FlyPT Mover

Agree, but making it json or xml, makes it slower, and I want to squeeze all we can. Well, it's still fast.
But for simplicity of use, a json (smaller than xml) string with the names used by DCS would be the way in my opinion.

Working on 2.9

Some previews with a setup for DiRT Rally 2
We can see the new CUBIC3 filter for traction loss working (around 10:00 minutes)



Many changes and many loose points yet.

Great video, explaining the process of adding filters so well.

When can we expect the v2.9.0? Kinda itchy to try the new cubic3 filter as yaw is terrible, jumping when going over 360 degrees...

Really good piece of software!!

Thanks

Excellent video! I'm excited.

Need some more days to go through all sources and correct some bugs.
Made some changes in received data, so I need to review most of the sources.
Still need to work on the FSX plugin to make it compatible with x64.
Running Mover in x64 is faster, specially in the interface updates, so I want to keep all on x64.

Hi,

If you just could consider a “smooth exit” from “out of pose” when this feature is checked ( stay in last possible pose ), I would be 1000x thankful

Cheers

Hello FlyPT,
First, your software is amazing... Once I'm done with building my rig, I'll be making a good donation.

I'd like to echo what @hexpod stated, but it could be I just don't know enough of your software on how to do this... ClearPath calls it "RAS" (Regressive Auto Spline)... Video LINK
• The idea is to smooth motion from exiting a poss and finishing a poss, and the transitions (changes is velocity/torque and/or direction).

Could you give examples on how to do this with your software? -- Or perhaps add it eventually to your software if it's not fully addressed yet?

Again, perhaps your software can already do something like this, and if so, please give a few examples. The test would be to put the servo on a table (sitting freely, not bolted down), run it through a few rapid scenarios without it bouncing around too badly... This would translation to easy on your rigs (especially if you have monitors that are attached, which causes a long moment arm, like the weight on the arm in the video).
______________
Best regards,
Mark

Attached are a few screenshots from the Video Link above...

I am on clearpath and I am combining both RAS about 40ms and Mover LPF.

If you want to “round” more the “entry curve”, you can put several LPF in cascade. Name for this is second order (two in a row) or third order (three LPF in a row)

Cheers

Hi @pmvcda

I am getting an error while trying to open FSX source for P3D

I there a specific additional manipulation to be done or it should open out of the box ?

Thanks

I don’t have the game installed, maybe that’s the problem.

@hexpod
FSX is not working...
Have feedback from others saying the same.
I made something on my old laptop for it to work, but I may have Alzheimer....
Good news is that I'm now working on a dll for FSX, that allows us to use Mover in 64 bits. And that one works, while my first iteration in managed code is not working on my new laptop...
Please wait for 2.9 to test FSX

Some of the new filters:



MALP = Median average of a specified number of samples
MAHP = High pass with median average
CUBIC = Cubic function of type: y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d
CUBIC3 = Cubic funcyion of type: y=ax^3
ROLLOVER = Roll inside a specified range
DIF = Diferential
INT = Integration

Might allow to play a bit more...

oops.... part of my image got misaligned, sorry.

This should be better...

Forget to mention the input...

Yes, I understood, that's something I also want to add and it's missing.

The best you can do now is this:



But the more you increase for exit smoothing, the more you loose in entry.

If you do, it should be a great value to many... In the mean time, I'm playing around with the LDYNLP filter to help reduce the initial acceleration...

Getting a little closer....

Hello,
Apparently we have angular rates coming from P3D



Waiting for native P3D support, what is the correct „game engine / mover“ setup to let through
3accels /3 angular velocities ?

I have strange values coming into Simtools MMF mover‘s module




What DOF1 column order has to be chosen to get the P3D velocities from Simtools extras, correctly mapped in mover ?

Thank you

Sorry for late reply,

The correct order is to use this in SimTools:
Axis1a = Sway
Axis2a=Surge
Axis3a=Heave
Axis4a=Yaw
Axis5a=Roll
Axis6a=Pitch

But you can also select in Mover the Simtools axis instead of accelerations/rotations.
So if you have sway in axis 5, in Mover select:


But in this lat example, the received values are scaled to a range -10 and 10, while in the first example they come in a range of -100 to 100 and angles are remapped to degrees.
Simply put, go with the first solution, the second one allows you to receive the extras in the b axis if you want to.
