* gameplayer is now probably not going to build without PNG turned ON.
To fix that it would be necessary to use #ifndef NOPNG around the GPC_Canvas::MakeScreenShot.
Since I don't this function it's working in 2.5 yet it's better to wait for that before doing it.
Originally we had 2DFilters (m_filtermanager) stored in RenderTools. That way filters were stored globally and were being called once per each scene. This was producing two big problems: (1) performance and (2) flexibility of use.
(1) Performance - To run the filters 2X == 2X slower
(2) flexibility of use - Very often we want the filter in the scene but not in the UI for example.
For those reasons I believe that 2DFilters with multiple scenes was very useless or unpredictable. I hope they work fine now.
To make it work as before (2.4) you can simply recreate the 2dfilter actuators across the scenes.
* * * * *
Imagine that we have:
(a) Main Scene
(b) Overlay Scene
in Main Scene the Z Buffer and RGB will be from the main scene.
in Overlay Scene the Z Buffer will be from the Overlay Scene and the RBG buffer is from both [(a + 2D Filter) + b].
So in pseudo code if we have a,b,c,d,e scenes we have: (2DFilterE(2DFilterD(2DFilterC(2DFilterB(2DFilterA(a) + b) + c) + d) + e)
I forgot to say in the last commit that those arguments are only for the BlenderPlayer.
we can now set external warpdata files.
2Do:
(1) convert relative to absolute paths for warpdata files
(2) investigate weird bug on lack of light in blenderplayer with warpmesh
... [old 2Do]
(3) documentation
(4) preserve scene settings (at least scene->gm.dome) even if you load a new file inside the game (e.g. Yo Frankie loading new levels)
2Do:
(1) open external warpdata file
(2) documentation
(3) preserve scene settings (at least scene->gm.dome) even if you load a new file inside the game (e.g. Yo Frankie loading new levels)
otherwise it's a nightmare to update all your files every time you change your projection system. See note.
Maybe SYS_WriteCommandLineInt/Float/String can be used for that. Gotta investigate further.
* Note: an external warpdata file is a must ! Currently every time you need to calibrate your system you have to update the warp file in all your demo files. This is terrible. I'm glad I *now* have a dome near by to test it ;)
* FYI: A recent 'Yo Frankie in a dome' video if you want to see how it works: http://www.vimeo.com/9629626 I'm going to record a better one tomorrow.
(1) the new text suggest what was the default eye separation before. Now I'm confident that changing the eye separation for the UI is a good move
(2) no big deal here. It's not reading the parameter from the command line. But does it ever read it?
(3) stubs.c update and glew linking statically. patch by Mitchell Stokes, thanks for that.
And now we finish 2009 with a building blenderplayer =D
* Added GLEW_STATIC where necessary to make Blender compile again
* First attempt at compiling blenderplayer again - compiles, but doesn't link yet
* removed deprecated SND_ functions from blenderplayer
1) SetDisplayArea was created in Blender but we forgot to set it in the player
2) Fix some SCons incs (using lists instead of strings)
3) added more nasty stubs calls (this file is getting big)
* typo fix from last commit
**) it's raining with bolts here and I have to turn the internet off. I couldnt hard test this commit but it looks like working. sorry if sometihng go wrong
a system crash and other issues on ATI/Apple, due to a buggy driver
(similar issues reported for other OpenGL applications). For now, work
around it by not using non-power-of-two textures on this combination.
* 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.
* 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
After talking with Ton and Campbell we agreed that it wouldn't hurt to have blenderplayer again (specially now since BGE is almost 100% working in 2.5).
However in order to make it link, I needed to bring back stubs, a lot of so-called bad calls.
I'm not sure how we should proceed from here, but it looks like people could start to take a look at source/blenderplayer/bad_level_calls_stubs/stubs.c and fix their own modules/functions
** NOTE: I removed the sound calls from BlenderPlayer. In order to fix it look at //XXX ADD SOUND in GPG_Application.cpp and GPC_Engine
*** tested in CMake+MSVC.
- Scons is not building !!! (why does the building systems have to be so different?)
And someone may like to fix make. (take a look at /trunk/source/blender/blenkernel/bad_level_call_stubs/Makefile )
**** it may work better inside /source/gameengine/GamePlayer
* Add BGE_CXXFLAGS so we can get rid of hard-coded BGE compiler settings. This was only done for windows, but now linuxers and osxers should be able to set BGE-specific optimisation too. See the windows default configs for example.
* Added Shading and Performance panels in the scene buttons,
containing the options previously in the 2.4x game menu.
* Added show framerate/debug/physics/warnings back in game menu.
* Moved these settings from G.fileflags to scene GameData.
* Enabled Display Lists by default.
* Some other small game scene button tweaks.
Logic Panel:
- world settings (moved from world)
... that includes physic engine selection + gravity
- game player (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
- stereo/dome (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
... separated stereom into stereoflag and stereomode
- properties
... (didn't touch it)
Buttons Game Panel:
(wip panel)
- Physics (moved from Logic Panel)
... it will be a datablock in the future (right Campbell ?)
- Material Physics (not currently implemented)
... a datablock link to the materials of an object + the dynamic physic variables
* NOTE:
in readfile.c::do_version I couldn't do if(scene->world). There is something wrong with scenes with an unlinked world. So so far we are ignoring the old values....
* ensure all SConscripts are ready for win64-vc (where necessary).
* ensure we have proper _DEBUG flag for Python when we're doing a debug build.
* some cleaning up of linking etc.
* ensure /EHsc is there for game engine modules.
* removed radiosity render code, DNA and RNA (left in radio render pass options), we'll get GI to replace this probably, better allow baking to vertex colors for people who used this.
* removed deprecated solid physics library, sumo integrations and qhull, a dependency
* removed ODE, was no longer being build or supported
* remove BEOS and AMIGA defines and references in Makefiles.
* Optimized RNA property lookups and path resolving, still can be
much better, but now the 1000 IPO example on bf-taskforce25
runs at reasonable speed.
* Also an optimization in the depsgraph when dealing with many
objects, this was actually also a bottleneck here.
* Started porting over to python, menus nearly done, header WIP.
* Game Properties panel is in python too
* Deprecated "Tiles" as a per face flag here, now it's always on
the image, used to be both, working in a very confusing way.
Unlikely someone actually had a purpose for this being per face.
* Remove GPC_PolygonMaterial.cpp/h, it's not actually used anymore,
so I don't want to bother updating it.
* Fix crash in image painting (own mistake in porting over bugfix
from 2.4x).
* Missing changes to release/windows/installer
* Sequencer fixes in source/blender/src/seqaudio.c dont apply to 2.5
* brechts fix for #18855 r20763 wasnt merged, does this apply to 2.5?
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r19820:HEAD
Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
- Removed/Commented some unused vars
- CValue::GetPropertyText() could return a temp reference to a variable on the stack, option wasnt used anywhere so removed.
- KX_ConstraintWrapper::GetConstraintId allows args but ignored them
- KX_ConstraintWrapper::PySetParam didnt return NULL on an error (messing up pythons exceptions).
- BLI_natstrcmp didnt return 0 when the while loop exited
- Size adjustments can be accomplished with warp mesh data now. So we get a free spot in the GUI for a tilt option.
- Tilt option to tilt the camera (for planetarium domes).
Angle is in degree from -180 to +180. It's needed for planetarium domes (as this one http://domejunky.blogspot.com/2009/05/dome-corrected-bge.html ).
- This is the last commit regarding dome code I expected to 2.49. I consider this feature full implemented now. (working on docs now)
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
