This operator takes a file as an argument and builds a cubemap from it.
Valid options are to supply the output from Plasma's
Graphics.Renderer.GrabCubeMap console command. The operator will find
the other five files and generate a cubemap with the faces saved by
Plasma. Otherwise, any arbitrary image can be supplied. If the filenames
do not fit the expected format, any missing faces will be replaced by
the face specified in the file selector. This will generally result in a
cubemap with six identical faces.
This has some simple attribute nodes for example purposes. Unfortunately,
this is so far UI only. More node types need to be added, then we can
begin working on exporting.
As requested by Doobes, we now have buttons that enable Plasma Object on
everything and all Textures. These are mostly useful for the case of
updating from PyPRP, which was opt-out and totally ignored the
checked-ness of Textures.
Still lots of considerations:
- Need to make faux lightgroups to avoid baking Plasma RT lights
- Still need to bake vertex colors
- Still need to export Plasma RT lights (D'oh!)
But, this is definitely a step in the right direction!
So this is a fairly massive chunk. I tried to get our Plasma Modifiers to
match the Blender Modifier UI fairly well. In the process, I discovered
that Blender "helpfully" hides the modifier button on Empty objects. Bah.
Significant Changes:
- Hid all of the Blender Physics mess
- The Physics context is now the Plasma Object context
- Moved Plasma Object and Plasma Synchronization to the Context Formerly
Known as Physics
- Added a Plasma Modifier Panel
Here's how you create Plasma Modifiers:
- Add your PropertyGroup to properties.modifiers
- Make sure you have a pl_id naming your modifier, a category, and a label
- Implement the export() method to actually export something useful (not
goat porn, please)
- Implement your UI draw function in ui.modifiers.
- Wasn't that easy?
We are attempting to encourage the pages=layers paradigm; however, this is
not strictly enforced. This commit has lots of bits and bobs but little
actual substance. More to come when I begin work on the exporter.
