautl section to switch in KX_NavMeshObject::DrawNavMesh.
*The eModifierType_NavMesh enum define was added before WeightVG ones, in ModifierType, breaking file load for WeightVG modifier. New modifier should always be added at the end of that enum!
- rearrange structs to work for 64bit
- define all vars before goto's
- ifdefs for qsort_r/qsort_s
- dont cast pointers to int only for NULL checks
- dont printf STR_String directly, get the char pointer from it
also minor change to gpu py module, no need to pass empty tuple to PyObject_CallObject, can just be NULL
* The new NAVMESH Modifier did not show any buttons, console printed errors instead!
* Poll of "PHYSICS_PT_game_obstacles" panel caused errors as well, self instead of cls was used as argument.
* Check to show/hide buttons in "WORLD_PT_game_physics_obstacles" panel did not worked due to wrong ENUM identifier ('None' instead if 'NONE')
* Moved "SCENE_PT_navmesh" panel out of properties_scene.py into the properties_game.py where it belongs and renamed it. Also, don't use abreviations in Panel Headers (Navmesh > Navigaion Mesh)
* Code cleanup, removed unnescecary code.
* bpy.types.Panel > Panel
Add navigation mesh capability to the BGE, both by logic bricks and python.
Add tools to creation navigation mesh in the creator:
- manualy
- automatically from existing mesh with "object.create_navmesh" operator
- automatically from existing mesh with "Navigation mesh" modifier
Editing navigation mesh is possible via special modifier edit mode.
Creation and modification of Navigation mesh is also possible at runtime in the BGE.

Warning: No upgrade is provided for blend files created under the branch.
If you load a blend with navigation data created with a branch
build, it will likely crash blender or behave incorrectly.
only functional change is the uiWidgetBase struct stored up to 64 verts, changed this to 36 since thats the most that is used atm, added assert if this ever changes.

From description:
One thing with the outliner filter box is it only filters items that
are currently visible. To find what you want you need to manually
expand a few levels so that what you want to find is visible.
This small patch expands items when filtering is done - effectively
turning it into a search.
Currently this does not alter the datablocks view as expanding all
entries takes waaaay tooooo long.
I prevent the expansion of RNA entries for userprefs which prevents
infinite recursion but the datablocks list is just too big for this
approach. I think it would need a custom outliner_build_tree for a
full search.
shader = gpu.export_shader(scene,material)
Returns the GLSL shader that blender generates to produce the visual effect
of material in scene for the purpose of reusing the shader in an external engine.
This function is meant to be used in a material exporter so that the GLSL
shader can be exported entirely. The return value is a dictionary containing the
shader source code and all associated data.
The full documentation is under sphinx.
Warning: there has been an API between the patch and this commit:
uniform['lamp'] and uniform['image'] now return python reference to
ID block instead of ID name as before. The X3D exporter that uses this
function must be adapted.
