To generate photo realistic scenery? Or, for some other purpose?
Looks like the tower is on a different tile. This _was_ working. In main.cxx
the call to get the FDM's elevation in the main loop isn't working. For some
reason it is now referencing the scenery center for the view (the published
scenerycenter) instead of the tile center that is stored in the FGL
For various reasons I have had to reinstall my cygwin
environment over the last couple of days, and rebuild all the
parts of FlightGear.
I thought that it might be useful if I noted the problems I
had, so that they can either be addressed, or added to the FAQs.
I downloaded and installed Cygwin

Thanks, correct. Will be changed in the next version.

SimGear/FlightGear configure used to automatically add /usr/local/lib

I'm thinking about moving the radio code from src/Cockpit/ to
src/Instrumentation/ -- I chose the "instrumentation" name carefully
to cover both gauges and avionics. That move itself should be no big
deal.
A slightly bigger deal would be eliminating the /radios/ property-tree

For anyone who wants to play around with new instruments, Martin
Dressler is working on building a set of hi-res instruments that are
based on the Cessna 172-S. Here are pictures of the original panel

to let me sit in there unti

Now Slashdot will get to experience the FlightGear effect.
All the best,

Hey, congrats to everyone ... it looks like we are now officially
voted the best free simulation "game" that runs on Linux. As Dora[1]
would say, "Good voting". :-)

I needed a 15 minute break, so ...
I just committed a quicky perl script demo to
$fgsrc/scripts/perl/autopilot/flyplan.pl. It's a hack and really
needs to be enhanced a bit more, but it shows how you can remotely
manipulate the autopilot and radio settings, as well as monitor flight
progress (usi
When I tried to ident 3U (a local NDB), I realized that FlightGear did
not support numerals in Morse identifiers -- I just kept hearing "U
... U ... U". That's fixed now in the current CVS.
Just out of curiosity, do no U.S. navaids have digits in their
identifiers, not even local NDB beacons?
