1) add AabbCaching versions of btPolyhedralConvexShape and btMultiSphereShape (this speeds up btMultiSphereShape 'getAabb', and reduces size of btBoxShape)
2) btCylinderShape doesn't derive from btBoxShape anymore
+ Minor fixes in drawing for btMultiSphereShape, btBoxShape.
+ Don't re-generate btDebugFont every frame
+ Disabled velocity prediction for btDbvtBroadphase. Previous default can be restored using btDbvtBroadphase->setVelocityPrediction(1./2.);
+ applied patch to mix double/single precision meshes independent from double/single precision Bullet build
Thanks to Ole for the patch, http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=213
+ re-enable warming starting in constraint solver, it was disabled by accident
+ fix btConvexHullShape constructor, so accept vertices with non-16-byte striding
Thanks Shawn Baird for report and fix: http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=204
Added optional flag btSoftBody::appendAnchor( int node,btRigidBody* body, bool disableCollisionBetweenLinkedBodies=false), to disable collision between soft body and rigid body, when pinned
Added btCollisionObject::setAnisotropicFriction, to scale friction in x,y,z direction.
Added btCollisionObject::setContactProcessingThreshold(float threshold), to avoid collision resolution of contact above a certain distance.
Avoid collisions between static objects (causes the CharacterDemo to assert, when a dynamic object hits character)
Usage: set RayResultCallback.m_flags to kF_FilterBackfaces, optionally combined with kF_KeepUnflippedNormal.
Thanks Andy O'Neil for the patch!
Remove the force_inline for some internal constraint solver methods, it makes re-use easier.
Workaround/avoid MSVC 2005 compiler error in LibXML/trionan.c
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
improve CollisionDemo.cpp, show multi-contact generation using perturbation
improve ColladaConverter: add hinge/point 2 point constraint conversion support, add btScaledTriangleMeshShape support
Fix Dynamica MayaPlygin: remove 'active' flag, it has to be replaced by mass=0 for active, mass<>0 for passive
Added missing projectfiles
Fixed single-shot contact generation. it is disabled by default to improve performance
Bugfixes for character controller, thanks to John McCutchan for reporting
Constraint solver: better default settings
btDefaultAllocator: aligned allocator uses non-aligned allocator (instead of directly malloc/free)
disable memalign by default, use Bullet's aligned allocator
See issue http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=20:
Note that the default number of pertubation iterations (10) and pertubation angle (0.05) can be modified through the collisionConfiguration:
btConvexPlaneCollisionAlgorithm::CreateFunc* func = (btConvexPlaneCollisionAlgorithm::CreateFunc*)collisionConfiguration->getCollisionAlgorithmCreateFunc(BOX_SHAPE_PROXYTYPE,STATIC_PLANE_PROXYTYPE);
func->m_numPertubationIterations = 0;
func = (btConvexPlaneCollisionAlgorithm::CreateFunc*)collisionConfiguration->getCollisionAlgorithmCreateFunc(STATIC_PLANE_PROXYTYPE,BOX_SHAPE_PROXYTYPE);
func->m_numPertubationIterations = 0;
Note: ColladaConverter will export a btGImpactConvexDecompositionShape the same as a btCompoundShape, so importing an exported btGImpactConvexDecompositionShape (roundtrip) creates a btCompoundShape
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
Thanks to Ole for reporting
Fix a bug , causing some deep penetrations to be missed. Not likely to have impacted many users, as such deep penetrations should have prevented in the first place.
Thanks a lot to Andy O'Neil for reporting and reproduction case.
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.
Add Concave Convexcast demo back in AllBulletDemos, and tweaked it a bit.
Fix view frustum of ForkLiftDemo (caused picking to fail)
Removed innerloop profiling for ray and convex casts, it hurts performance.
Set default #aabb's in CDTestFramework to 8192
1) creating a broadphase proxy -> adding pairs during insertion. But during this pair insertion, the btGhostObject broadphase handle isn't set yet (it is done in step 2)
2) assign the broadphase proxy to btGhostObject
Thanks to ihar3d for the report http://bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2864
Fix issues with btDbvt: use ATTRIBUTE_ALIGNED16
Removed several places where variable was declared within for statement: for (int i=0; should be int i; for (i=0
