iCelParameterBlock

How can I get parameters from a parameter block sent to SendMessage for mousex_centered axis events, parameters such as x offset from center, etc.?  I am getting segfaults when accessing the parameter block.

Thanks.

Show me the code that you're using. That would perhaps help find out what is wrong.

Here is the send message function.  Maybe what I am asking is how do I get the mouse event data from the various parameters passed into SendMessage?  I read the API and it says the parameter block will contain parameters passed, but params is always null:

Code:

    bool TerraBehavePlayer::SendMessage (csStringID msg_id,
                                         iCelPropertyClass* pc,
                                         celData& ret, iCelParameterBlock* params,
                                         va_list arg)
    {
        GetActorMove ();

        if(params)
            TerraDebug::terraDebugf("Got %d! parameters!\n", params->GetParameterCount());       
       
        if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_forward1)
            pcactormove->Forward (true);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_forward0)
            pcactormove->Forward (false);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_backward1)
            pcactormove->Backward (true);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_backward0)
            pcactormove->Backward (false);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_rotateleft1)
            pcactormove->RotateLeft (true);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_rotateleft0)
            pcactormove->RotateLeft (false);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_rotateright1)
            pcactormove->RotateRight (true);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_rotateright0)
            pcactormove->RotateRight (false);
           
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_strafeleft0)
            pcactormove->StrafeLeft (false);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_straferight0)
            pcactormove->StrafeRight (false);       
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_strafeleft1)
            pcactormove->StrafeLeft (true);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_straferight1)
            pcactormove->StrafeRight (true);
       
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_run0)
            pcactormove->Run (false);
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_run1)
            pcactormove->Run (true);
       
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_jump1)
            pcactormove->Jump();
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_cammode1)
            pcactormove->ToggleCameraMode ();
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_yaw)
        {

            TerraDebug::terraDebug("Mouse movement x...");
        }
        else if (msg_id == id_pccommandinput_pitch)
        {
           
            TerraDebug::terraDebug("Mouse movement y...");
        }
        else {
            TerraDebug::terraDebugf("%d\n", msg_id);
           
            return TerraBehaveCommon::SendMessage (msg_id, pc, ret, params, arg);;
        }
        return true;
    }

Thanks.

what does
printf("%s\n",msg_id);
at the top of your code do?

It depends on the message. For which message do you want to get the parameters?

This is old.  The celData reference had everything I needed.  Check out my mouselook post to see more genjix
