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

Generally, however, it is best to avoid copying entire arrays, but use a
reference.
typedef btAlignedObjectArray<btSomeClass> Array;
Array a;
Array b = a;//avoid this whenever possible
This is much better:
Array& b = a;//use a reference
const Array& b = a; //or const reference
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
