Either internally or as an external driver? Although, ..would an external flight model be easier for you? It can then network with FlightGear both from the same box and from another. > I must admit that I have been having too much fun flying and using > flightgear and not enough time looking at the code :-) > > Plib networking also looks attractive.

(more or less clueless coder-wannabe looking for a light weight alternative to OpenGL video for FlightGear ;-)) Can your video code be set up to read flight simulation over the network?

Scenarios always come in sets of three: best case, worst case, and just in case. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
