Extended dynamica tools (MB_dynamica) #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Submitted here for inclusion under the ZLib licence per Erwin's request on the 
Bullet Forums:
http://bulletphysics.org/Bullet/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5576

Contributor access would be useful since I'm planning continued development of 
these tools.

Updated dynamicaUI.mel to fix issue with Bake tool and restore constraint 
operation. Constraints still won't allow connection between dRBs with child 
transforms.

The dynamicaUI_ -> dUI_ breaks some script: pressing that EfxToolsLumiere 
button fails with the message : cannot find procedure "dynamicaUI_createWindow"

I prefer not to break API, if possible, although there is some bloat indeed. 
Aside from that, it should be good to go.

yes, dUI does break things. I restored the dynamicaUI prefix in my latest 
scripts - to preserve compatibility. bloat is present - and my additions have 
doubled the script size! Not sure if/how Maya optimizes MEL - dUI was easier to 
type!

Would you like me to overwrite the current dynamicaUI.mel script, or include my 
tools as a separate script (as they are in v2.77)? Overwriting would give users 
access via the EfxToolsLumiere button, rather than having to run a MEL command.

BTW, we exchanged a bit via the Blender forums back around 2000/2001/2002 - if 
I remember correctly, you were solely maintaining the game engine around 
versions 2.34/2.40...the beginnings of Open Source Blender and Bullet...I 
remember something about you going over to Havok for a while...

Could you first attach an up-to-date patch to this issue, so I can try it out 
(preferably maintaining backwards compatibility).

Then if it works fine here, you can commit.

Can you confirm that your work is under the same license as the rest of the 
code/scripts?

Thanks,
Erwin

re backward compatibility: will attach first, and await the OK to commit.

I am OK with the zlib license. should it be included in the source for 
dynamicaUI.mel? the 2008 Disney disclaimer is still there - should this be 
overwritten?

no need to change/adjust license headers etc, please leave it as is.

Do you have a patch ready?

Ideally you also update the Dynamica/Extras/MayaPlugin/docs/index.html,
and/or add some documentation in the wiki here:
http://bulletphysics.org/mediawiki-1.5.8/index.php/Maya_Dynamica_Plugin

The wiki uses the same username/password as the Bullet forums
Thanks!
Erwin

dynamicaUI.mel committed.

Documentation is definitely the next item on my list...just need some time...

I have made a few minor bug fixes, should I commit the changes or wait?

Please go ahead and commit the fixes. Please describe the fixes in the commit 
log.

Great, thanks for all the work!

Do you have an idea how to fix the error message about Error: Cannot find 
procedure "bulletExportOptions" in Issue 4?
