| The yaw drifts when you look up for one simple reason. The earth is round. Magnetic north is not directly north of you, it's north and DOWN.
For a long time I've been trying to figure out something to accomodate this, and I MAY have something that can do it. Not promising anything, but if you want this in your things just to mess with it, go ahead...
//DO NOT ZERO OUT THE VR920!!!
//The VR defaults to perfect calibration relative to the earth for yaw, and directly away from magnetic north for pitch.
var.angle = -26.5 /*Angle between you and the magnetic pole. This is if you were facing that direction exactly, looking forward, how far down it would be. I crudely got it from google maps.*/
/*I set 45 for how much it should change because it seemed to be correct. Mess with this if it's wrong, it could be a sensitivity thing.*/
debug = Vr920.yaw+(sin(vr920.pitch+var.angle)*sin(abs(vr920.yaw))*45) + ", " + vr920.pitch
If you wanna use continuousyaw for the tracking, don't change it in the equation. In fact, minus the first VR920.yaw in the line would make it an offset.
*EDIT* - IT WORKS! I did something wrong though. Here's the right equation
var.yawoffset = (sin(vr920.pitch-var.angle)*sin(vr920.yaw)*45)
Add that to the yaw for perfect tracking. However, it goes insane ABOVE the offset degrees.
*EDITEDIT* Fixed insaneness. Has some trouble around poles but works excellent otherwise.
Going to put up a script for everyone soon.
*EDITEDITEDIT*
Integrated the code into the improved crouch/mouselooking script I already put up. Enjoy! http://forums.vr920.com/Topic4679-8-1.aspx |

| Okay, need some help here, found my problem.
This finds what the adjustment should be as a result of what it actually is.
It needs to be the other way around.
Can someone good in calculus figure out Realyaw as a result of Badyaw? Here's the equation to convert
R = Actual yaw
B = VR920 (flawed) yaw
A = angle
P = pitch
B = (sin(P+A)sin(R)*45)+R |

| | Kay, got a friend to inverse it, I give up for now, I need to make a monitering program or something to determine the best equation... |
