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
+ 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)
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
- applied a large patch to remove warnings
Thanks to Enrico, see http://www.bulletphysics.com/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1568
- removed SSE includes, added #incude <string.h> for memset in Extras/quickstep, thanks Eternl Knight
- disabled 16-byte alignement on btQuadWord class, it causes problems under PS3 Linux. Need to check out why.
boxbox reports contact point in B, rather then average point
box, cylinder use halfextents corrected for scaling and margin. made the margin in this halfextents explicit in the 'getHalfExtentsWithMargin' and 'getHalfExtentsWithoutMargin'
integrated changed for ODE quickstep solver
replaced inline with SIMD_FORCE_INLINE
some minor optimizations in the btSequentialImpulseConstraintSolver
added cone drawing (for X,Y,Z cones)
added hashtable based PairManager, thanks Pierre Terdiman and Erin Catto
improved friction in 'cachefriendly' solver
moved 'refreshcontactpoints' into collision detection, instead of solver
avoid linear search for contact manifolds, by storing an index
ignore margin for sphere shape (its entire radius is already margin)
avoid alignment checks in BVH serialization, they don't compile on 64-bit architectures
made 'bomb' box more heavy
- 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
Some dynamic memory allocations have been replace by pool allocation or stack allocations.
quantized aabb versus quantized aabb overlap check is made branch-free (helps a lot on consoles PS3/XBox 360)
Collision algorithms are now created through a new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration, to decouple dependency (this is the API change):
Example:
btDefaultCollisionConfiguration* collisionConfiguration = new btDefaultCollisionConfiguration();
m_dispatcher = new btCollisionDispatcher(collisionConfiguration);
improved hinge constraint: adds limits
added btAtan2Fast
quaternion helper functions
All thanks to Starbreeze Studios / Marcus Hennix, Marten Svanfeldt
btFullAssert ( yadda_yadda ) ;
...in the btScalar.h header, it's defined as:
#define btFullAssert
...which means that the statement above becomes:
( yadda_yadda ) ;
...which means that code may actually be compiled and executed (unnecessarily) - and even when the code is something simple like:
( i > 0 && i < 3 ) ;
...the GCC tosses out a 'statement with no effect' warning - before
it optimises away the code.
The fix is:
#define btFullAssert(x)
...so that the macro still takes a parameter which is now removed
from the sources so you get:
;
...which is guaranteed not to generate code.
