Fri:

A bit more IT and printer work at the office.


Jun 29 - Jul 03

Mon:

Figured out why particle collisions sometimes gave weird results when sliding down a surface. There might be multiple times where the particle collides with the same mesh during a timestep. The current methods we use in blender doesn't necessarily return the absolute first or shortest collision time.

This is usually not noticeable except for a few corner cases.

Tue:

Spent the day experimenting if the limitation I discovered yesterday could be easily be remedied. However, most of the solutions that worked was using brute force logic, so it would be a lot slower even in scenarios when we don't really need to have this check in place for good collisions.

I therefore opted to see if I can instead add a sanity check at the end of the collision detection and work around it this way.

Wed:

Had a bunch of meetings at the office and also did some more IT support work.

Thu:

More work on particle collisions and did preparations with settings and tweak to my text editor for tomorrows code quality day.

Wed:

Went back to the office. Took some time to set things up there. Worked a bit more on cleaning up the particle collision code.

Thu:

Did some more investigation into some weirdness of collisions. Seems like the collision query sometimes fails to get the actual closest point when it is close to an edge/vertex. Will have to investigate this more next week.

Fri:

Spent the whole day sorting out computer and printer issues at the office.

Jun 15 - Jun 19

Mon:

Sick day

Wed:

Reviewed a cloth related patch from Alexander: https://developer.blender.org/D8017 Discussed and iterated a bit more on sculpt cloth brush things with Pablo Dobarro Worked a bit more of particle collision physics.

Thu:

Worked on particle collisions again. I did some fixes and clean up. Now it should be ready for general testing I think. Tomorrow I will work on setting up the UI side of things.

Fri:

Made the particle collisions take the settings from the relevant node and colliders. Implemented friction:

Though this lead to some other issues cropping up so I will have to look at that next week.

Jun 8 - Jun 12

Mon:

Spent today thinking about how to rework some of the collision response code to be able to handle "dragging" of particles. I managed to come up with a solution that seems to work ok:

However it did introduce some breakage. So I need to look over things.

Looked into a surface deform regression and filed a report here: https://developer.blender.org/T77632

Tue:

Spent today working more on particles. Now the dragging seems to work quite good. This is with dampening set to 1, so the particles velocity is set to zero when they collide. Before this would lead to tunneling happening.

Wed:

Worked a bit more on particle physics.

Spent a lot of time discussing how we want the LANPR workflow to work with YiMing and the GP team.

Thu:

More LANPR discussions. Got back to reviewing https://developer.blender.org/D6442

Did some tech support work.

Jun 1 - Jun 5

Mon: Dutch holiday

Tue:

Updated the failing bmesh_bevel test. It failed because D7772 made UV calculation more precise leading to slightly different UV coordinates than before.

Wrote a quick TODO task for particle node collisions: https://developer.blender.org/T77266

Worked more on particle collisions.

Wed:

Discovered an annoying particle teleportation bug while I looked into a tunneling issue and I am looking into the cause of it.

Thu:

Hopefully fixed the popping and tunneling. The popping issues was actually because of a bug in a function from the older particle system.

Fri:

Further looked into the "Write a script to automatically rename DNA fields" code quality task. I have proof of concept script that renames the DNA fields. But it is basically just a glorified client for clangd using the Language Server Protocol (LSP). So after some discussion about it in #blender-coders, we kinda (?) decided to just put this on ice for the time being.

Next Week: More particle physics!

May 25 - May 29

Apr 20 - Apr 24

Mon:

Wasn't that much of a productive day, spent most of the time chatting about different topics (LANPR, UI Team, and helping Mike with technical issues). I have yet to manage to figure out what the exact problem is with my particle collision code.

Tue:

Helped Hjalti solve some driver issues that made his blender crash (newer mesa versions are not affected). Got some feedback from the audaspace dev about my work with A/V sync. Took some time to write down some thoughts on how to proceed. Spent most of my day chatting with other people about various topics.

Wed:

Finally some progress with the moving collider response! Now the particles do not tunnel through the collider anymore (was because of a silly math mistake):

However, as you can see the velocity that the particles get from the surface deflection and collision is to high still.

Thu:

Talked a bit more with the Audaspace dev on how to best implement the interpolated time reporting mechanism. Fixed an issue with push/relax pose to breakdown that I missed last time I worked on it: https://developer.blender.org/rB35ecfefaec231772d3cd366d21240636b9940be1 Bisected and talked to Sergey about #73686

Mon: Day off

Tue: Sick

Wed: Still somewhat sick. Fixed #75649 and worked further on A/V sync.

Thu: Now I have something to show with A/V sync! This is of course a example that is exaggerated to show case the issue. Old A/V sync with big audio buffer:

New A/V sync with big audio buffer:

Fri:

Created pull requests for the changes I'ven done on the audaspace github page. I also worked a bit more on the syncing logic and it is now buttery smooth. I can no longer tell the difference between A/V sync and No Sync.

Started looking into: https://developer.blender.org/T75810

Thoughts about this week:

Because I was sick and didn't feel well at the start of this week, Dalai and I decided that I should probably wrap up my A/V sync work this week. So I did that instead of working on the physics system.

Next week:

Will allocate 3 days for particle collisions and 2 days for bug tracker work.

Apr 06 - Apr 10

Mon: Fixed up and commited D7248. Had some additional discussion about A/V sync issues with Sybren.

Now collision detection of moving objects seems to work nicely:

Broken particle collision responses with moving objects.

However there are still major issues with the collision response:

Broken particle collision responses with moving objects.

But in certain cases it doesn't fail spectacularly at least:

A bit better response, but not great.
