Document VR manipulators #349
Comments
As well as regular manipulators in my opinion. (documentation) |
Indeed! I have not forgotten about it! Related bugs: #286 |
@tngreene I emailed you but it may have gotten lost...I attempted a drag rotate and got a pretty weird error...maybe I'm just confused: Rotation dataref values for the Drag Rotate manipulator attached to GearHandle_A_Front are not in ascending or descending order. I'm not sure what order is not ascending or descending? So yeah, there's some docs in the gitbook, but it's missing the example blend file and doesn't really explain the requirements for each manip very well. |
Hi @lehthanis , Its under the section "Further Reading>Example Blend Files". |
If it doesn't work for you, here it is again. |
To describe more about "not in ascending or descending order", this is an example keyframe table that should trigger this:
As you can see, the sequence of Dataref values (0, 5, 1) is not ordered properly. Does that make sense? How are you trying to animate manipulator? And, what parts of the guide do you think are lacking or hard to understand? |
I'll try the download again. I think there may be a problem then because My gear handle has two rotation keyframes, on frame zero the X axis rotation is 10 degrees, and on frame 100 the X rotation is -20 degrees...that's a 30 degree rotation range from handle down in frame zero and up in frame 100. |
@tngreene still struggling with this one error... you can see in the image there's only two keyframes...any thoughts? |
That's a very good picture. Could you post another picture of the second frame? |
@tngreene yup, will do, should I open a new issue first? |
@tngreene just in case: here's the other frame: https://imgur.com/7M5lSXh |
@lehthanis You've found an actual bug! Thank you! Fortunately it is an easy bug. Moving this conversation #367 |
@tngreene YAY! I'm actually useful! |
@tngreene going through the examples, I didn't see anything that covered manipulations like yokes or flight sticks in Vr. Also how are those green boxes supposed to be done? A good example would be the throttle manipulator for the cirrus jet. Or the center throttle grabber for dual throttles ?How do we make that non rendering but draggable geometry? |
Here's an issue with gitbooks! The current link to the example gets mangled by some browsers. For instance, (./content/example_vr_manipulator_types.zip) gets turned into (./content/content/content/example_vr_manipulator_types.zip) Basically no one can use that link. Hence I'm uploading the latest version in this issue, because github's links DO work for people and stick around! This hopefully isn't a permanent solution. Maybe they'll fix their stuff. |
Who wants a good tutorial on Axis Detent Ranges? Everybody! What a .blend file we've got. (Now referenced in the manual!) axis_detent_range_tutorial.zip |
Good enough for now! |
VR manipulators need good documentation on how to construct them! See #314 for more details
