IK: needed to change abs() to TNT::abs() (thanks brecht!)
Freetype: FT_ENCODING_UNICODE typecast to FT_CharMap (thanks intrr!)
header_image: missing include for liballoc stuff
Ketsji: needed to declare m_hitObject as public in KX_MouseFocusSensor.h.
This is probably the wrong thing to do, but KX_MouseFocusSensor.cpp
compilation fails on line 279 otherwise.
including implementation. hope it works, and doesn't break to much.
it bakes physics objects transform into ipo, every frame of the running gameengine.
When you disable and run the game again, it clears the ipo's again. just for physics objects at the moment.
(perhaps some better UI in the future?)
- default the m_edgecode to 65535, the wireframe was invisible. when is the edgecode available again ?
- added an extra condition, nearsensor is not yet working for bullet, but it crashed.
I removed config.h code from the files that had them.
effect.c had nested /* so cleaned that up...
added a newline to vector.c to shut gcc up ;)
buttons_editing.c had a possible unintalized var (height) so I gave
it a default value.
removed an unused var i in interface_draw.c
removed an unused var mti in outliner.c
in BL_SkinDeformer.cpp
commented out a call to bDeformGroup->data which no longer exists so it
compiles again.

added raycast support for bullet (no triangle-mesh support, soon)
added python methods for 'getHitObject', getRayDirection, getHitPosition and getHitNormal for mouse over sensor,
which makes it easy for a shootout.blend demo :)
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 :)
>e.g. my msvc6 and gcc in linux. right?

thanks bjornmose, is was a typo
(it only disabled bullet for Visual Studio 2006, which is not even in planning stage :)
Should be fixed now
Aim was to get a total refresh of the animation system. This
is needed because;
- we need to upgrade it with 21st century features
- current code is spaghetti/hack combo, and hides good design
- it should become lag-free with using dependency graphs
A full log, with complete code API/structure/design explanation
will follow, that's a load of work... so here below the list with
hot changes;
- The entire object update system (matrices, geometry) is now
centralized. Calls to where_is_object and makeDispList are
forbidden, instead we tag objects 'changed' and let the
depgraph code sort it out
- Removed all old "Ika" code
- Depgraph is aware of all relationships, including meta balls,
constraints, bevelcurve, and so on.
- Made depgraph aware of relation types and layers, to do smart
flushing of 'changed' events. Nothing gets calculated too often!
- Transform uses depgraph to detect changes
- On frame-advance, depgraph flushes animated changes
Armatures;
Almost all armature related code has been fully built from scratch.
It now reveils the original design much better, with a very clean
implementation, lag free without even calculating each Bone more than
once. Result is quite a speedup yes!
Important to note is;
1) Armature is data containing the 'rest position'
2) Pose is the changes of rest position, and always on object level.
That way more Objects can use same Pose. Also constraints are in Pose
3) Actions only contain the Ipos to change values in Poses.
- Bones draw unrotated now
- Drawing bones speedup enormously (10-20 times)
- Bone selecting in EditMode, selection state is saved for PoseMode,
and vice-versa
- Undo in editmode
- Bone renaming does vertexgroups, constraints, posechannels, actions,
for all users of Armature in entire file
- Added Bone renaming in NKey panel
- Nkey PoseMode shows eulers now
- EditMode and PoseMode now have 'active' bone too (last clicked)
- Parenting in EditMode' CTRL+P, ALT+P, with nice options!
- Pose is added in Outliner now, with showing that constraints are in
the Pose, not Armature
- Disconnected IK solving from constraints. It's a separate phase now,
on top of the full Pose calculations
- Pose itself has a dependency graph too, so evaluation order is lag free.
TODO NOW;
- Rotating in Posemode has incorrect inverse transform (Martin will fix)
- Python Bone/Armature/Pose API disabled... needs full recode too
(wait for my doc!)
- Game engine will need upgrade too
- Depgraph code needs revision, cleanup, can be much faster!
(But, compliments for Jean-Luc, it works like a charm!)
- IK changed, it now doesnt use previous position to advance to next
position anymore. That system looks nice (no flips) but is not well
suited for NLA and background render.
TODO LATER;
We now can do loadsa new nifty features as well; like:
- Kill PoseMode (can be option for armatures itself)
- Make B-Bones (Bezier, Bspline, like for spines)
- Move all silly button level edit to 3d window (like CTRL+I = add
IK)
- Much better & informative drawing
- Fix action/nla editors
- Put all ipos in Actions (object, mesh key, lamp color)
- Add hooks
- Null bones
- Much more advanced constraints...
Bugfixes;
- OGL render (view3d header) had wrong first frame on anim render
- Ipo 'recording' mode had wrong playback speed
- Vertex-key mode now sticks to show 'active key', until frame change
-Ton-
alone with the following flags :
-Wall -Wno-char-subscripts -Wno-missing-braces.
the only one still worrying me is in rand.c line 57 :
rand.c:57: integer constant is too large for "long" type
but i have no clue about how correct cross-compiler and 32/64 bits friendly

Detailed description:
Currently, when an armature deformed object's mesh is replaced by the ReplaceMesh actuator, the new mesh fails to deform to the armature's movement.
My patch fixes this by properly replacing the deform controller along with the mesh (when appropriete).
For instance, if one had an animated character using any of the standard deformation techniques (armature, ipo, RVK, or AVK), that character's mesh would currently be prevented from changing mid-game. It could be replaced, but the new mesh would lack the controller which tells it how to deform. If one wanted to dynamiclly add a hat on top of the character's head, it would require storing a secondary prebuilt character (mesh, armature, logic, ect...) on another layer FOR EACH HAT the character could possibly wear, then swapping out the whole character when the hat change was desired. So if you had 4 possible hat/character combos, you would have 4 character meshes, 4 armatures, 4 sets of logic, and so on. I find this lack of flexibility to be unresonable.
With my patch, one could accomplish the same thing mearly by making one version of the character in the main layer, and adding an invisible object atop the character's head (which is parented to the head bone). Then whenever it becomes desirable, one can replace the invisible object's mesh with the desirable hat's mesh, then make it visible. With my patch, the hat object would then continue to deform to the character's head regardless of which hat was currently being worn.
*note 1*
for armature/mesh deformations, the new mesh must have properly assigned vertex groups which match one or more of the bones of the target armature before the replaceMesh call is made. Otherwise the vertices won't react to the armature because they won't know how. (not sure if vertices can be scripted to change groups after the game has started)
*note 2*
The added processing time involved with replacing the object's deform controller is negligible.
I got rid of a few warnings about blah shadows a previous declaration.
In the gameengine files I fix the following:
removed some unused vars
removed dos style line breaks
added newlines to last line in a couple of files to remove warnings.

missing files in Kester's new commits. This commit adds these two files so
that compiling can continue as it is intended to. Emilie M. found a
home for the files rather quickly, Ton recieived the files from Erwin via
email, and we all tested. Works great! Thanks to everyone that helped!
