* Removed dynamic linking libTIFF code and change it to static linking
(built into the blender executable). Dynamic linking made things a
fair bit more complicated and wasn't working at all before on OS X -
the dylib didn't exist and wasn't being copied. Since TIFF is more heavily
depended upon now in Blender, it makes sense to make it less 'optional'
and more in line with other libraries.
I've updated both CMake and scons, and CMake on OS X/64bit works fine.
It's now up to other platform/build system maintainers to enable this for
their respective platforms (Campbell will check it for linux). For windows,
and non-64bit osx, we need static libtiff libraries in /lib.
I've added options WITH_TIFF for CMake and WITH_BF_TIFF for scons,
so if blender won't build because of this, you should be able to disable
these options until your build system has been updated.
* Bonus feature: while doing this, I added support for loading 16bit and 32bit
per channel TIFFs - they get converted to Blender's float buffers. Handy for
zbrush displacement maps!
tile cache code in imbuf, but it is not hooked up to the render engine.
Imbuf module: some small refactoring and removing a lot of unused or old code
(about 6.5k lines).
* Added a ImFileType struct with callbacks to make adding an file format type,
or making changes to the API easier.
* Move imbuf init/exit code into IMB_init()/IMB_exit() functions.
* Increased mipmap levels from 10 to 20, you run into this limit already with
a 2k image.
* Removed hamx, amiga, anim5 format support.
* Removed colormap saving, only simple colormap code now for reading tga.
* Removed gen_dynlibtiff.py, editing this is almost as much work as just
editing the code directly.
* Functions removed that were only used for sequencer plugin API:
IMB_anim_nextpic, IMB_clever_double, IMB_antialias, IMB_gamwarp,
IMB_scalefieldImBuf, IMB_scalefastfieldImBuf, IMB_onethird, IMB_halflace,
IMB_dit0, IMB_dit2, IMB_cspace
* Write metadata info into OpenEXR images. Can be viewed with the command
line utility 'exrheader'

scene from context for background render. Ideally this should not be
using the context to get the scene but currently the active scene is
not stored anywhere, as it's a concept we tried to get rid of.. just
did a simple fix for now.
- update internal 'btempdir' from userprefs on changing and initializing the temp dir.
- add sequence strip operators nolonger require the sequence view to be active (better for automation).
(commit 27434 by Campbell from render25 branch)
setting sys.stdin to None is done so python wont lock blender when it tries to read from the input. - help() from the console does this.
Running blender with -d keeps the stdin so python debugging can work. add info in the help message about this.
eventually it might be best to replace sys.stdin with our own object which interacts with the console but this is not trivial.
* I put it under General->System. Not sure is the better place for it though (space_userpref.py)
** also: creator.c fix to avoid autoplay of games when scripts are disabled.
It's (still) not working since the pool in the operator will not allow this operator to run without context.
For the window/area/screen has to be created somewhere (maybe in WM_init_game ).
I have no idea on what should be done to initialize it here, so if anyone knows how to proceed, please help here.
* side note: should we also have it as a command line option?
and made that the default for windows software opengl because that
seems to be working better at least on XP. Previously this could only
be specified from the command line.
This also means that only -s and -S are accepted to set start frame and scene (before, it would accept anything that started with s or S, you could have done blender -b file.blend -super 1 -Science "scene 2").
We really need better argument parsing...
Useful when openAL is not setup properly (*cough* pulseaudio *cough) and prevents startup.
This doesn't actually affect the userpref option, so you can set it to whatever you want, save userprefs and restart.
* Now has documentation links and recent files.
* Click on image or outside splash to make it go away.
* Still has old image, new one will be committed later.
