Hi Paul, to my way of thinking the resolution is not important. Pythagarus
is more important, the distance as seen in a birds-eye view as seen by FGSD
is not the distance of the terrain. Hence if you cut a material to a
birds-eye distance of say 10 what ever units it will be stretched to say
14

Hi,

When TerrorGear does the UV mapping calculations on the terrain polys it

Flat ground = standard resolution
More slope = higher resolution

Well yes but a half decent scenery engine using texture blending like the one

Hi all,
my reading of the situation;
a) No adjustment of the textures takes place at the moment for sloping
terrain...hence the "stretch" problem.
b) a "cylindrical" solution has been proposed(that I don't understand the
maths of) that may/will have an unacceptable performance hit.
c) x-plane an

Hi Curt,
I suppose I'm less sensitive to the abrupt change problem as most of the
scenery both face material and triangle edges show some form of abrupt
change due the the mountainous terrain that covers most of the country.
Personally I like the blending solution for edges although this still

I can make a joystick configuration file for my joystick, no problem. How

I thought, in 0.9.8, that there was a joysticks.xml file somewhere
