This callback allows the user to change the camera data right before the
rendering calculations.
scene.pre_draw[] is not enough here, because if you want to change the
camera matrices (projection/modelview) the culling test is done before
that (after pre_draw_setup[] though).

Python sample code using this. The sample scene would need a default
camera (not used for rendering), a dummy camera ('Camera.VR'), and two
cameras ('Camera.Left', 'Camera.Right') that will be used for the actual
rendering.
```
import bge
def callback():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
objects = scene.objects
vr_camera = objects.get('Camera.VR')
if bge.render.getStereoEye() == bge.render.LEFT_EYE:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Left')
else:
camera = objects.get('Camera.Right')
vr_camera.worldOrientation = camera.worldOrientation
vr_camera.worldPosition = camera.worldPosition
def init():
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
main_camera = scene.active_camera
main_camera.useViewport = True
scene.pre_draw_setup.append(callback)
objects = scene.objects
vr_camera = objects.get('Camera.VR')
vr_camera.useViewport = True
vr_camera.setViewport(
0,
0,
bge.render.getWindowWidth(),
bge.render.getWindowHeight() )
```
This Patch will add a the world API (mist, background, ambient) to KX_WorldInfo.
The new API uses now attributes.

This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

This is mostly the same fix as before, but now code depending on culling
checks is executed after KX_Scene->CalculateVisibleMeshes(). As a
side-effect, LoD checks and animation culling now use the current
frame's culling information rather than the previous frame's.
Levels of detail can be added and modified in the object panel. The object
panel also contains new tools for generating levels of detail, setting up
levels of detail based on object names (useful for importing), and
clearing an object's level of detail settings. This is meant as a game
engine feature, though the level of details settings can be previewed in
the viewport.

This fix is mostly based off of HG1's patch from the bug report, which had ImageRender::Render() call KX_KetsjiEngine::RenderFonts(). However, I have moved RenderFonts() from KX_KetsjiEngine to KX_Scene where all of the other font and rendering functions are. The real fix for this mess would be to not have ImageRender::Render() have so much duplicate code from KX_KetsjiEngine::Render(), but that's a code cleanup problem for another day.
* Removing KX_Scene::RemoveAnimatedObject() since KX_Scene::NewRemoveObject() is already handling this.
* Don't create a new BL_ActionManager when replicating an object. Just set m_actionManager to NULL and let KX_GameObject::GetActionManager() allocate a new BL_ActionManager when one is needed.
* Use KX_GameObject::GetScene() instead of KX_GetActiveScene() in KX_GameObject::GetActionManager() to make sure we're using the object's scene instead of one where Python might currently be running from. This could avoid potential issues with playing actions for objects in other scenes.
- spelling - turns out we had tessellation spelt wrong all over.
- use \directive for doxy (not @directive)
- remove BLI_sparsemap.h - was from bmesh merge IIRC but entire file commented and not used.
Compilation error was mostly caused by trying to use namespace std before it was
actually defined (e.g. before any include of stl header).
It's not actually good idea to use namespaces in header files -- it's really easy to
run into namespace conflicts and so. Resolved by not using "using namespace" in header
files and using full quality accessing to stl collections (e.g. std::vector).
Problem/Bug:
------------
There were no way to have proper unicode characters (e.g. Japanese) in Blender Game Engine. Now we can :)
You can see a sample here: http://blog.mikepan.com/multi-language-support-in-blender/
Functionality Explanation:
--------------------------
This patch converts the Blender Font Objects to a new BGE type: KX_FontObject
This object inherits KX_GameObject.cpp and has the following properties:
- text (the text of the object)
- size (taken from the Blender object, usually is 1.0)
- resolution (1.0 by default, maybe not really needed, but at least for debugging/the time being it's nice to have)
The way we deal with linked objects is different than Blender. In Blender the text and size are a property of the Text databock. Therefore linked objects necessarily share the same text (and size, although the size of the object datablock affects that too). In BGE they are stored and accessed per object. Without that it would be problematic to have addObject adding texts that don't share the same data.
Known problems/limitations/ToDo:
--------------------------------
1) support for packed font and the <builtin>
2) figure why some fonts are displayed in a different size in 3DView/BGE (BLF)
3) investigate some glitches I see some times
4) support for multiline
5) support for more Blender Font Object options (text aligment, text boxes, ...)
[1] Diego (bdiego) evantually will help on that. For the time being we are using the "default" (ui) font to replace the <builtin>.
[2] but not all of them. I need to cross check who is calculating the size/dpi in/correctly - Blender or BLF. (e.g. fonts that work well - MS Gothic)
[3] I think this may be related to the resolution we are drawing the font
[4] It can't/will not be handled inside BFL. So the way I see it is to implement a mini text library/api that works as a middlelayer between the drawing step and BLF.
So instead of:
BLF_draw(fontid, (char *)text, strlen(text));
We would do:
MAGIC_ROUTINE_IM_NOT_BLF_draw(fontir, (char *)text, styleflag, width, height);
[5] don't hold your breath ... but if someone wants to have fun in the holidays the (4) and (5) are part of the same problem.
Code Explanation:
-----------------
The patch should be simple to read. They are three may parts:
1) BL_BlenderDataConversion.cpp:: converts the OB_FONT object into a KX_FontObject.cpp and store it in the KX_Scene->m_fonts
2) KetsjiEngine.cpp::RenderFonts:: loop through the texts and call their internal drawing routine.
3) KX_FontObject.cpp::
a) constructor: load the font of the object, and store other values.
b) DrawText: calculate the aspect for the given size (sounds hacky but this is how blf works) and call the render routine in RenderTools
4) KX_BlenderGL.cpp (called from rendertools) ::BL_print_game_line:: Draws the text. Using the BLF API
*) In order to handle visibility of the object added with AddObject I'm adding to the m_scene.m_fonts list only the Fonts in a visible layer - unlike Cameras and Lamps where all the objects are added.

Thanks Benoit for the review and adjustment suggestions.
Thanks Diego for the BFL expertise, patches and support (Latin community ftw)
Thanks my boss for letting me do part of this patch during work time. Good thing we are starting a project in a partnership with a Japanese Foundation and eventual will need unicode in BGE :) for more details on that - www.nereusprogram.org - let's call it the main sponsor of this "bug feature" ;)
Tested with GameLogic.mouse.position and mouse over sensor.
It should be working with other mouse sensor as well. If not, please help to test and report a bug.
(couldn't test blenderplayer but it should be working there as well).
(Benoit, this is the same patch that I sent you. I hope it's OOP enough. Looking forward to hear from you on that)
I believe that this was the last "mouse" related bug we had reported. MouseLoook scripts should be working 100% in Blender/BGE 2.50 now \o/
Originally we had 2DFilters (m_filtermanager) stored in RenderTools. That way filters were stored globally and were being called once per each scene. This was producing two big problems: (1) performance and (2) flexibility of use.
(1) Performance - To run the filters 2X == 2X slower
(2) flexibility of use - Very often we want the filter in the scene but not in the UI for example.
For those reasons I believe that 2DFilters with multiple scenes was very useless or unpredictable. I hope they work fine now.
To make it work as before (2.4) you can simply recreate the 2dfilter actuators across the scenes.
* * * * *
Imagine that we have:
(a) Main Scene
(b) Overlay Scene
in Main Scene the Z Buffer and RGB will be from the main scene.
in Overlay Scene the Z Buffer will be from the Overlay Scene and the RBG buffer is from both [(a + 2D Filter) + b].
So in pseudo code if we have a,b,c,d,e scenes we have: (2DFilterE(2DFilterD(2DFilterC(2DFilterB(2DFilterA(a) + b) + c) + d) + e)
patch from Mitchell Stokes (moguri)
simple use case
scene.post_draw = [pyOpenGLFunc]
this only needs to be set once, then the funcion runs each redraw.
note, this patch also changes how python scripts run (not modules): Dont clear the namespace after running a script, since functions still use the namespace, BGE API is now better when dealing with stale data.
made some changes to this patch.
- assigning a list didnt decrement the existing list.
- initialize as NULL rather then a blank list
- dont use string comparisons for the callbacks, pass the python list to use instead.
- dont check the list items are callable. python will display an error if they are not.
- use python list macros that dont do any type checking sine blender does this when assigning the list
---- from tracker, edited since an updated patch changes some things.
Here is a patch to be able to draw to the screen with BGE Python. This will be very handy for GUI stuff. This patch
works by having the user register a callback in the scene. Two options are available KX_Scene.pre_draw
and KX_Scene.post_draw. The difference between these is when Python draws to the screen (before or after the BGE).
Each can take a list of functions. Here is an example that draws a blue semi-transparent
