[Flightgear-devel] Flightgear AI Aircraft
Guys,
I'm unsure what to do here.
I have visited the site http://www.xs4all.nl/~dtalsma/flightgear.html
and downloaded the 737 file.
As instructed i have done the following :
Click on the link below to download one of the aircraft packages. To install,
create a directory ${FG_ROOT}/data/Aircraft/AI, copy the zip file to this
directory and extract the zip file.
So i made a dir in Aircraft called AI then unzipped the file there.
I enable AI but i dont see no models ?
What am i doing wrong ??
Can someone help me put please.
Cheers
Justin Smithies

Hi Curt, IIRC I sent you an early Canberra around the time when the developers were considering the issue of including all of the FG aircraft in the base package. You put the Canberra up on the web-downloads page but not in to cvs, which seemed reasonable to me at the time, so I didn't comment. Then, when it was apparent to me that you probably would want it in cvs too, and this didn't mean that it would automatically go in the base package, Josh had already contacted me about re-working it so I then thought we might as well wait until Josh had done his stuff as it would be a big improvement. I was originally thinking that several different Canberra types e.g. PR.9 could all sit in a single 'Canberra' folder but when Josh sent me his first update he had changed the folder name to be specific to the B(I)8 and in the end I thought it would be easier to maintain if they were in their own folders after all so I just went with it, thinking that because there wasn't already a version in cvs, there wouldn't be any problems or confusion... lol :) LeeE --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

Hi Justin,
Thanks for trying it out the download page. You're not doing anything wrong,
but you're just a little ahead of us, that's all. :-) I hadn't announced the
page publicly yet, for reasons explained below, but felt it would be a nice
gem to have online around the time FlightGear 0.9.10, or 1.0 comes out. For
that reason I had asked Curt quitely if he could add a link to it from the
main FlightGear page.
The aircraft download page is still in a very early stage of development, and
currently does contain the models but no code to activate them in flightgear.
These aircraft are part of the so-called traffic manager generated AI (which
isn't really accessible through the GUI yet), so enabling AI doesn't do
affect the appearance of the 737 (yet: David Luff and I are both intending to
unify the two systems, but it's a work in progress).
For the short term future, I will add some additional documentation that would
allow you to write your own traffic files in xml, plus some instructions on
how to activate the scripted AI system. For the intermediate future, I'm
hoping to finish a GUI based traffic editor that would allow users to create
traffic scripts without the need to know the finer details of the xml
configuration scripts.
Ultimately, I'm hoping to accomplish what you had expected: Download a
specific aircraft/livery combination, drop it in Aircraft/AI, and voila: it
works. But, there's still a bit more work needed to be done before we're at
that stage.
Finally, please note, that a number of the 737/747 repaints are not exactly of
a high quality. Those were initially done by me as a proof-of-principle that
we could actually do multi livery aircraft in AI.
Hope this is an answer to your question.
Cheers,
Durk

I'm a bit confused about these. I took a quick look at them and they don't look like high-resolution textures. They look like *larger* textures, but not higher-resolution. In other words, it's not that they contain the same image as the lower-resolution, just with more pixels (which is the way the standard low-res and high-res textures work); instead, they contain a larger image (the low resolution image comprising the upper-left-hand quadrant of the high resolution image). Do I have this right? If so, they shouldn't work in the way that the high-res textures are supposed to work. The features in the high-res images, when used, will appear half the size of the exact same features in the low-res images. -c -- Chris Metzler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (remove snip-me. to email) As a child I understood how to give; I have forgotten this grace since I have become civilized. - Chief Luther Standing Bear signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Hi, Shall we update the KSFO tile in cvs with the data available in the world scenery? Or which copy is the /master/ copy here? The problem I try to solve is that multiplayer clients should all use the exactly same scenery data. Otherwise multiplayer aircraft having installed different scenery than the other players will magically move above or below ground for others. greetings Mathias -- Mathias Fröhlich, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

The following change allows that to happen. I do not know if this breaks anything for non net_fdm users. native_fdm.cxx: Changed get_V_north,east,down() to get_V_north,east,down_rel_ground().

Hi Chris, Thanks for the suggestionabout the correctmethod I should have usedfor downsampling the textures.
