Project Westcott RPE (Upgrade)

Notebook · Feb 17, 2012

That works nicely, i'll keep that there til I remember how it used to work!

Notebook · Feb 18, 2012

Got to the bottom of page 1 :
http://www.orbiter-forum.com/blog.php?b=574
and it compiles and links ok, dosen't show my panel of course, no surprise there.

Don't know what I've left out, but I have started to use the debugger. Set a breakpoint after the oapiLoadTexture
function, and I get this:

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/Westcott_P2.jpg

Guess its not loading my panel?
("Aardvark.dds" dosen't exist, I was using that to see if it CTD, it dosen't, another puzzle?)

EDIT : Basic error....was't using the F8 to change panels, so no change in panels...Saturday mornng, thats my excuse.
Working now.

All input appreciated

Loading non-existent textures don't cause a CTD.

Thanks Orb.
How could I tell if a texture was loaded in that function(besides it not appearing in Orbiter)?

The value of Control_Bunker:

anel2dtex would be different than 0 (NULL).

Makes sense, thanks again.

As its a Sunday, no questions today.

A small query..., this is the working panel with my modified MFDTemplate on it.
http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/?action=view&current=Westcott_1.mp4

I now have 2 (.dll) files, Control_Bunker.dll and MFDTemplate.dll
Have't put them as two projects in one solution, that would just confuse things at the moment.

With MFDTemplate, can it be renamed? If its left as that title, it will overwrite the default Orbiter install, can't do that.
If it is renamed, how do I enable it?
MFDTemplate has an entry in the Modules tab, does this enable any "derived" MFD2 class?

N.

Notebook · Jun 21, 2012

Apologies for dragging this up, but made some progress...

Renamed the Solotion/Projects and .cpp/.h files, and MyMFDTemplate now appears in the Modules Tab under the default MFD Template entry:

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/MyMFDTemplate.png

Happy that its appeared, but confused how it got there. Is there something in the MyMFDTemplate that tells Orbiter its derived from MDFTemplate?

EDIT: had a think, and guessing its nothing to do with MFD Template deriving MyMFDTemplate. Looked at a clean install of Orbiter and the "miscellaneous" entry in the Modules tab isn't there.

Was this generated when I compiled the MFD Template in SDK\Samples?
Is this what Orbiter does for all new.dll it finds in \Orbiter\Modules\Plugin?
All input appreciated.

};

It all compiles and link fine, and runs ok. Dosen't show the interior when I press F8 though?

It does switch to the VC mode, as the camera position changes.
I can't switch away from the VC once the cockpit view is changed.

In external view, zooming in shows the P2TestCell interior. I've tried fliping the normals for that mesh, dosent show either way.

All input appreciated.

Changed "return 0" to "return true" in:

Code:

int id=0;
bool P2TestCell::clbkLoadVC(int id)
{
	SetCameraOffset (_V(0,1.5,0)); 
	SetCameraDefaultDirection (_V(0,0,1)); 
	SetCameraRotationRange (RAD*120, RAD*120, RAD*70, RAD*70); 
	SetCameraShiftRange (_V(0,0,0.1), _V(-0.2,0,0), _V(0.2,0,0));
	return true;
} // End "P2TestCell::clbkLoadVC"

Now switches cockpit views, still no sign of an interior.

EDIT: switched the mesh to the inverted normals and now have a VC cockpit! Marvellous.

EDIT : for info, current external/internal view of the P3TestCell.

Plodding on with the VC.

Made the desk into a editable poly in 3dsMax, and detached a poly to be the group/mesh for the left MFD.

Never used meshc before, so guessing its finger trouble.

EDIT: just seen something now its written down! The two groups in the mesh are Interior and Desk, the poly that was detched dosen't appear? Have to sort that out.
still dosen't explain the zero mesh.c file entries though?

You have to include the file extension as well as the file name. So if your mesh is named P2TestCellInteriorInv.msh that is what you have to enter in MeshC.

Coming along with an MFD in the desk:

Its rotated 90 degrees, and a bit clipped, but its getting there!

N.

Notebook · Feb 20, 2013

Looking at these functions:

static VCMFDSPEC LEFT_MFD = {mesh_P2Internal, GRP_Interior}; // Surface on which to display MFD. [Mesh, Mesh Group]
oapiVCRegisterMFD (0, &LEFT_MFD); // Register MFD in orbiter's interface [registry # and VCMFDSPEC]. (registry numbers start at 0 and count up)

and changing the Mesh Group paramater, I get these results

with Mesh Group = GRP_PanelLH
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/Panel_LH_zpsc46ab822.jpg

with Mesh Group = GRP_Desk 1
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/Desk_zps0af9c3f5.jpg

with Mesh Group = GRP_Interior
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k207/Notebook_04/Interior_zps906570e0.jpg

These are all using the "P2TestCellInteriorInv.msh"

A couple of questions....

I'm guessing the MFD orientation follows the mesh axis, so I need to rectify this in 3DS MAX?

How do I get the MFD onto the GRP_PanelLH, do I split off the Desk group as a new mesh from P2TestCellInteriorInv.msh?

All input appreciated.

MFD orientation follows UV map of the mesh group (0,0 - top left; 1,1 - bottom right).

Notebook said:

No need to do that. You put the right group index into VCMFDSPEC (and the right mesh index, of course) when you register the MFD surface with oapiVCRegisterMFD.

If GRP_PanelLH isn't the surface for MFD, but its "background", then you should put a new square mesh group atop of it first (and set the UV map for it accordingly, with the mentioned earlier texture coordinates), which will be used for the MFD surface (you get the index of that group for VCMFDSPEC).

Notebook · Feb 20, 2013

Thanks for that Orb.

1)I haven't altered or defined the UV parameters of GRP_PanelLH, how do I check its value?

2) Do you mean making another planar surface in 3DS max above the panel on the desk, and detaching that as a group?

I thought I just had to give orbiter the correct paramaters in VCMFDSPEC and orbiter would sort it out?

Here's what I have at the moment:

1)I haven't altered or defined the UV parameters of GRP_PanelLH, how do I check its value?

When you open the .msh file with a text editor (notepad, for example), find the mesh group you're looking for (I see you use labels, so it shouldn't be hard). Below the GEOM keyword you should see lines with 8 values. The last 2 are UV map coordinates ('u' in 7th and 'v' in 8th). If there are fewer values in the line, and NONORMAL flag wasn't set, then the UV map wasn't set for the group, and it needs to be added. If NONORMAL flag is set for the group, then UV map coordinates should be in 4th and 5th value in the line.

2) Do you mean making another planar surface in 3DS max above the panel on the desk, and detaching that as a group?

Yes.

Notebook said:
I thought I just had to give orbiter the correct paramaters in VCMFDSPEC and orbiter would sort it out?

Orbiter needs to have correct data contained in the mesh file, too.

thanks again Orb, all makes sense, I'll give it a try.

Gosh this is exciting!

Played around with uv mapping in gmax(Max 5 is having a rest). Got this now:

Shure I've done this before, the memory is going...
