--------------------------------------- WorldView Version 2.0.0 - July 2007 Copyright Seeing Machines 2007 --------------------------------------- About This Release ------------------ This is the v2.0.0 release of WorldView. WorldView is a tool for viewing faceLAB binary logfile data and network streams in conjunction with world model files. It allows you to play back data that faceLAB has recorded, as well as receive live data over a network connection. Summary of Improvements Version 2.0.0 ------------------------------------- * Added recording functionality. Data can now be logged by WorldView to a binary file, or over the network by pressing the Record button. * Added "Stream Mode" selection, for quickly setting whether WorldView is receiving and logging real-time or accurate data. * Added world model intersections. WorldView independently calculates World-item intersections using the source data and the currently loaded world model file. This allows for re-recording of faceLAB data with a different world model file to the one originally used. Screen intersections are left unchanged from their original values * Windows shell integration. Double-clicking a .fll file in Windows Explorer causes WorldView to launch automatically and begin playing back the file. * Full-screen mode to view the 3D world display at maximum size. * Options dialog for configuring recording and display options. These options are saved when WorldView exits and restored the next time it is run. * Improved the accuracy of the 'playback speed'. * Added Experiment Time label to the playback controls window. * Cleaned up menu items to conform to standard Windows layout. * Fixed "Next/Previous Keyframe skips to wrong frame" [SP#640] * Fixed "Deadlock when clicking 'Forward One Frame' during playback [SP#637] * Fixed "Playback after skipping keyframes starts from beginning of file" [SP#783] * Fixed "Crash when loading an invalid logfile" [SP#749] * Numerous user interface improvements and fixes. Known Issues ------------ * WorldView cannot load files directly from a read-only medium such as a CD-ROM. A workaround is to copy the files to the local hard drive and read them from there.
