need help with client coding

[Neil]

interesting code, but still doesnt much help, ill look threw it a little more thanks r00k0rz

[R00k]

Rich Whitehouse created a nifty lil radar in QuakeRoyale,
with a little tweaking could be converted to netQuake

might be usefull to ya..

While the radar is drawn client side, the server provides the entities that are shown on the radar, so for it to be useful the server mod/engine would have to be modified as well, ie
//cl_parse.c

			CL_ParseRadar(false);

that is an converted WolrdtoScreen from the quake 3 sdk.

int CG_WorldCoordToScreenCoordFloat( vec3_t worldCoord, FLOAT *XXX, FLOAT *YYY )
{
	int xcenter, ycenter;
	vec3_t local, transformed;
	vec3_t vfwd;
	vec3_t vright;
	vec3_t vup;
	float xzi;
	float yzi;

	xcenter = r_refdef.vrect.width / 2;
	ycenter = r_refdef.vrect.height / 2;

	AngleVectors (cl.viewangles , vfwd, vright, vup);

	VectorSubtract (worldCoord, r_refdef.vieworg, local);

	transformed[0] = DotProduct (local, vright);
	transformed[1] = DotProduct (local, vup);
	transformed[2] = DotProduct (local, vfwd);

	if (transformed[2] < 0.01)
	{
		return 0;
	}

	xzi = xcenter / transformed[2] * ( 90 / ( r_refdef.fov_x * 100.0f ) );
	yzi = ycenter / transformed[2] * ( 90 / ( r_refdef.fov_y * 100.0f ) );

	#define BOUND_VALUE( var, min, max ) if( ( var ) > ( max ) ) { ( var ) = ( max ); }; if( ( var ) < ( min ) ) { ( var ) =( min ); }

	BOUND_VALUE( *XXX, 0, 640 );
	BOUND_VALUE( *YYY, 0, 480 );

	*XXX = xcenter + xzi * transformed[0];
	*YYY = ycenter - yzi * transformed[1];

[Neil]

its in the quake3 SDK, i have a fully coded WorldToScreen ive finished but it doesnt properly convert im assuming its a problem with the r_refdef options ive used

[R00k]

i had the same idea as baker, the 1st thing came to mind was a radar.

get the azimuth, determine the distance, scale it, then render. but Z can be used in a 3d radar too . I havent used this sort of math in 20 years so im not shy, just forgot what it smells like BTW i searched the q3 source for WORLDTOSCREEN, none.

[Neil]

yes it converts 3d world origins to 2d x. y. locations

[Baker]

I don't even understand the question. You ought to ask stuff like that at Inside3d.

3d origin locations into 2d locations

x = x; y = y; z = 0 ?

[Neil]

here is what ive made so far didnt test but still looking for help

float WorldToScreen( vec3_t origin, float *ScreenX, float *ScreenY ) {
	float	xzi, yzi;
	vec3_t	local, transformed;
	vec3_t	forward, right, up;
	#define xcenter ( r_refdef.vrect.width / 2.f )
	#define ycenter ( r_refdef.vrect.height / 2.f )

	AngleToVector (cl.viewangles , forward, right, up);
	VectorSubtract( origin, r_refdef.vieworg, local );
	transformed[0] = DotProduct( local, right );
	transformed[1] = DotProduct( local, up );
	transformed[2] = DotProduct( local, forward );

	if( transformed[2] < 0.01f )
		return 0;

	xzi			= xcenter / transformed[2] * ( 90.0f / (r_refdef.fov_x *100 ));
	yzi			= ycenter / transformed[2] * ( 90.0f / (r_refdef.fov_y *100) );
	*ScreenX	= xcenter + ( xzi * transformed[0] );
	*ScreenY	= ycenter - ( yzi * transformed[1] );

	return 1;
}

[Neil]

Something along the lines of WorldToScreen for the q3 engine but for quake1?
r00k? baker? lord havoc?!?!?

[Neil]

just wondering if anyone had or knew of a way to convert quakes 3d origin locations into 2d locations, its for a project im working on any help would be great thanks.
