Was adding each face with a remove doubles option that made conversion increasingly slower for larger meshes, this would often hang blender when starting with the BGE with larger meshes.
Replace btTriangleMesh()->addTriangle() with btTriangleIndexVertexArray()
YoFrankie level_1_home.blend starts a third faster, level_nut about twice as fast.
- previous commit was also incorrect using the original meshes vert locations rather then the vert locations that came from the derived mesh.
- Softbody is relying on removing doubles at 0.01 to give stable results, this no longer works but seems a bit dodgy anyway. Maybe some post-processing filter could fix up a mesh for bullet softbody.
In a simple test with ~12000 verts, overall BGE startup time went from ~4.5 sec to a bit under a second.
- before adding each vert it did a check for a duplicates.
- Using RAS_Polygon verts can give a lot of duplicates because the verts also store UV's and normals.
- Was increasing the array one item at a time, now resize the array once.
- Use the blender mesh mvert array rather then RAS_TexVert's, so needed to include some DNA headers.
[#17974] two small fix for blender 2.48 (memory leak and uninitalized vars)

The multi-thread cache service is activated only on multi-core processors.
It consists in loading, decoding and caching the video frames in a
separate thread. The cache size is 5 decoded frames and 30 raw frames.
Note that the opening of video file/stream/camera is not multi-thread:
you will still experience a delay at the VideoFFmpeg object creation.
Processing of the video frame (resize, loading to texture) is still done
in the main thread. Caching is automatically enabled for video file,
video streaming and video camera.
Video streaming now works correctly: the videos frames are loaded
at the correct rate. Network delays and frequency drifts are automatically
compensated.
Note: an http video source is always treated as a streaming source,
even though the http protocol allows seeking. For the user it means that
he cannot define start/stop range and cannot restart the video except
by reopening the source. Pause/play is however possible.
Video camera is now correctly handled on Linux: it will not slow down the BGE.
A video camera is treated as a streaming source.
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.
btPoint3 has been deprecated, it was already a typedef to btVector3
replace std::vector by btAlignedObjectArray when storing Bullet objects, because MSVC STL implementation has some bugs, preventing to contain aligned objects
(btVector3 is 16-byte aligned, to allow SIMD)
Python dir(ob) for game types now includes attributes names,
* Use "__dict__" rather then "__methods__" attribute to be Python 3.0 compatible
* Added _getattr_dict() for getting the method and attribute names from a PyObject, rather then building it in the macro.
* Added place holder *::Attribute array, needed for the _getattr_up macro.
Removed a check in Python API touch.setProperty() for the property name on the sensor owner before allowing the name to be set - it makes no sense and isnt checked when creating the sensor.
- SCA_DelaySensor.py indent error making epydoc fail.
Previously only the first collision would trigger an event (no collisions a negative event ofcourse)
With the Pulse option enabled, any change to the set of colliding objects will trigger an event.
Added this because there was no way to count how many sheep were on a platform in YoFrankie without running a script periodically.
Changes in collision are detected by comparing the number of objects colliding with the last event, as well as a hash made from the object pointers.
Also changed the touch sensors internal list of colliding objects to only contain objects that match the property or material.
- pulse isnt a great name, could change this.
* Where possible use vec.setValue(x,y,z) to assign values to a vector instead of vec= MT_Vector3(x,y,z), for MT_Point and MT_Matrix types too.
* Comparing TexVerts was creating 10 MT_Vector types - instead compare as floats.
* Added SG_Spatial::SetWorldFromLocalTransform() since the local transform is use for world transform in some cases.
* removed some unneeded vars from UpdateChildCoordinates functions
* Py API - Mouse, Ray, Radar sensors - use PyObjectFrom(vec) rather then filling the lists in each function. Use METH_NOARGS for get*() functions.
- variables that shadow vers declared earlier
- Py_Fatal print an error to the stderr
- gcc was complaining about the order of initialized vars (for classes)
- const return values for ints and bools didnt do anything.
- braces for ambiguous if statements
This was committed in revision 2832 but never accounted for existing object name hashes which existed since revision 2.
Its possible to update the names elsewhere but unlikely anyone ever used this successfully so removing.
* Made GameLogic.addActiveActuator(actu, bool) to raise an error if the actuator is not in the list. Before it would allow any value as the actuator and fail silently (makes debugging scripts more difficult).
* Allow the actuator to be a string which is convenient if you dont want to change the settings of the actuator.
* Added activate/deactivate functions to the controller, this is more logical since the GameLogic.addActiveActuator() function is running through the controller anyway.
GameLogic.addActiveActuator(controller.getActuator("SomeAct"), True)
...can be replaced with...
controller.activate("SomeAct")
* fixed segfaults in CListValue.index(val) and CListValue.count(val) when the pyTypes could not be converted into a CValue.
* added scene.objects to replace scene.getObjectList()
* added function names to PyArg_ParseTuple() so errors will include the function names
* removed cases of PyArg_ParseTuple(args,"O",&pyobj) where METH_O ensures a single argument.
* Made PyObjectFrom use ugly python api rather then Py_BuildValue(), approx %40 speedup for functions that return Python vector and matrix types like ob.orientation.
Use 'const char *' rather then the C++ 'STR_String' type for the attribute identifier of python attributes.
Each attribute and method access from python was allocating and freeing the string.
A simple test with getting an attribute a loop shows this speeds up attribute lookups a bit over 2x.
scene.getObjectList()[-1] works like a python sequence.
removed some STR_String creation that was only used to do comparisons, in a simple expressions benchmark this made logic use 4% less overall.
* 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.
vector in perspective mode. This is default OpenGL behavior, but
by now this optimization is really insignificant. Works in both
the 3d view and game engine.
This patch modifies the way the setParent actuator and KX_GameObject::setParent() function
works when parenting to a compound object: the collision shape of the object being parented
is dynamically added to the coumpound shape.
Similarly, unparenting an object from a compound object will cause the child collision shape
to be dynamically removed from the parent shape provided that is was previously added with
setParent.
Note: * This also works if the object is parented to a child of a compound object: the
collision shape is added to the compound shape of the top parent.
* The collision shape is added with the transformation (position, scale and orientation)
it had at the time of the parenting.
* The child shape is rigidly attached to the compound shape, the transformation is not
affected by any further change in position/scale/orientation of the child object.
* While the child shape is added to the compound shape, the child object is removed from
the dynamic world to avoid superposition of shapes (one for the object itself and
one for the compound child shape). This means that collision sensors on the child
object are disabled while the child object is parent to a compound object.
* There is no difference when setParent is used on a non-compound object: the child
object is automatically changed to a static ghost object to avoid bad interaction
with the parent shape; collision sensors on the child object continue to be active
while the object is parented.
* The child shape dynamically added to a compound shape modifies the inertia of the
compound object but not the mass. It participates to collision detection as any other
"static" child shape.
