The Lemke implementation is not fully working yet:
1) we need to convert the lo-high LCP problem into a problem without the lo/high
2) we need to sort out the remaining instabilities, and report a failure if the max loopcount is reached etc.
We replaced the fmatvec library with our own LinearMath/btMatrixX.h, and STL std::vector with btAlignedObjectArray
Removed some warnings/potential issues: use fuzzyZero instead of isZero, and some warnings,
related to this issue 756
The original version was written by Stephen Thompson.
I replaced Eigen math by Bullet LinearMath, and added a dedicated 6x6 matrix solver.
Also I integrated support for collisions/contact constraints between btMultiBody and btRigidBody, and de-activation support.
See Demos/FeatherstoneMultiBodyDemo/Win32FeatherstoneMultiBodyDemo.cpp for example usage.
There is currently only support for contact constraints for btMultiBody.
Next on the list will be adding support for joint limit constraint for btMultiBody.
The implementation is still experimental/untested, the quality will improve in upcoming Bullet releases.
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.
Thanks to Roman Ponomarev for the report
Make btVector3::rotate const
Thanks to lepoussin, see Issue 428
CMakeLists.txt improvement: don't copy resources when INTERNAL_CREATE_DISTRIBUTABLE_MSVC_PROJECTFILES is set
CMakeLists.txt improvement: INSTALL_EXTRA_LIBS for ConvexDecomposition and GIMPACTUtils
Thanks to andrebra, see Issue 425
+ Allow user to enable useConvexConservativeDistanceUtil . Use dynamicsWorld->getDispatchInfo().m_useConvexConservativeDistanceUtil = true;
(see Demos/Benchmarks/Benchmark4 (convex objects falling down)
+ Fix for plane drawing (just wire-frame)
+ Gimpact: use collision margin of 0.07 for demo (because BULLET_TRIANGLE_COLLISION is used)
+ replace dot,cross,distance,angle,triple in btVector3 by btDot, btCross,btDistance,btAngle,btDistance to avoid naming conflicts
+ Some fixes in GJK penetration depth normal direction (broken in a previous commit)
+ fix in calculateDiffAxisAngleQuaternion to make ConvexConservativeDistanceUtil work properly
+ allow debug drawing to debug btContinuousConvexCollision
+ add comment/warning that btTriangleMesh::findOrAddVertex is an internal method, users should use addTriangle instead
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.
btQuantizedBvh has a version number, memory layout might be different now (due to aligned btVector3)
reorganized some data members of some classes, to reduce memory footprint
- added bt32BitAxisSweep3, which co-exists without recompilation, using template class. This broadphase is recommended for large worlds with many objects (> 16384), until btMultiSwap is finished.
- Fixed some recent issues in Bullet 2.57 related to compound (thanks Proctoid) and memory allocations
