* 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.
When the mesh field is left blank and Physics option is enabled, it reinstances the physics mesh from the existing mesh.
like calling gameOb.reinstancePhysicsMesh() from python.
Add support back for reinstancePhysics mesh, a frequently requested feature in the BGE forums.
from what I can tell Sumo supported this but bullet never did.
Currently only accessible via python at the moment.
- rigid body, dynamic, static types work.
- instanced physics meshes are modified too.
- compound shapes are not supported.
Physics mesh can be re-instanced from...
* shape keys & armature deformations
* subsurf (any other modifiers too)
* RAS_TexVert's (can be modified from python)
Moved the reinstancePhysicsMesh functions from RAS_MeshObject into KX_GameObject since the physics data is stored here.

Mathutils support for subclassing Vector, Quat, Euler and Matrix types.
Removed C docstrings, prefer to make sure our epydocs are well maintained rather then duplicate, vague doc strings.
Will convert scripts to detect missing docs from the BGE.
Adding a UI to set the type on startup can be added easily.
# ----
class myPlayer(GameTypes.KX_GameObject):
def die(self):
# ... do stuff ...
self.endObject()
# make an instance
player = myPlayer(gameOb) # gameOb is made invalid now.
player.die()
# ----
One limitation (which could also be an advantage), is making the subclass instance will return that subclass everywhere, you cant have 2 different subclasses of the same BGE data at once.
Remove the last of the odd C++/python wrapper code from http://www.python.org/doc/PyCPP.html (~1998)
* Use python subclasses rather then having fake subclassing through get/set attributes calling parent types.
* PyObject getset arrays are created while initializing the types, converted from our own attribute arrays. This way python deals with subclasses and we dont have to define getattro or setattro functions for each type.
* GameObjects and Scenes no longer have attribute access to properties. only dictionary style access - ob['prop']
* remove each class's get/set/dir functions.
* remove isA() methods, can use PyObject_TypeCheck() in C and issubclass() in python.
* remove Parents[] array for each C++ class, was only used for isA() and wasnt correct in quite a few cases.
* remove PyTypeObject that was being passed as the last argument to each class (the parent classes too).
TODO -
* Light and VertexProxy need to be converted to using attributes.
* memory for getset arrays is never freed, not that bad since its will only allocates once.
* all mathutils types now have optional callbacks
* PyRNA returns mathutils quat and euler types automatically when they have the rotation subtype.
* PyRNA, reuse the BPy_StructRNA PyObject rather name making a new one for each function returned.
* use more arithb.c functions for Mathutils quaternion type (less inline cruft).
* BGE Mathutils integration mostly finished- KX_PyMath now converts to Mathutils types rather then lists.
* make all mathutils types share the same header so they can share a number of functions - dealloc, getWrapped, getOwner.
Any 3x3 or 4x4 rna matrix will automatically be returned as a Mathutils matrix.
This makes useful stuff like multiplying a vector location by an object matrix possible.
ob = bpy.data.scenes[0].objects[0]
print (ob.data.verts[0].co * ob.matrix)
Also added mathutils matrix types to the BGE GameObject.localOrientation, worldOrientation
* MT_Matrix3x3 added getValue3x3 and setValue3x3, assumed a 4x3 float array.
* KX_GameObject.cpp convenience functions NodeSetGlobalOrientation, NodeGetLocalOrientation, NodeGetLocalScaling, NodeGetLocalPosition.
* 2.5 python api now initializes modules BGL, Mathutils and Geometry
* modules py3 PyModuleDef's use PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT, rather then {}, was making msvc fail to build.
* added macros for Vector_ReadCallback, Vector_WriteCallback etc. to check if the callback pointer is set before calling the function.
in short, vectors can work as if they are thin wrapped but not crash blender if the original data is removed.
* RNA vector's return Mathutils vector types.
* BGE vectors for GameObject's localPosition, worldPosition, localPosition, localScale, worldScale, localInertia.
* Comment USE_MATHUTILS define to disable returning vectors.
Example...
* 2.49... *
loc = gameOb.worldPosition
loc[1] = 0
gameOb.worldPosition = loc
* With vectors... *
gameOb.worldPosition[1] = 0
* But this wont crash... *
loc = gameOb.worldPosition
gameOb.endObject()
loc[1] = 0 # will raise an error that the objects removed.
This breaks games which assume return values are lists.
Will add this to eulers, matrix and quaternion types later.
* 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.
* Update cmake and makefiles to link python generic.
* Fix game engine building for cmake and makefiles.
* Fix compile error with py 3.x, due to 2.x compat fix.
* Mathutils, Geometry, BGL, Mostly working, some //XXX comments for things to fix with py3
python import override (bpy_internal_import.c) so you can import python internal scripts from the BGE and running blender normally.
De-activating a loop-end actuator didnt work (it kept looping).
Looked into this further and it turns out that the actuators run with both positive and negative events false, the sound actuator assumes because its not negative that its a positive event and plays the sound anyway.
Fix by checking that its a positive event before playing.
The size limit on the message actuator was 100 which broke some scripts, set to 16384 instead.
* Removed modules Expression and CValue, neither were ever available.
* Added GameLogic.EvalExpression(exp) from the Expression module, evaluates an expression like the expression controller (not sure if this is really that useful since python is far more advanced).
* resetting the original blend file path didint work (own fault == -> =)
* Py3.x PyModule_Create didnt allow importing since it didn't add to sys.modules,
Looks like they want us to use init-tab array, but this doesn't suit us since
it needs to be setup before python is initialized.
* Documented GameLogic.globalDict
* pressing P starts the BGE in the 3D view
* redraw window clipping isnt right
* BGE python api works in py3k (without __import__ override or Mathutils, BGL, Geometry)
* no events yet (so there is no way to exit)
* 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.
- fix for [#18867] getScreenRay error
... the Vector wasn't been added to KX_Camera origin. Therefore the Ray was always casted to the wrong coordinate when camera wasn't in [0,0,0] (where is obviously was in my tests :)
- making the input parameter compatible with Blender/BGE window coordinate system (Top-Bottom).
... that will break scripts done in 2.49. Since this feature was added only in 2.49 that fix is OK. (and the fix is ridiculous.
Note:
the input parameter is normalized. That means it runs from 0.0 to 1.0. Some users found it confusing, but it allows to make a game compatible with multiple desktop resolutions.a
- CValue warning ShowDeprecationWarning("val = ob.attr", "val = ob['attr']"); had false positives because of python using getattr() internally. Only show the wanring now when a CValue is found.
- Py functions that accepted a vector and a GameObject were slowed down by PySequence_Check() first called on the GameObject, though this would fail it would try and get attributes from the game object - ending up in ~8 attribute lookups each time. Avoiding PySequence_Check() makes ob.getDistanceTo(otherOb) over twice as fast.
- Joystick hat events could crash the BGE for joysticks with more then 4 hats.
- PLY Import failed on PLY files from Carve, added some extra types.
the original blendfile path wasn't reset when loading new blendfiles.
blenderplayer was ok, but running the BGE from blender would set the blendfile original path and never reset it on loading other blend files.
GameEngine sys.path creation was broken because of a pesky slash at the end of each path name.
Win32 sys.paths were also failing when running a game that switched between blend files in different directories
On win32 for some reason making absolute paths from lib->name failed, work around this by using lib->filename.
STR_String.h, cast to float to quiet compiler warnings.
so where foo is an int prop,
gameOb.get("foo") == 0, would end up returning a CValue int proxy.
This is more a problem for KX_GameObject since ListValues with python access mostly don't contain ints, strings, floats.
This also wont break games from 2.48 since the .get() function wasn't available.
importing "pygame" failed when running the BGE for the second time.
Rather then clearing modules, backup and restore them (as its doing with sys.path)
This way the BGE will never remember any modules imported during game play (which can cause bugs/crashes), but it also wont break pythons state by possibly removing modules that are being used internally.
- Deprecation warnings for using attribute access
- Added dictionary functions to KX_GameObject and ListValue
ob.get(key, default=None)
ob.has_key(key)
ob.has_key is important since there was no way to do something like hasattr(ob, "attr") which can be replaced by ob.has_key("attr") - (both still work of course).
ob.get is just useful in many cases where you want a property if it exists but can fallback to a default.
- CListValue::FindValue was adding a reference but the ~3 places it was used were releasing the reference. added a FindValue that accepts a const char* type to avoid converting python strings to STR_String.
- 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
For this actuator to be useful it needs to use the first opened blendfile as the base name for the configuration file.
A recent fix that made the gp_GamePythonPath always match the current loaded blend file made this actuator work differently.
keep the original filename to use for making the config name so you can load the config between loading blendfiles.
- Typo in occlusion variable init "m_buffer == NULL;" -> "m_buffer = NULL;"
CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp and CcdPhysicsController.cpp had too many warnings, fixed most of them.
+ fixed Python method, PyArg_ParseTuple already checks for errors, no returning of NULL, thanks Campbell too)
+ added linear/angular spring for each of the 6DOFs of a generic 6dof constraint. This makes the generic 6dof constraint very versatile.
allow to dynamically create rigid body constraints while disable collision detection between connected bodies, pass as 10th argument the flag 128
PhysiPython KX_ConstraintWrapper, setParam
export setParam(paramIndex,paramValue0,paramValue1) for Physics constraints
paramIndex 0,1,2 are linear limits, 3,4,5 are angular limits, 6,7,8 are linear motors, 9,10,11 are angular motors
For example:
disableConnectedBodies=128
cons = PhysicsConstraints.createConstraint(oid,rid,generic6dof,pivotInAx,pivotInAy,pivotInAz,angleX,angleY,angleZ,disableConnectedBodies)
#params 0,1,2 are linear limits, low,high value. if low > high then disable limit
cons.setParam(0,0,0)
I will provide an example .blend for Blender 2.49
http://blenderartists.org/forum/showpost.php?p=1382653&postcount=102
(todo: expose this setting in World setting GUI)
Expose contact processing threshold in Advanced GUI, next to rigid body margin, called CPT.
Default to 1, makes rigid body stacking a bit more stable, smaller values makes sliding easier (at the cost of easier jittering).
Disabled for 'dynamic' objects that don't rotate, because characters etc. always need smooth sliding.
SCA_RandomActuator: The random generator was shared between replicas and not deleted. Added ref counting between replicas to allow deletion at the end.
KX_Camera: The scenegraph node was not deleted for temporary cameras (ImageMirror and shadow), causing 500 bytes leak per frame and per shadow light.
KX_GameActuator: Global dictionary buffer was not deleted after saving.
KX_MotionState: The motion state for compound child was not deleted
KX_ReplaceMeshActuator: The mesh was unnecessarily converted for each actuator and not deleted, causing large memleak.
After these fix, YoFrankie runs without memleak.
in fact I redid part of the last "fix", making it working properly now.
Before we were changing Lamp->la . This is the Blender Lamp, we shouldn't touch it.
So this part of the code is correct now.
Things that could be tackled:
- color attribute is returning negative values when NEGATIVE is toggled
- objects with no material (default gray one) still don't support lamp spots (not spot lamp but the spot of the lamps)
Four new buttons in World settings to control frame rate:
fps: Nominal frame rate in frame per second.
Also sets the physics timestep = 1/fps
phys: Maximum number of physics timestep per game frame in case
the actual fps is less than nominal. This allows the
physics to keep up with real time even if the graphics slows
down the game.
sub: Fixed number of simulation substeps per physic timestep.
Improves the precision of the physics simulation. Useful for
fast moving objects for example.
log: Maximum number of logic steps per game frame in case the
actual fps is less than nominal. This allows the logic
system to follow the physics simulation.
Upper bound = phys
(setting the value higher than phys has no effect).
On games with heavy logic system, it is useful to set this
value to 1, to keep logic time under control.
All these values were already accessible from Python except phys:
GameLogic.getMaxPhysicsFrame():
Gets the maximum number of physics frame per render frame.
GameLogic.setMaxPhysicsFrame(phys):
Sets the maximum number of physics timestep that are executed per render frame.
Higher value allows physics to keep up with realtime even if graphics slows down the game.
Physics timestep is fixed and equal to 1/tickrate (see setLogicTicRate)
maxphysics/ticrate is the maximum delay of the renderer that physics can compensate.
phys: integer
Compound shape control
======================
1) GUI control
It is now possible to control which child shape is added to
a parent compound shape in the Physics buttons. The "Compound"
shape button becomes "Add to parent" on child objects and
determines whether the child shape is to be added to the top
parent compound shape when the game is stated.
Notes: * "Compound" is only available to top parent objects
(objects without parent).
* Nesting of compound shape is not possible: a child
object with "Add to parent" button set will be added
to the top parent compound shape, regardless of its
position in the parent-child hierarchy and even if its
immediate parent doesn't have the "Add to parent" button set.
2) runtime control
It is now possible to control the compound shape at runtime:
The SetParent actuator has a new "Compound" button that indicates
whether the object shape should be added to the compound shape
of the parent object, provided the parent has a compound shape
of course. If not, the object retain it's individual state
while parented.
Similarly, the KX_GameObject.setParent() python function has
a new compound parameter.
Notes: * When an object is dynamically added to a compound
shape, it looses temporarily all its physics capability
to the benefit of the parent: it cannot register collisions
and the characteristics of its shape are lost (ghost, sensor,
dynamic, etc.).
* Nested compound shape is not supported: if the object
being parented is already a compound shape, it is not
added to the compound parent (as if the Compound option
was not set in the actuator or the setParent function).
* To ensure compatibility with old blend files, the Blender
subversion is changed to 2.48.5 and the old blend files
are automatically converted to match the old behavior:
all children of a Compound object will have the "Add to
parent" button set automatically.
Child ghost control
===================
It is now possible to control if an object should becomes ghost
or solid when parented. This is only applicable if the object
is not added to the parent compound shape (see above).
A new "Ghost" button is available on the SetParent actuator to
that effect. Similarly the KX_GameObject.setParent() python function
has a new compound parameter.
Notes: * This option is not applicable to sensor objects: they stay
ghost all the time.
* Make sure the child object does not enter in collision with
the parent shape when the Ghost option if off and the parent is
dynamic: the collision creates a reaction force but the parent
cannot escape the child, so the force builds up and produces
eratic movements.
* The collision capability of an ordinary object (dynamic or static)
is limited when it is parented: it becomes automatically static
and can only detect dynamic and sensor objects.
* A sensor object retain its full collision capability when parented:
it can detect static and dynamic object.
Python control
==============
KX_GameObject.setParent(parent,compound,ghost):
Sets this object's parent.
Control the shape status with the optional compound and ghost parameters:
compound=1: the object shape should be added to the parent compound shape (default)
compound=0: the object should keep its individual shape.
In that case you can control if it should be ghost or not:
ghost=1 if the object should be made ghost while parented (default)
ghost=0 if the object should be solid while parented
Note: if the object type is sensor, it stays ghost regardless of ghost parameter
parent: KX_GameObject reference or string (object name w/o OB prefix)
Previous patch was not sorting the state actuators. This was causing
some problems with YoFrankie that relies on the order of actuators
when multiple state actuators are activated at once.
Active state actuators will now be sorted per object. This doesn't
change the fact that state actuators are executed before all other
actuators as before.
Incidently, made the logic loop faster.
The modules were moved in order to access the camera internal matrixes. It will make then compatible with multiple viewports in a near future.
So far the problem I found was:
1) KX_Camera doesn't store the canvas viewport
2) RAS_ICanvas methods: GetDisplayArea and GetWindowArea are affected by multiple viewports (and they shouldn't).
Test file is here: http://www.pasteall.org/blend/68
use PY_SET_ATTR_FAIL and PY_SET_ATTR_SUCCESS return values so the fake subclassing can know if a value failed to be set or if it was missing from the type. (with PY_SET_ATTR_MISSING)
Also noticed some other mistakes.
- KX_LightObject, setting the type didnt check for an int.
- KX_SoundActuator, didnt return an error when assigning an invalid orientation value
- KX_GameObject, worldOrientation didnt return an error value.
Added an 'Invisible' button to make this more clear, it seems like a display option but its also related to logic because the actuators can toggle this after the game starts.
Without this its annoying to add UV's only to set the invisible flag.
Sensor objects were not clearing the softbody gameflag
Servo control motion actuator did not work as expected when the object
is moving on a moving platform.
This patch introduces a new Ref field in the servo motion actuator
to set a reference object for the velocity calculation.
You can set the object during the game using the actuator "reference"
attribute; use an object name or an object reference.
The servo controller takes into account the angular velocity of the
reference object to compute the relative local velocity.
A new bookmark button is available on the controller UI.
When set, the controller is guaranteed to execute before all
other non-bookmarked controllers, provided it is scheduled
for execution.
This is useful for initialization scripts that run once at startup or
scripts that must set some prerequisite for the other controllers at
the start of each logic frame.
This feature is also available at python level with the "bookmark"
attribute. It can be changed during the game.
Note that if several script are bookmarked, their relative order of
execution is not guaranteed. Make sure they don't depend on each other.
- 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)
- corrections to docs
- disallow calling controller.activate(actuator) when the controller is not active. (Raise a SystemError)
- Added 2 new attributes, CValue.name - deprecates CValue.getName(), KX_GameObject.children deprecated KX_GameObject.getChildren(), (same for getChildrenRecursive()).
A new type of "Sensor" physics object is available in the GE for advanced
collision management. It's called Sensor for its similarities with the
physics objects that underlie the Near and Radar sensors.
Like the Near and Radar object it is:
- static and ghost
- invisible by default
- always active to ensure correct collision detection
- capable of detecting both static and dynamic objects
- ignoring collision with their parent
- capable of broadphase filtering based on:
* Actor option: the collisioning object must have the Actor flag set to be detected
* property/material: as specified in the collision sensors attached to it
Broadphase filtering is important for performance reason: the collision points
will be computed only for the objects that pass the broahphase filter.
- automatically removed from the simulation when no collision sensor is active on it
Unlike the Near and Radar object it can:
- take any shape, including triangle mesh
- be made visible for debugging (just use the Visible actuator)
- have multiple collision sensors using it
Other than that, the sensor objects are ordinary objects. You can move them
freely or parent them. When parented to a dynamic object, they can provide
advanced collision control to this object.
The type of collision capability depends on the shape:
- box, sphere, cylinder, cone, convex hull provide volume detection.
- triangle mesh provides surface detection but you can give some volume
to the suface by increasing the margin in the Advanced Settings panel.
The margin applies on both sides of the surface.
Performance tip:
- Sensor objects perform better than Near and Radar: they do less synchronizations
because of the Scenegraph optimizations and they can have multiple collision sensors
on them (with different property filtering for example).
- Always prefer simple shape (box, sphere) to complex shape whenever possible.
- Always use broadphase filtering (avoid collision sensor with empty propery/material)
- Use collision sensor only when you need them. When no collision sensor is active
on the sensor object, it is removed from the simulation and consume no CPU.
Known limitations:
- When running Blender in debug mode, you will see one warning line of the console:
"warning btCollisionDispatcher::needsCollision: static-static collision!"
In release mode this message is not printed.
- Collision margin has no effect on sphere, cone and cylinder shape.
Other performance improvements:
- Remove unnecessary interpolation for Near and Radar objects and by extension
sensor objects.
- Use direct matrix copy instead of quaternion to synchronize orientation.
Other bug fix:
- Fix Near/Radar position error on newly activated objects. This was causing
several detection problems in YoFrankie
- Fix margin not passed correctly to gImpact shape.
- Disable force/velocity actions on static objects
KX_GameObject.getVelocity() would set an error but nor return an error value when an non vector argument was given.
KX_PythonSeq_Type was not initialized with PyType_Ready which could crash blender when inspecting the type.
[#18701] Issues with camera.pointInsideFrustum method
- note in docs that the projection matrix is not correct for first logic tick.
Renamed...
KX_Camera.isViewport -> KX_Camera.useViewport
KX_Lamp.quat_attenuation -> KX_Lamp.quad_attenuation
Deprecated KX_Camera.getProjectionMatrix(), KX_Camera.setProjectionMatrix() for projection_matrix attr
Added most missing docs reported by the doc-checker script
This commit completes the support for modifiers in the BGE.
- The physic shape is generated according to the derived mesh.
This is true for all types of shapes and all types of
objects except soft body.
- Optimization for static derived mesh (mesh with modifiers
but no armature and no shape keys). Replicas will share
the derived mesh and the display list: less memory and
faster rendering. With this optimization, the static
derived mesh will render as fast as if the modifiers were
applied.
Known Limits:
- Sharing of mesh and display list is only possible between
in-game replicas or dupligroup. If you want to instantiate
multiple objects with modifiers, use dupligroup to ensure
best memory and GPU utilization.
- rayCast() will interact with the derived mesh as follow:
Hit position and hit normal are the real values according
to the derived mesh but the KX_PolyProxy object refers to
the original mesh. You should use it only to retrieve the
material.
- Dynamic derived mesh have very poor performance:
They use direct openGL calls for rendering (no support
for display list and vertex array) and they dont't share
the derived mesh memory. Always apply modifiers on dynamic
mesh for best performance.
- Time dependent modifiers are not supported.
- Modifiers are not supported for Bullet soft body.
scene.active_camera can now be set so you can more easily set the current camera from python scripts without using an actuator.
ConvertPythonToCamera utility function to get a camera from a python string or KX_Camera type.
This commit extends the technique of dynamic linked list to the logic
system to eliminate as much as possible temporaries, map lookup or
full scan. The logic engine is now free of memory allocation, which is
an important stability factor.
The overhead of the logic system is reduced by a factor between 3 and 6
depending on the logic setup. This is the speed-up you can expect on
a logic setup using simple bricks. Heavy bricks like python controllers
and ray sensors will still take about the same time to execute so the
speed up will be less important.
The core of the logic engine has been much reworked but the functionality
is still the same except for one thing: the priority system on the
execution of controllers. The exact same remark applies to actuators but
I'll explain for controllers only:
Previously, it was possible, with the "executePriority" attribute to set
a controller to run before any other controllers in the game. Other than
that, the sequential execution of controllers, as defined in Blender was
guaranteed by default.
With the new system, the sequential execution of controllers is still
guaranteed but only within the controllers of one object. the user can
no longer set a controller to run before any other controllers in the
game. The "executePriority" attribute controls the execution of controllers
within one object. The priority is a small number starting from 0 for the
first controller and incrementing for each controller.
If this missing feature is a must, a special method can be implemented
to set a controller to run before all other controllers.
Other improvements:
- Systematic use of reference in parameter passing to avoid unnecessary data copy
- Use pre increment in iterator instead of post increment to avoid temporary allocation
- Use const char* instead of STR_String whenever possible to avoid temporary allocation
- Fix reference counting bugs (memory leak)
- Fix a crash in certain cases of state switching and object deletion
- Minor speed up in property sensor
- Removal of objects during the game is a lot faster
controller.actuators[name] and controller.sensors[name]
Made a read-only sequence type for logic brick sensors and actuators which can access single items or be used like a list or dictionary.
We could use a python dictionary or CValueList but that would be slower to create.
So you can do...
for s in controller.sensors: print s
print controller.sensors["Sensor"]
print controller.sensors[0]
sensors = list(controller.sensors)
This sequence type keeps a reference to the proxy it came from and will raise an error on access if the proxy has been removed.
Commit 20099 started using a FBO way too big.
According to Paul Bourke this is how it's done in other Engines:
Projectors HD:
1920x1050 - buffersize = 1024; FBO size = 2048
1400x1050 - buffersize = 1024; FBO size = 2048
Projectors XGA:
1024x768 - buffersize = 512; FBO size = 1024
Now in Blender Game Engine we are using:
Projectors HD:
1920x1050 - buffersize = 1050; FBO size = 2048
1400x1050 - buffersize = 1050; FBO size = 2048
Projectors XGA:
1024x768 - buffersize = 768; FBO size = 1024
(I guess I should be committing code to the ge_dome branch instead of the trunk. I feel bad doing all those adjustments in a hurry to 2.49 final release in the trunk. That is ok, right?)
*) a small note:
In the end it turned out that we have upright and downright domes out there.
So I may rearrange the order of the gui later:
(1 = fisheye, 2 = truncated up, 3 = truncated down, 4 = envmap, 5 = spherical panoramic)
I don't plan to do a doVersion() for that, so if you are using it already keep in mind that the modes may change before 249 final release.
After last commit (20099) warping meshes got slower (more quality == less performance). Since we don't need an extra warping for truncated domes, It's better to handle them directly in openGL without the need of warping it.
I'll talk with some Dome owners to see if we need both Upright and Downright modes. I may remove one of them by 2.49 them.
*) also: a proper GLEW_EXT_framebuffer_object check before generating FBO (for warping meshes).
**) next in line (maybe after RC2): tilt option to tilt the camera up to 90º upward.
We are using an image twice as big to render the fisheye before warping.
It'll slow down warping meshes a little, but we get way more resolution.
Therefore I will bring Truncated Dome mode back in order to avoid using warping mesh for that.
not fixed but the problem is now less bad when projection painting, bilinear interpolation was rounding down.
- added gameOb.attrDict to get the internal gameObject dict.
- mesh.getVertex wasnt setting an exception.
This commit extend the technique of dynamic linked list to the mesh
slots so as to eliminate dumb scan or map lookup. It provides massive
performance improvement in the culling and in the rasterizer when
the majority of objects are static.
Other improvements:
- Compute the opengl matrix only for objects that are visible.
- Simplify hash function for GEN_HasedPtr
- Scan light list instead of general object list to render shadows
- Remove redundant opengl calls to set specularity, shinyness and diffuse
between each mesh slots.
- Cache GPU material to avoid frequent call to GPU_material_from_blender
- Only set once the fixed elements of mesh slot
- Use more inline function
The following table shows the performance increase between 2.48, 1st round
and this round of improvement. The test was done with a scene containing
40000 objects, of which 1000 are in the view frustrum approximately. The
object are simple textured cube to make sure the GPU is not the bottleneck.
As some of the rasterizer processing time has moved under culling, I present
the sum of scenegraph(includes culling)+rasterizer time
Scenegraph+rasterizer(ms) 2.48 1st round 3rd round
All objects static, 323.0 86.0 7.2
all visible, 1000 in
the view frustrum
All objects static, 219.0 49.7 N/A(*)
all invisible.
All objects moving, 323.0 105.6 34.7
all visible, 1000 in
the view frustrum
Scene destruction 40min 40min 4s
(*) : this time is not representative because the frame rate was at 60fps.
In that case, the GPU holds down the GE by frame sync. By design, the
overhead of the rasterizer is 0 when the the objects are invisible.
This table shows a global speed up between 9x and 45x compared to 2.48a
for scenegraph, culling and rasterizer overhead. The speed up goes much
higher when objects are invisible.
An additional 2-4x speed up is possible in the scenegraph by upgrading
the Moto library to use Eigen2 BLAS library instead of C++ classes but
the scenegraph is already so fast that it is not a priority right now.
Next speed up in logic: many things to do there...
also deprecated getActuators() and getSensors() for 'sensors' and 'actuators' attributes.
an example of getting every sensor connected to an object.
all_sensors = [s for c in ob.controllers for s in c.sensors]
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)
Use dynamic linked list to handle scenegraph rather than dumb scan
of the whole tree. The performance improvement depends on the fraction
of moving objects. If most objects are static, the speed up is
considerable. The following table compares the time spent on
scenegraph before and after this commit on a scene with 10000 objects
in various configuratons:
Scenegraph time (ms) Before After
(includes culling)
All objects static, 8.8 1.7
all visible but small fraction
in the view frustrum
All objects static, 7,5 0.01
all invisible.
All objects moving, 14.1 8.4
all visible but small fraction
in the view frustrum
This tables shows that static and invisible objects take no CPU at all
for scenegraph and culling. In the general case, this commit will
speed up the scenegraph between 2x and 5x. Compared to 2.48a, it should
be between 4x and 10x faster. Further speed up is possible by making
the scenegraph cache-friendly.
Next round of performance improvement will be on the rasterizer: use
the same dynamic linked list technique for the mesh slots.
patch from Alex Fraser (z0r)
eg.
- vec.xyz = vec.zyx
- vec.xy = vec.zw
- vec.xxy = vec.wzz
- vec.yzyz = vec.yxyx
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swizzling_(computer_graphics)
made some minor modifications to this patch.
tested access times and adding 336 attributes to vectors doesn't make a noticeable differences to speed of existing axis attributes (x,y,z,w) - thanks to python dict lookups.
- when the attribute check function failed it didnt set an error raising a SystemError instead
- Rasterizer.getMaterialMode would never return KX_BLENDER_MULTITEX_MATERIAL
- PropertySensor value attribute checking function was always returning a fail.
- Vertex Self Shadow python script didnt update for meshes with modifiers.
- Vast performance increase when removing scene containing large number of
objects: the sensor/controller map was updated for each deleted object,
causing massive slow down when the number of objects was large (O(n^2)).
- Use reference when scanning the sensor map => avoid useless copy.
- Remove dynamically the object bounding box from the DBVT when the object
is invisible => faster culling.
This function sets the maximum number of logic frame executed per render frame.
Valid values: 1..5
This function is useful to control the amount of processing consumed by logic.
By default, up to 5 logic frames can be executed per render frame. This is fine
as long as the time spent on logic is negligible compared to the render time.
If it's not the case, the default value will drag the performance of the game
down by executing unnecessary logic frames that take up most of the CPU time.
You can avoid that by lowering the value with this function.
The drawback is less precision in the logic system to physics and I/O activity.
Note that it does not affect the physics system: physics will still run
at full frame rate (actually up to 5 times the ticrate).
You can further control the render frame rate with GameLogic.setLogicTicRate().
sys.path is the search path for python modules. This is useful so people making games can put all their scripts in a folder and be sure they will always load into the BGE.
for each blend file a scripts directory is added to the path
/home/me/foo.blend
will look for modules in...
/home/me/scripts/*.py
It could also default to look for modules in the same directory as the blend file but I think this is messy.
Added a note in the tooltip about //scripts so its not such a hidden feature.
This works by storing the original sys.path, then adding the paths for the blendfile and all its libs,
when a new blendfile is loaded, the original sys.path is restored before adding the blendfiles paths again so the sys.path wont get junk in it.
One problem with this - when using linked libs the module names must be unique else it will load the wrong module for one of the controllers.
also fixed 2 bugs
- sys.path in the blenderplayer was growing by 1 for every file load in blenderplayer
- the relative path (gp_GamePythonPath), wasnt being set when loading files in the blenderlayer (as I wrongly said in the last commit).
The solution is a hack. It's a workaround for another bug (#18655).
Now it's working in all modes: fullscreen, maximized screen and gameplayer.
* small change to always set the perspective mode as true during dome mode.
I added module clearing before there was checks for invalid python objects, so now its not needed for BGE Builtin types at least.
also made the builtin modules get re-used if they already exist and clear all user modules when the game engine finishes so with Module-Py-Controllers the referenced modules are at least up to date when pressing Pkey.
- renamed generic attribute "isValid" to "invalid" since BL_Shader already uses isValid.
- Moved deprecation warnings from CValue
- removed unused KX_Scene::SetProjectionMatrix and KX_Scene::GetViewMatrix
- Added KX_Scene attributes "lights", "cameras", "objects_inactive", to allow access to objects in unseen layers (before the AddObject actuator adds them)
- KX_Camera deprecated cam.enableViewport(bool) for cam.isViewport which can be read as well.
Own bug, conversion function to get an orientation from python - PyOrientationTo() ignored user input completely :| (breaking the orientation attribute)
Also made KX_GameObject worldOrientation writable and minor doc fixes.
- print CListValue errors only once.
- bge_api_validate_py.txt now validates modules as well as types.
- added missing functions and consts for epydoc modules. some of these in GameLogic.py still need sorting.
* Enviroment Map implemented (replacing truncated mode 2).
- Now it's possible to pre-bake animated (or static) EnvMaps to use with Cube Map textures.
* Enabling 2DFilter in Dome mode
- no GL_DEPTH_BUFFER supported though.
* Tweaking GameSettings menu (centralizing buttons)
getScreenPosition(obj):
- Gets the position of an object projected on screen space.
getScreenVect(x, y):
- Gets the vector from the camera position in the screen coordinate direction.
getScreenRay(x, y, dist, property):
- Look towards a screen coordinate (x,y) and find first object hit within dist that matches prop.
- The ray is a call to KX_GameObject->rayCastTo from the KX_Camera object.
Patch [#18589] test files can be found there. Patch reviewed by Campbell
CListValue fixes
- Disable changing CValueLists that the BGE uses internally (scene.objects.append(1) would crash when drawing)
- val=clist+list would modify clist in place, now return a new value.
- clist.append([....]), was working like extend.
- clist.append(val) didnt work for most CValue types like KX_GameObjects.
Other changes
- "isValid" was always returning True.
- Set all errors for invalid proxy access to PyExc_SystemError (was using a mix of error types)
- Added PyObjectPlus::InvalidateProxy() to manually invalidate, though if python ever gains access again, it will make a new valid proxy. This is so removing an object from a scene can invalidate the object even if its stored elsewhere in a CValueList for eg.
PyObjectPlus::ProcessReplica() is now called when any of its subclasses are replicated.
This is important because PyObjectPlus::ProcessReplica() NULL's the 'm_proxy' python pointer I added recently.
Without this a replicated subclass of PyObjectPlus could have an invalid pointer (crashing the BGE).
This change also means CValue::AddDataToReplica() can be moved into CValue::ProcessReplica() since ProcessReplica is always called.
Some functions used
ProcessReplica(replica);
others
replica->ProcessReplica()
Use the second method everywhere so the PyObjectPlus's ProcessReplica() can be called from its subclasses.
Note that PyObjectPlus's ProcessReplica isnt used yet.
improved how attribute errors are set so each classes py_getattro function dosnt need to set an error if the attribute doesn't exist.
Now py_base_getattro sets an error on a NULL return value when no errors are set to avoid setting errors at multiple levels.
Realtime modifiers applied on mesh objects will be supported in
the game engine with the following limitations:
- Only real time modifiers are supported (basically all of them!)
- Virtual modifiers resulting from parenting are not supported:
armature, curve, lattice. You can still use these modifiers
(armature is really not recommended) but in non parent mode.
The BGE has it's own parenting capability for armature.
- Modifiers are computed on the host (using blender modifier
stack).
- Modifiers are statically evaluated: any possible time dependency
in the modifiers is not supported (don't know enough about
modifiers to be more specific).
- Modifiers are reevaluated if the underlying mesh is deformed
due to shape action or armature action. Beware that this is
very CPU intensive; modifiers should really be used for static
objects only.
- Physics is still based on the original mesh: if you have a
mirror modifier, the physic shape will be limited to one half
of the resulting object. Therefore, the modifiers should
preferably be used on graphic objects.
- Scripts have no access to the modified mesh.
- Modifiers that are based on objects interaction (boolean,..)
will not be dependent on the objects position in the GE.
What you see in the 3D view is what you get in the GE regardless
on the object position, velocity, etc.
Besides that, the feature is compatible with all the BGE features
that affect meshes: armature action, shape action, relace mesh,
VideoTexture, add object, dupligroup.
Known problems:
- This feature is a bit hacky: the BGE uses the derived mesh draw
functions to display the object. This drawing method is a
bit slow and is not 100% compatible with the BGE. There may
be some problems in multi-texture mode: the multi-texture
coordinates are not sent to the GPU.
Texface and GLSL on the other hand should be fully supported.
- Culling is still based on the extend of the original mesh.
If you have a modifer that extends the size of the mesh,
the object may disappear while still in the view frustrum.
- Derived mesh is not shared between replicas.
The derived mesh is allocated and computed for each object
with modifiers, regardless if they are static replicas.
- Display list are not created on objects with modifiers.
I should be able to fix the above problems before release.
However, the feature is already useful for game development.
Once you are ready to release the game, you can apply the modifiers
to get back display list support and mesh sharing capability.
MSVC, scons, Cmake, makefile updated.

/benoit
- Removed the gen_utils.c dependency from Mathutils (since gen_utils wont go into 2.5 but mathutils will), repalced with python functions.
- removed Blender.Mathutils.Point, since it was not documented, the C api never used it, none of our scripts used it (and I never saw a script that used it).
Separate getting a normal attribute and getting __dict__, was having to do too a check for __dict__ on each class (multiple times per getattro call from python) when its not used that often.
- initialize pythons sys.argv in the blenderplayer
- ignore all arguments after a single " - " in the blenderplayer (like in blender), so args can be passed to the game.
- add a utility function PyOrientationTo() - to take a Py euler, quat or 3x3 matrix and convert into a C++ MT_Matrix3x3.
- add utility function ConvertPythonToMesh to get a RAS_MeshObject from a KX_MeshProxy or a name.
- Added error prefix arguments to ConvertPythonToGameObject, ConvertPythonToMesh and PyOrientationTo so the error messages can include what function they came from.
- deprecated brick.getOwner() for the "owner" attribute.
- More verbose error messages.
- BL_Shader wasnt setting error messages on some errors
- FilterNormal depth attribute was checking for float which is bad because scripts often expect ints assigned to float attributes.
- Added a check to PyVecTo for a tuple rather then always using a generic python sequence. On my system this is over 2x faster with an optmized build.
- comments to PyObjectPlus.h
- remove unused/commented junk.
- renamed PyDestructor to py_base_dealloc for consistency
- all the PyTypeObject's were still using the sizeof() their class, can use sizeof(PyObjectPlus_Proxy) now which is smaller too.
This changes how the BGE classes and Python work together, which hasnt changed since blender went opensource.
The main difference is PyObjectPlus - the base class for most game engine classes, no longer inherit from PyObject, and cannot be cast to a PyObject.
This has the advantage that the BGE does not have to keep 2 reference counts valid for C++ and Python.
Previously C++ classes would never be freed while python held a reference, however this reference could be problematic eg: a GameObject that isnt in a scene anymore should not be used by python, doing so could even crash blender in some cases.
Instead PyObjectPlus has a member "PyObject *m_proxy" which is lazily initialized when python needs it. m_proxy reference counts are managed by python, though it should never be freed while the C++ class exists since it holds a reference to avoid making and freeing it all the time.
When the C++ class is free'd it sets the m_proxy reference to NULL, If python accesses this variable it will raise a RuntimeError, (check the isValid attribute to see if its valid without raising an error).
- This replaces the m_zombie bool and IsZombie() tests added recently.
In python return values that used to be..
return value->AddRef();
Are now
return value->GetProxy();
or...
return value->NewProxy(true); // true means python owns this C++ value which will be deleted when the PyObject is freed
Other small changes...
- KX_Camera and KX_Light didnt have get/setitem access in their PyType definition.
- CList.from_id() error checking for a long was checking for -1 against an unsigned value (own fault)
- CValue::SpecialRelease was incrementing an int for no reason.
- renamed m_attrlist to m_attr_dict since its a PyDict type.
- removed custom getattro/setattro functions for KX_Scene and KX_GameObject, use py_base_getattro, py_base_setattro for all subclasses of PyObjectPlus.
- lowercase windows.h in VideoBase.cpp for cross compiling.
Free python modules defined within the blendfile between loading scenes since they would end up accessing old GameLogic, Rasterizer modules as well as old game engine data in the module namespace which can cause problems.
- fix for multiple viewpors broke single viewport (both work now)
- python could get uninitialized values from m_prevTargetPoint and m_prevSourcePoint
- getting the RayDirection for python could crash blender trying to normalize a zero length vector.
- added python attributes
- removed unused canvas from the MouseFocusSensor class
Common cases of this are when python references an object from the AddObject actuator that has ended, or a scene has been loaded and the old objects freed.
This means some scripts will raise errors now in certain cases but better give the error early rather then failing silently with strange hard to track down behavior & crashes.
Added "isValid" attribute for checking objects are in a scene.
At the moment it uses the SceneGraph Node to check of the objects valid but it might be better to do this in a more generic way so scenes, meshes etc also have this check.
There is a problem importing 3ds files where I cant find a way to check if the transforms are applied to the vertex locations or not.
Since 2.44 I made the importer assume they were not since you can manually remove transformations, but not reverse.
Nevertheless most 3ds files have the matrix applied, better not give a bad import by default.
Did some research and other 3ds importers (lib3ds for eg), have the same problem and just assume the transformations applied.
3dsMax imports both correctly so there must be a way to tell but I could not link it to the 3ds version or other mesh options.
Added an option to workaround this problem in rare cases where its needed.
- KX_GameObject.cpp & KX_Scene.cpp, clear the dict before removing the reference in case there is a circular reference.
- The armature weakref list was being incref'd twice then decrefed twice (incref and decref were used incorrectly), now only once. My 'fix' broke this.
- In bpy_pydriver_create_dict the 2 refs added from running PyDict_SetItemString twice were undone when clearing the dictionary (added comment)
- changed Py_XDECREF to Py_DECREF int BPY_pyconstraint_update and BPY_pyconstraint_target, Py_XDECREF checs for NULL value which would have crashed blender before it got to Py_XDECREF anyway.
- after every error is reported (PyErr_Print), remove sys.last_traceback and clear the error, I found this fixed certain crashes (usually when starting the game engine or exiting blender), so best do this all the time.
- header_text.c, CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp, KX_CameraActuator.cpp - remove some warnings.
Clamp objects min/max velocity.
Accessed with bullet physics from the advanced button with dynamic and rigid body objects.
- useful for preventing unstable physics in cases where objects move too fast.
- can add linear velocity with the motion actuator to give smooth motion transitions, without moving too fast.
- minimum velocity means objects don't stop moving.
- python scripts can adjust these values speedup or throttle velocity in the existing direction.
Also made copy properties from an object with no properties work (in case you want to clear all props)
[#17678] "Mouse over" sensor broken when using viewports
Loop over all the scenes camera viewports and check the mouse is inside the viewport before casting a ray.
Added occlusion culling capability in the BGE.
More info: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.49/Game_Engine#BGE_Scenegraph_improvement
MSVC, scons, cmake, Makefile updated.
Other minor performance improvements:
- The rasterizer was computing the openGL model matrix of the objects too many times
- DBVT view frustrum culling was not properly culling behind the near plane:
Large objects behind the camera were sent to the GPU
- Remove all references to mesh split/join feature as it is not yet functional
Support for assigning any Type to a KX_GameObject
so you can do...
gameOb.follow = otherGameOb
gameOb[otherGameOb] = distanceTo
gameOb["path"] = [(x,y,x), (x,y,x)]
del gameOb[mesh]
* types that cannot be converted into CValue types are written into the KX_GameObject dict
* the KX_GameObject dict is only initialized when needed
* Python properties in this dict cannot be accessed by logic bricks
* dir(ob) and ob.getPropertyNames() return items from both CValue and Py dictionary properties.
Also found that CType was converting python lists to CType Lists but very buggy, would crash after printing the list most times.
Use python lists instead since logic bricks dont deal with lists.
added defines PY_SET_ATTR_FAIL, PY_SET_ATTR_MISSING and PY_SET_ATTR_SUCCESS
This is useful when objects that have user defined attributes (GameObject and Scene)
When calling setattr on the parent, a return value of PY_SET_ATTR_FAIL means the attribute exists but failed to be set, so don't set the custom attribute.
There were also some problems with int to python conversion
- assigning a PyLong to a KX_GameObject from python would raise an error
- PyLong were coerced into floats when used with internal CValue arithmetic
Changes...
- PyLong is converted into CIntValue for coercing and assigning from python
- CValue's generic GetNumber() function returns a double rather then a float.
- Print an error when a PyType cant be coerced into a CValue
Tested with python, expressions and property sensor.
- setting the scene attributes would always add to the scenes custom dictionary.
- new CListValue method from_id(id)
so you can store a Game Objects id and use it to get the game object back.
ob_id = id(gameOb)
...
gameOb = scene.objects.from_id(ob_id)
This is useful because names are not always unique.
- Only try and remove light objects from the light list.
- Only loop over mesh verts once when getting the bounding box
- dont return None from python attribute localInertia when theres no physics objects. better return a vector still.
- add names to send message PyArg_ParseTuple functions.
User guide:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/GameEngine/Fisheye_Dome_Camera
Fixed two bugs from original patch:
- deleting a text will clear the warp field from Game framing settings
- removed spurious black dots along the edge of the cube map in the gameplayer
Known limitation:
- resizing of the screen doesn't work in the gameplayer
Known bugs:
- Texture with reflexion are not rendered correctly
- Spurious problems with light
This commit contains a number of performance improvements for the
BGE in the Scenegraph (parent relation between objects in the
scene) and view frustrum culling.
The scenegraph improvement consists in avoiding position update
if the object has not moved since last update and the removal
of redundant updates and synchronization with the physics engine.
The view frustrum culling improvement consists in using the DBVT
broadphase facility of Bullet to build a tree of graphical objects
in the scene. The elements of the tree are Aabb boxes (Aligned
Axis Bounding Boxes) enclosing the objects. This provides good
precision in closed and opened scenes. This new culling system
is enabled by default but just in case, it can be disabled with
a button in the World settings. There is no do_version in this
commit but it will be added before the 2.49 release. For now you
must manually enable the DBVT culling option in World settings
when you open an old file.
The above improvements speed up scenegraph and culling up to 5x.
However, this performance improvement is only visible when
you have hundreds or thousands of objects.
The main interest of the DBVT tree is to allow easy occlusion
culling and automatic LOD system. This will be the object of further
improvements.
- Make BGE's ListValue types convert to python lists for printing since the CValue GetText() function didnt work well- printing lists as [,,,,,] for scene objects and mesh materials for eg.
- Check attributes are descriptor types before casting.
- py_getattr_dict use the Type dict rather then Method and Attribute array.
Use each types dictionary to store attributes PyAttributeDef's so it uses pythons hash lookup (which it was already doing for methods) rather then doing a string lookup on the array each time.
This also means attributes can be found in the type without having to do a dir() on the instance.
- added a module for the BGE - GameTypes, only contains types.
- added KX_PYATTRIBUTE_DUMMY attributes for KX_Light, KX_PolyProxy, KX_VertexProxy, so all types should give correct results from a dir().
- added a script to check for missing methods in the epydocs - bge_api_validate_py.txt
Previously this only worked with the Blender API.
- bpy_internal_import small C file that Blender scripting and the game engine use.
- Tested with blender, blenderplayer, loading files
- Needed to use a hack to override the Main struct since the game engine doesn't set G.main
- when the sandbox is set, only internal scripts can be imported.
- action attribute wasnt checking for NULL (own fault)
- KX_Scene getCamera wasnt checking for NULL
- CListValue had asserts for not yet implimented functionality, this would close blender. Better to print an error if the user manages to run this functions (I managed to by CListValue.count([1,2,3]))
KX_PolygonMaterial and KX_BlenderMaterial - Added a print function (would raise a python error on printing)
* Crashes *
KX_GameObject SetParent - Disallowed setting a parent to its self, caused a recursion crash.
KX_MeshProxy "materials" attribute was segfaulting because of my recent change - I was wrong, you do need to check material types (no idea why since they are both PyObject * at the base)
KX_VisibilityActuator - Wasn't initialized with PyType_Ready() making it crash on access (own fault)
* Crashes because of missing NULL checks *
KX_PolygonMaterial's "gl_texture" attribute wasnt checking for a valid m_tface
KX_GameObject - added checks for GetPhysicsController()
KX_RayCast::RayTest - didnt check for a valid physics_environment
KX_SceneActuator's getCamera python function wasnt checking if there was a camera.
- made camera use PyAttributeDef's
- removed unneeded duplicate matrix type checks
- fixed own bug (added since 2.48a) that broke a converting 4x4 matrix to a PyObject
