[Flightgear-devel] Hi res KX-155 texture?
Just wondering if anyone has a high-resolution version of the KX-155 navcom radio texture? (the one from CVS is tiny) Thanks Dave Martin ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

(the one from CVS is tiny) When creating instrument textures I've used vector drawing programs with great success. One big advantage is that you can create arbitrary resolution raster images from your vector sources. I've used metapost, Adobe Illustrator and OpenOffice.org Draw. I export to .eps files and then import them in my favorite image editor (gimp), and select resolution. Metapost is great for scales, while I would use OpenOffice.org Draw for the KX-155. By now you should understand that I'm hinting that you should create the texture yourself ;-) Also creating it yourself ensures that you have complete legal control. -- Roy Vegard Ovesen ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Shots taken from inside a 3d cockpit don't show any external scenery. However, shots taken from outside (chase/tower) seem to work perfectly. If the viewing geometry is different for the inside cockpit view then the outside cockpit view then you will need to break the tile based rendering into separate parts for the inside and outside of cocpit and set up the viewing geometry appropriately for each If you select hi-res screen shot from the menu, that means the menu is active, and it is drawn on every tile (so if you are doing a 3x3 scheme, you would get 9 instances on the menu.) This is probably easier to figure out than my first problem, but for now you can turn off the menu, then telnet in and run the screen dump command remotely to work around this problem. I think you just have to hide the menu when first entering the hires-screen function.

Well I see this
property /sim/menubar/visibility/property
so I guess something like this should work
void fgHiResDump()
{
bool menu_vis = fgGetBool(/sim/menubar/visibility);
if (menu_vis)
fgSetBool(/sim/menubar/visibility,false);
existing code
fgSetBool(/sim/menubar/visibility,menu_vis);
}

What are layers and how are they implemented in OpenGL ? I don't claim to really know about OpenGL in general, but my Win32 OpenGL book talks about emulating layers/overlays by splitting up the depth buffer to create the illusion of different 'layers' - which could then still be 'addressed' separetely - which sounds to me still as if it could be used to separate the menubar from the rest of FG !? As I said: I really don't know about OpenGL in general, even though I seem to remember to have read that glut itself would support some function of the name 'glutestablishlayer or anything like that ? Probably you guys know more about that ;-) BTW: this was meant as an IDEA, and I believe the approach to simply disable/hide the menubar is easier, too :-) Maybe there's a FG plugin for photoshop I hadn't heard of before?

[Flightgear-devel] Hi - FGFS Noob
Hi all, I came across FlightGear a few weeks ago and have been putting some serious hours in. I'm a programmer by trade but like to turn my hand to 3D modelling and sound engineering. I've programmed a number of 3D games in my time from 1st person shooters to real-time tactical warship games. I've been looking for a project for a while now I'm interested in developing for FlightGear if you'll have me. I have the usual head full of ideas, a lil knowledge (dangerous) and a love of flying. I'm a Win32 user. Not as much experience with linux as I'd like. I have a linux router/server at home but thats as far as i've got. However, today I got FlightGear to compile using cygwin. It is a good day. I have a few Qs... 1. As i said i've got FGFS going on cygwin. Its great apart from it runs half the speed. I'm thinkin this is cygwin's doing. I have heard of compiling FG on MSVC. I hit a wall when i couldnt get SimGear going as there wasnt a project file. Everything else seemed to compile pretty well. Does anyone have a project file for compiling SimGear on VC or any tips on how best to go about the whole VC compile? Well actually thats about the only Q for the time bieng. Now it compiles i'm going to have a play! Regards, Mike ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

Some comments: 1) The escape key used to kill flightgear. It doesn't seem to work, now. I got this: No type specified for GUI object Widget exit does not contain a proper GUI definition 2) The panel takes up the whole screen. I don't know how to make see the panel and the outside view. It's not intuitive at all. The Shift-P option toggles, but the menu options don't seem to be helpful here, either. How do I fix this? Jon smime.p7s Description: application/pkcs7-signature
[Flightgear-devel] hi and a few questions
hi all,
i'm working on an overhead gps-like display to aid landings
(because i'm too lazy to bother with VOR, etc). so far, i've got a
graphical app that takes in lat/long/heading from FG's network io and
displays the heading, KSFO's runways, and a line from the current
location to KSFO.
this works reasonably well--i was able to land the 747 (which
seems to require you to line up about 5 miles out)--, and i'd like to
expand it a bit now so that you can dial in arbitrary airports, maybe
setup waypoints, and display the runways with more accuracy.
can anyone give me some advice on where to look to figure out
how to pull information about airports' runways out of FG's data
files? also, does anyone know of a reference regarding making
corrections for true north and calculating geodetics and distances
from lat/long ?
thanks,
rob
