1) Add fast branchless SIMD support for constraint solver (Windows only until we get other contributions).
See resolveSingleConstraintRowGenericSIMD in Bullet/src/BulletDynamics/ConstraintSolver/btSequentialImpulseConstraintSolver.cpp
resolveSingleConstraintRowGenericSIMD can be used for all constraints, including contact, point 2 point, hinge, generic etc.
2) During this refactoring, all constraints support the obsolete 'solveConstraintObsolete' while we add 'getInfo1' and 'getInfo2' support.
This interface is almost identical interface to Open Dynamics Engine, to make it easier to port Dantzig LCP solver.
3) Some minor refactoring to reduce huge constructor overhead in math classes.
+ Share some more code between SpuParallelSolver and btSequentialImpulseConstraintSolver (both use btSolverBody now)
Lack of warmstarting reported here: http://bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2858
+ allow btBoxBoxDetector to execute on SPU.
Disable libxml LIBXML_MODULE_EXTENSION
Fixed include path in btConeTwistConstraint (it should be relative to src folder, not using ../../ )
Thanks to ejtttje, http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=129
Disable btSphereBoxCollisionAlgorithm, it is broken.
More fixes for btSimpleBroadphase
Moved quickstep to Extras/quickstep folder, so developers don't get confused which constraint solver is default.
+ improved friction warm starting
+ made constraint solver configuration more consistent (moved m_solverMode into btContactSolverInfo)
+ reset timing in CDTestFramework after initialization (SAP init destorts timings)
+ make it easier to change default sizes for stack allocator in btDefaultCollisionConfiguration
call CProfileManager::CleanupMemory(), to cleanup btQuickprof memory.
changed include from #include <new.h> to #include <new> in btOdeQuickstepConstraintSolver.cpp
virtual void getAllContactManifolds(btManifoldArray& manifoldArray)
See Demos/CharacterDemo/CharacterDemo.cpp for example usage of getAllContactManifolds
Added btDbvtBroadphase to btBulletCollisionCommon.h headerfile
Enable soft body vs concave (albeit slow)
Improved contact point debug rendering (moved from constraint solver into debugDrawWorld)
+ fixed issue with persistent manifold, warmstarting values were not initialized properly
+ don't clear manifold in sphere-sphere collision (need warmstarting)
+ added support for 'split impulse', decouple positional error correction from velocity correction
This avoids adding momentum due to penetration correction, it can be tuned using following variables:
solverInfo.m_splitImpulse = true/false (disable/enable)
solverInfo.m_splitImpulsePenetrationThreshold (below this value, baumgarte/mixed velocity/penetration is used (cheaper, looks more plausible)
solverInfo.m_linearSlop (less jitter, when small amound of penetration is allowed)
Thanks Martijn Reuvers from Two Tribes B.V. (www.twotribes.com) for the patch
To make this work more visible, suppress warnings in external libraries in Extras (COLLADA_DOM, libxml and glui contain many warnings)
Added PreprocessorDefinitions: _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE;_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE to vcproj files
- copy user data over to child shape
- added applied impulse to btManifoldPoint
- add ContactProcessedCallback (needs test/demo)
- didn't copy over m_additionalDampingFactor into btRigidBody.
This was harder using default arguments. Thanks Vangelis Kokkevis for pointing this out.
- Fixed memoryleak in the ConstraintDemo and Raytracer demo.
- fixed issue with clearing forces/gravity at the end of the stepSimulation, instead of during internalSingleStepSimulation.
Thanks chunky for pointing this out: http://www.bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1780
- Disabled additional damping in rigid body by default, but enable it in most demos. Set btRigidBodyConstructionInfo m_additionalDamping to true to enable this.
- Removed obsolete QUICKPROF BEGIN/END_PROFILE, and enabled BT_PROFILE. Profiling is enabled by default (see Bullet/Demos/OpenGL/DemoApplication.cpp how to use this).
User can switch off profiling by enabling define BT_NO_PROFILE in Bullet/src/btQuickprof.h.
