camera view showing movement but 3d view not. In x-plane no movement #89

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.start up ltrack
2.start camera view
3.switch to 3d view

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i expect to be able to 'look around' in 3d view, instead i am just looking 
forward. Same goes for when I use the plugin in X plane. I do see the lights of 
my track clip pro moving in camera view. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
.99.5 MacOs 10.10.2

Please provide any additional information below.
uninstalled, ditched prefs, reinstalled, same behaviour again. Don't know if I 
uninstalled everything, as I can't find an uninstall guide.

Hello,
you mention Track Clip (the metal thing with reflective stickers) - I assume 
you are using TrackIR with it (please correct me if I'm wrong)...

Please see, if the camera view is showing all three blobs (needed to compute 
the pose) and that each one of them have a white cross in it. If the blobs can 
be seen, and no white crosses, check the Min/Max blob settings - set min to say 
4 and max to 5000 or so and see if it helps to get the crosses.

Also check, that the IR Leds do turn on (assuming reflective Track Clip) - they 
glow dimly red. If they don't, then check the model type you selected.

If that doesn't help, please attach the log (button on the Misc pane).

Kind regards,

Michal

PS. Just out of curiosity, is there a reason you use version 0.99.5? There is 
the 0.99.11 available...

Hello Michal, thanks for your prompt reply!

I indeed use the track clip pro, the one with the lights.
Changing the blob settings did the trick. I can't recall me making a change
to them, but I could have done that by mistake. What I don't understand is
why ditching the preferences and reinstalling the program did not reset
those to the initial values. Did I miss something: where are these settings
stored?

I am using (or actually I was using) 0.99.5 because it is the most recent
version on this page: https://code.google.com/p/linux-track/downloads/list

apparently there is a more recent version 0.99.12 that I installed now.

thanks again!

Rogier

another question: is there a place where users share their profiles?

Hello,

the preferences are stored in ~/.config/linuxtrack directory; unfortunately to 
delete it (on Mac) you have to resort to the terminal (although I know there 
was a hack for Finder, which made it show hidden files/directories).

I'm glad the thing is working for you now...

As for the profiles, so far nobody asked for it, but I can setup a page, where 
I'll publish contributed profiles...

Kind regards,

Michal
