So for the 2.4 release, both bullet AND sumo will be enabled. You can choose in the world buttons which physics engine is active for a scene.
sorry if this breaks your builds!
- test build alpha splash
- version update to 239 in code
- release names are 2.40-alpha1
Note about release names; this is really an alpha still, not a release
candidate, so cannot call it 2.40-pre either.
Naming conventions is a discussion still... hope this works as a compromise
for now.
in this case only the new blenderdummy.cpp and utilities.cpp have to be compiled
- restructured gui:
* domain options split up into 2 sections
* added compressibility and refinement settings
* added inflow/outflow object types
- increased progress bar by 1
- XCode project
- Scons :
scons stopped working for Os X in the last month (dont know when) :
* the '.' and '..' keywords in CCPPATH
are not recognized anymore for sconscripts compiling files at
a sub level
* when doing a scons clean, the 3 subdirs in build dir are removed
and scons then fail to recreate them (exten, intern, source)
this commit solve the first problem as a temp workaround
for the latter simply recreate the dirs manually
I will investigate that further when on vacations, which i should already
be.
;(
all 3 build systems are now working on Os X
The new defines for use_bullet are currently set as false until testing can take place to ensure proper compilation on those systems. The existing use_bullet='true' on the windows platform was left untouched.
Please ensure that variables are defined on _all_ platforms in the future instead of just defining them for the system you're currently developing under.
using bandoler's patch as a basis (thanks!).
A couple of notes:
- This is for windows only, I did not have a chance to try linux yet.
- SConscript for PHY_Bullet may need tweaking (plus support
for other platforms), but at least it's in there :)
Any problems, shout :)
* add some ENV = os.environ's here and there (help those who have msvc toolkit installed)
Note for OSX users: check from your config.opts the correct info for the precompiled ftgl lib is used.
1) fix evil use of internal scons interfaces that breaks latest scons version.
2) a hack to turn on new CCGSUBSURF stuff by adding -DUSE_CCGSUBSURFLIB
to extra_flags. This is currently the default for all platforms except
win32 (due solely to my ignorance of win32 compiler flags).
not affect anyone.
Changed:
if user_openexr == 'false':
defines += ['WITH_OPENEXR']
To what it was suppose to be:
user_openexr = 'false':
if user_openexr == 'true':
defines += ['WITH_OPENEXR']
This was messed up on most platforms, somewhere when adding them all
I switched to the bad version and continued with that...
I'm on irc if anyone else has any commits to clean this up. I'm going
through things and trying to make sure its working for everyone.
Sorry,
Kent
To enable it you will need to download OpenEXR and install it.
For the Makefiles you will need to set WITH_OPENEXR=true
and set NAN_OPENEXR to point to where OpenEXR is installed.
For scons you'll need to remove config.opts to get the new options
so you can enable OpenEXR, I was not able to get blender to link
with scons so the scons stuff may need to be tweaked a little but
I think it should work.
For other platform managers The OpenEXR stuff is similar to QUICKTIME
you need to define WITH_OPENEXR and setup the library stuff and
as you'll notice in this commit there are two extra files.

Render:
- New; support for dual CPU render (SDL thread)
Currently only works with alternating scanlines, but gives excellent
performance. For both normal render as unified implemented.
Note the "mutex" locks on z-transp buffer render and imbuf loads.
- This has been made possible by major cleanups in render code, especially
getting rid of globals (example Tin Tr Tg Tb Ta for textures) or struct
OSA or using Materials or Texture data to write to.
- Made normal render fully 4x32 floats too, and removed all old optimizes
with chars or shorts.
- Made normal render and unified render use same code for sky and halo
render, giving equal (and better) results for halo render. Old render
now also uses PostProcess options (brightness, mul, gamma)
- Added option ("FBuf") in F10 Output Panel, this keeps a 4x32 bits buffer
after render. Using PostProcess menu you will note an immediate re-
display of image too (32 bits RGBA)
- Added "Hue" and "Saturation" sliders to PostProcess options
- Render module is still not having a "nice" API, but amount of dependencies
went down a lot. Next todo: remove abusive "previewrender" code.
The last main global in Render (struct Render) now can be re-used for fully
controlling a render, to allow multiple "instances" of render to open.
- Renderwindow now displays a smal bar on top with the stats, and keeps the
stats after render too. Including "spare" page support.
Not only easier visible that way, but also to remove the awkward code that
was drawing stats in the Info header (extreme slow on some ATIs too)
- Cleaned up blendef.h and BKE_utildefines.h, these two had overlapping
defines.
- I might have forgotten stuff... and will write a nice doc on the architecture!
* LarstiQ patched SConstruct to have it name tarballs and zips better for 'scons release'
* bump version numbers to 234
* added splash.jpg and datatoc'ed version
* add release notes
People can now do still some final tests. Can you feel the heat?
- Enabled the NDEBUG define (to disable assertions) on all platforms in scons.
This is already the default in Makefiles.
- Free MEdge data after decimating, it is not valid anymore.
* added 'scons wininst'. This will create a NSIS installer for blender.
This will need the NSIS tool in your path (makensis.exe).
The needed scriptfile will be committed seperately, so remember
to 'cvs update -d'
* tested on windows and linux, so other platform maintainers, please
check that the build process is not broken.
- after building blender and blenderplayer an archive is created in bin/ containing all necessary files
- you'll need now python2.3 or newer for SConstruct to go through correctly. This is not a problem,
since Blender requires python2.3 now anyway.
- the release target has been done for linux, win32 and os x, other platforms get a
warning message after blender has been built, just no package. See warning message for instructions
- for linux, osx and win32 the blenderplayer target has been enabled for default
- the build is logged to build.log for all platforms except win32. If you want it, you'll need tee.exe from
http://unxutils.sf.net in your path (I put it in C:\\windows) and change the first if check in the
SConstruct accordingly
http://crd.lbl.gov/~xiaoye/SuperLU/
This is a library to solve sparse matrix systems (type A*x=B). It is able
to solve large systems very FAST. Only the necessary parts of the library
are included to limit file size and compilation time. This means the example
files, fortran interface, test files, matlab interface, cblas library,
complex number part and build system have been left out. All (gcc) warnings
have been fixed too.
This library will be used for LSCM UV unwrapping. With this library, LSCM
unwrapping can be calculated in a split second, making the unwrapping proces
much more interactive.
Added OpenNL (Open Numerical Libary):
http://www.loria.fr/~levy/OpenNL/
OpenNL is a library to easily construct and solve sparse linear systems. We
use a stripped down version, as an interface to SuperLU.
This library was kindly given to use by Bruno Levy.
with all needed files in Ressources dir (.Blanguages, .bfont.ttf, locale)
and with unwanted CVS dirs and DS_Store files removed.
binary is also stripped before inclusion in Bundle.
Sconstruct modified so that Blender build on 10.3 without any additionnal
download than source + darwin libs.
defaults settings correct for 10.3.
fixed bug # 1260 : added MT_NDEBUG flag at top-level.
the directories decrypt, deflate, encrypt, inflate, readstreamglue,
sign, writeblenfile and writestreamglue.
Sirdude was so kind to modify the makefiles, so SCons and
Make are ready to build with the new Blender.
Visual Studio workspaces, solutions and projectfiles still need
to be updated (I'll do the .vcprojs and .sln myself after this commit).
Runtimes created with the Blender Publisher are not anymore
recognised - if you want these available, you'll have to convert
them first to .blends with the Publisher.
* Updates to the cygwin build.
the dna.c file used to be generated with a full path. Cygwin doesn't like
this. The problem was with some cflags and linkflags that are used to build
makesdna.exe
Hos nicely pointed this out and proposed a solution.
Now, these flags are only added to the command when the platform != 'cygwin'.
* Updated some variables in SConstruct.
[SCons] Build with Solid as default when enabling the gameengine in the build process
[SCons] Build solid and qhull from the extern directory and link statically against them
That was about it.
There are a few things that needs double checking:
* Makefiles
* Projectfiles
* All the other systems than Linux and Windows on which the build (with scons) has been successfully tested.
This is contributed by Jonathan Harris. I paste here his comments for further reference:
MSVC will open the database automatically when you debug blender.exe.
The database needs to be explicitly closed before rebuilding by removing
it from the MSVC7 "Solution Explorer" window. Add it back after the build.
TODO: .sbr intermediate files are created in the build tree. These
should be removed by a clean but aren't.
* Added the following flags to config.opts:
- PYTHON_LINKFLAGS
- PLATFORM_LIBS
- PLATFORM_LIBPATH
- PLATFORM_LINKFLAGS
Backup your original config.opts file and run scons again to get these new
options.
* Use freetype-config instead of pkg-config for determining the freetype2
flags.
* The new PYTHON_LINKFLAGS now enable the dynamic linking on Linux and
possibly other platforms as well. This should resolve all linking problems
reported to the mailing lists. (At least for Linux, I can't test other
platforms).
* Default build dir is now: ../build/<platform>/
with <platform> ofcourse the platform you're building on.
This option is still configurable in config.opts. It was just a feature
request.
* Allow the user to specify a different config.opts file from the command
line. This one was at my todo, but Kester was kind enough to implement this
in Tuhopuu2 already. Thanks Kester!
To generate/use a different options file:
scons CONFIG=your_config_options_file
