Re: [Flightgear-devel] 737 project
You can already scroll 2D panels (like the 737's) using the shift+f5/f6/f7/f8 combinations. Took me months to discover this little secret, which makes the 737 much nicer, since the autopilot engage and disengage buttons are offscreen by default... Excellent, thanks! I'll try the 737 again when I get home -- haven't been able to use the A/P so far because the buttons did nothing when clicked... The Concorde has a 3D cockpit, so you can just turn your head to see everything. Great, I'll try that too. What do you zoom with when the pointer is in view mode? x/X? Maybe it's already like this, but would the mouse wheel not be a perfect control for zooming when the pointer is in view mode? Andras --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

The original code was written for/by John Wojnaroski so you might be

addition.
OK, then I'll continue to work on it (as I've done since yesterday).
I'll make it so that the preferences file decides how many voices there
are. For each /sim/sound/voice[*]/{text,volume,pitch,speed} there will
a channel be opened to festival and maintained by the subsystem.
We could then add aliases for copilot, instructor, etc. Would be nice
if the b29 copilot reported gear down etc., or the bo105 copilot
gave some navigation hints (I think we are too far already. :-)
BTW: the whole thing won't depend on festival. One can easily write
a few lines of perl to simulate a festival server and use the text
for different purposes. For example, to let a human or a trained
monkey read it. And all others can map the text to the screen.log.
I'll start to commit once I got permission. (The old ATC voice
thing will lose the /sim/sound/voice property first, which is used
as an enabled flag, and finally die.)
I'm working at getting Festival to compile under Cygwin. They claim that it
does, and, while it's very long-winded, it's looking good so far ...

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Re: [PATCH][RFC] speech synthesis with festival
Yes, this is going to be a crazy week. But quickly then; The original code I sent on to Dave Luft had a socket interface in the AI module for the ATIS and AI controller. Somewhere on a disc that code and a howto I started on setting up the festival server/client interface to FG exists. There was also a speech recognition program using SphinxII under development by CMU, and a modest set of ATC phrases and words that formed the corpus. You could talk and an AI controller would respond, but it had a extremely limit *brain*. All it could do was respond and okay your request. The festival produced speech is very mechanicasl, but can be *humanized* with a markup language called SABLE. There is also a DB of voices available and the capability to create additional voices --- not a trivial task to be undertaken by the faint-hearted ;-) The ATC chatter added by Curtis creates an amazingly real aural environment, even if a bit out of context. No question that voice would be a good addition. Regards John W. Erik Hofman wrote: Melchior FRANZ wrote: It just doesn't look as if there's much interest.

Hi Curt, Looks like the best (only) opportune time to meet with Tony is Friday either at the scale site or back here. Setup should not take more than two hours, assuming all goes well. Biggest unknowns are power and internet connections. As a paying exhibitor we can get the power, one more machine and an extra laptop added since last year, but thinking we'll still be under 1KW. The dhcp and wifi questions will be worked in real-time on Friday. Looks like synthetic voice is back, he he Have a safe trip. See you Friday.

[Flightgear-devel] Displaying fullscreen PFD2
So help me out guys please. If i want to run FG on one pc with dual head card for scenery , and use the other running FG and networked to the 1st. If i modify my 737 on the 2nd pc to only display a fullscreen PFD2 will this take its readings from the master pc doing the scenery etc ? Also to blow up the PFD2 to full screen 1024 * 768 how would this apply in the X1 X2 and Y1 Y2 settings as i dont quite understand them yet? I know i will have to draw my own textures to the required size its just the placing bit that gets me. I'll paste a bit of the PFD2 code in so you can see what i mean. layer namebackground/name texture pathAircraft/737-test/Instruments/Textures/ah-face2.rgb/path x10.0/x1 y10.0/y1 x21.0/x2 y21.0/y2 /texture w250/w h250/h transformations transformation typex-shift/type offset0/offset /transformation transformation typey-shift/type offset0/offset /transformation /transformations /layer Any help will be much appreciated.

alexis bory wrote: Did anybody asked about a way to keep the hud's marks inside the hud screen ? If you are talking about the HUDs controlled by the 'h' key, I don't know the answer but I know it can be done so long as you want to constrain them to a rectangle. If you are talking about the kind of HUDs made from 3D objects, then read on. I was thinking about this just last night. I came up with a solution based on layering of transparent images. Rendering a transparent poly that is a) between some object and the viewpoint and b) listed before that object in the scenegraph will cause that object to become invisible wherever it is obscured by the transparent object. This is the genesis of many layering problems for 3D modelers. My idea is to create such an object as a mask that goes around the edge of the HUD. You put it almost last in the scenegraph so it doesn't cause this problem with bits of the cockpit, but you put the objects with the HUD markings after it in the scenegraph, and located physically out at the focal point of the projector. This point will probably be somewhere just out past the windscreen. When your head is in the right spot, you will see the markings through the hole that is cut in the middle of the screen, but if the markings or your viewpoint moves too far off to the side the markings get obscured by the mask. I'm planning on trying this method with the 3D model for Lee E's CanberraBI8. Josh --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

I've got an idea. What if we would have the background of a regular 2D / 3D instrument transparent or translucent, and arrange the layout like HUD, and laid over on the screen ? I bet we can make the attitude / airspeed / alt / vsi gauges to only display the numbers without the ticks and the needles, and layout them like HUD with thier transparent background.
