This replaces the hard-coded '%PROFILE%\Application Data\..." path
with the correct language-dependant CSIDL_APPDATA.
PLEASE NOTE!
Checks for the previous location have now been REMOVED. Any data
saved in the old hard-coded location will no longer be found by
Blender (this will only affect users of non-english windows.)
The installer has been updated to help the user to migrate their data
to the new location of their choice, if necessary.
Order of preference for .blender on windows is now the following:
1) %HOME% environment var
2) Installation Directory (location of blender.exe)
3) "Current User" (CSIDL_APPDATA)
4) "All Users" (CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA)
[#8067] external texture plugin thread-safe modifications
Submitted By: David Anderson (davywavy)
It makes it so the "result" array is passed in, instead of a global var.
I expanded the patch so it will play nice with older plugins that are not
thread safe as well.
I also updated the existing plugins in the release, so they are thread safe.
--------------- What do people think of this.... ------------------
This should maybe be talked about in the functionality board or something,
but what do people think of adding in default texture/sequence plugins.
or making a seperate tree like lib for plugins.
The reason I ask is we have had a couple of upgrades to the plugin system.
(supporting float buffers for sequencer, and this one for textures)
http://www.cs.umn.edu/~mein/blender/plugins does not store revisions of
plugins I just make sure they work with the latest version. This is
getting messy. I haven't upgraded a lot of them to use floats (I know,
I'm lazy, and now this will also make modifications to the plugins)
It would be nice to have some of the standard ones under revision control.
We also seem to be having an explosion of platforms supported. It would
be nice to have platform maintainers compiling plugins as well for releases.
(Its getting to be more work for me to keep up with things...)
I'll go back to my corner now and be quite. ;)

This converts exceptions in Warning in selected points of the registry module.
While I couldn't reproduce the segfault ( I received the Py error as expected), this isn't a bad idea anyway, since the BPy C counterpart was discarding the error anyway, making it a warning is a bit more inline with its meaning.
The exception is not preventable nor fixable from a script's point of view, so better to silence it and print a warning to the console instead.
needed to add a small value to the baking distance for it to include faces of that distance (maybe should make this happen from the user interface too)
Extension node attributes are now read and stored as ID
props for the following Node types:
-Object Nodes
-Group Nodes
-LOD Nodes
-DOF Nodes
-Inline Light Point Nodes
The extension data is written back out on export.
Note that this commit only adds support for attribute extensions.
Completely new node types via the extension record are still
unsupported.
Replaced the use of remove doubles with some new custom 'face welding'
code that wil clean up meshes on import.This will not remove any faces
or do any edge collapse and so is a more suitable method of cleaning
up imported meshes. This same code could potentially be of use when
importing other formats as well (such as DXF...)
The latter is now obsolete and will be soon
removed.
Some tiny build tweaks for darwin committed
in preparation of bigger changes for proper
SDK suport both on intel and ppc
A new tool for for fixing colors on meshes imported from other files with
conflicting color palettes has been added to the FLT toolbar script. This
will find the closest match for all the colors in the faces of selected
meshes and update their baked vertex color representation.
Also added a small tweak to the 'update all' tool which will fix black faces
Several transform bugs in the flt importer have been fixed. This included
parent/child relationships and matrices not importing correctly along with
some problems with the import scale option.
it is now in a state where it can be safely
merged with trunk.
Note: basic icons were provided but I'm not
an icondesigner and working in a 16x15 grid
is way too small for me, so feel free to
change them.
[#8428] 'Editmesh_active' theme colour not accessible via Python
bugfix problem where saving a theme would raise and error when ~/.blender didnt exist.
bugfix for file selector staying open (introduced with own undo resistant scripts)
Creates (or modifies) a DOF node based upon the active object.
Requires two selected objects, the non-active one will get its
DOF coordinate system from the active selected object. This assumes
that 1 Blender unit == 10 meters
Maya uses OBJ's UV's to generate seams, some people complained that models imported from blender didnt work well in maya.
It was faster to write every faces UV (without doing a remove doubles), but sharing UV coords makes smaller files and might also be more efficient in other applications.
