Discussion Space: 1999 updates ?

Polaris · Jul 1, 2011

Gattis, this is the most immersive Moonbase Alpha experience I've seen yet! Keep up the good work!

Ark · Jul 3, 2011

Are you planning on chopping the new stuff up into separate buildings like before? My favorite part of the S:1999 addons is using the buildings to construct my own bases.

gattispilot · Jul 5, 2011

not really. I guess I could.

Ran into an issue not sure if fixable

Here you can see the tube black with white squares. this is a view from the vessel

But this is from the ummu now you don't see it

but not here ummu view

here you see the tube

Perhaps this is a normals / mesh side issue ?
Each polygon can be single sided (only visible from one direction) or double sided (visible from both).

gattispilot · Jul 5, 2011

No I think it is the order of how orbiter see the meshes. It see the the moonbase first and then the add on.

Reworking the travel tube cars. From the center hub aka Main Mission, you will be able to go from the 5 pads, 2 cone stations, computer room, Hydroponics area, dining hall.
By using attachment, The Ummu moves to the door opens the door moves to the car and then selects where to go. Then by animation and attachment the ummu and car move thru the tube to another area.

gattispilot · Aug 1, 2011

Thanks. I have run into a snag. So I help someone cane help.

The tcar animation and the Ummu moves basically by moving the animation and attachment point. But I want to move another animation sequence with the loop of moving the car.
The another animation sequence moves a bar by the windows to show movement

Code:

if(TCARSTA1_status==DOOR_UP && TCARSTA2_status==DOOR_UP)
	{
		double da = simdt * (LIFT_SPEED/4);
		PlayVesselWave3(LP15PSoundID,doorsound2);
		if (TCAR1_status == DOOR_RAISING) 
		{
			if (TCAR1_proc > 0.0)
			{
				//BUGA = InsertMesh ("LP3RINGDOOR_C",BUGA,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGA, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				//BUGB = InsertMesh ("LP3DOOR_C",BUGB,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGB, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				TCAR1_proc = max (0.0, TCAR1_proc-da);
				// -23.03538,0,-22.31242
				RevertTCARLIGHT();
				SetAttachmentParams(TCAR1,_V(  360.4942+(-155.7151*TCAR1_proc),1.8,357.065+(95.7093*TCAR1_proc)), _V(0,1,0), _V(-0.851929436034248,0,0.523656601236314));
		
			}

			else
			{
				TCAR1_status = DOOR_UP;
				//BUGA = InsertMesh ("LP3RINGDOOR_A",BUGA,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGA, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				//BUGB = InsertMesh ("LP3DOOR",BUGB,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGB, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				DetachChild(TCAR1,0);
				
				RevertTCARSTA1();
				oldsimt=simt;
			}
		} 
		else 
		{

			if (TCAR1_proc < 1.0)
			{
				//BUGA = InsertMesh ("LP3RINGDOOR_C",BUGA,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGA, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				//BUGB = InsertMesh ("LP3DOOR_C",BUGB,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGB, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				TCAR1_proc = min (1.0, TCAR1_proc+da);
				
				SetAttachmentParams(TCAR1,_V(  360.4942+(-155.7151*TCAR1_proc),1.8,357.065+(95.7093*TCAR1_proc)), _V(0,1,0), _V(-0.851929436034248,0,0.523656601236314));
			//if (TCAR1_proc < 1.0){
			//RevertTCARLIGHT();
		//}
			
			}


//29.86741,0.0,47.13026
			else
			{
				TCAR1_status = DOOR_DOWN;
				//BUGA = InsertMesh ("LP3RINGDOOR_A",BUGA,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGA, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				//BUGB = InsertMesh ("LP3DOOR",BUGB,0);
				//SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUGB, MESHVIS_ALWAYS);
				DetachChild(TCAR1,0);
				
				RevertTCARSTA2();
				oldsimt=simt;
			}
		
		

		

			
		}
		SetAnimation (anim_TCAR1, TCAR1_proc);
		RevertTCARLIGHT();



	}
}

Basically the station doors are shut and the car and attachment moves through TCAR1_proc. But the Tcarlight needs to move while the car is moving though.

Code:

if ((TCAR1_proc>0.0)||(TCAR1_proc < 1.0)){
if (TCARLIGHT_status >= DOOR_RAISING) 
{
		double da = simdt * (LIFT_SPEED*2.8);
		
		if (TCARLIGHT_status == DOOR_RAISING) {
			if (TCARLIGHT_proc > 0.0) TCARLIGHT_proc = max (0.0, TCARLIGHT_proc-da);
			else                TCARLIGHT_status = DOOR_UP;
		} else {

			if (TCARLIGHT_proc < 1.0) TCARLIGHT_proc = min (1.0, TCARLIGHT_proc+da);
			else                TCARLIGHT_status = DOOR_DOWN;
		}
SetAnimation (anim_TCARLIGHT1, TCARLIGHT_proc);
SetAnimation (anim_TCARLIGHT2, TCARLIGHT_proc);
}
}

this moves the light bar forward to the another edge of the window. So it moves it from the back of the window to the front of the window.

Hope someone can help.

Ummu, Please remove EVA suit before riding Travel car.

gattispilot · Aug 31, 2011

This is slowly coming. The tcars route are a vessels. You then place them inside the moonbase.

So what I am having to do is take the building and cut the walls so the the car can run move without going thru walls.

I have redone the Tcars door station so I need to redo the walls. Trying to get the blocks aligned is what is taking the time.

Once I get the building cut then I will put them back in the base and recode. A video of the tcar would be great but I don't have that capacity.

gattispilot · Sep 7, 2011

OK now help/suggestions. On the moonbase a car traveled from the MainMission to Landing Pad1 and Dining Hall.

So I have 3 cars and 3 separate animations. But is it possible to do it with 1 animation that is broken into 2 parts.

So the car would travel maybe .7 and then from .7 to .75 turns and .7 to 1.0 goes to the station selected?

like this:
http://www.eagletransporter.com/forum/showpost.php?p=250626&postcount=103

gattispilot · Sep 8, 2011

Back to the 3 cars and attachments. I could get the animation to work but not the attachment. The attachment lagged behind.

Hopefully someone can tell me why the wav is not playing:

Code:

RequestLoadVesselWave3(CNGA3SoundID,DESIGNATION,"Sound\\1999\\DESIGNATION.wav",INTERNAL_ONLY);
RequestLoadVesselWave3(CNGA3SoundID,DESIGNATIONACCEPTED,"Sound\\1999\\DESIGNATIONACCEPTED.wav",INTERNAL_ONLY);

Code:

if(ActionAreaReturnCode==5)// at COMPUTER
		{
			OBJHANDLE hV=oapiGetFocusObject();
			VESSEL *v=oapiGetFocusInterface();
			UMMU1=v->GetAttachmentHandle(true,1);
			if(GetAttachmentStatus(UMMU1))
			{
				
				if(!_strnicmp(dest,"1",1))
				{
PlayVesselWave3(CNGA3SoundID,DESIGNATIONACCEPTED);
					RevertTCAR1();
					strcpy(dest,"");
				}
			}
			else
			{
				if(!_strnicmp(dest,"",1))
				{
					PlayVesselWave3(CNGA3SoundID,DESIGNATION);
					oapiOpenInputBox("Your destination (1, or 2)?  1-NGA3 2-Nowhere",ChoiceBox,0,2,(void*)this);
					
				}

no errros and nothing in the sound log. the wavs are in the right directory. When the ummu goes to the action area and presses enter then I want it to play the wav before the input box. But I get no sounds at all.

orb · Sep 19, 2011

Did you try other options for RequestLoadVesselWave3 than INTERNAL_ONLY?

Does the code playing those sounds (i.e. call to PlayVesselWave3) get hit in debugger?

gattispilot · Sep 19, 2011

Thanks. I tried this:

Code:

RequestLoadVesselWave3(CNGA3SoundID,DESIGNATION,"Sound\\1999\\DESIGNATION.wav",BOTHVIEW_FADED_FAR);

and no sound. The input box shows up though. I just get wind sounds. I tried a good wav and still no sound.

gattispilot · Sep 20, 2011

ok no wav is playing except here:

status of car routes. Still haven't fixed the sound issue.

gattispilot · Sep 26, 2011

I have a new base. but still working on the sound issue.

It makes me ask if you can play a wav in the action area?
I added this and when I press G i hear the sound. So the wav is good.

Code:

if(key==OAPI_KEY_G)
{
    		PlayVesselWave3(LP4TUBEPSoundID,doorsound2);

}

but in the action area:

Code:

if(ActionAreaReturnCode==0 )//at ring 
		{
			// do something cool here, doors animation, system activation or repairing etc. Etc.
			PlayVesselWave3(LP4TUBEPSoundID,doorsound2);
			if (TCAR1_status==DOOR_UP && TCARSTA1_status==DOOR_UP)
			{
				RevertTCARSTA1();
				oldsimt=simt;
			}
			else if(TCAR1_status==DOOR_UP && TCARSTA1_status==DOOR_DOWN )
			{
				RevertTCARSTA1();
				oldsimt=0;
			}
			else if(TCAR1_status==DOOR_DOWN && TCARSTA1_status==DOOR_UP )
			{
				RevertTCAR1();
			}
			
		}

if(ActionAreaReturnCode==1)// at ring
		{
			OBJHANDLE hV=oapiGetFocusObject();
			VESSEL *v=oapiGetFocusInterface();
			UMMU1=v->GetAttachmentHandle(true,1);
			if(GetAttachmentStatus(UMMU1))
			{
				if(!_strnicmp(dest,"1",1))
				{
					RevertTCAR1();
					strcpy(dest,"");
				}
				
			}
			else
			{
				if(!_strnicmp(dest,"",1))
				{
					oapiOpenInputBox("Your destination (1,2)? 1-LP3, 2-Nowhere",ChoiceBox,0,2,(void*)this);
					
				} 
				else 
				{
					if(!_strnicmp(dest,"1",1))// || !_strnicmp(dest,"2",1))
					{
						AttachUmmu1();//don't reset dest now!!!
					}
					
					if(!_strnicmp(dest,"2",1))
					{
						//do nothing then we have to reset dest.
						strcpy(dest,"");
					}
				}
			}
			
		}

I get no sound when the ummu is in the area. The input box comes up but no sound.

gattispilot · Sep 27, 2011

A trip to Pad2

According to Dan you can play a wav in the action area. He suggested to check the wav format. to make sure it was plain PCM. Not sure how to check this.

dougkeenan · Sep 27, 2011

One quick way might be to rename/copy some "known good" audio file as your desired target. Something already in the Orbiter sound directory you know works.

gattispilot · Sep 27, 2011

I thought about that. I wonder why it will play though as set off by a key and not the Ummu?

UPDATE:

I moved the action_doorClose.wav into my correct directory.

Code:

RequestLoadVesselWave3(JohnSoundID,START,"Sound\\1999\\action_doorClose.wav",BOTHVIEW_FADED_FAR);

Code:

if(ActionAreaReturnCode==4 )//at COMPUTER
		{
			// do something cool here, doors animation, system activation or repairing etc. Etc.
			//PlayVesselWave3(JohnSoundID,doorsound2);
			PlayVesselWave3(JohnSoundID,START); 

			if (TCAR1_status==DOOR_UP && TCARSTA2_status==DOOR_UP)//TCAR1 PRESENT AND DOOR OPEN
			{
				RevertTCARSTA2();
				oldsimt=simt;
			}
			else if(TCARSTA2_status==DOOR_DOWN && TCAR1_status==DOOR_DOWN)//TCAR2 PRESENT AND DOOR OPEN AND TCAR1 PRESENT
			{
				RevertTCARSTA2();
				oldsimt=0;
			}
			if(TCARSTA2_status==DOOR_UP && TCAR1_status==DOOR_DOWN)//TCAR2 PRESENT AND  TCAR1  NOT PRESENT SO MOVE TCAR1
			{
				RevertTCAR1();
			}
			
		}

All I hear is the ambient sound. The doors open but no sound. nothing fro the sound log either.
