By using getAnimRecordFrame(), game developers have access to the frame
number used by the "Record animation" feature. This enables them to
record additional information in Blender's F-Curves and ensuring perfect
synchronization with the information already recorded by Blender.
The setAnimRecordFrame() can be used to change the frame number at which
animations are recorded, for example to introduce delays the recording that
do not require delays in the actual game/simulation run.
The getter/setter functions in KX_KetsjiEngine are not directly named after
property they access (m_currentFrame). I found "current frame" to be too
vague for a public interface, hence chose a more descriptive name.

The expression module now uses an EXP prefix and it follows a
distribution similar to blender.
Additionally the hash function in EXP_HashedPtr.h was simplified and the
files EXP_C-Api.h &.EXP_C-Api.cpp were deleted because were unused.

This is essential for video projection, and the alternative until now was to manually change the projection matrix via Python.
( http://www.blender.org/manual/game_engine/camera/introduction.html#camera-lens-shift
- this page will be removed as soon as I commit this)
Also this is working for perspective and orto cameras BUT if the sensor is not AUTO it will only look correct in blenderplayer (this is an unrelated bug, but just in case someone runs into it while testing this, now you know why you got the issue).
Kudos for the BlenderVR project for supporting this feature development.

This callback allows the user to change the camera data right before the
rendering calculations.
scene.pre_draw[] is not enough here, because if you want to change the
camera matrices (projection/modelview) the culling test is done before
that (after pre_draw_setup[] though).

Python sample code using this. The sample scene would need a default
camera (not used for rendering), a dummy camera ('Camera.VR'), and two
cameras ('Camera.Left', 'Camera.Right') that will be used for the actual
rendering.
```
import bge
def callback():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
objects = scene.objects
vr_camera = objects.get('Camera.VR')
if bge.render.getStereoEye() == bge.render.LEFT_EYE:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Left')
else:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Right')
vr_camera.worldOrientation = camera.worldOrientation
vr_camera.worldPosition = camera.worldPosition
def init():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
main_camera = scene.active_camera
main_camera.useViewport = True
scene.pre_draw_setup.append(callback)
objects = scene.objects
vr_camera = objects.get('Camera.VR')
vr_camera.useViewport = True
vr_camera.setViewport(
0,
0,
bge.render.getWindowWidth(),
bge.render.getWindowHeight() )

Scene replacement with invalid scene name was crashing blender,
now it's a no-op.
KS_Scene.replace() to return a boolean to indicate if the scene
is valid and is scheduled for replacement. This allows more
robust game management.
This is mostly the same fix as before, but now code depending on culling
checks is executed after KX_Scene->CalculateVisibleMeshes(). As a
side-effect, LoD checks and animation culling now use the current
frame's culling information rather than the previous frame's.
Due to skinning changes for multi-threaded animations, the LOD check was
being done after skinning. Now the LOD check is run before animations.
This means the culling information is a frame old, but this should be
fine.
This required BL_ArmatureObject to have tighter control over armatures and poses.
Also, (Blender) armature objects are now copied instead of shared between
BL_ArmatureObjects to avoid race conditions. Also, due to the armature copy,
shape key drivers need a bit of extra fiddling to get the correct armature copy.
Initially OpenMP was used for threading, but then BLI_task was used due to being
less compiler dependent.
This commit also places time spent on skinning updates in the Animation
profiler category (was previously under the Rasterizer category).
The ultimate goal is to only allow the rasterizer to handle OpenGL and bf_gpu
calls. This commit creates a RAS_ILightObject interface and a RAS_OpenGLLight
implementation.
If bge.logic.addScene() could not find the scene to add it would add the
first scene again, which is just silly. Now, if no scene is found, a warning
is printed and nothing is added.
Levels of detail can be added and modified in the object panel. The object
panel also contains new tools for generating levels of detail, setting up
levels of detail based on object names (useful for importing), and
clearing an object's level of detail settings. This is meant as a game
engine feature, though the level of details settings can be previewed in
the viewport.

BGE Physics Cleanup: Making BlenderBulletCharacterController derive from PHY_ICharacter and removing CharacterWrapper from CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp. Also removing the character functions from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing GetOrientation(), SetOrientation(), SetPosition(), SetScaling(), and GetRadius() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing GetReactionForce() since all implementations returned (0, 0, 0). The Python interface for KX_GameObject still has reaction force code, but it still also returns (0, 0, 0). This can probably be removed as well, but removing it can break scripts, so I'll leave it for now.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing Get/SetLinVelocityMin() and Get/SetLinVelocityMax() from KX_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Removing SetMargin(), RelativeTranslate(), and RelativeRotate() from KX_IPhysicsController.

BGE Physics Cleanup: Accidently removed a return when cleaning up KX_GameObject::PyGetVelocity().
BGE Physics Cleanup: Remove GetLinearVelocity(), GetAngularVelocity() and GetVelocity() from KX_IPhysicsController. The corresponding PHY_IPhysicsController functions now also take Moto types instead of scalars to match the KX_IPhysicsController interface.
BGE Physics Cleanup: Moving SuspendDynamics, RestoreDynamics, SetMass, GetMass, and SetTransform from KX_IPhysicsController to PHY_IPhysicsController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: PHY_IPhysicsEnvironment and derived classes now use the same naming scheme as PHY_IController.
BGE Physics Cleanup: PHY_IMotionState and derived classes now use the same naming convention as PHY_IController.
BGE Phsyics Cleanup: Making PHY_IController and its derived classes follow a consistent naming scheme for member functions. They now all start with capital letters (e.g., setWorldOrientation becomes SetWorldOrientation).
BGE Physics Cleanup: Getting rid of KX_GameObject::SuspendDynamics() and KX_GameObject::RestoreDynamics(). Instead, use the functions from the physics controller.
BGE: Some first steps in trying to cleanup the KX_IPhysicsController mess. KX_GameObject now has a GetPhysicsController() and a GetPhysicsController1(). The former returns a PHY_IPhysicsController* while the latter returns a KX_IPhysicsController. The goal is to get everything using GetPhysicsController() instead of GetPhysicsController1().
This fix is mostly based off of HG1's patch from the bug report, which had ImageRender::Render() call KX_KetsjiEngine::RenderFonts(). However, I have moved RenderFonts() from KX_KetsjiEngine to KX_Scene where all of the other font and rendering functions are. The real fix for this mess would be to not have ImageRender::Render() have so much duplicate code from KX_KetsjiEngine::Render(), but that's a code cleanup problem for another day.
now, with a 'resize' routine for the engine we can/should also recreate some
buffers that are created only at init time (e.g., 2d filters, dome fbos, ...).
This bug was always present in Blender (since 2.49 at least).
Bugfix supported by NF-UBC Nereus Program as part of the development
of OceanViz/NereusViz

Also it changes the font to monospace (too allow ' ' padding) and reduced shadow border to

# Print a message when an async LibLoad is done
import bge
def finished_cb(status):
print("Library (%s) loaded in %.2fms." % (status.libraryName, status.timeTaken))
bge.logic.LibLoad('myblend.blend', 'Scene', async=True).onFinish = finished_cb
LibLoad() now returns a KX_LibLoadStatus object for information on the library loading. LibNew() and LibFree() are unaffected by this commit. In other words, the async option only works for LibLoad(). Furthermore it only works for Scenes, not Actions or Meshes.
* Cleaning up the conversion code to avoid a per-face material conversion. Materials are now stored in buckets and only converted if a new material is found. This replaces some of Campbell's earlier work on the subject. His work wasn't as thorough, but it was much safer for a release.
* Shaders are only compiled for LibLoaded materials once. Before they could be compiled twice, which could really slow things down.
* Refactoring the rasterizer code to use a strategy design pattern to handle different geometry rendering methods such as immediate mode, vertex arrays and vertex buffer objects. VBOs are added, but they will be disabled in a following commit since they are still slower than vertex arrays with display lists. However, VBOs are still useful for mobile, so it's good to keep them around.
* Better multi-uv support. The BGE should now be able to handle more than two UV layers, which should help it better match the viewport.
