UMMU Ummu and VC

[gattispilot]

I have run into a odd meshing issue. Not sure why this does it so I can fix it.

But I have a vessel that is Ummu capable. When the number of crew is 1 it shows a mesh of the Ummu inside.

Ok. No problem. But if I eva and get back in both the main and VC mesh are seen.

SetMeshVisibilityMode (AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("2001POD2a")), MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //Main ship mesh
MAINVC = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("2001pod2avc"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (MAINVC, MESHVIS_VC);
BUG1 = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("PODUMMU"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUG1, MESHVIS_NEVER);
BUG2 = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("PODUMMU1"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUG2, MESHVIS_NEVER);

bool POD2001::clbkLoadVC(int id)
{
//VCHUDSPEC hud;
VCMFDSPEC mfd;

if((id>=0)&&(id<1)){
if(id==0){
SetCameraDefaultDirection(_V(0,0,1));
SetCameraOffset(_V(0,.6,-.6));
SetCameraShiftRange(_V(0,0,0.1),_V(-0.2,0,0),_V(0.2,0,0));
oapiVCSetNeighbours(-1,-1,-1,-1);

//hud.nmesh=1;
//hud.ngroup=116;
//hud.hudcnt=_V(0, 0, 0);
//hud.size=.25;
//oapiVCRegisterHUD(&hud);
mfd.ngroup=118;
mfd.nmesh=1;
oapiVCRegisterMFD(0,&mfd);
mfd.ngroup=119;
mfd.nmesh=1;
oapiVCRegisterMFD(1,&mfd);
}
}
return 1;
}

In the VC I just have the MFD's seen not the HUD

Can you post a picture?

Are you adding and deleting the meshes each time you EVA or are you simply changing thier visibility mode?

Clearmeshes (); might help if that is the problem. I call it under a mesh update function before adding meshes each time I want to make a change to what meshes my ship is displaying.

 

[gattispilot]

const char *p1MiscID = Crew.GetCrewMiscIdBySlotNumber(0);

if(Crew.GetCrewTotalNumber()==0){

SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG1, MESHVIS_NEVER ); 
SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG2, MESHVIS_NEVER ); 

}



if(Crew.GetCrewTotalNumber()==1){
   //show only correct mesh
if(!_strnicmp(p1MiscID,"201R",5))SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG1, MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //show VIP
if(!_strnicmp(p1MiscID,"201Y",5))SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG2, MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //show doc

}

Just changeS the visibility

left side Ummu inside. he exits and reenters. then the right side. If I press F8 it goes back to normal

That's your issue right there. You're basically copy/pasting multiple meshes on top of each other.

It's much more efficient to load them once and then change the visibility mode. Only delete a mesh if you have no intention of using it again. On stage separation for instance.

SetMeshVisibilityMode (AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("2001POD2a")), MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //Main ship mesh
MAINVC = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("2001pod2avc"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (MAINVC, MESHVIS_VC);
BUG1 = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("PODUMMU"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUG1, MESHVIS_NEVER);
BUG2 = AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("PODUMMU1"));
SetMeshVisibilityMode (BUG2, MESHVIS_NEVER);

and then I just change the visibilty

const char *p1MiscID = Crew.GetCrewMiscIdBySlotNumber(0);

if(Crew.GetCrewTotalNumber()==0){

SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG1, MESHVIS_NEVER ); 
SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG2, MESHVIS_NEVER ); 

}



if(Crew.GetCrewTotalNumber()==1){
   //show only correct mesh
if(!_strnicmp(p1MiscID,"201R",5))SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG1, MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //show VIP
if(!_strnicmp(p1MiscID,"201Y",5))SetMeshVisibilityMode( BUG2, MESHVIS_ALWAYS ); //show doc

}
