UUMU coding Mesh

[gattico]

Is it possible and if so.  how would one change the mesh to show an eva person in a vessel?  For instance if you enter the
Lunar rover, it has a new mesh with the eva person.  And when you exit the vessel it shows no one.

It's possible but you must use the UMMU SDK and up to you to show or not the crew inside using Visibility flag of
Orbiter's SDK. In this case I think you can use te UMMU mesh with a copyright note in doc.

The (dead) project UCO & ABFO used this technique: (video)

Is the project dead?  It looked very good.  I will look at the UMMU SDK for it.  I can get the people in the vessel.  But What do I make visible.  
  I think I may need to edit the mesh to have bend legs,....


update:

 I saw this:
int      GetCrewTotalNumber();               // return total men aboard

But I have this:
int crewaboard=GetCrewTotalNumber();

I get this error:
.\BUGGY1.CPP(129) : error C3861: 'GetCrewTotalNumber': identifier not found


I think if the crewaboard is 1 then a mesh with 1 eva will be displayed?

sorry for going off topic but UCO is DEAD ? crap looks like I need to start making some meshes of cars for some one to code
for me

[gattico]

I think if i can figure this out then I will be able to add a eva person to your rover.

Cool and I am doing a few RL things at the moment so I have not added any thing to the 3d model of a plane but I might try
and finish the MK2 of the rover in the next week

hey, I got it.  


loads both the meshes,  one visible the main one the crew not visible.

SetMeshVisibilityMode (AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("BUGGY1")), MESHVIS_ALWAYS); //Main ship mesh
SetMeshVisibilityMode (AddMesh (oapiLoadMeshGlobal ("space1999manbug")), MESHVIS_NEVER);

if ((Crew.GetCrewTotalNumber()>0))SetMeshVisibilityMode( 1, MESHVIS_ALWAYS );
      else  SetMeshVisibilityMode( 1, MESHVIS_NEVER );


If the crew is greater than 0 make the crew man visible. else not visible.

Here are 2 vessels that now the eva person disappears when you exit.  Also the buggy will not drive unless someone is in it.


One has a Space 1999 eva mesh

Of course you must have UMMU installed.  The airlock for the buggy is always open.

I have in the past been able to use my mesh for a Ummu person by changing the UmmUsdk.h for that vessel

const char UmmuMeshUsed[NUMBER_OF_MMU_TYPE][25]={
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //passenger
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //captain
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //"astronaut",
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //"security",
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //"vip",
"ummu/LISUMMU",   //"Scientific",

I know that the LISUMMU is in the right directory Meshs\UmmU

But I can't get the Ummu guy to change.
