I was able to go as far as idEntity::Event_UpdateCameraTarget It seems to be called from the script subsystem (?) which I have no knowledge about. |
|
|
When loading the quick save idSecurityCamera::Restore is called, but idSecurityCamera::Spawn is not. Further debugging is blocked by missing stacktrace. |
 |
Where's the attached map? |

The cameras are working after the loadgame. I can tell because they emit a beep every now and then (missing sound). The problem looks like it's in the func_static displaying the view. It needs to be kick-started. |
|
|
Camera view from the func_static is now kick-started after reloading. Working on the 4 missing camera sounds. Also, the camera doesn't stop moving when it spots the player. (I don't think it's spotting me and I have to walk through it. Once it spots me, the rest of what it's supposed to do looks okay.) |
|
|
Grabbed D3 security camera sounds to make sure the sound code worked. It does. Need to replace the sounds. Fixed a math statement that was bass-ackwards. Turned spotlight on and it doesn't look right. Need to find out what it's _supposed_ to look like. |
|
|
Not in svn yet? The way Neon wants it to work is static immovable camera, no need to react on anything. |
|
|
Not done yet. I'll look at the spawnargs to see if setting them a certain way gives Neon what he wants. If not, I'll add a spawnarg that tells the camera to not move and to not react to the player. Since the sounds are related to moving and reacting, the camera would emit no sounds, either. |

Needed to kickstart the remote camera after loading a savegame. Other changes: - Added “seePlayer” spawnarg, which can be turned off so the camera doesn’t care about seeing the player - Camera wasn't seeing the player when it should. - Added “rotate” spawnarg, which can be turned off for a stationary camera - Fixed a line of timing code having to do with the sweep time - Added the “camera gui” texture from Obs’ test pk4 - Added the 4 camera sounds. Used placeholder Doom3 sounds, and will replace them ASAP. - Kill spotlight when the camera is destroyed. TODO: - When the camera is killed, it screws up the display on the screen.The screen should just go black. - Replace Doom3 sounds. - Figure out why the display screen is flipped horizontally, and correct that. - When there are multiple cameras and screens, moving away from one screen can cause that screen to start displaying an image from a different, closer, camera. - Not sure I like the spotlight attached to the camera when it's in use.

Attached camera.map, which tests the camera changes. |
|
|
Updated camera.map to include a block of text, to help with the horizontal flip problem. If you look at the two screens on the column to the player's right, both show the text flipped horizontally. It's easier to see the flip there than it is on the screen on the column straight ahead near the two scanning cameras. |
|
|
Copy of the framebuffer in the _scratch image is not flipped. If put this line in glprogs\oldStage.fs gl_FragColor.x = gl_TexCoord[0].x; Then red fills the remote camera from left to right instead of right to left as supposed to. How can we check the texture coordinates for this surface in the .map file? |
|
|
Multiple cameras in single frame. Try this modifier in the texture stage params: map cameraX where X is a unique number |
|
|
- checking texture coordinates: the display screens are set so that the texture fills the screen. Does that help? - I don't understand the "map cameraX" line. The texture is to be used on all screens, with whatever cameraTarget the patch it's used on is set to. |

'The way Neon wants it to work is static immovable camera, no need to react on anything.' -- In that case, I think a func_cameraview/idCameraView (if necessary with a func_static model) can do that. (There's also a func_camera_anim/idCameraAnim.) However, I for one am happy to see func_securitycamera being worked on. If the aim is to get a fully usable security camera then http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/14394-apples-and-peaches-obsttortes-mapping-and-scripting-thread/page-12#entry352597 has a note on bugs that may be useful. |

I attached dragofer's test map with his camera model. He made this 3 years ago. Note, again, that the display screen is flipped horizontally. The gui material he's using on the screen is identical to the one I committed to SVN. |
|
|
Got it working in svn commit 7165. Needs a separate (unique) map (texture) for each mirror and camera like this textures/darkmod/camera2 { ... { ... map "table" } } |
|
|
Please note that the following modifier has no effect now mirrorRenderMap 512 256 The mirror texture is resized automatically to fit the rect it takes on the screen. |
|
|
What does map "table" do? Is it named that because it's pointing at a table? |
|
|
No that's just a unique name so that rendered images from different views don't conflict. It can be any name, I used "table" to link it to the camera looking at the table. |
|
|
Are there any possible performance implications from the mirrorRenderMap auto-resize? I'm thinking of Arcturus's grass test map, where there's a big lake that blends in a fairly low-res reflective surface (mirrorRenderMap 128 128) and relies on distortion, etc. to keep it looking good. Does the auto-resize also apply to remoteRenderMap? |
|
|
remoteRenderMap is fixed size, assumed to be the camera "display resolution". mirrorRenderMap performance needs independent testing. It could theoretically be a problem if texture is resized every frame. |

Mirrors in "Caduceus of St Alban's" are all black in the latest SVN... |
|
|
The one mirror I found in a bathroom uses this material: textures/washroom/mirror { discrete //translucent //twosided noshadows qer_editorimage textures/glass/mirror { blend gl_dst_color,gl_zero map textures/glass/mirror } solid mirror } |
|
|
Where is bathroom in "Caduceus of St Alban's"? The only kind of bathroom that I see in on the ground floor. http://i.piccy.info/i9/eb06d4332f08243eabde10dd2f7f930d/1506252007/670635/1182320/Bezymiannyi.jpg |
|

Strangely, I couldn't find any online images of them but I know there are at least two mirrors in rooms on this floor of the building: http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-dark-mod/images/the-caduceus-of-saint-alban2 |
|
|
I attached two savegames from the rooms where the mirrors are located. Saved with the latest SVN build. Extract into the fms/caduceus folder. |
|
|
textures/washroom/mirror fixed on the material level |
|
|
Both mirrors still black. |
|
|
Sorry. Try now (src svn) |
|
|
Yay! Brilliant! Working again! |
|
|
Skybox is broken in Caduceus with the latest revision 7174 |
|
|
Fixed in assets svn 14964 |
|
|
Fixed skybox in water reflection |
|
|
The Grass Demo map crashes on the latest build. Trying to get physics bounds for audio. |
|
|
Still crashing on the latest revision |
|
|
Transferring to duzenko, since we're now out of the realm of the remote camera. |
|
|
2.09 beta: Rev 16049 textures/washroom/mirror now has grime again |
|
|
The HOM check: if ( tr.viewDef->superView && tr.viewDef->superView->isSubview ) // 0004615 HOM effect - only draw mirrors from player's view and top-level subviews causes the skybox to render to reflections inside buildings. We either need to do a line-of-sight check to the skybox or revert this. Thoughts? |
