Add rayTest to btBroadphaseInterface, and implement efficient version for btDbvtBroadphase to accelerate raycasting.
btAxisSweep3, btSimpleBroadphase and btMultiSapBroadphase implement brute-force method (as before). For now, it is recommended to use btDbvtBroadphase for fastest world raycast.
1) re-allocate a pool allocator, if one of the soft body collision algorithms is larger than max pool element size
2) manage child shapes properly, and call RemoveReferences on the m_sparsesdf
Add dynamic aabb tree (btDbvt) optimization for btCompoundShape/btCompoundCollisionAlgorithm
Add btTransformAabb util, todo: deploy it throughout the codebase
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.
+ normalize plane normal input for btStaticPlaneShape
+ fixed issue related to swapped collision detectors (SphereTriangleDetector in particular)
Thanks a lot to Andrey Tuganov for reporting the issue and his reproduction case ( http://www.bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2143 )
rename AddSingleResult to addSingleResult
moved collision filtering for btCollisionWorld::rayTest and btCollisionWorld::convexSweepTest from argument to the callback needsCollision
+ improved btSubsimplexConvexCast, btContinuousConvexCollision and btGjkConvexCast to support configuration that start in touching/penetration, required for 'sliding'.
+ added files to CMakeLists.txt for CharacterController
+ bump up version to 2.70 (preparation for beta)
+ 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
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
moved Extras/ConvexHull/btConvexHull.* to src/LinearMath/btConvexHull.*
removed btCollisionObject::m_internalOwner, replaced it by m_internalType. This should not affect external API (it was clearly marked as internal)
+ fix related btMinkowskiSumShape issue in btSubsimplexConvexCast and btGjkConvexCast
+ add hitpoint for btSubsimplexConvexCast
+ reduce maximum number of iterations in conservative advancement/CCD implementations
- replaced all usage of heapSort by quickSort
- finished btMultiSapBroadphase. Still some work to be done to increase performance (faster add/remove from child broadphases.
uses currently AABB tree to locate child broadphase (should use grid), and sorted array takes too much time.
- 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.
