OSC Packet format

2010-03-06T22:38:45-05:00

Dear community,
First of all, I would like to say the CCV 1.3 so awesome and smooth in performance than its prev. version. Great work guy

I am writing an AS2 client that is reading messages from the socket. Problem is since, CCV sends messages at a fixed rate to nnotify that it is alive ( ALIVE messages ), I wish to know the Message format for a touch interaction. Or basically, the message that is sent when the user touches the screen( single finger touch). I have read the documentation, and yet find it hard to understand. I would glad if someone pasted the message format here.

Thanks

Solved!! pictures fly around in Photo APP

2009-12-09T23:29:42-05:00

Hey guys.
I am trying to learn and write some MT Flash apps. Firstly, I tried to compile the svn version of photo.fla from touchlib. I can get the output swf file. But when I execute it, the pictures in the app will fly around some particular point even if I just clicked the mouse button. And if I use the touch simulator, the pictures cannot be scaled. And the move and rotate functions were not normal as well.

But the flv videos in the app works fine, they could be move, scaled or rotated by simulator.

This problems confused me for several days and cannnot get it work right. So, any suggestions?

Thanks very much!

Regards from weiyi.

Problem solved.
The ImageObject.as codes had some thing wrong. Here I uploaded a new file to replace it and everthing will work fine.

Lag when adding child movieclips

2010-03-06T08:45:31-05:00

Hello. After succesfully making a multitouch drawing application with low touch latency, I tried making something more sophisticated. I have some movieclips i add to the stage, with 3 other smaller movieclips in them by calling addChild(). The first thing I noticed was that the redrawing after dragging the main movieclip lagged enormously.

Then I tried doing exactly the same but replacing the touch drag by mouse drag. Still there is lag, but less (I guess this is because there r a lot more mouse events than the tuio event rate). Anyhow, there’s still a big difference when i take the children out opposed to children in. So this seems to be a Flash issue rather than a touch event rate issue (as the multitouch drawing app went fine). Increasing the framerate from 30 to 60 shows an even bigger difference in dragging movieclips with and without child movieclips.

I can’t be the first one facing this problem?

new in multitouch

2010-03-05T10:04:16-05:00

Hello, I make small multitouch device, with web cam and box. And it works, Now I want to make flash application to react on my movement. I have one project before where I make pinball game, and now I want that game to play on multitouch device. When you pres anywhere on right side of the screen, to play MCRightPadle ("gotoAndPlay(2);" in main movie), and if you press left side of the screen, MCLeftPadle to play frame 2.

Tuio Socket Not Found :(

2009-11-01T19:40:24-05:00

I have just finished my hardware setup of my 42” LLP Plasma. It is working really well in CCV, I am getting really good results in the calibration. I can run processing sketches fine but I cannot seem to get flash applications to run. I always get “Tuio Socket Not Found” in the top corner of my flash apps. I am using CCV and am running Flosc Gateway 2.0 (that was in the CCV package that i downloaded). I really want to get this solved soon so I can stop playing with the CCV calibration screen and instead test the screen on a fun application .

Touch And Hold solution?

2010-03-02T11:57:03-05:00

I am trying to display a menu by pressing your finger down for a breif period of time and then display a menu. The menu i have, the issue is the press and hold, i dont know what a good duration should be, and also i am having problems with the press and hold intefering with other objects.

For example, if i want to flip a picture around and show details of a picture, pressing my finger on the object would recognize as a touch for dragging or for some other gesture, so i dont know if this is the issue i am having, but the idea is that the pic can still be dragged and rotated and scaled, but i can still place my finger down on it for a longer duration and display a menu.

Does anyone know of anything that can help me with this?

I am using DSI and wondering if there is pressure capabilitiy or a way for CCV to distinguish to AS3 firmer press, maybe that would help, anyway just a shot in the dark.

Any help would be great

Thanks

new AS3 multitouch app launcher to be tested

2009-07-20T17:01:36-05:00

new multitouch app launcher to be tested

still in early stages

seems to run slow - comments please

apps included

physics
ripples
google maps
photo
paint
musical keys
puzzle

most of the apps are hard coded other than google maps and photo

google maps - this is an external swf so you can replace mine with your own so you dont suffer the ugly debug strings and can localise it on your own required world location

photos is a loaded swf as 1: i didn’t have the source for this version of photo and second so you can swap out my photos (opposed to the hard coded flicker version)

Test results and comments are welcome and wanted

tell me the problems

what dont you like

what do you like

is it slow cluncky

and bugs

ect…

Has anyone used OSC yet direct to Flash 10.1 and Air 2.0?

2010-01-01T13:22:48-05:00

Apparently Flash 10.1 and AIR 2.0 can now support direct TUIO OSC UDP without that weird conversion process. has anyone tried this out yet? what i needed in the flash apps to do this?

I have a table with Flash apps but i want the table to be able to also use the Windows 7 driver but i cannot do both since CCV makes u choose between OSC tuio UDP and tuio for flash which converts from UDP to TCP and then sent to the flash apps.

it would be nice to have the flash apps work off regular tuio feed.

Also if anyone has done this i was also wondering if they noticed improvements in performance. there is no conversion anymore so i am feeling its faster and i read the reports by adobe but would like to hear from the community for real world responses.
