I tried slaving a while back, but other commitments stopped the dabbling. In the reasearch I had set up the "slave socket" as another native protocol with a high frame rate of 30, and the multiplayer at frame rate ten.
Would to interested to know if its working well? and also how are you using it ? pete Gary Johnson wrote: > All - > > For the sake of keeping the next poor soul from figuring this out, I'll post > the solution: You must explicitly specify > > --enable-ai-models > > on the command line, or the multiplayer object will not show up when using an > external FDM. > > Thanks to everyone who burned a few brain cells thinking about it, and > especially to Anders, who thought out loud. > > Regards, > > - Gary > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Gary Johnson [mailto:gary.john...@csr-fl.com] > Sent: Friday, January 22, 2010 9:36 AM > To: FlightGear developers discussions > Subject: Re: [Flightgear-devel] External FDM and Multiplayer simultaneously? > > Anders - > > Thanks for the prompt reply.
