Issue was that the Shader tree execution changed the ShaderInput.
Changes are that the UI is updated that only the main material will have the pass_index this is displayed in the "render pipeline options" panel.
When the material is not a node material the pass_index will be shown at the "options" panel
To test enable nodes on the material
Add a new input material
change the pass_index of the material (render pipeline options)
Enable RenderPass material ID and use the compositor to read out the material pass

Addons are checked for their timestamps and reloaded when it changes but this failed when, 2 addons had the same name since different times caused 2 reloads on every redraw.
Now when duplicate addons are in the path now give a error message in the UI and print path conflict in the console and don't thrash reloading.
this will reconnect nodes as if the deleted node is muted.
Operation is added to the space_node node menu and to the keymap as CTRL-X
to test this just add some nodes to the space_node
select one or multiple nodes and press CTRL-X
It should reconnect the nodes as they were muted
limitations:
1. it performs a delete and reconnect per node. It does not evaluate all selected nodes as one whole
2. mute only supports Value, Vector and Color data types, so does this feature
3. not usable for nodes where input and output does not match (like colorToBW)
Where reconnect could not be preformed the links will be removed from the model.
Undo works with this delete with reconnect.
A mesh can consist out of multiple material. Take a character with clothing's. the skin can be a different material as the different clothing's. During compositing it is a common use-case to only do a part of the composit on only a specific material. Currently this can not be done.
In blender movies this feature is known to be implemented, but until now it never got integrated into trunk.
Proposal
With material index the Blender internal renderer will be capable of creating a buffer containing the material indexes of the first pixel-hit. This will be implemented in the same manner as the object index.
In the compositor the ID Mask node can be used to extract the information out of the Render pass.
Impact
User interface
On the properties-space the next changes will be done
Scene⇒Render layer⇒Passes⇒Material index will be added
Material⇒Options⇒Pass index will be added
DNA
Material struct will get an new field called “index”. this will be a short-type.
Material struct the field pad will be removed.
A new Render-layer pass will be added (bit 1«18)
RNA
Material RNA is updated (based on “pass index” from object)
Render layer RNA is updated (based on IndexOB)
Blender internal renderer
The Blender internal renderer will process the render pass as a copy of the Object index.
Blender compositor
The render layer input will get a new output socket called “IndexMA”
Usage
An example on how to use material index can be found at:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/lib/tests/compositing/composite_materialindex.blend
This is also example of a commit message longer than the commit itself :)
Toggling options on the selection is better done as a generic operator.
Replace ARMATURE_OT_flags_set and POSE_OT_flags_set with WM_OT_context_collection_boolean_set and use menus to access it with specific settings.
This way its easy make a key shortcut which toggles any boolean on any collection - sequences, metaballs, objects, bones etc.
- comment/remove assignments from values to themselves.
- add case break statements (no functional change but some source code checkers notice).
- fix python errors when the sculpt brush is None.
In addition the billboards can be scaled by the particle velocity with optional head and tail factors (similar to line drawing options). This allows for pseudo-motionblur effects.
This patch adds anisotropic filtering of textures in the viewport and the BGE. The quality of the filtering is adjustable in the user preferences under System. For more information on anisotropic filtering:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering
One current limitation of this setup (having the option a user preference) is it makes runtimes more troublesome. Runtimes don't have user preferences set, so for now the blender player defaults to 2x AF. Options will be added later to change this value (probably a command line option).
- fix python error when the object had an empty material slot
- initialize start frame from the current frame
- set frame range to 300000 max (which is blenders own maximum)
- mesh order was arbitrary, instead use selected -> active, removed invert option.
also fix for missing include in bpy_extras.view3d_utils
a) Enable the possibility to remove the "air bubble" around submerged collision object. This feature is enabled as standard for new files. The code was found in elbeem by nudelZ, coded and provided by Nils Thürey (thanks!)
b) Old baked files gets deleted if a new bake gets started (were overwritten before and resulted in weird old bake + new bake mixture) (idea by nudelZ)
