* Fixed mixdown volume being int instead of float
* Fixed audio muting for sequencer not working
* Added 3D listener settings with RNA (not working in GE yet)
issues like Shift+R (repeat last) not giving capital R in the text
editor. There is also new modal handler list at the window level,
and the API call will always add it to that one now, since modal
handlers were not used in other levels.
The order used to be:
* window modal + keymap
* area modal + keymap
* region modal + keymap
Now it is:
* window modal
* region keymap
* area keymap
* window keymap
New stuff
- Bending springs for hair dynamics.
Code cleanup & optimization
- Disabled reactor particles temporarily for cleanup, it's a clumsy system that will be replaced with something better.
- Removed child seams, something better will come here too :)
- Normal particle drawing data is now saved between redraws if the particles don't move between redraws.
* For example rotating the 3d view is now realtime even with 1M particles.
- Many random values for particles now come from a lookup table making things much faster.
- Most accessed small point cache functions are now much faster as macros.
- Lot's of general code cleanup.
- Nothing big should have changed so if something doesn't work like it used to it's probably just a typo somewhere :)
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
- 'center', while Ctrl is held select objects from their center location
- 'enumerate', while Alt is held, give a list of objects under the mouse
- Object selection menu now uses icons with names
- operator object.select_name(name, extend=False)
- keybindings so combinations of Ctrl/Alt/Shift can be used (like in 2.4x)
- logic text input field was using deprecated ID_SCRIPT rather then ID_TXT
details
- added comments to DNA_ID.h ID types
- removed unused ID types Sector and Life
- added uiIconFromID() to get an icon from the object.
- using name for selection is weak but currently there isnt a really good way to do this.
#19345: can't get out of grayed out pointer field.
#19342: item_pointerR fields can't be cleared with one item.
#19341: fix hanging tooltips when manipulating regions.
#19339: context panel still allowed tabbing, but it has no header.
#19334: editing SSS settings crashed previewrender.
#19330: object mode could not be switched on from the header menu.
* Loading newly saved files (where linked-libs were used) crashed.
However, libraries still don't get loaded correctly yet for some reason...
* Pointer layout-items now draw without their UI text if their name is set to "" (i.e. text=""), making the ones with icons appear normal. This is kindof a hack, since it would be better to expose icon_only, but this way is less work.
Appending and Linking
* Linking Operator, invokes filebrowser for Append/Link
* Separated the append/link function into three parts:
** BLO_library_append_begin finds main for appending
** BLO_library_append_named_part appends one Object,Group, Material, ...
** BLO_library_append_end actually reads and expands the libraries
NOTE 1:
I also changed the returned properties for the filebrowser operators to the following convention:
"path" - the full path to a file or directory, means what is in directory + filename buttons in filebrowser
"directory" - the content of the directory button in filebrowser
"filename" - the content of the filename button in filebrowser
Usually only path should be required, but in some cases it might be more convenient to retrieve the parts separately.
Ton, Brecht: If you have time to take a look, let me know if anything needs to be fixed.
- Hair dynamics have their own panel in particle settings with the settings from cloth panel that apply to hair.
- Basic internal friction force to quickly emulate self collisions and volume preservation. (Still very early code, but gives some idea of what's possible).
- Softbody simulation is no longer used for hair.
* Old files with sb dynamics should just load the hair without dynamics so new dynamics can be applied.
* Invasion of particles exceptions in sb code is finally over.
- Collisions with other objects are disabled for now and will be worked out in the future.
Other changes/fixes:
- Particle mode editing flag wasn't saved properly.
- Some old files with edited hair didn't load correctly.
- Disabled delete & specials menu in particle mode for non-hair editing.
- Fixed yet one more cloth & softbody pointcache update issue.
- Disconnect/connect hair now uses only the deformed mesh so it works correctly also for subsurfed emitters.
- Hair editing now updates correctly with a moving emitter.
* Enable cache for high res + new preview
* Bugfix for smoke banding (in cooperation with N_T)
Hint: Work-in-progress regarding collision objects so can be broken, didn't test
Hint2: jahka enabled a general particle panel but
* bake button doesn't work
* step is not supported for cloth
* several other things there ;)
* Added a new option ('Fixed Position') for Follow Path constraint which allows you to constrain an object/bone to some fixed position along the curve. Unlike the default mode of operation, this doesn't depend on time unless you explicitly animate the offset percentage parameter associated with this.
* Made old (pre 2.5) files saved with armatures in pose mode load in pose mode again.
moved CU_2D to Nurb->flag in do_versions
This made simple type checks confusing to read.
many... if( (nu->type & 7)==CU_BEZIER)
replaced with ... if(nu->type == CU_BEZIER)
made setting rna curve_2d clamp the Z values. still more RNA/UI changes to do.
Multidim. arrays can now be modified at any level, for example:
struc.arrayprop = x
struc.arrayprop[i] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j][k] = x
etc...
Approriate rvalue type/length checking is done.
To ensure all works correctly, I wrote automated tests in release/test/rna_array.py.
These tests cover: array/item access, assignment on different levels, tests that proper exceptions are thrown on invalid item access/assignment.
The tests use properties of the RNA Test struct defined in rna_test.c. This struct is only compiled when building with BF_UNIT_TEST=1 scons arg.
Currently unit tests are run manually by loading the script in the Text Editor.
Here's the output I have: http://www.pasteall.org/7644
Things to improve here:
- better exception messages when multidim. array assignment fails. Those we have currently are not very useful for multidim.
- add tests for slice assignment
* bring back 'player' libtype, after investigation with ideasman.
scons/mingw works nicely, for some reason msvc fails to link still, will look further into it.
NOTE: this needs changes to stubs.c, but need to check with ideasman_42 how to fix with cmake. Probably linking order issues, but stubs.c currently generates warnings for msvc (redefinition of funcs) and errors for mingw (same redefinitions). Removing the offending lines from stubs.c fixes that.
- Some big refresh issues with softbody & cloth point cache usage should now be fixed.
- Removed sticky objects from particles (better stuff will come back when I get to updating reactor particles).
- Some initial easy memory efficiency cleanup for ParticleData struct. The ultimate goal is to get particles less memory hungry -> more particles possible in single scene.
- Wrong path timing clamping caused hair particles to seem disappeared when changing between normal<->hair particles.
- "Calculate to current frame" in cache buttons baked instead of the intended function.
- Boids particle data is now a bit better organized.
* further cleaning of 'player' stuff. Now only 3 libs are remaining, of which ideally the stubs lib will be fixed at some point, fading away into the dark history of not-so-nice code. The current blenderplayer part is still a little bit hackish, I'll see if I can find a better alternative, for now it works good enough.
* first working changes to get blenderplayer linking
* blenderplayer/ moved into source/ (CMakeLists.txt changed for that too)
* added externs for bprogname to gp_ghost, so that it links properly
- Baked point caches for particles, cloth and softbody can now be edited in particle mode.
* This overwrites the old cloth/sb cache editmode editing.
* The type of editable system is chosen from a menu.
* For particles the current particle system and it's current cache are used.
- Currently this only works for caches that are in memory, but some automatic conversion from disk to memory and back can be implemented later.
- All tools from hair editing can't be applied to point caches and are hidden in the tool panel and specials menu. Some functionality like subdividing paths can be later implemented in a slightly different way from how it works for hair.
- Code is not yet optimized for speed, so editing might be slow sometimes.
Known issues:
- Cloth doesn't update properly while in particle mode, due to the way cloth modifier currently works. Daniel can you check on this?
- As "particle mode" is not only for particles any more some other name would be in place?
- Better icons are needed for the path, point, and tip-modes as the current icons from mesh edit mode are quite misleading.
- Direct editing of point velocities is not yet implemented, but will be in the future.
Other changes:
- Hair editing doesn't require a "make editable" button press any more.
- Multiple caches in single particle system disables changing emission properties.
- Unified ui code for all point cache panels.
* Defined in buttons_particle.py and imported for cloth, smoke & softbody.
- Proper disabling of properties in ui after baking point caches. (Daniel could you please make needed disable code for smoke panels as their functionality is not familiar to me.)
- Hair weight brush has been removed. Once hair dynamics is re-implemented I'll code a more useable alternative to the functionality.
Bug fixes:
- Unlinking particle settings crashed.
- Deleting the active object with particles in the scene crashed.
- Softbody didn't write point caches correctly on save.
* Shuffled some code around, and renamed some functions used for getting context info
- Split UI-buttons into a separate file from stroke-drawing code
- Removed some obsolete code (i.e. old paint code that used to be in _edit, but which has been moved to _paint).
* Made drawing in 3D-View default to using the active object as the owner of the Grease Pencil data. For now, the drawing code will therefore only show the GP data for the active object only. More work to come on this.
* Fixed freeing code for Objects/Scenes with GP data.
This commit is the start of the new Grease Pencil implementation. I've just ported the old code to make it work with operators, and to store its data in Grease-Pencil datablocks.
However, this is currently still really buggy, with only the barebones of the drawing/creation tools restored (no UI panels, no options). To use (not recommended), use D+S+move_mouse (and click when finished) for now. There are some rather serious event handling errors going on here...
I hoped for it to resolve the bug of loading sounds with relative paths didn't work, but Main.name isn't set before the sounds are loaded, so the bug resists!
Someone who is into file loading should please fix this!
* cache for low res (deactivating high res for now)
* new way of view3d rendering of smoke (no longer 3 axes) -using 3dtexture now (introduced into gpu/intern)
* introducing LZO and LZMA libs into extern (makefiles missing for now)
* reducing memory usage after simulating for the frame ended (freeing temporary buffers)
* splitting smoke into 2 modifier for the cache-sake (it cannot handle more than 1 cache on the same modifier-index)
* no color on gui anymore
* fixing non-power-of-2 resolutions (hopefully)
* fixing select-deselect of domain drawing bug
* fixing drawobject.c coding style (making Ton happy) ;-)
HINT #1: If scons doesn't work -> cmakefiles are up-to-date, couldn't test scons (but i tried to mantain them, too)
CODERS HINT #1: we really need a way to disable adding all modifiers through "Add Modifiers" dropdown!
WARNING #1: before applying this commit, deactivate your SMOKE DOMAIN in your old files and save them then. You can open them then savely after that.
WARNING #2: File and cache format of smoke can be changed, this is not final!
