[Flightgear-devel] Data logging - IEEE 1451 standard
The IEEE smart sensor standard is currently being updated from the previous release, including the networked sensor array stuff that is intended for the likes of Boeing when performing flight testing. It occurs to me that the people who are interested in monitoring the FDM behavior (i.e. the JSB team) and/or the simulation operations (i.e. the property and network support team) might want to be involved. I can see benefits in having the simulator be accessible using the same network tools as are used to monitor real aircraft and factories, because it lets us use the same data logging and analysis software. http://ieee1451.nist.gov/ and probably follow the links for ".3" to learn more about their approach. The websites are out of date. There is an annual show, held in Anaheim California last year and will be Detroit Michigan June this year, http://www.sensorsexpo.com/ which has a free presentation area where 1451 stuff is shown off. Showing off the simultaneous logging of real sensors and simulation output demonstrates the power of 1451 and is a free plug for FGFS. I don't know where they're planning to hold the 2005 event tho. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
[Flightgear-devel] Seg fault in nasal
I have found the bug leading to a seg fault that I reported previously (on the flightgear-users list). Though this is on an ia64, the bug is not completely architecture dependant. In misc.c in simgear/nasal in the function naNum add the line r.ref.reftag = ~NASAL_REFTAG; ahead of the line r.num = num; For several architectures, reftag does not overlay num and needs to be explicitly set.

At the moment it's only partly realistic, because the fuel can't be managed correctly yet. I've modelled the pylons as vertical stabilisers and the droptanks as weights. Separation looks OK from the cockpit view, and reasonable from external views, provided that the aircraft is straight and level. I note that when full fuel tanks are jettisoned, there isn't much sign of nearly a ton being released from the aircraft. I was looking for at least a flick from the accelerometer. Does it happen too fast for the instrument to pick it up? There is a detectable, but small, trim change as I would expect.

It works for me on Fedora Core 1. Try adding a: #include At the top of panel.cxx and see if this fixes your problem; this is the header that the autoconf stuff uses to detect the truncf function. The panel.hxx header uses , which might not export exactly the same symbol set in all cases (maybe...). If that works, we can either replace the C++ header with the C one, or re-write the autoconf test to use instead.

It's not an optimal solution, but not that bad either: Save as .3ds and use utils/Modeller/3dconvert to convert to .ac. If you write a simple Makefile, you can do conversion and postprocessing of the .ac file (adjusting emission etc.) quite easily.

> I Do you use emissive color for your light ? In the .ac file, it is > in the Material line, after the emis keyword. In3dsMAX (I export the model in the ASE format, supported by PLIB) there's an selflighting ("autoilluminazione" in Italian) field that has the same meaning as emissive color, I think. In 3dsMAX there are four fields, ambient, diffuse, specular and selflighting (emissive?). I've made several attempts with differents values for each field but in FlightGear the light remains dark in the night. Maybe the ASE format it's not fully supported by FlightGear? I can't use AC3D format because 3dsMAX and AC3D are incompatible (there isn't a plugin that exports the scene in a format supprted by AC3D). Luca PS: there's a way to add other lights in FlightGear? I need a light poited to the instruments (they are 3D models) during the night.
