was calling screenmain() before executing the python script which meant it was never executed (therefore no crash :) )
Moved screenmain() back to the the end of main() and added a TESTBASELIB_BGMODE which checks for G.vd and uses the scene layer if its not there. Of course python should not be running stuff that uses G.vd :/
Also made python scripts stay attached to screens when LOAD UI is disabled. This means you can load a new blend file and the python console can stay open, has been tested for a while in the apricot branch.
For *nix sustems, recent physics pointcache refactor uses stdio.h's remove() rather then system("rm -f ...") for removing files, since it was a lot slower for removing pointcache.
Ton used the system command because there was some problem using remove() ~6years back, but he cant remember why, (maybe its not a problem now)
Simple error, remove wasn't returning a value, but keep an eye out for problems removing files, and if anyone can reproduce the "Unable to make version backup" problem when saving, we should look into it.
Also added a note about using # in the output path for blenders command line help text.
This makes it so the following are equal.
blender -w -p 0 0 500 500
blender -p 0 0 500 500 -w
Just move initalization for full screen to before the loop starts.
so it doesn't matter where a -p shows up to override fullscreen.

Also made rem_from_group return if it removed the object which save some looping.
Added a node in the blender help message that background mode dosnt load the .B.blend file as a bug was reported recently because of this.
also removed FTYPE as an optional format (TODO - remove FTYPE from render output panel since you cant use FTYPE anymore and its not used internally, hint hint)
Correct playback frames per second when "Play" is pressed. (Play spawns a new instance of blender, it could pass an argument that sets the frames per second)
(double credit :)
- treat file passed as parameter the same as if loaded from UI if Blender isn't running in background mode.
- only set relative base as valid if file loaded successfully.
Old log Message:
-----------
bug fix, when opening blender with a file (by double clicking or from the
command line) - the initial undo state would be set to the default scene.
So holding Ctrl+Z would go back to the default .B.blend rather then the
file that the user opened.
Tree From Curve,
- report error when nurbs or poly curves are used.
- don't throw errors when >4 branch's per segment are used. also try deal with this better. though no nice solution exists.
- default speed is 10x slower then before.
Add a new command line switch "--" for passing arguments to scripts.
Any arguments after -- are not processed and passed unchanged via
the usual argv mechanism.
Custom arguments can be accessed from a bpy script in python's
sys.argv. Example:
import sys
# slice argv after '--'
i = sys.argv.index('--')
my_args = sys.argv[i+1:]
When setting the filename for export foo_#_bar would not be renamed to foo_00001_bar, It only worked when # what the last char of the name.
removed the text from --help that says this is supported.
The good news; previously written 64 bits are still valid! All fixes
appeared to be possible in code, no versioning patches needed. :)
That also removes the I AM STUPID 64 bits ban from the code.
The bad news:
I couldn't get a 64 bits Blender running here (ghost-mac issues... it
has to be recoded using Quartz to be able to run 64 bits). So what I
have tested was:
32 bits binary:
- Appending/linking data from 64 bits file.
- Reading 64 bits chained library-linked files (file -> file -> etc)
- Linking 32 bits files with 64 bits files
This has to be tested for 64 bits too. Will drop in IRC now to help.
Now all windows open in a border as opposed to fullscreen. blender -W restores
old functionality, blender -w is now default. This lets each platform's window
manager deal with it's own issues.
As per issue 6391 in the patch tracker.
This will allow python or plugin defined nodes to work as well.
(And fixes compile issues with MSVC in yesterdays commit for nodes)
Code provided by Nathan L.
Fixes in his code:
- free_nodesystem() was called too late (after guarded alloc was closed)
- free_nodesystem() was freeing nodes that were not malloced even
- free_nodesystem was using free, not freeN :)
- the typedefs needed to be malloced yes, to allow duplicate nodes like
group but also for dynamic nodes.
commit creator.c, so if this file is compiled and the macro YESIAMSTUPID
is defined, the executable will run, with a mean warning printed to stdout.
Enable in cmake by setting YESIAMSTUPID to On, or with make by putting
"export NAN_YESIAMSTUPID=true" in user-def.mk.
-t <threads>
It overrides the settings as saved in scenes. Only works for background
rendering, to force thread amounts to match the cpus in system.
For funny jokers: amount is clipped for MAXTHREADS :)
version 1.58 assumes the usage of the BUILD_DATE macro. When this macro is not defined the extern declarations cause the linker to fail.
As a sidenote there is no 'winbuildinfo.c' file that the BUILD_DATE macro assumes is present on win32 systems....
eg
Blender -b c:\blends\test.blend -o "c:\renders\render_#.png" -x 0 -F PNG
-x 1/0 for extension enable/disable
-F for format/filetype
This is important because somebody elses Blend files can render anywhere on your PC, possibly a security risk.
And nice for renderfarms to be able to set the path without running a python script inside the blend file.
blender --help (render opts only)
Render options:
-b <file> Render <file> in background
-S <name> Set scene <name>
-f <frame> Render frame <frame> and save it
-s <frame> Set start to frame <frame> (use with -a)
-e <frame> Set end to frame (use with -a)<frame>
-o <path> Set the render path and file name.
Use // at the start of the path to
render relative to the blend file.
Use # in the filename to be replaced with the frame number
eg: blender -b foobar.blend -o //render_# -F PNG -x 1
-F <format> Set the render format, Valid options are..
TGA IRIS HAMX FTYPE JPEG MOVIE IRIZ RAWTGA
AVIRAW AVIJPEG PNG AVICODEC QUICKTIME BMP
HDR TIFF EXR MPEG FRAMESERVER CINEON DPX
Use // at the start of the path to
-x <bool> Set option to add the file extension to the end of the file.
Added details to the -v option
Eg
blender -v
Blender 2.41 Build
build date: 2006-03-20
build time: 16:16:34
build platform: linux-glibc2.3.6-i386
build type: dynamic
Also fixed bugs where nagative/realy big frames could be set- causing Blender to crash.
