add compound shape support to BulletXmlWorldImporter and fix some compile issue under Debian (hopefully)
object picking change in the demos: create a ball-socket picking constraint when holding shift while mouse dragging, otherwise a fixed (6dof) constraint
add assert in constraint solver, when both objects have their inertia tensor rows set to zero
btPolyhedralContactClipping: add edge-edge contact point in findSeparatingAxis (similar to the default GJK case)
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RV7sBAsKu4M and Bullet/Demos/RollingFrictionDemo
Fixes in FractureDemo (mouse picking constraint needs to be removed, otherwise constraint solver crashes/asserts)
(make sure to merge islands based on those predictive contacts too, added some check in the solver)
This fixes Issue 356.
Use same solver settings for AllBulletDemos
Make sure to embed the setCcdSweptSphereRadius inside the actual collision shape (for shoot box)
This should improve 'ccd' handling when using world->getDispatchInfo().m_useContinuous = true;body->setCcdSquareMotionThreshold(...); body->setCcdSquareMotionThreshold(...)
shoot smaller boxes (test)
use yellow instead of orange for contact point normals
tweak default erp and erp2 values, now split impulse is on by default (need to check it)
For OSX:
cd build
./premake_osx xcode4
for iOS:
cd build
./ios_build.sh
./ios_run.sh
Also integrated the branches/StackAllocation to make it easier to multi-thread collision detection in the near future. It avoids changing the btCollisionObject while performing collision detection.
As this is a large patch, some stuff might be temporarily broken, I'll keep an eye out on issues.
If you need tunneling prevention, one option is to use the CCD motion clamping in btDiscreteDynamicsWorld. See also Bullet/Demos/CcdPhysicsDemo.
You can use an embedded sphere that prevents tunneling, using the following settings:
body->setCcdMotionThreshold(0.5);
body->setCcdSweptSphereRadius(0.9f);
Add a camera zoom setting for the demos, thanks to ejtttje, fixes Issue 543
Added Demos/ThreadingDemo showing how to use the cross-platform btThreadSupportInterface under Windows.
Added Demos/ParticlesOpenCL showing how to run the NVidia particle demo under OpenCL implementations by AMD, NVidia and MiniCL (CPU)
improve serialization based on feedback: make it easier to serialize a single object, or single shape, or single bvh.
Modified Bullet/Demos/ConcaveDemo to use btSerializer to serialize the btOptimizedBvh (or optionally the trimesh+bvh)
You can also serialize trimesh without BVH, use:
serializer->setSerializationFlags(BT_SERIALIZE_NO_BVH);// or BT_SERIALIZE_NO_TRIANGLEINFOMAP
Toggle between point to point and generic 6dof constraint for mouse picking in the demos
Use a 'equal vertex thresdhold' in the btVoronoiSimplexSolver of 0.0001f by default.
This can be disabled (or configured) using defaultCollisionConfiguration->getSimplexSolver()->setEqualVertexThreshold(0.f);
See http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=305
Tweak the BenchmarkDemo a bit:
1) disable deactivation in graphical mode
2) add some settings that increase performance in the BenchmarkDemo2 (1000 stack) from 35ms to 15ms on this quad core (at the cost of a bit of quality)
manually add some missing files to msvc projectfiles for now
fix in box-box collision detector, preventing it to fail in some rare cases
remove redundant line in btHingeConstraint, thanks to teravus
fix mouse drag camera rotation issue (modulo 360 instead of 180)
For example, to only allow linear motion in the X-Z plane, and only rotation around Y axis use:
body->setLinearFactor(btVector3(1,0,1));
body->setAngularFactor(btVector3(0,1,0));
Fix build issues with CodeBlocks, when generating projectfiles using CMake 2.6:
${OPENGL_glU_LIBRARY} should be ${OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY}
Fix build issue with CodeBlocks, comment out xmlfree in Extras/COLLADA_DOM/src/modules/LIBXMLPlugin/daeLIBXMLPlugin.cpp (will leak memory)
Revert definition for ATTRIBUTE_ALIGNED16, and try to force sizeof(btSolverConstraint) by using unions with btScalar, for non-btScalar data types.
Use btAssert and not assert.
Don't access btAlignedObjectArray elements, for zero sets
Please see HfFluidDemo.cpp for examples of how to use the height field fluid along with buoyant collision shapes.
The implementation is still lacking in my ways:
1) Need to complete more collision algorithms for buoyant collision shapes
2) Support compound buoyant shapes
3) The buoyancy model isn't that great
4) Fluid volume can be lost over time
Renamed collideRay -> rayTest to reflect change to (rayFrom,rayTo) interface.
Re-use btRayAabb2 function from src/LinearMath/btAabbUtil2.h in btDbvt instead of duplicated implementation.
Thanks to sparkprime, see http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=74
Fixed btCompoundShape/btCapsuleShape/btGImpactShape for missing m_shapeType, and added an assert in DemoApplication::localCreateRigidBody for invalid shape types.
Add dynamic aabb tree (btDbvt) optimization for btCompoundShape/btCompoundCollisionAlgorithm
Add btTransformAabb util, todo: deploy it throughout the codebase
