Please keep in mind, that we have a major update in the cvs (from plib to osg, the 3D-library), but most of this documentation is written for the old plib code (which still can be found in cvs: "cvs up -rPRE_OSG_PLIB_20061029" ). On top of the page you can find, how to compile the osg-version, but read the complete page first. > e) If I extract the contents of fgfs-win32-20061024.zip and > data.tar.gz to a different FlightGear directory than the one > setup by FGFS 0.9.10 can I copy the missing contents e.g. fgadmin > and the other programs in the /bin/win32 directory to the new > directory and have a fully working copy of FG? > There is a version check, that will fail if you use the 9.10 data directoriy.
