[osg-users] How to create flare or Shining star with OSG
Hi, I am a newbie to osg and developing a flight simulation. For some reason i have to create a chaff flare just like an F-16 throws. It should be too bright but doesnt has to lighten another objects in the scene. Smoke trail, animation path etc. and other effects are easy to do but the flaring part that i just dont have any idea. How could i do this? Thank you!

[osg-users] How to overcome trnasparency blending distortion
Hi, when i'm drawing a transparent pyramid it is ok; but while i rotating via transformation matrix this pyramid outside this updating makes distortions in the pyramid just like the triangle primitives have patterns. I tried other blending modes else than GL_BLEND and mede stateattr protected etc. but didnt work. How i can overcome this? The little code that i wrote: Code: pyramidGeometry->getOrCreateStateSet()->setMode(GL_BLEND, osg::StateAttribute::ON); pyramidGeometry->getOrCreateStateSet()->setRenderingHint(osg::StateSet::TRANSPARENT_BIN); Map3DFOVObject->addDrawable(pyramidGeometry.release()); FOVTransformMatrix->addChild(Map3DFOVObject.get()); [/code] -- Read this topic online here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=44382#44382 ___ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
Re: [osg-users] How to overcome trnasparency blending distortion
Hi, I just understood that the problem is about releasing the object and also other primitives that i've added into pyramidGeometry. Because reusing and updating the pyramidGeometry(i.e rotating about some axis in a simulation) each time the drawing methods were releasing and creating a new one(maybe per each frame) the object just seems distorted. So i've just controlled the pointers if they created or not and after that added the primiteves without releasing them. If anybody has the same problem i can write the wrong and true codes here ...

Hi, a simple line drawing code is below but i'm sure you want more complicated solition. Below you can update the start and end points on the fly by osgGA mouse movement. Code: osg::Vec3 sp(0,-180,120); osg::Vec3 ep(0,480,120); osg::ref_ptr beam( new osg::Geometry); osg::ref_ptr points = new osg::Vec3Array; points->push_back(sp); points->push_back(ep); osg::ref_ptr color = new osg::Vec4Array; color->push_back(osg::Vec4(1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0)); beam->setVertexArray(points.get()); beam->setColorArray(color.get()); beam->setColorBinding(osg::Geometry::BIND_PER_PRIMITIVE); beam->addPrimitiveSet(new osg::DrawArrays(GL_LINES,0,2)); Thank you!

[osg-users] Rocket Animation
Hi, Finally i have made the groundwork of my rocket animation, i used a spehere until i find a rocket model :D and still, there is something that didnt get clear! Note: some codes below are taken from the osgparticleeffects example. Code: osg::AnimationPath* createAnimationPath(const osg::Vec3& center,float radius,double looptime) { // set up the animation path osg::AnimationPath* animationPath = new osg::AnimationPath; animationPath->setLoopMode(osg::AnimationPath::LOOP); int numSamples = 40; float yaw = 0.0f; float yaw_delta = 2.0f*osg::PI/((float)numSamples-1.0f); float roll = osg::inDegrees(30.0f); double time=0.0f; double time_delta = looptime/(double)numSamples; for(int i=0;iinsert(time,osg::AnimationPath::ControlPoint(position,rotation)); yaw += yaw_delta; time += time_delta; } return animationPath; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { osgViewer::Viewer viewer; osg::Group * root = new osg::Group; osg::Geode *rocketModel = new osg::Geode; osg::Sphere *rocket = new osg::Sphere; /CREATE SPHERE// //rocket->setCenter(osg::Vec3f(0,0,0)); rocket->setRadius(1.1f); osg::ShapeDrawable* rocketDrawable = new osg::ShapeDrawable(rocket); rocketModel->addDrawable(rocketDrawable); //ANIMATION LOOP// float animationLength = 10.0f; float radius = 10; osg::Vec3f center(0,0,0); osg::AnimationPath* animationPath = createAnimationPath(center,radius,animationLength); const osg::BoundingSphere& bs = rocketModel->getBound(); float size = radius/bs.radius()*0.15f; osg::MatrixTransform* positioned = new osg::MatrixTransform; positioned->getOrCreateStateSet()->setMode(GL_NORMALIZE, osg::StateAttribute::ON); positioned->setDataVariance(osg::Object::STATIC); positioned->setMatrix(osg::Matrix::translate(-bs.center())* osg::Matrix::scale(size,size,size)* osg::Matrix::rotate(osg::inDegrees(180.0f),0.0f,0.0f,1.0f)); osg::PositionAttitudeTransform* rocketPath = new osg::PositionAttitudeTransform; rocketPath->setDataVariance(osg::Object::DYNAMIC); rocketPath->getOrCreateStateSet()->setMode(GL_NORMALIZE, osg::StateAttribute::ON); rocketPath->setUpdateCallback(new osg::AnimationPathCallback(animationPath,0.0,0.5)); /SMOKE TRAIL osg::Vec3 position = rocket->getCenter()+ osg::Vec3f(rocket->getRadius()/2,rocket->getRadius()/2,rocket->getRadius()/2); float scale = 1000.0f * ((float)rand() / (float)RAND_MAX); float intensity = 11.0f; osgParticle::FireEffect* fire = new osgParticle::FireEffect(position, scale, intensity); osgParticle::ParticleEffect* smoke = new osgParticle::SmokeTrailEffect(position, scale, intensity); smoke->setUseLocalParticleSystem(false); fire->setUseLocalParticleSystem(false); /FINAL// rocketModel->addDrawable(fire->getParticleSystem()); rocketModel->addDrawable(smoke->getParticleSystem()); positioned->addChild(rocketModel); rocketPath->addChild(positioned); rocketPath->addChild(fire); rocketPath->addChild(smoke); root->addChild(rocketPath); viewer.setSceneData(root); return viewer.run(); } there is no problem with this, the fire and smoke effect follows the surface of sphere growing up direction. [Image: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/files/untitled_185.png ] here is my questions: 1) if i take the line Code: rocketModel->addDrawable(rocketDrawable); under the final section the fire and smoke trail effect's direction changes to down. is this a bug from osg? 2) why we had to add fire and smoke effects twice? shouldnt it enough to add these particle systems to rocket model and see "vuola! it moves with it!"? (i achieved to goal after several tries) 3) i also tried to wind these effects like in the example, i setwind with osg::Vec3 combinations but didn't work.? 4) i see very bad smoke effect unlike the example, i've tired optimiesed but didnt work. -- Read this topic online here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=45565#45565 Attachments: http://forum.openscenegraph.org//files/untitled_455.png ___ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org

Hi, I have a earth view loaded with map in my main scenegraph and have four widgets(windows) with each has their own camera. I mean this four window share one scenegraph. The problem is when i open this four widgets or three or two with different view distances (one is setted over zoom in one is setted over zoom out or zooming until to enable application loading different LODs) all views' maps are deteriorating and shaking just like changing between different LODs.
