 Great. Will you be committing a fix to fgdata, or do you need
 someone else to do that?

[Flightgear-devel] Release 2.6.0 git/fgdata aircraft maintenance

2012-01-10 Thread Eric van den Berg
On current Git the Mig-15 engine cannot be started. I routed the problem 
to a missing /engines/engine[]/out-of-fuel property that is there on 2.4.
Checking revealed this is the same for the c172p (not sure with what 
effect), but not for the A-10 or B1900D for instance.

Thanks,

Eric

Does the Mig-15 use YASim or JSBSim?

I made a change a couple of weeks ago which stopped loading the
(YASim-specific) Nasal/fuel.nas for non-YASim aircraft.

A side-effect of this is that the out-of-fuel property is no-longer created
for non-YASim aircraft.

I suspect the fix is to define the property for the Mig-15 in the -set.xml
file.

Is indeed JSBSIM and that did the trick. Engine running!

 Correct solution is probably to change the position of the sound source 
 for the left/right sound samples. Erik can probably give better hints.

True, sample groups that are tied to the listener still support a
relative position. So changing the sample to mono, positioning them and
use the same 'mixing' configuration should work.

There is something fundamentally flawed with stereo files anyhow; most
(especially the hardware) OpenAL implementations only support *one*
stereo source which isn't processed in 3d space in any way. Stereo files
also consume two sources (in this case two wasted sources) and with
hardware limits as low as 32 simultaneous sound some people run out of
sources real quick.

Hey I was under the impression I fixed the F-22 before committing ..
I'll fix it today.

2012-01-04 Thread Eric van den Berg
Thorsten,

I am not sure who the mig-15 maintainer (same as Vostok-1 problem?) is, 
but I think there will be a problem with this aircraft without stereo. 
The ADF produces a left/right audio signal to indicate the NDB 
direction. It looks like this is done by mixing two stereo files, one 
with a left track only and one with a right track only.

Not sure if any other aircraft have a similar feature.

Cheers,
Eric

 Hi,

 in preparation of the Release 2.6.0, two issues affecting Aircraft in
 fgdata will be fixed by a batch commit. Updates will be pushed to
 fgdata next week, so shortly before the 2.6.0 release branch is created.

 If you want to fix these issues for your aircraft yourself, you have to
 do it _now_ and push the update or merge request for your aircraft
 (before next Tuesday).

 * Issue #1 is stereo sound files. 98 aircraft are still affected by this
 issue - which is actually one more than when we discussed this in early

 sopwithCamel), however, two new aircraft with the issue were added

 All aircraft affected by the sound issue (as of today) are listed here:
 http://pastebin.com/PLe3jk9Y
 and the full list of affected files: http://pastebin.com/uLA1Sj2C

 * Issue #2 is the deprecated JSBSim properties egt_deg... (instead of
 egt-deg...). These have triggered automatic warnings for more than a
 year. The issue only remains for 7 aircraft - which will also be fixed
 next week:
 737NG600
 737NG700
 737NG800
 737NG900
 A380
 Lockheed-NF104
 fokker50
 (Use grep -r /egt_ fgdata/Aircraft to see the remaining occurrences).

I can't take care of individual issues. I'll just take care of 
converting files, since otherwise there will be no sound at all. Anyone 
interested in fixing issues for specific aircraft is welcome to place a 
merge request / submit a patch - especially for abandoned aircraft.
