Back up with an upgraded machine - 2.8 Mhz P4, 512 Ram, Gforce 5200. I've rebuilt Cywin, and FGFS-CVS. I've just copied the latest version of the Spitfire from FGFS-0.9.4, where it was working, after a fashion, to FGFS-CVS. All the files. Now it won't fly, as David pointed out. Back to the drawing board! Regards Vivian _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
