The transparency stuff is due to a switched off z test. I believe that the old plib version did so too. I know that problem. I am working on integrating the panel into the scenegraph. That will be beneficial anyway. Greetings Mathias - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Did not test the BO105 again after my data-update yesterday until your mail -and you are right, all blades are in the right position! One problem solved!

Georg Vollnhals schrieb: Hi Mathias: 1. Further investigations, new insights regarding the "FG-OSG black screen problem" - must be a terrain/ground problem, the a/c is located under the surface when one selects special airports. - found it out by using the UFO, it is located under the surface but if you go up to the ground-surface then you can see the normal 3D-scenery. As you can't go up with the normal Cessna you get this "black screen" because you stuck in the earth. - there are also missing ground tiles (white area, located between EDDF and Feldberg, see screenshot) and mismatching ground-tile boarders (see second screenshot, London scenery) 2. Therefore I forget about accusing the sceneries at the moment, all sceneries are displayed (nearly) the right way when the UFO is used and flies to the ground-surface 3. Just to complete all, one other little problem: 3D-billboard objects are not displayed right now (ie trees) 4. Hope this helps you a little with debugging The new screenshots: http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/OSGErr/fgfs-screen-0061.jpg http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/OSGErr/fgfs-screen-0092.jpg Regards Georg - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

I think your data and your flightgear source are not from the same date. Please update both from cvs and then it should work. Maik - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

If these feedbacks would come from several people it would be your turn to filter out what is the important message/information for you as we user don't know how far the implementation process has grown until now and what is still lacking. In general I was very surprised how far you have got in this short time and that much more is working as I expected before. >> 3.5 My home made new EDLA scenery does NOT work >> >> > Ok.

But I found out that the EDLA scenery is only one exampe of a lot of sceneries behaving the same. Not only 3D-objects-heavy ones like the Paris or London one but also the Hamburg scenery which has got only an overviewable number of 3D objects. But if you write that the ac3d loader has to be improved now then I think we should wait with further investigations about these sceneries until this task has been completed. > May be you can put that on any ftp/whatever server before sending a mail > bomb :) ? > No problem at all, next weekend could be a good time to do so. > >> 5.
