Tilt controls are not working Qt

[bhavin192]

After merge of #4515

Tilt controls in Qt for symbian are not working

@xsacha can you have a look

[bollu]

that is really interesting. Isn't accelerometer working right? (or is it something to do with the coefficitents?) @xsacha: could you try playing around with the values of maxX and maxY in NormalizeTilt() in the file UI/TiltEventProcessor.cpp on line number 47 ?.

Thanks!

[bhavin192]

I will try wait ..

[bollu]

I'll be back in ~1/2 an hour. Will check you response then :)

[bhavin192]

Added
#if defined (ANDROID) || (SYMBIAN32)

and tried different values (some large and some min. like 3,4 etc.) but no luck
maybe something different is causing this

still I am trying different values maybe find solution 😄

[bollu]

Thanks for the help!. try setting something like 100 or 200. Also, check your deadzone radius: is it set to 1.0 ? If it is, then no input will be received at all.

[bhavin192]

Will check tomorrow btw deadzone radius is less than 1.0

@bollu,
Also I have noticed that the Axis are not in the correct positions as in, I tilted my Android tablet down in Landscape mode, and the car or player moves Right, and Tilt up, car or player goes Left, using the Analogue Tilt function.

[KingPepper]

In Fact its the same with the Dpad Tilt function as well.

[bollu]

any updates?

[bhavin192]

Not checked yet
will do after ~3/4 hour

[bollu]

Also, @KingPepper: Could you check if the tilt controls were working before the merge? If so, then can use the previous code (I doubt it was though, unless I've made an oversight). If it doesn't work, then it'll need some more rewrite - we need to allow proper calibration which is a pain to implement.

@bollu

No luck. Tested from 100 and less
but I think the .cpp is not taking effect or something different is wrong

[bollu]

@bhavin192 you are recompiling right? :) I'm not sure how ppsspp handles accelerometer events from the qt side of things... I'd really like @xsacha to get involved in this since he's the resident at expert.

Does anyone else have problems on this?

[KingPepper]

@bollu,
Sorry about the delay in an answer, I was at work........
Yes it seems the axis have always been wrong even before the merge, didn't even realise. LOL.
Tested 0.9.6-172

[bhavin192]

@bollu

For sure , he will but not now after some days
btw I am just compiling

[bollu]

@KingPepper: Thanks for the info. This is a deeper problem in that case - I'll have to implement full-blown calibration. Wonder if @hrydgard has any ideas? There may be a way to easily extract axes data that I'm not aware of...

[xsacha]

Shouldn't require any special calibration.
It was working when I originally implemented it (when there was no calibration).

[bollu]

@bhavin192 any updates? I'm sorry, I'm able to get enough time to work on this :(

[bhavin192]

@bollu
My Qt stucks at error
printf was not declaired in it's scope I have tried to include headers but giving random errors
I think 8 is max value for both x and y

[xsacha]

You're trying to get 1.0 as maximum value, correct? The values reported by the APIs are always in meters per second. 9.8 is from gravity (when phone is facing in any direction), as it is an accelerometer. So you want x and y to be 9.8.

Added Symbian and Blackberry.

[bhavin192]

That's nice
gravity 9.8 as name suggest accelerometer

[KingPepper]

Remember guys, the axis's are not right still on the Android side of things, as I mentioned earlier.
IE.......If I tilt my Tablet down to towards me, in Landscape Mode (Default) ,the Analogue stick goes left rather than down, as it should, and Vice Versa.

[bhavin192]

@xsacha

Tilt is still not working

[xsacha]

I know. It isn't actual receiving any data. I just updated the scaling. From: BhavinSent: Thursday, 20 February 2014 1:38 PMTo: hrydgard/ppssppReply To: hrydgard/ppssppCc: xsachaSubject: Re: [ppsspp] Tilt controls are not working Qt (#4907)@xsacha
