Fluid domains with (auto-generated) particle systems were set to wireframe drawtype automatically. This was a convenience feature that made particles visible immediately. As the auto switching is sometimes a bit annoying though this has been removed. Instead, the Quick Liquid Operator switches the viewport shading type to wireframe.
With Mantaflow the current smoke modifier UI will accommodate both smoke and liquids.
In addition, there is now an option for Mantaflow liquids in the quick effects section ("Quick Liquid").

Material setup for quick explode was assuming a shader with a "BSDF"
output socket connected to the material output node whereas other socket
names are valid ("Shader", "Emission", "BSSRDF", "Holdout"...)
- Add missing tooltips to Quick Effects and Subdivide Edge Ring
- Add proper tooltip to the Bevel operator
- Clearer tooltips for the extrude operators
Plus a few other tweaks
Suggested by users on Devtalk.
- Logical use of fields since they define type information.
- Avoids using ordered-dict metaclass.
Properties using regular assignments will print a warning and load,
however the order is undefined.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
ViewRender was removed, which means we can't get the render engine for files
saved in 2.8. We assume that any files saved in 2.8 were intended to use Eevee
and set the engine to that.
A fix included with this is that .blend thumbails now draw with Clay mode,
and never Eevee or Cycles. These were drawn with solid mode in 2.7, and should
be very fast and not e.g. load heavy image textures.

Similar to the Principled BSDF, this should make it easier to set up volume
materials. Smoke and fire can be rendererd with just a single principled
volume node, the appropriate attributes will be used when available. The node
also works for simpler homogeneous volumes like water or mist.

- Read-only access can often use EvaluationContext.object_mode
- Write access to go to WorkSpace.object_mode.
- Some TODO's remain (marked as "TODO/OBMODE")
- Add-ons will need updating
(context.active_object.mode -> context.workspace.object_mode)
- There will be small/medium issues that still need resolving
this does work on a basic level though.
See D3037
The settings.frame_start rna was clamping frame start to frame end when frame start was bigger than frame end.
The fix is simply to set frame end first
compiled.
This adds a short message to the smoke, remesh and boolean modifiers' UI
when trying to use them when their compilation was turned off. This was
already implemented for the fluid and ocean simulation modifiers.
This also makes the 'quick fluid' and 'quick smoke' operator abort and
report when trying to use them when unavailable.
Forbid add quick fur operator from adding fur to objects in edit mode.
Fur is not visible for them anyway and because of local undo stack used
in edit mode tweaking values of this operator does not lead to proper
operator redo.
* Improved Cycles fire, patch by Gottfried Hofmann. Differential revision: https://developer.blender.org/D777
* Added Smoke + Fire type to the operator too.
* Cleanup.
* Add Density multiplier.
* Use Smoke color attribute.
Patch by Gottfried Hofmann, with some small tweaks by myself.

This is hopefully the ultimate solution against smoke blockiness near emitter.
Previously high resolution flow/emitter voxels were generated based on the low resolution ones. So if you had 32 resolution and 4 division high resolution, it still used smoke flow generated from those 32 resolution voxels. Now I introduced a new sampling method called "Full Sample" that generates full resolution flow for for high resolution domain as well.
Read more about it in my blog post: https://www.miikahweb.com/en/blog/2013/05/10/getting-rid-of-smoke-blockiness
Also changed "quick smoke" operator default voxel data interpolation mode to "Cubic B-Spline" to smoothen out it even more.

Patch by Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk), just did style change (better to not define a value twice, so only affecting the three color components, not the alpha, also using the slice syntax makes things much more compact ;) ), thanks!
