Erik Hofman wrote: Modified Files: radar_misc.rgb Log Message: Add support for a storm blib Excellent. As far as I know, civilian airliners carry radar that is capable only of detecting weather, not small things like aircraft. They also use a separate radar system for ground separation (the radar altimeter). For traffic, they use TCAS, which is equivalent to secondary surveillance radar (i.e. it detects other planes only if their transponders are on, and does not pick up primary targets). I'm sure that some of the very newest airliners can integrate all of this information into a single multifunction display, but for most of the existing fleet, I don't know if traffic and weather would appear on the same display or not. Can anyone chime in with concrete information? I'm sure that military combat aircraft must have radar with primary traffic capability, since the enemy is sometimes too inconsiderate to turn on the transponder.

Actually I like both versions. I just think that the yellow one got a bit boring already, and that the green one hides the lack of texture better. Once I've textured everything this won't be necessary, but changing colors will then also not be that easy any more. This was the last chance for some change. If more than one prefers the yellow bo105 (and the release date permits it) then I can change it back. It's just the difference between "make install" and "make install mil" for me. :-) BTW: planned are the following changes (probably, but not necessarily in this order) - finish position lights (top red in cvs; bottom red done here) - implement rotor disk and blend in at some rotational speed - interior: cyclic/collective, pilot, eventually medical config - external details (wire cutter, further antennas, ...) - texturing (no idea which livree; certainly not ADAC ;-) - more/custom instruments - bended blades(?) m. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

I think what you're remembering is the "Sky Hook" gadget that was developed but never installed on Royal Navy vessels. It was actually a full-service landing system, not just a refuelling boom. The idea was that the Harrier would come to a stable hover alongside the boat, and then be grabbed from above by the hook. It would then (carefully!) decrease thrust until it was just hanging there, and then be lowered onto the deck like cargo. I can't imagine this was very popular with the pilots.

> Does the R have a 40 deg flap detent? My understanding is that the 40 deg flap setting (over the whole family) is actually related to max gross weight. If you want the 40 deg then you will be limited to 2300 lb; if you make do with 30 deg ... you can have more. However, as the interior gets nicer, the avionics become more complete, you add long range tanks, a larger engine, retractable gear, etc etc ... you're adding empty weight, so that after a while 2300 lb is not enough.

Of course, we can certainly live without the feature on Mac - just be aware the fault lies with FG / PLIB for not providing an API that is somewhat important in real-world situations.

There's a suspicious comment in there: * WARNING, we need to make sure that the previous mode hasn't * already been freed by the video driver. What do we do in * that case? Should we call SDL_VideoInit() again? */ Would be nice if we could identify and fix the bug where it is, instead of removing a useful feature that is certainly *not* the bug. I'm going to restate the problem, just to be very clear. - When a window is resized, SDL (or GLUT) need to re-allocate the GL context. The SDL documentation explicitly mentions that SDL_SetVideoMode will be called again with new size, so a new context will definitely get created on the Mac. I'm putting aside any platform specific ways to modify existing contexts. - There is nothing (absolutely nothing) in the OpenGL spec about the sharing or lifetime of texture objects or displays lists across different contexts - logically they are completely separate. - The current FlightGear code assumes that display lists and textures are preserved across a context switch. - This has not been noticed for the past X years because it *so happens* that the Linux and stock Win32 implementations happen to implement the sharing behaviour between contexts, while OS-X does not. Both behaviours are completely valid and compliant implementations of the OpenGL spec. - Most (if I'm being bitchy, *good*) scene-graph / engine libraries have some kind of 'invalidate' button you can kick that makes them delete all their display lists / textures and reload them. This is what Unreal / Quake / etc are doing which you change full-screen-ness or many other graphics settings while they running, i.e a vid restart. - Making PLIB / FG support vid restarts would be a very good thing to do, but would be a lot of work and invasive. I would be happy to give it a go if I thought the patches would be accepted! - Until such a change is made, re-sizing the window is not going to work right on OS-X - We can live with this situation. But if there are any user bugs reported from Windows users with odd drivers about 'everything looking crazy after I resize the window', well, now you know :-) Regards, James -- They are laughing with me, not at me. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

I'm not saying the hole isn't annoying, I'm just saying that there is a bug because for some reason, the sim thinks you are > 10 meters AGL when you are sitting on the carrier deck. There is some ground intersection problem going on there. If the ground interesection was computed correctly, the system would think you are < 10 meters AGL and everything would work the way it is intended. I'd really like for this to get fixed the right way. When we slap on bandaids without fixing the underlying problems, we end up with a system that has a lot of bandaids on top of a rotting infrastructure. Similarly whenever we see a stray crash or segfault we should pursue it with our utmost agression and stamp those out right away. Anytime we leave these sorts of crashes and problems for later, we end up with a system full of unexpected, unexplained, impossible to debug crashes. That kind of software is an incredible pain to operate. In the past I had more time to defend against these things, right now I don't.

I don't usually touch such things, because I don't understand much of this. I did it anyway, because: - this change was already in cvs since a great while, and only had been reverted recently - the commit log of the reverting patch didn't explain why this was reverted; it was part of a completely different change and looked like an accident - I mentioned it in this message and got no reactions: http://mail.flightgear.org/pipermail/flightgear-devel/2005-October/039285.html not that this is necessarily an agreement, but together with the other two reasons I though it would be OK, and better than the whole, which I consider a show-stopper. I'd just hate to have this slip through the cracks, and when someone tries to land on an object that is 50.01 meters tall or more, they are going to get a hole again. We could just remove that check and leave the near clip plane in close all the time, but then our terrain rendering will really stink for anyone with a 16bit depth buffer ... Andy (via IRC) has also looked at the code and suggested that the whole 'if' case is probably not needed any more. I just tested it, and indeed, with only scene_nearplane = groundlevel_nearplane->getDoubleValue(); scene_farplane = 12.0f; the hole doesn't occur any more. I'll be doing some more tests. But I won't touch that code again without explicit OK from an expert. :-) Just know that with the near plane set close in, there isn't enough depth buffer resolution on 16 bit cards to properly draw the terrain. If you look at mountains in the distance, you get lots of odd z-buffer fighting. This is on 16 bit cards. If we don't care about 16 bit cards any more (that used to be our only option in the old voodoo-1/2/3 days) then we could remove that whole if statement. For what it's worth, my laptop can only run FlightGear acceptably in 16 bit mode so I'm slightly worried about the ramifications of this change. Ultimately we *really* need to fix the above ground level calculations. Somewhere since the last release, that got broke and it must get fixed. If that was fixed you wouldn't be seeing a hole in the carrier deck. (And the AGL computations in the rest of the sim would start working correctly again.)

If that was fixed you wouldn't be seeing a hole in the carrier deck. The bug was AFAIK there ever since we have helicopters. The same holes were on rooftops. Looking at the code (and only at the code) it looks more like a misunderstanding than a bug. What happens with the HUD is that it behaves like a normal instrument now (and not a perfect one) by that it specifies the AGL relative to the last known good elevation (the airport elevation). I assume it worked more like a radar that could precisely determine the AGL at the aircraft location. So what basically happens now is that at the (startup) airport the AGL would be reported correctly, but once the terrain elevation increases the reported AGL won't change (like in real life). Maybe we need a different naming for exact AGL (which is computed correctly BTW, but under a different name).

This sounds more like HAA (height above airport) or HAT (height above touchdown). Height AGL should be the current height above the ground directly below the aircraft.

Just because, as it was introduced the first time it was a workaround for something, at this time, hard to fix. At that time, the renderer had a different understanding of ground level than the gear code. I changed that at some time and removed the workaround. I thought that it was clear that it was a workaround, and I silently restored the old, more correct, behavour.

Hi, Oh, _that_ one is really nice. Although the heli is really very well thanks behaved (even with mouse any keyboard control I find it pretty easy to fly _and_land_)... The bo is a little bit different to most other helicopters. I don't say that this simulation is totally realistic, but it should be really quite similar to the original (as far as I can evaluate that). What still is missing is the aerodynamic of the fuselage and the effect of the downwash to the horizontal stab (which is also missing). Both make it a little bit more difficult. I have builded a file bell206like.xml, use this and see how difficult it is to fly a helicopter. (@curt, jim: could you please add these files to the cvs?) (or change (at the main rotor) relenflaphinge="0.0", delta=".4" weightperblade="55" to get al Jet Ranger like rotor (ok, it has still 4 blades, but its behavior is quite similar to the Jet Ranger)) Or at least remove the 'notorque="true" ' statements in the bo105.xml.

As far as I know, civilian airliners carry radar that is capable only of detecting weather, not small things like aircraft.

For traffic, they use TCAS, which is equivalent to secondary surveillance radar (i.e. it detects other planes only if their transponders are on, and does not pick up primary targets). I know that in Europe they recently added a requirement for collision detection after two civilian aircraft hit each other when the ATC had given inappropriate directions.

Erik ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel I might be thinking of a different incident, but my understanding is that both the German and Russian planes were equipped with TCAS, and both units functioned correctly alerting the German plane to descend and the Russian to climb. Unfortunately the Swiss controller made the mistake of ordering the Russian plane to descend, the Russian pilot made the mistake of following the verbal order when standard practice is to never override a TCAS warning. In addition the error was not caught because there were no backup controllers at the Swiss facility and a piece of equipment meant to catch such errors was down for repair. This reminds me of the concept of a "radar assisted collision", a relatively common occurrence in shipping that for many years actually made it more likely for two radar equipped ships to collide when passing then two non-equipped ships. Another case of adding incorrect data to correct data and causing a bad decision. Now what was that original topic again :?

In theory, yes. I haven't had a whole lot of time to test it yet, but the slow/windmilling propeller regime should be sane now. It would be nice to add stuff like a windmiling parameter to the configuration, so the user can tune it, but the ridiculous torques produces should be fixed. I honestly haven't had time to actually fly this thing yet. I wrote a little program to generate graphs of torque vs. RPM, which looked good though.

I should point out that the reason these were setup as "cout" was so that we wouldn't lose all output if someone compiled with the --without-logging option. Now that our default output is much less verbose, people are probably not compiling with this option so it's probably not a big deal ... but that was the reason we used cout's here. Curt.

So we'd need two config files for *every* joystick (with more than two axes)? That's IMHO not acceptable.
