Compile using premake+visual studio, and compile App_SharedMemoryPhysics_VR
Compile pybullet using cmake using cmake -DBUILD_PYBULLET=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
Create a symbolic link from c:\python\dlls\pybullet.pyd to C:\develop\bullet3\cmp\lib\Release\pybullet.dll
App_SharedMemoryPhysics_VR
Run Python. Here are some Python lines to get going:
import pybullet as p
p.connect(p.SHARED_MEMORY)
p.loadURDF("cube.urdf")
p.setGravity(0,0,-10)
p.setRealTimeSimulation(1)
Allow real-time simulation in physics server, add pybullet command setRealTimeSimulation to control it
Mesh decimation (reduce number of triangles/vertices) using a Blender modifier for Kuka IIWA and Husky
Disabled the 'glFlush' commands in GLInstancingRenderer.
Add VR controller methods to examples\CommonInterfaces\CommonExampleInterface.h
Use the ANSI version in Windows file/string operations instead of unicode, hope this doesn't break builds.
add test for VR HUD/sub-titles
fix issue in previous commit, partial string use %.8s not %8.s
use long long int in b3Clock
fix warning/error in pointer alignment in serialization
Fix pybullet Windows compilation.
(thanks to bkeys/https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3/pull/687)
Add option to have Z as up-axis for VR examples.
Add OpenVR LICENSE + README file
Don't crash VR app when no HMD is detected, just exit.
For now, don't request debug lines in client, it slows down physics server in VR mode too much.
workaround for reversed separating normal in gjk/epa when using very small shapes, detect case and revert normal.
use smaller world size (10 units versus 100) for higher resolution shadow map
use a hard-coded rolling friction of 0.2 for objects in physics server (will make this configurable)
fix loading of command log files, when platform features are different (64bit/32bit)
(force/torque sensor needs new API)
in a nutshell, users of shared memory physics API should not
directly poke into shared memory, not fill 'SharedMemorCommand'
nor read SharedMemoryStatus directly. The C-API declares 'handles' for those,
to avoid it from happening.
only allow server to create and initialize shared memory,
client will report failure
intercept signals to cleanup shared memory in standalone app, thanks to
Roland Philippsen.
