| 00:30.57 | starseeker | Hmm - this looks like fun to model - too bad the dimensions are too small to read http://arcweb.archives.gov/arc/digital_detail.jsp?&pg=1&rn=2&tn=796236&st=b&rp=summary&nh=2&si=0 |
| 00:35.29 | brlcad | cookie'd link, can't read it |

| 00:41.28 | starseeker | http://my.bzflag.bz/~starseeker/783889_001_a.jpg |
| 00:44.40 | brlcad | that would make an *awesome* csg model |
| 00:45.32 | brlcad | you don't need to read dimensions, you could print that out, pull out a compass/protractor/ruler and go to town |
| 00:47.33 | starseeker | true :-) |
| 00:47.42 | starseeker | given an overall length anyway |
| 00:50.06 | brlcad | looks like it's documented http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0060524049 |

| 01:21.11 | starseeker | Awesome |

| 01:41.47 | brlcad | yeah |
| 02:16.23 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30490 10/brlcad/trunk/ (doc/deprecation.txt include/wdb.h): deprecate mk_fastgen_comb() .. should just use mk_comb() or mk_lcomb() |

| 02:37.55 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30491 10/brlcad/trunk/include/raytrace.h: cleanup comments on LOS |
| 02:41.19 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30492 10/brlcad/trunk/ (NEWS src/conv/fast4-g.c): |
| 02:41.20 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: make the regions being created by fastf-g default to setting the material code |
| 02:41.24 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: to 1 and LOS to 100 so that it actually matches the defaults that the modeler |
| 02:41.26 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: and librt use. this quick tweak implements a request from dwayne kregel (S2 SCR |
| 02:41.28 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: 918) .. which I just heard about it a few min ago. |
| 02:50.10 | starseeker | Hey brlcad - the terra.dsp and terra.g files in the demo db don't seem to be happy - DSP buffer wrong size: 131592 s/b 131072 |
| 02:52.14 | brlcad | see what svn props are set on terra.dsp |
| 02:52.29 | brlcad | probably thinks it's a windows file |
| 02:53.05 | brlcad | probably need to unset svn:eol-style, or set it to something better |
| 02:54.21 | starseeker | svn:eol-style is set to CRLF |
| 02:56.50 | brlcad | yeah, that's wrong |
| 02:57.02 | brlcad | dsp files are usually msvc studio files |
| 02:57.15 | brlcad | so it was set on import |
| 02:57.40 | brlcad | should be able to just unset the prop and check it out from svn again |
| 03:23.59 | starseeker | Is this the bit where svn is difficult about unsetting the prop? |
| 03:24.06 | starseeker | s/difficult/different |
| 03:27.00 | starseeker | Bingo - that was it |
| 03:27.16 | starseeker | svn propdel svn:eol-style terra.dsp |
| 03:27.28 | starseeker | should this be fixed in the main tree? |
| 03:28.31 | brlcad | yep |
| 03:28.54 | starseeker | will a commit do it or does it need some magic on the sf side? |
| 03:29.08 | brlcad | that'll do it |
| 03:29.53 | starseeker | k |
| 03:29.58 | starseeker | hmm - weird |
| 03:30.33 | starseeker | when I display ground.r and try to run rt I get raytrace failed, but the mged dialog succeeded? |
| 03:31.20 | brlcad | what mged dialog? |
| 03:31.35 | starseeker | File -> Raytrace |
| 03:32.00 | brlcad | oh, you mean it works through the panel, but not with just "rt"? |
| 03:32.07 | starseeker | yes |
| 03:32.12 | brlcad | what's the error? |
| 03:32.17 | starseeker | Raytrace failed. |
| 03:32.26 | brlcad | heh, what led up to that |
| 03:32.36 | starseeker | trying to find an error in the message... |
| 03:33.13 | starseeker | bizarre - I don't seen an error message |
| 03:33.14 | brlcad | should be right before the failed message |
| 03:33.21 | brlcad | or it's crashing |
| 03:33.30 | brlcad | try it on the command line |
| 03:33.48 | brlcad | run "saveview" to save an rt script |
| 03:33.52 | brlcad | then run that script |
| 03:34.04 | brlcad | look at the log file and/or tweak the script to see what's going on |
| 03:34.14 | brlcad | (it's just a simple text shell script) |
| 03:34.19 | starseeker | Hmm - with the command line rt it says Segmentation fault |
| 03:34.40 | brlcad | that's not good |
| 03:34.44 | brlcad | this using head? |
| 03:35.01 | starseeker | Not the very latest - let me rebuild |
| 03:37.28 | starseeker | Hmm - the script did generate a pix file, apparently |
| 03:38.21 | starseeker | Can I do the commit on just terra.dsp or do I need to do the db dir to get the .svn props |
| 03:39.58 | CIA-32 | BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r30493 10/brlcad/trunk/db/terra.dsp: Update props on terra.dsp to avoid file size issues when running demo. |
| 03:40.06 | starseeker | wow that was fast |
| 03:40.19 | brlcad | should be instantaneous :) |
| 03:40.27 | brlcad | we fixed most of the CIA bugs |
| 03:40.32 | starseeker | Cool :-) |
| 03:40.43 | starseeker | OK, time to rebuild... |
| 03:41.17 | brlcad | common pitfall .. once you use the script, there will be a pix file with mode 400 so you have to manually rm -f the file to render again |
| 03:41.33 | brlcad | make sure it's non-zero too .. and the right size |
| 03:41.37 | brlcad | might have just stubbed a file |
| 03:41.41 | brlcad | or partial result |
| 03:41.48 | starseeker | OK - let me rebuild first |
| 03:45.08 | starseeker | brlcad: a thought (which was what prompted the dsp experiment) - could a dsp be created that had ocean wave contours and then rendered with water transparency? |
| 03:45.37 | starseeker | (say, for a ship at sea effect?) |
| 03:46.49 | starseeker | For bonus points, it could have a repeatable pattern and be mirrored arbitrarily to create larger ocean areas |
| 04:04.16 | brlcad | sure could |
| 04:04.33 | brlcad | there is a smoothed normals option on the dsp that should do nicely |
| 04:04.54 | brlcad | might look more like glass than water, but certainly possible to get old-school water probably |
| 04:06.17 | starseeker | maybe using extinction on the glass shader and a blue tint, then modeling actual ocean depth in the dsp? |
| 04:08.28 | starseeker | If we wanted to get REALLY fancy we could add a routine adding/subtracting peaks and valleys in the dsp to create wave interference |
| 04:17.10 | brlcad | and/or code up a new water shader ;) |
| 04:19.01 | starseeker | New feature - modeling tanks under water! |
| 04:19.37 | starseeker | Although I suppose it might be useful in "plowing through river" scenarios... |
| 04:20.19 | brlcad | there's all sorts of fluids that it could represent that would be useful to be able to visualize |
| 04:21.11 | brlcad | fuel and blood come to mind .. |
| 04:21.26 | starseeker | coolant |
| 04:21.36 | brlcad | oil, other lubricants |
| 04:21.54 | starseeker | Would a proper water shader have to produce gradient effects? |
| 04:24.09 | brlcad | I know we can represent atmospheric effects visually, though I really forget the mechanism at the moment (it's probably a procedural shader iirc) |
| 04:24.30 | brlcad | something similar or maybe even that same shader might give the right effect, dunno |
| 04:24.51 | brlcad | that's all experimental stuff, you'd likely be digging in code a bit |
| 04:31.00 | starseeker | Phew - latest head cvs does NOT crash with the rt command |

| 04:47.09 | starseeker | Um - not sure |
| 04:52.05 | louipc | sweet |
| 04:53.16 | louipc | I'm going to change the included PKGBUILD so it's mostly static. I can't figure how to really make it otherwise |

| 05:07.13 | brlcad | saw that, nifty |
| 05:08.38 | louipc | I was wondering could there be a README on how to build packages for various distros to supplement INSTALL? |
| 05:09.02 | brlcad | louipc: if there are edits that should get made when we release, should document it in HACKING in the release steps |
| 05:09.14 | brlcad | there are platform-specific readme's already |
| 05:09.20 | louipc | eg. since you've got debian, redhat, archlinux, etc |
