I have fixed this widget. + +Fixed bugs: +- The turns and movements of the Octopussy are now performed truly independently of each other, as it should be in 6DOF. +- When cornering, there is no "gimbal lock" at Pitch = +/- 90 degrees. +- Fixed directions of axes of rotations and positions. Now the Octopus pose displays the actual direction of view on the plane. +- Fixed display of the back (green) surface of the Octopus. Previously, it was displayed mirrored. + +Additional features: +- Applied "perspective projection", the picture becomes more voluminous. +- Added lighting effect from above, with the same purpose. +- Added background fill for the widget. This makes it possible to see the borders of the widget. +- Added X and Y axes. This helps to estimate how far the Octopus is deviated from the center. +- Added [Mirror] checkbox, mirroring positions and rotations. It is often more convenient to observe the Octopussy's mirror pose. +- If before compilation in the file "pose-widget.hpp" include line 19: "#define TEST", then a rectangular frame will be drawn around the Octopus. This is useful when testing a pose-widget to assess distortion and size. + +The corrected pose-widget now displays the Octopus pose correctly and can be used to check OpenTrack settings, sometimes even without launching the flight simulator. + +A video of the corrected pose-widget is available here: + +https://youtu.be/my4_VOwGmq4 + +fixed by GO63-samara <go1@list.ru> <github.com/GO63-samara> 2020 |
