| 18:06.12 | IriX64 | twingy... freebsdcad... sending it to incoming now. |
| 18:07.16 | IriX64 | have a linux build too, dunno what to do with that one :) |
| 18:12.21 | IriX64 | anybody in the channel have use for a linux build of brlcad i586arch? |
| 18:13.46 | IriX64 | smoke break. |
| 18:24.08 | ``Erik | why would twingy want your build? and why would anyone want a linux build? they're available from sourceforge, and pretty much all of us happily compile things ourselves... |
| 18:24.43 | IriX64 | did some work on it. |
| 18:25.11 | IriX64 | you already have a freebsd build? |
| 18:26.43 | IriX64 | chose freebsd cause its not mentioned at sourceforge. |
| 18:27.14 | brlcad | it's one of the supported binary distributions |
| 18:27.31 | brlcad | http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=105292 |
| 18:27.33 | brlcad | top of the list |
| 18:27.42 | IriX64 | ill stop this ftp transfer then. |
| 18:27.56 | IriX64 | or would you care to examine it. |
| 18:28.11 | IriX64 | did some work on the geometry browser. |
| 18:28.19 | brlcad | what sort of work? |
| 18:28.30 | brlcad | it could use a lot of work :) |
| 18:28.35 | IriX64 | cascading tree browser. |
| 18:28.49 | brlcad | i know what it is, I wrote most of it |
| 18:28.54 | brlcad | what did you do with it? |
| 18:29.15 | IriX64 | double click and it displays to the graphics window. |
| 18:29.29 | IriX64 | or clear and display and set color |
| 18:29.49 | brlcad | again, you're telling me what it does.. I know what it does :) |
| 18:29.59 | brlcad | what did YOU do with it, any code changes? |
| 18:29.59 | IriX64 | prettied the window up a little. |
| 18:30.10 | IriX64 | yes some |
| 18:30.27 | IriX64 | but this upload is the binaries. |
| 18:30.36 | IriX64 | ill send source if you like. |
| 18:30.36 | brlcad | you should post up a source patch |
| 18:30.51 | IriX64 | a diff? |
| 18:31.12 | brlcad | yeah, a unified diff (diff -u), post it to http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=105292&atid=640804 |
| 18:32.54 | IriX64 | that site loads but doesn't display anything. |
| 18:33.07 | IriX64 | whup sorry. |
| 18:33.19 | brlcad | do you see the "Submit New" link? |
| 18:33.30 | brlcad | http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=105292&atid=640804 |
| 18:34.09 | IriX64 | yes |
| 18:34.29 | IriX64 | says login and submit new. |
| 18:34.37 | IriX64 | im not in cvs. |
| 18:35.34 | brlcad | so login, and submit new :) |
| 18:36.25 | IriX64 | how do i begin doen't i have to be accepted to be able to login? |
| 18:37.19 | IriX64 | its the source of the SOURCEforge system i use :) |
| 18:39.59 | brlcad | do you have a sourceforge account? |
| 18:40.12 | IriX64 | no i don't. |
| 18:40.13 | brlcad | if not, create one -- there's a link on the login link |
| 18:40.19 | brlcad | it's quick |
| 18:40.21 | brlcad | painless |
| 18:40.41 | IriX64 | what does it do for me and how much does it cost? |
| 18:41.30 | ValarQ | how is brlcads support for generating drawings? |
| 18:42.13 | IriX64 | i dont have a postscript printer or a plotter so i cant comment, however the interface to generate same is beautiful. |
| 18:43.16 | IriX64 | the rendering to the screen tho, most beautiful pictures of the gunship ive ever seen, actually only pictures of it ive ever seen. |
| 18:43.30 | ValarQ | i have tried to generate postscript from some of the examples and it looks very good |
| 18:43.52 | ValarQ | but i might want to add some measurements and other information |
| 18:43.54 | IriX64 | maybe i should invest in such a printer. |
| 18:44.02 | ValarQ | can that be done easily? |
| 18:44.11 | IriX64 | should make it so the grid prints. |
| 18:44.29 | IriX64 | can be actually. |
| 18:45.27 | brlcad | IriX64: did you even look? it's free |
| 18:45.51 | brlcad | it lets you submit patches.. if that's not enough in itself, I'm not sure what would convince you |
| 18:46.12 | IriX64 | this is how id do it, your raytracing the drawing line by line anyway, simplay add a grid ala acad to the drawing and include an option to scan the grid or not so itll print on request |
| 18:46.39 | IriX64 | ive never looked brlcad i thought it was a subscription service like some others. |
| 18:47.42 | IriX64 | just have a switch for the grid like you do now. |
| 18:47.57 | IriX64 | use the grid control panel to set hash marks. |
| 18:48.36 | brlcad | ValarQ: there are various ways to save the wireframe, but the method used "in production" is the rtedge raytracer |
| 18:48.38 | IriX64 | smoke break bbiab |
| 18:49.41 | brlcad | rtedge doesn't have dimensioning support yet, but it does do nice hidden-line rendered drawings |
| 18:49.55 | ValarQ | rtedge? |
| 18:50.03 | brlcad | example: http://ftp.brlcad.org/images/havoc_rtedge.png |
| 18:50.25 | ValarQ | yeah, that looks great |
| 18:50.39 | ValarQ | i'm missing dimenstions thought |
| 18:51.47 | *** join/#brlcad PrezKennedy (n=Apathy@c-68-33-243-45.hsd1.md.comcast.net) | |
| 18:53.12 | ValarQ | how do you make that hidden-line render? |
| 18:53.22 | brlcad | run rtedge instead of rt |
| 18:53.45 | brlcad | brlman rtedge (or just man rtedge if your MANPATH is set) |
| 18:54.03 | brlcad | rtedge -F/dev/Xl -s1024 havoc.g havoc |
| 18:54.26 | brlcad | inside mged, maybe something like: rtedge -F/dev/Xl -s800 |
| 18:56.01 | PrezKennedy | brlcad, im afraid to wear my glasses now... im afraid no one will recognize me |
| 19:08.12 | brlcad | heh |
| 19:14.58 | IriX64 | havoc.sh neat |
| 19:17.31 | IriX64 | brlcad thats a lovely pix of havoc. |
| 19:18.10 | IriX64 | i have one of her climbing and showing her belly sort of lower left to upper right. |
| 19:20.31 | ``Erik | *yawn* |
| 19:20.56 | IriX64 | use your raytrace script loader to see ill dcc it to you if you like |
| 19:21.03 | ``Erik | freebsd users are mostly unlikely to bother with a binary on the sf page... we'd rather build from ports or do a pkg_add -r brlcad and get it from the freebsd buildfarm... :) |
| 19:21.15 | brlcad | IriX64: i've yet to see you use dcc successfully ;) |
| 19:21.28 | ``Erik | and havoc is an interesting 'coptor... the Mi28, which lost in a bid-war to the Ka50... both impressive machines :) |
| 19:21.32 | IriX64 | sigh point taken. :) |
| 19:21.52 | IriX64 | do u have a pix of the latter.? |
| 19:22.00 | ``Erik | google or go to wikipedia |
| 19:22.20 | IriX64 | should have thought of that doh. |
| 19:22.26 | ``Erik | I think it's nickname is "black shark"? |
| 19:22.41 | IriX64 | ill mail it to ``Erik :) |
| 19:22.42 | ``Erik | its, even |
| 19:23.15 | ``Erik | heh, the only email of mine you have is one that would bounce a large attachment :> |
| 19:23.18 | IriX64 | ``Erik my system knows who she is now :) |
| 19:23.46 | IriX64 | but no the script is very small load it in mgeds script loader. |
| 19:24.08 | IriX64 | displays nicely. |
| 19:24.33 | ``Erik | brlcad, why don't we have a simple aa box that just takes two opposing points? |
| 19:26.39 | IriX64 | mail ``Erik. |
| 19:27.38 | ``Erik | why? I don't want some script shit :/ |
| 19:27.53 | ``Erik | <-- busy trying to implement metaballs |
| 19:28.11 | IriX64 | its such hot shit toilet paper burns when it touches it. :) |
| 19:28.20 | IriX64 | smoke time bbiab. |
| 19:31.48 | ``Erik | mebbe I'll implement a two point aa box first, heh |
| 19:41.37 | brlcad | ``Erik: if you need a ground plane, that'd be a halfspace prim |
| 19:42.13 | brlcad | there is a make_bb cmd to make a simple bounding box arb on objects |
| 19:42.51 | brlcad | use that and move the top face underneath and you'll have a perfectly sized base box |
| 20:28.18 | ``Erik | hm, I was doing reflective/refrative stuff, so the goal was "near-infinite" |
| 20:28.37 | ``Erik | big honkin' hollow sphere with something to cut through it woulda probably been best... |
| 20:43.42 | Twingy | hum |
| 20:50.40 | ``Erik | bastage |
| 20:54.07 | SWPadnos | sumnum fargin' bastage? |
| 21:56.43 | ``Erik | mmm quesadillas |
| 22:14.37 | IriX64 | man.... ive gotta abort, i cant take it anymore. |
| 22:16.11 | IriX64 | chow |
| 22:22.21 | Twingy | that's what his mom said just before birth |
| 22:27.39 | ``Erik | awesome |
| 22:45.12 | Twingy | hah, grills gone wild |
