2268fa5 added the dirty-flag deferred flush but left the immediate
save in place, so new GUID registrations wrote the registry twice
(once inline, once at the next FlushGUIDRegistry). Remove the inline
save so the deferred path is the only writer.
Pure-animation FBX (no meshes, skeleton clips only) was rejected at
the cache layer: ParsedModel::Valid() required non-empty meshes, so
Model::FromParsed/LoadModel returned null and the asset never made it
into the cache. Animation assets are now first-class:
- ParsedModel::Valid() = meshes or clips non-empty; parse failures
(both empty) still rejected. Empty-mesh consumers already guarded
(rendering skips empty mesh loop, mesh collider falls back to Box)
- ParseFromDisk: fix null-deref when assimp returns a null scene
- AssetCache::Find(path) + AssetManager::GetModelByPath for panels
- Asset Browser hover card shows meshes/bones/clips for loaded models
- Inspector model line flags "animation-only" when meshes == 0
- Animation section: collapsible clip data table (name/duration/
channel count) to verify bone-name matching of attached clips
Animation-only FBX files (no mesh, clips only) could not be used:
clips are keyed by node index into the parsed model's node table, so
there was no path to get them onto a different model's skeleton.
Add AssetManager::AttachAnimationClips: parses the container with the
CPU-only path (no GPU upload -- empty meshes cannot build a Model),
remaps each clip's channels to the target model's node indices by
bone name, and appends to its clip list. Channels whose bone name is
absent are skipped and counted; clips with zero matching channels are
dropped. Same-source attach is idempotent via a new
AnimationClip::sourcePath marker; name clashes get the file stem
prefixed.
Inspector Animation block gains an attach slot (UE Details semantics)
listing model-container files plus a bullet list of attached sources;
already-attached paths are replayed idempotently when the entity is
selected, so clips survive restarts. The paths persist in the scene
(Animation.Attached); the clips themselves stay runtime state.
Limitations (documented, by design): same-skeleton retargeting only
-- bone names must match between source and target (same DCC export
or Mixamo-style per-animation downloads); cross-skeleton retargeting
is out of scope.
Engine-layer SceneSerializer (yaml-cpp submodule): entities/components
to versioned YAML, atomic clear-and-rebuild on load with per-entity
fault tolerance, missing-field defaults, unknown-component skip and
UUID dedup. Asset references are {Guid, Path} pairs resolved through
the new AssetManager GUID registry (assets/asset_registry.yaml) with
path fallback; procedural:// pseudo-paths rebuild from parameters.
Editor File menu gets Save/Load Scene modals; app re-resolves stale
entity handles via onSceneLoaded callback.
