00:44.48 elf_ you are right, those numbers where put there kinda out of nowhere, I hope now that is fixed and explained how they were obtained and what they are

13:20.18 elf_ brlcad, does that tutorial look good to you?
13:22.03 elf_ I've also been talking with abhi about what he got done last year and what's next to be done and I think I should start see if collisions are being detected in mged, also in parallel with checking things in mged I can create a simple program in bullet
13:23.00 elf_ in this program I can have a cube lying over another static cube/ground plane and check the contact points that bullet is generating and the normals
13:23.11 elf_ then I can try and replicate those inside mged
13:23.16 elf_ so?
14:04.42 *** join/#brlcad pawleeq (~pawleeq@202.32.broadband2.iol.cz)
14:13.00 brlcad elf_: er, where's the animation?
14:13.42 brlcad you can't take someone through that whole tutorial on making a simulation and not actually show them the final product! :)
14:13.48 brlcad should show both animations really
14:14.17 brlcad I
14:15.42 brlcad I'd suggest a couple changes to the image you uploaded too, zoom 1.4 and interlay a raytrace so it's easier to see
14:16.17 elf_ Yeah, you are right, will upload the mpg video on uhmm youtube maybe, and by both you mean from both scripts, right? :)
14:16.29 elf_ how do I go about interlaying that raytrace? nirt?
14:18.05 brlcad no, open up the raytrace control panel (on file or tools menu)
14:18.40 brlcad click the button, then select whichever interlay/overlay/underlay option looks best to you
14:19.10 brlcad you should be able to upload the mpg to the wiki -- if not, let me know
14:19.43 brlcad alternatively, you could use imagemagik to convert it to an animated gif since it's so simple, then just embed that like the other image
14:20.45 brlcad elf_: there's also no "matter" command... :)
14:22.04 brlcad also, rename your az35 example script to az35.rt just so we're consistent with other docs
14:22.14 elf_ you are right there's just one t in mater
14:23.19 elf_ okay, hmmm so I could make a gif out of the images with ImageMagick, I think that's more appropriate than a movie
14:32.30 brlcad elf_: something small like 256x256 or 128x128 will probably be fine if it's zoomed in enough
14:32.40 brlcad we'll just have to watch the file size
14:33.10 brlcad we can directly link to hosted files too, so we can link to an mgp
14:35.14 brlcad post the mpg somewhere regardless, I want to see it :)
14:35.22 elf_ okay :)
15:04.30 brlcad anyone on a mac care to try this new app bundle? http://brlcad.org/~sean/tmp/BRL-CAD_7.22.0_app3.zip
15:08.48 CIA-83 BRL-CAD: 03Elf11 07http://brlcad.org * r0 10/wiki/Special:Log/upload: uploaded a new version of "[[Image:Simulation 1.png]]"
15:10.47 elf_ it's there a command that I can integrate in a script so that I can do raytrace overlaying for the images that go into the gif/mpeg?
15:10.53 elf_ They would look better that way
15:41.04 brlcad elf_: I'm not sure I understand what you mean
15:41.19 brlcad you mean seeing the object edges highlighted?
15:41.34 brlcad you can use the rtedge command to do that (man rtedge, see the -c "set ov=1" option)
15:42.30 brlcad I think you'll have to use an fbserv to merge multiple renderings, don't think it'll overlay into an existing pix/png -- only into a framebuffer
16:45.38 elf_ brlcad, this is what I mean http://youtu.be/KhE0HO8Uloc the lighting on the dark background it's not good, I want it too look like this one ihttp://brlcad.org/wiki/Image:Simulation_1.png
16:45.49 elf_ http://brlcad.org/wiki/Image:Simulation_1.png *
16:46.39 elf_ That's why I asked if there was a command to put in the script so it raytraces the geometry the same way it does in the mged window
