Shape Action are now supported in the BGE. A new type of actuator "Shape Action" is available on mesh objects. It can be combined with Action actuator on parent armature. Only relative keys are supported. All the usual action options are available: type, blending, priority, Python API. Only actions with shape channels should be specified of course, otherwise the actuator has no effect. Shape action will still work after a mesh replacement provided that the new mesh has compatible shape keys.
This patch consists in new KX_GameObject::SetParent() and KX_GameObject::RemoveParent() functions to create and destroy parent relation during game. These functions are accessible through python and through a new actuator KX_ParentActuator. Function documentation in PyDoc.
The object keeps its orientation, position and scale when it is parented but will further rotate, move and scale with its parent from that point on. When the parent relation is broken, the object keeps the orientation, position and scale it had at that time.
The function has no effect if any of the X/Y/Z scale of the object or its new parent are below Epsilon.
This code adds a basic and simple skeleton generator.
Examples and links are in the wiki, docs will come eventually: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Theeth/skeletor
In a nutshell, select a vertex at the top of the head and press "Generate Skeleton". UI Panel is in the Editing buttons in Edit Mode, tooltips and semi-useful.
- update for new particle system
- made blenderplayer.exe compile again (DDS library missing)
- exchanged a few float math functions (logf, sinf, cosf, expf, powf) with their double counterparts in CMP_nodes
(MSVC chokes on them, because the compiler is not C99 compliant)
=========
Merge of the famous particle patch by Janne Karhu, a full rewrite
of the Blender particle system. This includes:
- Emitter, Hair and Reactor particle types.
- Newtonian, Keyed and Boids physics.
- Various particle visualisation and rendering types.
- Vertex group and texture control for various properties.
- Interpolated child particles from parents.
- Hair editing with combing, growing, cutting, .. .
- Explode modifier.
- Harmonic, Magnetic fields, and multiple falloff types.
.. and lots of other things, some more info is here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Particles_Rewritehttp://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Particles_Rewrite_Doc
The new particle system cannot be backwards compatible. Old particle
systems are being converted to the new system, but will require
tweaking to get them looking the same as before.
Point Cache
===========
The new system to replace manual baking, based on automatic caching
on disk. This is currently used by softbodies and the particle system.
See the Cache API section on:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/PhysicsSprint
Documentation
=============
These new features still need good docs for the release logs, help
for this is appreciated.
* Added Windows specific implementation for fnmatch taken from GNU/MINGW/MSYS C library
* behaviour should now be the same as under Linux and other OSs
* changed filename for fnmatch.h to ensure we include the correct one if we link with the included implementation
* tested compile with MSVC 7.1 and gcc(MinGW-5.1.3) on Windows.
* added support for .dds image files
* added support for .int, .inta and .rgba image files
== MSVC 7.1 project files ==
* added WITH_DDS to support .dds files when compiling with the project files by default
* added the dds source files to imbuf project
* also added CMP_glare, CMP_lensdist, CMP_tonemap nodes to nodes.vcproj
Added include compiler switches for windows to make pthread.h accessible
and reverted Joshua's patch.
(Joshua: the prefetch buffering has _nothing_ to do with FFMPEG!)
If this still does not fix the problem, please send an email to me!
I also fixed
source\blender\src\sequence.c(1405) : error C2275: 'PrefetchThread'
GCC is way to gracefully in latest versions... :)
Initial commit of imagebrowser in trunk.
BIG COMMIT!
Main changes:
* completely reworked imasel space
* creation and storage of the preview images for materials, textures, world and lamp
* thumbnails of images and movie files when browsing in the file system
* loading previews from external .blend when linking or appending
* thumbnail caching according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard: http://jens.triq.net/thumbnail-spec/
* for now just kept imasel access mostly as old imgbrowser (CTRL+F4, CTRL+F1) a bit hidden still.
* filtering of file types (images, movies, .blend, py,...)
* preliminary managing of bookmarks ('B' button to add, XKEY while bookmark active to delete)
More detailed info which will be updated here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/PreviewImageBrowser
Places that need special review (and probably fixes):
* BLO_blendhandle_get_previews in readblenentry
* readfile.c: do_version and refactorings of do_library_append
* UI integration
TODO and known issues still:
* Accented characters do not display correctly with international fonts
* Crash was reported when browsing in directory with movie files
* Bookmark management still needs some UI work (second scrollbar?), feedback here is welcome!

Many thanks to everyone who gave feedback and helped so far!
maintenance work:
- internally renamed nodes lib to BL_nodes to follow naming of other libs, renaming of
actual projectfile will follow after move to svn.
- added missing include dirs for new BL_nodes lib
- removed hardcoded include dir in nodes lib
- changed nodes lib to not 'compile as C++', but as default, so .c as C, .cpp as C++
- still found PHY_Ode dependency in ActiveX plugin which I removed
summary:
All should compile fine again now, let me know of any problems.
