[Flightgear-devel] bug with base version checking
Hi,
for quite a long time now there was a change in version name for
development version (git from gitorious' main branch of FlightGear)
which follow the scheme development __DATE__.
I haven't found yet how it is done from git for fgdata as the file
http://gitorious.org/fg/fgdata/blobs/master/version contains 2.7.0 these
days, but my local clone is development May 18 2012, for today git
pull. I had a look in my .git/hooks files and just found nothing.
BTW FlightGear's code check for version following the scheme
#define FLIGHTGEAR_VERSION development __DATE__
(from src/Include/version.h:10), which I don't want to discuss here,
but, if the version continue to follow this scheme, it should be nice to
change the reading code for $FG_ROOT/version file, in
$FG_SOURCE/src/Main/fg_init.cxx, too.
I've made the change myself some monthes ago on my local clone, thinking
that someone would change it for real :), but it is not the case.
The change is very simple, at least from my point of view, and shouldn't
have any side-effect, but as I'm not a C++ guru I maybe miss something,
here it is:
--- a/src/Main/fg_init.cxx
+++ b/src/Main/fg_init.cxx
@@ -144,7 +144,7 @@ string fgBasePackageVersion() {
}
string version;
-in version;
+getline(in, version);
return version;
}
Without this change, the value of the string version is always and only
development, so it never match the version created at compilation time
from src/Include/version.h.
Maybe I miss something trivial here, or I'm the only one facing this
behaviour. If it is the case, please let me know how I can get correct
behaviour. I'haven't found anything relevant from fg forums, nor
mailing-list.
Best regards.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] ZKV1000 buildmaps.pl on Windows 7
Hi Allan, I think I got the clue for the confused images, can you give ./buildmaps.pl a new try? https://gitorious.org/zakharov/zkv1000/blobs/master/Systems/buildmaps.pl the mismatching tiles effect was due to already existing tiles. Thanks for your report. Regards seb Le 13/09/2011 20:38, Alan Teeder a ecrit : I am trying to integrate a moving map display into my TSR2 project cockpit and decided that a stripped down version of the ZKV1000 code would be a starting point. ZK1000 derives its maps from the Atlas maps using the above perl script. After a fight I got it to run using the command line perl buildmaps.pl c:\flightgear\atlasmaps. snip 3. The program then ran, but the images are confused. An example is at http://v-twin.dynip.sapo.pt/alan/VickersAircaft/TSR2/maps/e000n51.png showing London and the Thames estuary. The image is split into 3 vertical bands. 4. No documentation, so reverse engineering was needed to do everything. That seems to be the norm on FG ;-( , so I can´t complain about that. I am using Windows7, 64 bits, and recent versions of Active Perl and ImageMagick. Finally a question, where is the origin point of each Atlas and ZKV1000 tile image?

[Flightgear-devel] segfault with last GIT
Hi all, I'm used to compile OSG/svn, SG/git and FG/git on a debian sid system using gcc version 4.4.5 (Debian 4.4.5-7). I'm facing a segfault problem for two days now (but I couldn't test before for more than one week). I've tried different solutions as put away ~/.fgfs/autosave.xml, then ~/.fgfs, then ~/.fgfsrc, the problem still persists. I've completly cleaned the compilation trees, and compile again, same problem. Note that the compilation process just go straight (with some warnings). so I've created some logs, hoping they could help: strace ./scripts/fgfs-cvs/install/bin/fgfs fgfs.strace 21 - http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/fgfs.strace [7.8M] fgfs --log-level=debug fgfslog.debug 21 - http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/fgfslog.debug [996k] fgfs --log-level=bulk fgfslog.bulk 21 - http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/fgfslog.bulk [1.3M] ~/.fgfsrc is available at http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/fgfsrc The today list of devel packages installed on my system is available at http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/dev-packages.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] right mouse click with pick animation
Hi, indeed my patch doesn't offer a solution as it has a bad side-effect... I forgot to mention that the problem is not limited to the right button, but to *all* buttons. And it is quite annoying when you see that buttons 3 and 4 (mouswheel) are unusuable. The list of aircrafts and instruments using these buttons is impressive, with many aircrafts included in the usual released base-package: a little `grep -rlI 'button3' $FG_ROOT/Aircraft` should show you many many lines. seb Sébastien MARQUE a écrit : I couldn't find the cause in simgear/scene/model/animation.cxx because the solution is in $FG_SRC/src/Input/FGMouseInput.cxx :).

Yep, agreed, it's an obvious thing to support. And easy to do, as well!
Off-topic is there anyway in Nasal to find the ILS frequencies and optionally
the name, for a particular airport and runway?
Yes, the airportinfo function returns you a Nasal hash with all this and more.
Also, although it's not exposed in the current GPS GUI dialog, when you search
for an airport, the GPS scratch data contains the runways, including ILS
frequencies, headings and names. You can see them in the property browser.

Hi James, I'm sure this is not a problem with the gps code but only with the zkv500 code, because it manages itself the route (it has its own route manager), so the gps code just can't use leg as it doesn't know the entry point of the leg. I'm working on it, transferring the route management to the gps code. I hope to get a full working zkv500 gps in the next week. I've got an suggestion for the gps code: a command nearest-coord (or better name) which would give nearest navaid for arbitrary coordinates, given by scratch/longitude-deg and scratch/latitude-deg. It will allow to implement a simple navaid-to-navaid flight-plan in a FG session. I tried already months ago, but I can't get it to work properly. best regards seb ps: thanks to Alexis to have committed this patch.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] ZKV500 GPS instrument; (New?) GPS code bug
Hi,
sorry for being absent these last days. the zkv500 is now repaired (see
attached patch) at least for turnpoint mode. I'm quite sure there will
have problem some problems with route management, I haven't tested yet,
but I'll do this week-end.
I've also fixed the screen refresh frequency, which is now more regular.
if someone can commit this patch, I'll be thankfull.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] ZKV500 GPS instrument; (New?) GPS code bug
Hi, Thank you for reporting, I haven't had a look into the zkv500 for a long time but I'm going to look what is going wrong, sorry for inconvenience. best regards seb Victhor Foster a écrit : I'm pretty sure that this bug happened to me before. If the GPS is set to OBS mode, changing the course as to make the CDI needle center causes the autopilot to follow north, while leaving it at the default setting (north) causes the AP to follow the correct course. Is it supposed to happen? It works normally while on leg mode. BTW, what is DTO mode for? I see it on the GPS dialog, but I don't know how that mode works. Also, I would like to tell the developer of the ZKV500 GPS instrument (listed in the manual as Sébastien MARQUE) that it isn't working as it should anymore. Perhaps it was the GPS code update, or the user :) I have a few bookmarks on the turnpoint screen, but pressing the start or the enter button does nothing. -- Come build with us!

[Flightgear-devel] ./compile: another all-in-one compilation script
Hi all, making noise is not my intention, so sorry in advance if it is the case. As I saw at least two dedicated scripts for compiling FlightGear these last days, I'd take few minutes to expose my own one ;). Indeed it exists and is released for something like more than two years. I think it is an interesting one as it allows a lot of flexibility and the compilation of not only FlightGear related programs, but quite every programs. here it is: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/bash/compile.tgz ./compile is a bash script which actually offers kind of API (function and variables) to ease the download/update, compilation and installation steps. The compilation and installation do not touch the system (no need of root rights), neither the user environment. I created it after some use of the excellent fgfs-builder makefile, from which it takes the concepts of project and products. A project is a directory in which co-exist one or more products. A product is a set of rules for download and compilation, generally for a single application. Products generally have multiple flavours available (i.e. dev, testing and stable). Products' rules are written in a collection of files that can be found in compile.d directory. It has many features. Some of the most interesting ones are: - auto-update of the script when new version is available (and user have write rights on it) - separates sources directories, build directories and install directories. - allows fine tune of what has to be updated and what has to be compiled (permanently or using command-line) - jails project in only one directory (remove a project is as easy as $ rm -fr projectdir) - splits configuration, warnings and errors messages in different log files - allows sharing parts of a project in an other project (useful to share base or libs) - with-only-one-finger and all-automatic concepts - patch management (adding, storing, removing) - manages git/cvs/svn/hg, zipped, gzipped and bzipped archives - manages autogen-configure-make, cmake, bootstrap, scons and jam systems, but other systems can be used in product rules (as for FGCOM) - easy command-line syntax - possibility to override products rules by your own ones - talks in a lovely sh..ty English :p - easily handles different versions of a single application (separated in different project for now but I'm working on it, also see list-projects option) It does not manage dependancies (only some checks in order to know if a used application is installed and available as cmake, svn, ...), and it is not intented for user that don't know how to compile on Linux system (but I know some people already using it without any knowledge about how-to-compile :D). If you want to give it a try, here are some explanations: - the first argument of the script *must* be the absolute path or the relative path to `pwd' of the project directory. Exceptions made for list, list-projects and help|--help|-h options. - the creation of a project is done the first time using the bareword create - off course, the defaults products are OSG/svn, PLIB/svn, SG/cvs, FG/cvs, FGbase/cvs (and recently FGRUN/cvs) :D - the project directory contains 4 subdirs and some launch scripts: - sources: where the source code of each product takes place - build: the dir used for the build (it contains hard links of the sources subdir) - install: where compiled applications are installed (bin, include, lib, share) - config: where the logs are stored, and patches too. classified by product. You can also find a project_name.conf file in which are stored the products of this project. Tip: here you can use - before the product name to permanently avoid compilation of the product, + to permanently avoid source update for the product, and # to permanently skip the product. For a first try: $ ./compile my_try create will create a project in `pwd`/my_try containing the default products as described above. There is a problem here as I've never found the way to avoid the CVS password entry by hand (I've tried all I could do with pipes and redirections without any success :/) then $ ./compile my_try will update and compile every product alone (or continue an aborted compilation). to add a product: $ ./compile my_try add=product1(,product2,..) to apply the script only for a (some) product(s): $ ./compile my_try only=product1(,product2,...) to skip a (some) product(s): $ ./compile my_try skip=product1(,product2,...) these two last only work if the product(s) is (are) already downloaded. You can also use $ ./compile list to get a list of available products and $ ./compile help for a succint help On my system, I use it that way: the script is in my user space, symbolic-linked in /usr/local/sbin, and the directory compile.d is symbolic-linked in /usr/local/share allowing then to use compile instead of ./compile. I use it quite daily for FG (for sure ;)), OpenTTD and Warzone2100, but every

Re: [Flightgear-devel] an idea about dialog-apply command (was: Patch for random system failures)
Hi Melchior, you can find the patch with, I hope, the correct improvement you asked. I wanted to add that I really agree your point of view: To make listeners work as expected the solution is to make *listeners* work as expected, not to change dialog-apply in a way that makes them not work as expected.. Be sure that I'll be aware and will recall you of this change if one day we run into problems, and no-one remembers about it before ;) thanks for the interest you had about my suggestion. Now I'm going to continue my tries about failures scenarii. I think I've got some nice ideas about it to make them generic but adaptable (using xml) and improving flight experience. I'll expose you them later as it needs more thinking, and a lot more work. :D best regards seb Melchior FRANZ wrote : * Sébastien MARQUE -- 2/20/2009 1:23 AM: This is not new, it was the case with the precedent gui dialog, and I used a Nasal workaround but not really useful as it disallows to come back to a previous state.

That's one of the reasons why I hesitate when someone asks for a change to make his first(?) dialog work. :-P But anyway. I withdraw my objection and don't mind if someone commits this patch with one improvement: the node value shall not be read twice! That's not so much because of the saved nanoseconds, but mostly because of --trace-read (and style). dialog-apply does then no longer mean copy widget data to the tree, but sync tree with the internal widget state. (dialog-update does still mean *copy*, though ... which is another reason why I'm not thrilled by the change. One more inconsistency to remember ...)

Re: [Flightgear-devel] an idea about dialog-apply command
Hi Csaba and Melchior,
oops, sorry, I've made a mistake attaching the failures.nas script, but
please believe me that I've first tried
setlistener(f ~ /serviceable, failure[f], 0, 0);
in order to behave as written in setlistener doc (wiki and globals.nas).
I've just write back to correct listeners args (0 ,0), and unapply patch
but here is the result, I only unchecked Airspeed Indicator, in
Instrument Failures dialog, then use the Apply button:
airspeed indicator failure
altimeter failure
turn indicator failure
slip-skid ball failure
heading indicator failure
vertical speed indicator failure
which is not correct. With the small patch applied, correct listeners
args (0, 0) and unchecking Airspeed Indicator again:
airspeed indicator failure
which is correct. I think that it wasn't discovered before (was it?)
because nobody has put several listeners on several properties contained
in one single dialog, or maybe it has no effects (tests on property
value as I've done myself before searching to modify dialog-apply?). I
don't think that the dialog is broken, but for me the dialog-appply
command is.
Reading the code about dialog-apply fgcommand I've seen that every
object-name is copied in dialog.cxx, FGDialog::applyValues
for (unsigned int i = 0; i _propertyObjects.size(); i++) {
const string name = _propertyObjects[i]-name;
if (objectName name != objectName)
continue;
copy_from_pui(_propertyObjects[i]-object,
_propertyObjects[i]-node);
}
independantly of changes, so I thought that it was maybe the reason for
listeners to be fire up.
best regards

Whoops. Of course, I meant:
setlistener(f ~ /serviceable, failure[f], 0, 0);
The meaning of the first optional argument is:
0 ... just attach (default)
1 ... attach and run initially
and that of the second is:
0 ... trigger on change only
1 ... trigger on writing -- independent of value (default)
2 ... trigger on writing to node or children, as well
as addition and removal of children
BTW: We might decide at some point that we only want to dialog-apply
if values changed, but this needs more consideration, and one broken
dialog isn't enough reason to convince me. ;-)
BTW2: dialog-{apply,update} should handle an arbitrary number
of object-name, not just one.

Yes, I will be obliged to check the value to avoid the instrument fix in some cases. But as I discover this problem I wanted to try a solution for every dialog-apply, to make the listeners work as expected, for future uses, not only the failures system I'm trying to write. If the fix is rejected, that's not a problem for me, but I think we let a problem that can go out again some day... regards seb Csaba Halász a écrit : On Sat, Feb 21, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Melchior FRANZ mfr...@aon.at wrote: setlistener(f ~ /serviceable, failure[f], 0, 0); 0 ... trigger on change only As I wrote in my other email, this doesn't work as expected. The listener is triggered initially even if the property doesn't change. Sébastien, I think your listeners should check the value of the property. It might very well happen that a failed instrument is later fixed, can't it? So the listeners would get triggered again and you'd have to differentiate between failure and fixing.

[Flightgear-devel] an idea about dialog-apply command (was: Patch for random system failures)
Hi all,
I'm still trying to get failures implemented specifically for one
aircraft (before finding a better way for global solution). I've got a
problem with the dialogs instrument-failures.xml and
system-failures.xml, using the check boxes.
Indeed, it seems like the dialog-apply command changes every single
property linked to a checkbox causing the listeners set on these
properties to be triggered even if the property hadn't be changed by the
user. The result is that all instruments or systems which have a
listener are triggered, and obviously fail all instruments and systems
in my case.
This is not new, it was the case with the precedent gui dialog, and I
used a Nasal workaround but not really useful as it disallows to come
back to a previous state. So maybe it is time to check this out directly
in FG sources, and find a solution for dialog-apply command.
I had a look in $FGSRC/src/GUI/dialog.cxx.
We could do something like the following in copy_from_pui (line 430)
...
switch (node-getType()) {
case SGPropertyNode::BOOL:
case SGPropertyNode::INT:
case SGPropertyNode::LONG:
+++ if (object-getIntegerValue() != node-getIntegerValue())
node-setIntValue(object-getIntegerValue());
break;
case SGPropertyNode::FLOAT:
case SGPropertyNode::DOUBLE:
+++ if (object-getFloatValue() != node-getFloatValue())
node-setFloatValue(object-getFloatValue());
break;
...
copy_from_pui is called from FGDialog::applyValues, itself called from
do_dialog_apply (in Main/fg_commands.cxx).
I don't know if this sounds like an acceptable trick, and if it could
cause side effects. But maybe it could solve the problem of multiple
properties modified, triggering listeners which not have to. What do you
think about this?
btw, using MTBF works fine (as Nasal code changes only the wanted
property) and is a nice tool ;)
hope I've been understandable :)
best regards
seb

Re: [Flightgear-devel] an idea about dialog-apply command (was: Patch for random system failures)
Hi Csaba, actually I already use a listener that only fires then the value really change. I've looked in Nasal scripting wiki page and globals.nas to be sure, and tried the other possible values for the fourth argument of setlistener, with no more succes, that's why I looked in FG sources. If changes in sources can't be applied or don't have the expected effects I've got an other workaround, but it is quite an ugly one. regards seb Csaba Halász wrote : On Fri, Feb 20, 2009 at 1:23 AM, Sébastien MARQUE seb.mar...@free.fr wrote: Indeed, it seems like the dialog-apply command changes every single property linked to a checkbox causing the listeners set on these properties to be triggered even if the property hadn't be changed by the user.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] gps?
Hi, There is a gps in CVS: $FGROOT/Aircraft/Instruments-3d/zkv500, I mean an instrument which looks like a gps for a non-pilot, not-advised user :). This instrument manages routes, looks for airports, saves waypoints (bookmarks), creates routes, give several infos about wind, etc. It uses the /position/*, /environment/* properties and properties from the hard-coded kln89. It is a 5 lines LCD display with retrolight for nigh use, the manual is included in CVS for installation and use. Indeed it is surely not a real gps as trained pilots are used to see and use in aircraft but it could be useful for people wanting to include a gps in their cockpit. I'm as aware as I can about kln89/gps changes in the code, and I will make it compliant with the new system when it will be availble. For now it works quite correctly... but, again, it is still a toy for advanced pilots. Moreover the Nasal code is a bit ugly, but it uses all my skills about :p... best regards seb syd adams a écrit : I had planned to switch the B1900D over to use that , since my nasal KLN90B is nothing more than a display of the current gps properties but waiting to see whats happening with the KLN89.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Patch for random system failures
Hi Stuart, I'm actually trying to implement failures onto a fork of the Lionceau. http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/apm20.tgz (--aircraft=apm20, the official Lionceau needs to be installed) For now it doesn't create random or calculated failures, but manage manual failures (the intention is to create failures via an external application or distant instructor). As you've mentionned it looks through .+/serviceable props to know if an instrument fails. I'm sure I'm not clever enough to invent powder, but I've tried a way to manage failures in a transparent way for the pilots using alias/unalias Nasal capacities. Indeed every instrument in the panel is the reflect of a property aliased to the real data as given by the fdm. When a instrument fails, I unalias the property and manage the output calculation with some Nasal code, if necessary (i.e. when the output needs to vary even if the instrument fails, or gives a wrong information even if the system works fine: levels/temps/pressures). This part is still to be done... indeed it is in an early devel stage. I'm also going to try the system too with the rudder, elevator and ailerons properties, it means that the fdm config files need to be modified to use the aliased prop rather than the usual /controls/flight/* ones. This should allow to unalias the props and even if the pilot try to make the controls act, it doesn't have the pilot's expected effect on fdm. BTW in the same fork I've implemented an engine failure when it is used in a non-proper way (more than 5 min full throttle, engine damages calculation above 90% throttle, soon will come oil temp and cht temp, following engine and flight manuals descriptions, see limitations.nas). In order to stop the engine in a more realistic manner I use the /engines/engine/out-of-fuel prop allowing engine coughs for a certain amount of time before being complety off without using magnetos (I find ugly to see the magneto switch moving alone in a cokpit :p). For brakes I also use my own implementation of controls.applyBrakes (see actions.nas) which is a kind of failure system to avoid the aircraft to slow down too quickly and is intented to be improved in order to manage wet surfaces and brakes failures. That said, I don't know the cpu cost of using many aliases. I've got a question about your script: what do mean MTBF and MCBF, and what is the purpose of JAM failure? Last point: I think I've found a possible mistake in static system failure with airspeed indicator: indeed I though that with blocked statics (dirty or forgotten flames) and pitot working fine, the indicated airspeed is higher than real airspeed, but actually it seems not to be the case. Indeed the ASI gives some relatively high speed near the ground but falls down to zero quite quickly when climbing, then goes back to a high value at 0ft/mn climbing... I'm maybe complety wrong and the simulated behaviour is correct. best regards seb PS: I found very nice to have a closer look in failures management because this is one of the few dangers we have and can simulate, keeping the fun-side of FG and improving pilot-skills entertainment. Stuart Buchanan a ecrit : Hi All, Those of you with long memories may remember some random failure work that John Denker and I worked on a while ago. For various reasons, this never made it into CVS. Recently, on the FG forum, erobo raised interest in this again, and came up with failure manager with some nice functions. I've spent some time reconciling the two approaches, using the MTBF and MCBF features of John's work, and erobo's idea of an overall manager. The result is available here: http://www.nanjika.co.uk/flightgear/failures.tar.gz I've done a fair bit of testing on JSBSim aircraft, and a little testing on YASim. Obviously, the instrument failure modes depend on the appropriate instrument respecting the serviceable flag. Note also that failing the ailerons/elevators/rudder currently marks them as read-only, resulting in various warning messages to the console. I think that Melchior is still looking at an appropriate solution to this. I have identified the following further areas for development, if anyone is interested: 1) The engine failure model is very basic - effectively failing the engine off by switching off the magnetos and setting the cutoff. It might be interesting to model a stuck throttle/mixture/prop in the same way that the ailerons/elevators/rudder are currently modeled. 2) Additional, aircraft-specific failures can be added at runtime to failures.breakHash. However, I don't currently have a way that these can be automagically added to the dialogs. 3) Currently, the correct number of engines is determined in a somewhat haphazard manner. We should probably do the same for features such as landing gear and speedbrakes. I believe the current patch is ready for review and inclusion in
[Flightgear-devel] initfile.xml file created with jsbsim aircraft
Hi all, I've just noticed that at least these jsbsim aircrafts create a file named initfile.xml, inside the directory I use to launch FG. Here is the file content: ?xml version=1.0? initialize name=reset00 ubody unit=FT/SEC 0 /ubody vbody unit=FT/SEC 0 /vbody wbody unit=FT/SEC 0 /wbody phi unit=DEG 0 /phi theta unit=DEG -0 /theta psi unit=DEG 0 /psi longitude unit=DEG 0 /longitude latitude unit=DEG 0 /latitude altitude unit=FT 0 /altitude /initialize that is not so disturbing as long as I don't have an important file already named initfile.xml in the directory I use to launch FG :p, but it is surprising to see that FG can write everywhere. When I try to launch FG from /etc (with no write permissions) I've got the following message in terminal: Could not open and/or write the state to the initial conditions file: initfile.xml, and FG continues gently.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] airliner ditching miracle ... or not
Hi all, I'm not a RL pilot, but I suppose that piloting in real life is hard because most of the time nothing special happens. Then the concentration is hard to maintain to a high level and in case of emergency follow the procedures (aircraft/flying aeras), adapt to the environment (buildings, trees, hills, mountains, weather...), know how to use the aircraft now limited, perfectly understand forces applied to aircraft, the whole thing without any drop of sweat on the forehead, needs a lot of experience. As far as I know, FG *is taking* the good direction because it is free to adapt to each situation quite easily. Indeed I'm trying to introduce some failures in a specific aircraft: - give the instruments the possibility to give wrong information (especially IAS) - fuel loss - unefficient brakes - burning engine - electrical system failure and as many problems as a non-pilot can imagine, and an non-developper can code using tools provided by FG (property tree, aliases, nasal, I/O capacities). Actually better than including the failures in the aircraft, I put them in a perl script, acting seperatly from FG, and sending to the last (randomly or not) signals to create the failure (using telnet, a local nasal script decodes messages sent by the perl script and applies the changes). The goal is to allow a instructor to put a student into some difficult situations, but the student doesn't know when it fails and what is failing. Writing this mail, I improve (I think I improve :p) the idea making it act as a server, then clients using it allow to modify their property tree remotely... The biggest lack of FG is, I think, the force-feedback. my two cents best regards seb John Denker a ecrit : Hi Folks -- === I mention this on the FlightGear list because simulators (in general) play an important role in pilot training (in general). Heretofore FlightGear has not played much of a role in real pilot training, but it has the potential to do so. I reckon virtually everyone on this list would like it to go in that direction. The question is, who is willing to do the work necessary to take it in that direction? This requires a certain amount of forward thinking. As the saying goes, you do not build a bridge based on the number of people who drove across the river _before_ the bridge was built. By that criterion, no bridges would ever get built. By the same token you shouldn't judge the value of FGFS features based on the current user community. Right now the user community consists of folks who care about nice-looking liveries and nice-looking foliage, because that's what FlightGear provides. Folks who care about cockpit instruments that actually work properly have to go elsewhere. The community I'm talking about is not small. The last time I checked, there were 700,000 rated pilots in the US alone. Practically all of them have PCs. There is a need for simulator-based training that is not being met by the multimillion dollar simulators at FlightSafey Inc. and suchlike. It is not yet being met by FlightGear ... but that could change. So, how about it?

[Flightgear-devel] Nasal class for GPS instruments
Hi all, I've written a nasal class to simulate GPS calculation. you can find the script here: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/gps.nas I'm aware it is maybe not as well-written as other .nas scripts found in $FGROOT/Nasal :p, but I think it could be interresting to put it in CVS for further development (for this, it is possible to remove the first lines concerning GPL, and maybe the 2 demos included), and to allow some aircraft mainteners and instruments creators to create gps in their aircraft. I've chosen this solution more than route manager because it is (at least for me) more easier to create a gps instrument from this class. I've created 2 demos instruments, they are included in the script, you can find them at the end of file: - gps.demo.show(): this one pop-up a dialog with some lines depending of the used mode (off, to, free and track). it is possible to enter parameters for the gps (coordinates, speed, course, altitude). - gps.demo2.show(file): this one allows you to follow a route, imported from a xml file (example around lfbt (france): http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/route-example.xml). For now the route file is searched from FGHOME directory, waiting for a better place. It shows how the gpsDevice class manages the route. Here is an other script in perl http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/perl/flightplan (ex ./plandevol-eng*) that can create route file suitable with gps: ./flightplan -d ksfo -a knid -wpt=KSFO-KNID.xml I let the creator of instruments chose their own way to select correct route file for their device if they allow route management for it.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Approach ATC ideas: using real SID/STARs in FlightGear?
hi all, Torsten Dreyer a écrit : In real life, pilots (and ATC) uses terminal procedures of each airport when approaching or departing. Example for KSFO: http://flightaware.com/resources/airport/KSFO#terminalprocedures What about adding real SID/STAR procedures to FG? This will make flying and communicating with ATC in FG more realistic. Not necessarily. When there is a radar service - and most airports I know do have a radar service - there are published procedures but they are usually not used because the approach controller guides you to the final approach by assigning the pilot individual headings, so called radar vectors. But there are three problems (as i understand this): 1. Where to find the database of SID/STAR of *all* airports? They are published in the AIP of the airports country. You can find the relevant AIP for europe at http://www.ead.eurocontrol.int/ and they change every now and then. For a flightplan-like script I made, I use the ones for GoodWay Xplane (http://www.xpgoodway.com/), I asked for the use of these files to the devs of GoodWay and they accepted without any problem (including that my script is GPLed and intented (;)) to be used by anyone), you may contact them again to ask. Using them I found that they include some waypoints unknown by our own fix.dat, so I decided in my script just to ignore them. The syntax is similar to nav and fix.dat we already use. Some details have been explained by Alexis to me, but it is quite easy to understand. 2. Database will be large. So we will have another big file in FG distibutive, such as nav.dat.gz, awy.dat.gz, etc. This means that FG will get more time to start and will use more memory (?). Yes it will be large. It should be an optional feature to load. Indeed it is not so large, as many aiports are not included I think, but there are still many. 3. Copyrights and law. Is it ok to use this type of data in FG? Won't we have law problems with other authors?

Indeed, the rules are quite simple: you have to follow a route, as best as you can, not only the fastest as possible, but in an certain amount of time (depending of aircraft you use). I wrote a little script in perl intented to be the contest director, and to count bonus and malus (given in seconds). Creating a route, and the rules (scale, check points, duration, etc.) is rather simple and made by a conf file. I have some routes (created by Pierre Geoffroy), but haven't taken the time to create the rallye, btw if someone is interested in managing such an event, here is the script: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/check_logs (perl) and here a conf example: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/waypoints it is feeded by the fgms log files. hope someone will find this interesting enough to continue what I haven't succeeded in, by a lack of time (most common excuse I know ;)). best regards seb ps: I have to modify a little bit the script in order to allow entering the beginning and ending date of the event in the conf file. If you've got questions about the script I'll be very pleased to answer as quick as I can. Stuart Buchanan a écrit : --- Hans Fugal wrote: Sounds like fun was had by all.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Informal version number poll
Hi, I'm not a developer, but I can see from the time I began to use FG the great work that have been done. My thought is that instead of the only use of numbers to count the FG versions, maybe this could be named using great historic aviators names like Guynemer, Yeager, Mermoz, St-Exupery, Red Baron (he already gave his name to a game though), etc. and so many I don't know but maybe you know, and more moderns, or not only pilots but aeronautical related (inventors, ingeeners, etc.). I think it would be nice to see a release named FG Lindbergh (or any ather name) for the version 0.9.1x, or 1.x.x. But what about the right to use this names? No single idea... Also, I think that it is not because FG is not entirely finished, and has reach all of its goals (which are increasing everyday) you couldn't release a version. Indeed when I start computing I used FS *4* which maybe used all the capacities of my old 8086 8MHz with 640Ko of RAM, so I understand why they had to change the version number as a top-level related to machines capabilities, but for now there is not a program which use 100% of capacities of our moderns computers (as far as I know...), so the version number is not linked with machines limitations especially with FG (maybe it's not true for MSFS ;-), I don't know, I don't use it for many years...). And to finish, I think that making more releases preserve the idea for end-users that FG is not a dead-project as sometimes it can be specified or implied on some games sites... (even if I know that FG is not a game, or not *only* a game and many organisations/universities can use it with other goal than having fun with (and that's one of the reasons making me think that FG is really a GREAT opensource project) Here are my two cents.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] 'setUpdateVisitor' doesn't exist anymore in OSG?
thank you gh.robin for your lights, but, you have to understand that I'm not camplaining, just reporting a fact and telling the solutions I've tried to solve the problem, in the hope to help or avoid future problems. As far as I know, FG is Open-source, OSG is open-source, and I am open-minded. If you want to stay close-minded that's your choice, we already discussed this point on an other place. I think... no, I'm sure that I'm free to use OSG/SVN linked to FG/CVS and that I can live with the problems encountered by dynamic and still in development softwares. If you only like stable softwares and librairies, that's your choice too, and I never tried to change your mind about. So please, gh.robin, don't tell me anymore that I have to do to satisfy your way of thinking all the best Seb gh.robin a écrit : On Sat 11 August 2007 14:45, gh.robin wrote: On Sat 11 August 2007 11:08, Sébastien MARQUE wrote: Hi all, just willing to say you that OSG/SVN doesn't seem to have anymore the member 'setUpdateVisitor' in class osgViewer::Scene, which is needed at least the first time during compilation in renderer.cxx at line 396.

[Flightgear-devel] the use of osgPlugins in FG
Hi all, maybe I want to talk about already well-known stuff, anyway I don't remember having red this on the list, so... yesterday a very creative FG 3D plane models (helijah) showed me the md2 3D file format. This format is able to make the object moving standalone. He sent me a test file (it is a goblin) and I watched it using osgviewer. It was amazing to see the model moving itself. so I tried to incorporate it in a FG scenery, and wouah, wonderfull, I could see the goblin moving in the scenery too ;) I don't know anything about the md2 format but it is binary format (non-readable ascii as .ac format), I don't know if it is an open format, but it opens multiple possibilities as moving trees and cows, flags, etc. that could populate the FG world Here http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/md2, you could find 2 snapshots of the 3D model showing the movement, and the two files for the models (tris.md2 and skin.bmp). I placed the tris.md2 model editing by hand the stg file so it is not really correctly placed, I had to take the snaps from under the ground, and unfortunatly the skinning doesn't work (neither using osgviewer directly) the full scenery has been created for an organized meeting which took place one month ago in LFBT. you can find a tarball containaing all scenery here: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/flightgear/lfbt/meeting.tar.gz (included the goblin). btw, the whole scenery with objects will be improved in the next days before being released in the John Stockill's database (we need to make some changes, particulary low-poly aircrafts populating the tarmac) and it's not related but I get, as it as been reported before in this list, impressive frame rates for my little 3D card (nvidia GeForce4 Go 420 with 32MB VRAM, linux nvidia drivers 0.9736, on a debian unstable system, athlon-xp), with the yesterday night svn and cvs compile of osg/sg/fg (using freeglut) best regards seb - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Flightgear-devel] for modellers: script for checking sanity
hi all,
I just made a little perl script for sanity check of pathes used in xml
files for aircrafts. I've done it to find out what's wrong when fgfs
reports failure to open a file at launch.
it must be used from the FGROOT directory.
usage:
tests.pl [relative] aircraft
where:
relative is an option for checking relative path, if not given the
default is absolute path (this option must be first). Indeed absolute
pathes are relative from FGROOT.
aircraft is the aircraft name, as used with the fgfs's option --aircraft
if someone find it usefull...
regards.

[Flightgear-devel] take off on a mono-propeller plane with a very simple joystick
hi all, taking off the mono-propeller planes with a simple joystick (e.g. SideWinder) is very hard because of the propeller torque. you are obliged to play with keyboard, and it is not very confortable, not to say it is inefficient. I changed my own Input/Joysticks/Microsoft/sidewinder.xml to correct it this way (admitting that /gear/gear[0] is the nose wheel): axis n=0 descRudder, only on ground/desc binding condition property/gear/gear/wow/property /condition commandproperty-scale/command property/controls/flight/rudder/property squared type=booltrue/squared /binding descAileron/desc binding condition not property/gear/gear/wow/property /not /condition commandproperty-scale/command property/controls/flight/aileron/property squared type=booltrue/squared /binding /axis this allows to use the joystick as pedals on the ground, it is nicer when rolling and rotating, and usefull as you don't quit the runway in an too much acrobatic way ;) I can't make a simple diff, cause I change many other things in this file to fit my needs. If someone find it useful for simple-joystick users, maybe he could commit it. MTC seb (MP name: zakh) - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

I needed then to create some nasal functions using globals, and sending the nearest nav (I don't remember if it is already implemented although): FGNavList* apt = globals-get_airports(); FGNavList* rwy = globals-get_runways(); FGNavList* nav = globals-get_navlist(); FGNavList* dme = globals-get_dmelist(); I quickly stopped because of my poor C++ skills, and I'm not so familiar with FG sources ;) here's my humble idea. hope it is understandable and this helps a little... regards seb [note of a lazy man ;)] if you are interested by implementing the flightplan too, which is quite near that you want to do, you can find my script, in Perl, here: http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/perl/dev/plandevol-eng-dev (I haven't touched it for a while...). the algo is rather simple [/note of a lazy man ;)] Douglas Campos a écrit : I'm interested in implementing it. Case: I'm flying near some airport that i don't know, then I use the GPS Instrument Setting dialog to find a near airport. How can I make a query about the navaids near this airport? Any ideas/suggestions? Cheers Douglas - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Flightgear-devel] script for building flight plans like
hello, i've written perl script to build flight plans in fgfs http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/perl/plandevol-eng the goal was to make a very light single file appli to give enough informations to go from a point to another following a route composed by navaids. it includes the sid and star procedures with the good files installed (the xpgoodway.com team let us the use of them) in $FGROOT/Navaids/, the correction for slave deviation of NAV, can write the route in a file usable by --flight-plan option of fgfs, use $FGROOT environnement variable, and different things like that (./plandevol-eng --help for help). It doesn't care about fuel consumption, ete/eta, either wind correction. I worked as I could to translate it in english but maybe some of you will consider my english as sh... ;) ok this is a point. an other point is that I submitted this script in the AVSim/FlightGear forum and i've been asked to translate it from perl to nasal, to be used directly in the fgfs frontend. as i am very new in nasal, i'm trying to learn all functions yet implemented in nasal from fgfs sources. but it will take a while (as i'm not a programmer too), so if anybody is ok to help, it would be with great pleasure ;) yet another point! i've made this other script to help me in the choice of the airport to reach. indeed it shows the airports which are on a circle around my aircraft (in this script, comments are only in french, sorry): http://seb.marque.free.fr/fichiers/scripts/perl/ballade maybe it could be cool to implement this in nasal too. all of these scripts are under gpl license off course. bye seb --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
