functions (note to Norman: I looked at the web page you listed and that
looks like a good idea, but I don't have time right now to go through and
debug an entirely new routine. What we have works well enough for now I hope!)
- Ambient is based off the lookup table only.
- Diffuse is based off of the lookup table, but multiplied by a combination
of sun/fog colors.
The result is a bit more ambient light at dusk and night since the world is
never 100% dark. And we still get nice sunset/sunrise colored illumination
of surfaces that are directly illuminated by the sun.
immediate end to glut, only that I'm going through and cleaning up (and
taking inventory of the actual glut dependencies in case I want to investigate
SDL.)
- Removed some old cruft.
- Removed some support for older versions of automake which technically was
correct, but caused the newer automakes to squawk warnings during an
initial sanity check (which isn't done very intelligently.)
NOTE: this fix is technically not correct for older version of automake.
These older version use the variable "INCLUDES" internally and could have
them already set to an important value. That is why we were appending
our values to them. However, newer versions of automake don't set this
value themselves so it is an error to append to a non-existant variable.
We seem to "get away" with overwriting the value on older versions of
automake, but if you have problems, consider upgrading to at least
automake-1.5.
- changed FGSubsystem::update(int) to
FGSubsystem::update(delta_time_sec); the argument is now delta time
in seconds rather than milliseconds
- added FGSubsystem::suspend(), FGSubsystem::suspend(bool),
FGSubsystem::resume(), and FGSubsystem::is_suspended(), all with
default implementations; is_suspended takes account of the master
freeze as well as the subsystem's individual suspended state
- the FDMs now use the delta time argument the same as the rest of
FlightGear; formerly, main.cxx made a special case and passed a
multiloop argument
- FDMs now calculate multiloop internally instead of relying on
main.cxx
There are probably some problems -- I've done basic testing with the
major FDMs and subsystems, but we'll probably need a few weeks to
sniff out bugs.
- Added initial_value argument, in milliseconds, that specifies when
event is first run. The default value of -1 triggers the event
immediately as per the existing behaviour. A repeat_value greater than
zero runs the event no less than every 'repeat_value' milliseconds
afterwards. A repeat_value of zero deletes the event.
- Modified run queue behaviour such that only one event per frame is
run.
Here are the Boost-less FGEventMgr updates I promised.
Removed Boost dependencies from FGEventMgr.
Removed Boost configure check.
fgMethodCallback now handles const member functions.
I've successfully tested these changes with gcc and msvc.
radiostack.cxx, fg_init.cxx and main.cxx. If these changes are accepted
then you can remove Time/event.[ch]xx and Include/fg_callback.hxx from
the repository.
Think my brain is getting clogged with matrices :-). Well I've got the funky
orientation offset bug out of the model code. In the process the model.cxx
got optimized a bit. At some point we'll need to liberate model.cxx from the
viewer class, but it is no longer hard coded to access the "pilot view" to
get it's data. Instead it uses whatever the "current" view happens to be. I
may try and do that final bit of having models rotate independant of the view
tomorrow night, or start right in on the viewmgr and get a tower view up and
running. You guys have any preference? My brother's family is coming to
visit for a few days so what I don't get done tomorrow night probably won't
get done until after the weekend.
