That was my problem. I placed this file in my $FGROOT/data directory. 
(Maybe this would be the better place for that? For no other extension I 
had to install any data in the home directory. And the home directory is 
not within the cvs-tree.)

Thank you very much and best regards,
Maik

[Flightgear-devel] Scenery pager Compilation error

2008-02-10 Thread Durk Talsma
Hi all,

I'm getting the following compilation error, using today's cvs version of OSG, 
SimGear, and FlightGear. Any clue as to what might be going on?

Cheers,

CVS of OSG? They changed to SVN a long time ago. That could possibly be the 
problem?

No, SVN for OSG and CVS for FlightGear/SimGear is what I meant to say.

[Flightgear-devel] Flying over an island

2008-02-10 Thread LeeE
Hi all,

Finally remembered to raise this:)

I don't know exactly when it started happening but for a couple of 
months now I've noticed that, regardless of where I'm flying, I 
always seem to be flying over an island of about 12nm radius and 
surrounded by sea/ocean.

I don't think the problem is anything to do with tile loading but 
with clipping in the renderer.  As I fly forwards (yes, in some 
tests against very high winds I occasionally fly backwards) I can 
see the terrain smoothly appearing at the ~12nm boundary - this is 
especially noticeable in hilly or mountainous regions.

I had a look for suitable parameters in the property tree but didn't 
find anything so I'm guessing that there's a hard-coded limit 
somewhere.  Anyone else seeing this problem?

If there is a hard-coded limit for this then it's much too low.  
Twenty+ mile visibility at ground level isn't uncommon - people are 
often able to see across the English Channel (22 miles) and higher 
Mountains and peaks are often visible at much greater distances.

Hi,


Not your specific problem, but I noticed the problem
with the visibility- I fly with real weather, but the
visibility doesen't match to the weather outside my
appartement. Seems to be there a hard coded limit of
11- 12 miles with real weather.

Another thing is, when I increase the visibility
manually I noticed with the last OSG-version that
there is a white surface in the sky - the blue sky
disapears, no stars.

I have started to learn FG, SG and OSG programmation...

Since severals months, I use FG (nickname : Nicklas with pa24-250) ;
Now, I want to try bring my help to project.

Hi,

this is looking great - did you add this to the
Aircraft or is this hardcoded?

Now the working wipers on the DHC6 makes sense! ;-)

It seems to mee, that METAR is not used correctly.
METAR ssems alright to me, if in RL the visibility is
under 11nm, ti is in FGFS too. But above 11nm - FGFS
can't show this

Is your problem due to the fetched METAR visibility being incorrect 
or is the fetched METAR data correct but not being used correctly?

When you increase the visibility manually do you see any terrain 
that is further away than ~12nm?

I see the white sky problem too.  I've noticed that once I get above 
~8000ft asl the sky, starting at the corners of the screen become 
white.  As I continue climbing it looks as though the sky has been 
reduced to a single polygon and if I bank and turn the poly appears 
to rotate.  Actually, I think the poly doesn't change it's 
alignment - the apparent rotation being due to the change in 
heading.

I thought it might be possible that the white sky problem is related 
to the terrain clipping problem, so I was going to see the outcome 
of that before I raised the white sky issue:)

Right- it is better I should apply hail insurance for
the EC135 and buy a good snow shovel and deicer for
the future!

Here you go :)

As a side effect, we could get rid of the ugly code that makes
"Terrain." out of "Terrain" at the expense of some more xml.

I attached a patch against Syd's new materials.xml as well.

Did I read right? That meand the thae lakes, Rivers

We discussed this on IRC- but it seemed not really
possible ( to me)

Hi  Csaba,

after applying your patches, recompiling and starting FG with
--season=winter I get some strange effects regarding the trees.
It seems as if the both crossing planes are not fitting - so I get a 2-D
display (and it seems to  me the proportions of the trees are not right,
they look rather strange, very high but small).
I am not sure the problem is only on my side, therefore I made some
screenshots so that you can see what I mean:

(click on the preview picture(s) to get the big ones)
http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/WinterTrees/

Apart from this, the improvement of the seasonal effects is enhancing
the FlightGear world one more step. Thank you for this work.

Regards
Georg EDDW

I really hope Stuart, Syd and Tim already know how thankful I am for
their work :-)
It is really thrilling for me how many of my secret wishes now are
getting reality - landing lights, populated landscape (better autogen,
trees, seasonal effects), rain (and snow???), particle effects, etc.

But now back to your patches and my problems. Although it is in the
middle of the night I could not but do some further tests (.. and
because I do not have to work today :-) ).

When I start FG with no season argument, there is a strange display and
I cannot see any tree:

http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/NoSeason/

Trying with --season=summer als seems to be ok, the surface textures are
normal and the trees look not only "normal" but very nice:

http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/SummerTrees/

So my conclusion is after applying your patches:

-- you have to start FG with the "--season=summer" argument to have a
normal summer display
-- if you start FG without a "--season=..." argument there is a
partially strange display regarding the ground textures and with no
trees visible
-- starting FG with "--season=winter" shows corrupted trees (see my
earlier eMail).

Is there anyone out there who also has tested Csaba's work and can
confirm / not confirm my observations?

Regards
Georg

Hi Georg , the tree problem is because I created a set of 8 instead of 4 trees 
per texture for the 
coniferous trees , and the originally commented out parts of the material.xml 
file probably still have 
4
If you change that to 8 everything should be 
fine ... I'm also adding winter textures that were missing from the 
Terrain.winter folder but that's a bit more work , so it will take a while ...
I'm still getting a few strange things here but still testing ... 
Cheers

[Flightgear-devel] forum troubles...

2008-02-10 Thread Yurik V. Nikiforoff

I have account at www.flightgear.org/forums since may 2007. I don't write 
messages at all. Today, I attempt to log-in, and my login/passwd was 
rejected. It's say - my account was locked.

I can't find emai of administrators/moderators on forum, and personal messages 
was disabled for this board, so I can't describe my trouble and get any help.

Is anybody of administrators read this list? Please, send me your email or any 
contact links.

Sorry for offtopic.
