Re: [Speed-dreams-users] SD Physics Engine

[Adam L. <ada...@gm...>]

Hi Paul,

I've been working with integrating Open Modelia to external applications.
In general it would be cool to hook Modelia up to Speed Dreams and for your
case in particular I can see this combination useful, as there are a lot
functionalities and models available in the modelica standard library that
will allow for quickly implementing different control strategies.

[Speed-dreams-users] SD Physics Engine

[Paul T. <pvt...@gm...>]

Hello,
I want to do research on Automobile Smart Cruise Control design.  A Smart
Cruise Control at its most basic level is a system that integrates forward
looking radar into a traditional Cruise Control.  The forward looking radar
is used to detect cars in front and then speed is regulated to follow the
car at a preset distance (1 car length, 2 car lengths, etc.).  I am
interested in designing the algorithms and controlling PIDs to regulate the
car's speed and to integrate the forward looking radar range into this PID
design.

I was wondering if I could use Speed Dreams as a research testbed to
generate a simulation environment that my Cruise Control PID could operate
within.  I would need to be able to received speed information for the car
I am controlling as well distance information for surrounding cars.  I
would also need to be able to control the throttle and brakes for the car I
am controlling.  Is this possible with Speed Dreams?

[Speed-dreams-users] (no subject)

[Kapil G. <kpg...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have a problem with using the simulator. If I use the default control
settings in which left/right steering is done using the mouse motion, then
the simulator works properly. But if I change it to use the keyboard, then
the game hangs up as soon as the race starts and closes down.

What can be done to remove this problem?

[Speed-dreams-users] Cannot register in forums/Gamepad issue

[Rui V. <rui...@gm...>]

Hi everyone

Just trying out SD for the first time; loving what I've seen so far.

I tried to register in the community forums, but I must be doing something
wrong.

In fact, I don't know what I'm supposed to do with the confirmation
"question"...

Anyway: the reason I'm posting is that I cannot get my Thrustmaste wireless
gamepad to show in SD controls. I press the LEFT STEER option, for example,
but moving an axis on the gamepad does not have any effect in the menu.

The gamepad does work; in other games I've used JOY2KEY, and this works,
but has no analog possibilities, so everything is obviously worse.

Any hints appreciated.

Thanks

Rui

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] Compilation Error

Hi & Welcome,

 From what you have posted, it looks like PLIB was not built with -fPIC.

Here is a good link about the build process (on Ubuntu).

I am not very familiar with regard to Torcs but the Speed Dreams wiki:

The Torc's Car Editor should work with Speed Dreams. It may not show the

It should be. You might try starting with the Karts. You will definetly

[Speed-dreams-users] Quad bike model

[Frank P. <fap...@gm...>]

Hello to all,

For a project I am working on I must model a real Quad bike (four wheels)
in Speed Dreams or Torcs. I just got assigned this and though I've been
researching frantically I still got some doubts. In short, these are:

1) Is Speed Dreams the way to go given the amount of time it has passed
since the creation of Torcs?

2) I know there's a Torcs Car Editor that makes the parameters easier to
input, but I'm wondering if it's compatible with Speed Dreams?

2) Is it possible to model a Quad bike in one of these softwares by
tweeking the parameters of the vehicles (or submitting a new model)?

3) So far, I have only found Torcs documentation that briefly explain some
parameters of the vehicle but the XML file for any of the models that
already come incorporated show a lot more. Is there any such document that
touches this subject?

Thanks in advance,

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] big bug on Linux

[fran <bra...@gm...>]

I'm new to the game but I suppose you wanna compile agains SDL1

I go to the sources directory (there is a README.txt and INSTALL.txt,
right?)
inside this directory create a "build" or "mybuild" (or anything) directory
and inside
this new directory I run:

>>> cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:STRING=/home/user/bin/speeddreams/ -D
OPTION_OSGGRAPH:BOOL=OFF -D OPTION_SDL2:BOOL=OFF ..

(dont miss that the last argument is "..")

If this is going fine several configurations being taken will appear and
the important one should look like this:
...
-- Found SDL: /usr/lib64/libSDLmain.a;/usr/lib64/libSDL.so;-lpthread (found
version "1.2.15")
...

followed by a
>>> make
...
>>> make install

The important bit is the -D OPTION_SDL2:BOOL=OFF configuration option

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] big bug on Linux

[Martin H. <mar...@gm...>]

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 (beta) and compiled with SDL 2.0.4. The game
starts, but I can use my logitech f710 (an xbox 360 type) controller. I
tried both xpad kernel driver and xboxdrv userspace driver. The latter
worked fine for me on other systems. Now I used below to compile with SDL1
(I first installed the SDL1 libs), but it still compiles to SDL 2.0.4.

Any idea how to get the controller working?

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] big bug on Linux

[Joe <min...@ea...>]

Hello all,
I think that this is a problem with SDL2.
If you run Speed-Dreams from a terminal, near the top you should see:
00:00:00.000 Default  Info    Compiled against SDL version 2.0.4
00:00:00.000 Default  Info    Linking against SDL version 2.0.4.

If you could report what version of SDL you have, that might help.

Thanks.

You can also build with SDL1.2 which should work.
Add -D OPTION_SDL2:BOOL=OFF

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] big bug on Linux

[fran <bra...@gm...>]

same problem here (linux too, compiled from source)
Compiled with -D OPTION_OSGGRAPH:BOOL=OFF and obviously without
freesolid. After 10 seconds after race begins the throttle remains
accelerating even if im not pressing the key. UNPLAYABLE.

[Speed-dreams-users] big bug on Linux

[enrico l. <ric...@gm...>]

Great game work, but in the latest release (2.2.0.1) many times the car
remains accellerate (full throttle) even if i leave the finger from the
throttle button.
In this condition the race is unplayable.

Second issue, i've installed all the packages, including "More cars and
tracks": the are now many tracks, but still the same base cars (on Linux
only, the windows version is complete).

[Speed-dreams-users] 2.2.0 Release available

Hi all,
The Speed Dreams Team is happy to announce that release 2.2 is now 
available for download at SourceForge:

[Speed-dreams-users] problem compiling freesolid

[fran <bra...@gm...>]

Hi guys, I'm a new speeddreams user and I run linux OS.
I've tried compiling from source and failed instantly
compiling FreeSolid.

I've downloaded FreeSOLID-2.1.2.zip

This is a slackware system and I'know several libraries
could be broken because I just dont track anything, I just install
and even force links to emulate previous library versions.

But, anyways I reinstalled glibc and gcc and bintutils packages
from a sane state and at this point the build error wasn't what I've
expected.

Did a
sh bootstrap.sh
./configure
and make

And there raises this compile error

Before this I note this ./configure errors

I hope soebody could note what's happening here to finally compile the game.

Also note that I plan to compile this againt
speed-dreams-src-base-2.2.0-rc1-r6358.tar.xz

Any advices to solve this?

Re: [Speed-dreams-users] Speed-dreams wiki/manual

[madbad <mad...@gm...>]

Hi Warren, all.
You have made some nice suggestion

== MANUAL/WIKI ==
There is already a wiki located at
https://sourceforge.net/p/speed-dreams/wiki/Home/
and it is already liked in the SD home page, maybe it has not the
visibility it deserve.
I think write access is currently only available to the dev team members.

The wiki has already a good amount of information's about SD, but I'm with
you when you say:
- information is not centralized enough (wiki, post on the forums, mailing
list,chats, files installed etc), and this cause of some documentation to
not to be updated as it should.
- not everything is as well documented as it should be.

That is probably due to:
- lack of manpower, the team is not big enough to have a dedicated person
who write documentation
- other priorities: developers, from my experience, likes more to write
code instead of documentation (myself included)

I think your help is well appreciated and wanted but please don't do work
for the sake of doing it, and try not to create another
soon-to-be-unmantained manual but update what is already in place in
accordance with the rest of the dev team.


== PUBBLICITY/FOLLOWERS ==
Some work was done in this direction we already have account setup in all
the social (twitter, facebook, google+, youtube etc)
Maybe they are not as active as they should and we can try to have them
more active with more posting about development updates.
I've always tough that the best publicity for a game is playing it, when we
will have online multiplayer mode available I think that will help a lot.


Thanks for all the help you will give!

Cheers, Madbad
