yeah thanks for the kind help,
i compiled it using MSVC8, i did follow your instructions, Olaf, taken from your homepage.
The problem is: FG crashes every time I try to start it. By running the --log-level=debug option I found out that it quits at the point of "initializing scenery subsystem" giving out a standard MS Windows error message "FlightGear has experienced and problem and therefore had to be closed."
What could be the reason for it?
I compiled FG 0.9.10, using the dependencies precompiled from Olaf's website. I applied the patch given for the pLib files and SimGear compiled and linked well and quite easy without further problems.
I then had some problems while linking FlightGear with a bunch of errormessages but I finally managed to fix them by doing soem changes in the properties of MSVC8 (I m really new to this IDE). Is there a common problem when having installed FG with Cygwin and FG with MSVC on the same machine? Because I read something about this somewhere in the Net, saying that the openal .dll-files would cause problems in that case....
Any hints or thoughts about this?
Thank you for your help in here, it's really nice to have such decent people caring about you and helping you out!
Best,
Thomas

cygwin I/O is dead slow. Thats the price you pay for emulating a UNIX
style I/O system. You can accelerate by using MSVC8, for instance. It's
free, too.
