[Pipmak-Users] Play "cut Scenes"

[Wenzler, T. <we...@st...>]

Dear Christian,

=20

Since the Pipmak engine is not capable of playing Movies ort he like at
the moment, would it be possible to launch some external Application
from Pipmak to handle "cut scenes" ?

Or is this a possible security hazard beause you don't know what kind of
Application is launched to handle the Movieplaying?

Best Regards

Wow, that's cool! Impressive how well that works. Reminds me of the
semi-3D games on my TI calculator... A great example of creative misuse
of Pipmak, too :) - it would never have occurred to me to use Pipmak for
such a thing. I'm eager to see how far you can push this before hitting 
the limits of Pipmak...

On to your questions:

OK. How do you imagine locating the files? You'd need functions to 
display open/save dialogs, right? Thinking out loud, we could probably 
completely short-circuit the handling of paths by connecting file 
writing and reading directly to these dialogs via some opaque "file" 
objects. That would still disallow a script to read or write files 
without the user's permission, and it would also avoid stupid things 
like a developer working on Windows hardcoding paths with backslashes 
that don't work anywhere else.

Another idea: Maybe you could store the world created using your system 
in the "state" table (conceptually considering it as a state of the 
Autocubic project) and load and save it using Pipmak's existing saved 
game functionality?

Yeah, obviously being able to place the corners of a patch arbitrarily 
in 3D would be very useful here. There would still be no depth testing, 
however, so you'd still have to create the patches ordered from back to 
front.

I've re-upload a version with some little little improvements:

Now you it's possible to see something through the doors..
(but sometime what you see it's wrong...)

You don't need to dezip the file autocubic.pipmak, and you can use it
in the standard way.

Any comments?

Re: [Pipmak-Users] File IO with Pipmak and image manipulation.

[Andrea V. <and...@gm...>]

Hi, 

Here there is a very early development stage of the Autocubic project


http://viarengo.altervista.org/download/autocubic.pipmak.zip


1) There aren't textures and objects
2) Through the doors you do not succeed to see the next room content
3) It's possible to pass through the walls without care if there is a door.
4) You have to decompress the zip file in the same folder of pipmak.exe

Re: [Pipmak-Users] File IO with Pipmak and image manipulation.

[Andrea V. <and...@gm...>]

Hi Christian,

Thank you for the answer,

I try to explain to you what I'm doing.
I've written a pipmak project with just one cubic node, but this node is
generated through patches reading from a map file.

The prototype is working good, for the moment I've work just on indoor views
and the effect is quite good (rooms and corridors are substantially cubes.
Do you remember my last project "myHome virtual tour"?).

Using this system you can create some spaces without the necessity to use a
3D/CAD application,
So you can navigate inside space with hundred of panoramic views automatically
generated...
you have only to define some texture for the walls, the doors, the
floors and the objects like furniture and so on...

I believe this could approach more people to Pipmak,
what do you think about that?
Off course the views generated using 3D program is better, 
but sometime to do that is tedious...
So you can automatically generate some parts of a project 
(not all), at least the simple parts... 

The internal views are more simple because I can use only one level of height
(if the eyes of a man are located about at 1.75 meters, the height of my view,
and of my cube is about  3.5 meters)

The external view are more complicated because one level isn't sufficient
to represent the reality with terrain, building with roofs etc..
I will think to the exteriors in a second time.

The maps now is a tridimensional array loaded using dofile(),
Therefore I need to write a map editor (always using Pipmak), 
for this reason I need the possibility to write and to read a text file.

You understand also the the possibility to distort patch is very important to
this project...
for the moment I use a square patch, and a trapezoidal view of
the same square divided in 3 patch:
an upper triangle,a middle rectangle and a lower triangle;
this work good with walls without texture (only colored)
but less good with far walls with texture...

If you are interested, I can show you my first prototype.

Bye

Andrea

The Lua IO library (along with the OS library) has deliberately been 
left out of Pipmak - it's considered a feature that Pipmak projects are 
not able to mess around with a user's files. Can you explain what 
exactly you want to do? We might find a solution that meets both goals.

Also, you always have the option of compiling your own version of Pipmak 
that includes the IO library.

If the file you want to read lives inside the project and can be brought 
into Lua form, you could also use pipmak.dofile().

That should be quite easy, given that Pipmak uses OpenGL. Well, 
perspective distortion would only work on panoramic nodes because on 
flat nodes the camera is orthographic - you'd have to live with linear 
distortion there.

> Another useful method would be a function to crop a patch.

That shouldn't be too difficult either. It might get a bit messy 
together with the support of rigid margins/stretchable center for 
patches on flat nodes that's already in SVN, but it should be manageable.

What are you trying to do with that? Maybe it could already be done 
using two overlapping patches, one covering the portions of the other 
that you want cropped away?

[Pipmak-Users] File IO with Pipmak and image manipulation.

[Andrea V. <and...@gm...>]

Hi Chris,

I have two questions for you.

The first:
I need to write and to read info from external file, I tried standard Lue IO lib
without success:

  for line in io.lines(filename) do ... end

and

  for line in file:lines() do ... end

How I can do that?


Second one:
It would be difficult implement in pipmak a method to distort a patch in a
perspective manner?
That is, a function which deform a rectangular patch in a
trapezial one,
passing 4 arbitrary points that lie on the surface of a cubic face.

This think would be very usefull,
so I haven't to create with photoshop a lot of different views of the same
patch, but I could generate those with script.

Another useful method would be a function to crop a patch.


Thank you for your answers

Ciao.

OK, done, after no negative and some (private) positive feedback.

Posting on Pipmak-Users is now only allowed for list members, posts by 
non-members are held back for moderation. This should take care of the

That sounds like the expected behavior to me. setmousemode (which is 
just what the M key uses) does work, but it affects the standard 
setting, i.e. the bottommost in the stack, which is not in effect when 
there are others above it on the stack, like the one you just pushed 
(and you explicitly set that to the previous standard setting).

> On popmousemode() 'token' is not recognized as mode type

Not sure what you mean by that. Yes, it's not a mode, it's an opaque 
token (or cookie or ticket or whatever you want to call it) that you 
can't use for anything but popmousemode().

If you can explain to me what you're trying to achieve with that code, I 
can perhaps clarify the documentation. I suspect that you're confused 
about how pushmousemode/popmousemode work (and if so, that's probably my 
fault for not explaining it properly, or maybe even mis-designing it).

Maybe this bug could be useful for some purpose however I've fixed it wit=

if i =3D=3D 25 then pipmak.gotonode(4)else return 0.25 end

but removing "return 0.25" in the last line.

Good catch. That's a bug. I didn't anticipate that a timer could change 
nodes when I wrote the timer code. (This stuff is written in Lua, by the 
way, if you'd like to have a go at fixing it yourself: 
pipmak_internal.runtimers() in Pipmak Resources/resources/defaults.lua 
(line 234 in rev. 133).)

What happens (I assume, at least - I haven't actually tried it yet) is 
that by the time the timer is re-scheduled because it returned 
something, you're already on node 4, and the 
deleting-timers-on-node-change is already past. You should be able to 
work around it by conditionalizing the return too:

   if i == 25 then pipmak.gotonode(4)
   else return 0.25 end

I'll try to come up with a proper solution. I somehow suspect that there 
might be other problems of this nature hiding in there...

[Pipmak-Users] Spam - restrict posting to subscribers?

[Christian W. <cwa...@gm...>]

Spam is getting worse now on this list as well. To stop this, I am 
considering switching the list to subscriber-only posting, as I already 
did on the Pipmak-Devel list three months ago. Are there any objections 
against this?

It would mean that if you're not subscribed and send e-mail to

will be held for moderation and may only appear on the list a few days 
later when I have had time to review it. For subscribers, posting will 
continue to work as it always did.

If you're reading the list through Gmane or on the web and don't want to 
receive its posts by e-mail, but still want to be able to post directly,

[Christian W. <cwa...@gm...>]

Pipmak 0.2.6 is out! This release includes a variety of bug fixes and 
minor new features. Most important among them a 'New Project' button in 
the main menu that creates a skeleton project to build on - a feature 
that I hope will make Pipmak more accessible to newcomers, even though 
it does not actually do much. There are also some improvements in the 
way mouse modes (direct/joystick) are handled.

Re: [Pipmak-Users] What is a good game?

[Nathan W. <nat...@ma...>]

For me: (this includes a good PipMak game too)

	1. Gameplay - Good Puzles, but, not stupid hard (something
that's logical).  I like puzzles that aren't like those little pictures
on a 3x3 grid and one's missing so that you can slide another in it's
place.  Puzzles like that, to me at least, are very boring.  Others may
like them though.
	2. Storyline - For a PipMak game this wouldn't be critical if
the other game elements are on key, but, if they're lacking then this
would have to be very intriguing.
	3. Graphics - Photo real
	4. Music - Good music is a must.  Sound effects would be up
there too if the graphics were photo real.

	The tool I use mainly is LightWave, but, you could use Maya, 3dS
Max (Myst III), XSI, Blender, etc...  I wouldn't use Strata as they use
some weird calculations in there renders so the images aren't seamless
if you render out a cube.  Plus, the lighting changes when you change
camera angles.

Are you sure you want to move a panel, not a patch? Panels are not 
really made for this. (Though perhaps that could be changed if you can 
explain why using a panel for this is useful.)

> using moveby() method with x or y value of mouseminusclickloc() but how can I limit the range?

I don't think moveby() is the right tool for this. The purpose of 
moveby() is to adjust both the relative and the absolute part of the 
panel's position in such a way that the panel moves sensibly when the 
window is resized - if you put it in the center of the window, then 
resize the window, it will stay centered; if you put it 10 pixels from 
the right edge, it will stay at 10 pixels from the edge, etc.

Assuming that the slider track is on a slide, the proper solution is to 
keep the absolute part fixed (to the negative of the center of the 
panel, or whichever point is "attached" to the track) and only modify 
the relative part. That would work about as follows (it's a mess 
because, as I said, you're using panels in ways that they weren't 
intended for): While dragging, add the difference from the click 
location to the center (or the "fixed point") of the panel to the mouse 
location. Convert this point from the panel's coordinate system to 
screen-relative coordinates using the panel's current location and the 
pipmak.screensize() function. Then clamp that value to the allowed 
range, and set the relative part of the panel position to it.
(I hope you can work out the math on your own, I'd have to spend more 
time on it as well.)

Oh wait, I just found that there's no public method that returns the 
position of a panel - that's a deficiency that I'll have to fix for 
0.2.6. Meanwhile, you can use the <panel>.relx, <panel>.rely, 
<panel>.absx, <panel>.absy instance variables, but that's not officially 
supported and might cease to work in a future version.

> I think I have to use the mouseloc() coords of the background node but I cannot understand how to pass it to the overlayed panel.

To pass things between nodes, you generally use "messages { ... }"  and 
the "message()" method of a node. As an example, have a look at the 
inventory in the demo project (node 50) and how it's used from node 16.

Yes. Each node is represented by a distinct Lua object that is not 
modified by Pipmak once it's created (I think) (except to invalidate it 
when the node is left), and Pipmak doesn't assign any new values to 
global variables you define either.

I can't think of any meaningful definition of the coordinates of a 
panorama or a slide, but for panels you're right that such a method 
should exist. As I said above, it currently doesn't, but I just fixed 
this in Subversion. Thanks for spotting this. If you don't want to wait 
for the release, you can apply the fix yourself to 
resources/defaults.lua in the "Pipmak Resources" archive: 
<http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pipmak/trunk/pipmak/resources/resources/defaults.lua?r1=119&r2=133>


Hope this helps

I' have to make a slide control, to do so I have to move a panel  using m=
oveby() method with x or y value of mouseminusclickloc() but how can I li=
mit the range?
I think I have to use the mouseloc() coords of the background node but I =
cannot understand how to pass it to the overlayed panel.
Another doubt:if on node A MyNode =3D pipmak.thisnode(),on node B MyNode =
is still node A? 
There's a method that returns the coordinates(x,y) of a node?

Maybe are too many questions ^_^ but I'm a little confused...
