use setlistener() wrapper, not the raw _setlistener() function. The latter
is only meant to be used in files in $FG_ROOT/Nasal/ when they are called
immediately. Only then the wrapper can't be used, because it relies on
props.nas being loaded and props.Node() being defined.

Nope. But GIMP apparently generates corrupted files where compressed
scanlines aren't properly closed. (This is probably the reason why
they falsely claim that SGI doesn't support those. Yes, some spec
compliant readers may not like the corrupted GIMP files.  ;-)

I added a sanity check that makes sure we only read the number of
specified bytes, and no longer read until we find the mandatory
(which just may not be there in corrupt files). There should really
be more sanity checks. This code is rather sloppy. It makes invalid
assumptions about data type sizes, allocates insanely big buffers,
had no sanity checks, ...

Other corruption types will still crash this code, but the an2 file
should work now. Avoid GIMP and use KDE, and you'll be fine.  :-)

I understand. Leave the existing ufo alone, and I'll need to create a 
different Unencumbered Flying Object that can be GPL'd.

When I stop improving what I've already made, and start creating a new "real" 
ufo, I'll get back to you (all). :)

Are submodels disabled in the ufo? I believe someone suggested I convert to 
yasim or jsbsim for some other reason (too)...

Oh!? I'll have to dig deeper in my research.

If my {danube|shuttle}-splash.rgb files are actually 8-bit alpha, and they 
work for me, and I haven't heard any reports of problems, then that would 
discount my conclusion.

That would however, explain why my splash files are larger than desired.

> An example is the harrier splash screen. Does it crash fgfs for

no. it loads fine.

Yes, identify shows it as 8/8/8/1.
I can't tell if it is or isn't.
Gimp doesn't have an info panel that shows alpha bits, but using the color 
picker, I can't find any pixels with an alpha less than 255.

Ooops! That was a sloppy mistake.
I might actually promote my work in the _negative!_

Actually, I didn't have the an2 installed, so just copied the splash.rgb over 
to my model directory for testing.

I hear a complaint my models are too big.
...
I can't disagree with that.
Thanks to this thread, I have shrunk my image files by 1/3
   Yea!

Would it also help if I gut the interior and doors, and release a smaller, 
(less functional) version?
I think I'm better off just making a new model from scratch that can be GPL'd.

That'll take days. I was waiting for the next tarball point release before I

It isn't a client issue, but a mpserver issue;  if an mpserver has a defunct 
relay line to a server that is not resolvable, then this 'loopback' doubling 
up of client data happens.

I don't know why.

[Flightgear-devel] logging nasal listener calls

2007-04-28 Thread Melchior FRANZ
I've yesterday added two debug messages for Nasal listeners.
They are printed in --log-level={debug,bulk}. The first message
is output by the setlistener() wrapper in globals.nas. Example:

  setting listener #16 in /whatever/Nasal/dynamic_view.nas, line 414

People are therefore requested *not* to use the raw _setlistener()
function, except in files in $FG_ROOT/Nasal/ when they are
needed immediately. Only then the raw function is required, as
it doesn't rely on props.nas.

The second message reports listener calls by their listener id.
(This is the integer number that a setlistener() call returns.)
Example:

  trigger listener #16

To filter out the relevant messages, use a command line like

  $ fgfs --log-level=debug 2|grep listener


What is it good for? Using listeners on properties that change
one or more times per frame doesn't make sense. Listeners are
only efficient when the property is only occasionally written
to. Otherwise a simple loop is preferable. By checking the
listener call messages one can see if there are listeners
triggered in every frame.

Incidently, I have just migrated to a new ISP with a faster pipe - and I have 
adjusted the timeout on the server status page, so it should load and report 
a lot quicker now when servers are down.

I checked an arbitrary file for which "identify" reports 8/8/8/1,
but after checking the header values it turned out that is in fact
a normal, boring 8/8/8/8 file. The SGI format doesn't even support
8/8/8/1 -- there's no way to specify that in the header! So
"identify" is wrong, or tries to be clever. No idea where it
gets this nonsense from.

An example is the harrier splash screen. Does it crash fgfs for
you? (Doesn't for me.)

Don't have that aircraft. Is the texture available somewhere?

That's strange. Can you please update sg/fg and try again? (A new
backtrace would be nice, and the broken(?) texture.) I made some
changes to texture.cxx. I don't really think I fixed the problem,
but one never knows.  :-)

splash textures can now also be greyscale and greyscale/alpha,
and they also respect an alpha layer. That way one can use
countours (squadron emblems, etc.) together with varying background
colors (--prop:/sim/gui/style/colors/splash-screen/red=0.5 etc.)

I assume that KDE's image file module is the only way to check that. I

Perhaps the user could be notified if data hasn't been received from the
server in the last 20(??) seconds as it would help diagnosing of this
situation. At least this would let the user know about the echo problem.

This is what I said in IRC - we need a 'master' list of current mpservers so 
that all server 'runners' can keep the relays current and up-to-date.

At the moment this only happens when somebody notices an error - or as I did 
last week when I saw that mpserver01 had dropped my server from the relay, so 
mpserver05 wasn't showing mpserver01 pilots.


It is a bit of a mish-mash at the moment.
