Re: [Flightgear-devel] Flightgear-devel Digest, Vol 61, Issue 10
Oliver Fels All this is absolutely false. I never requested a change in the FDM Alouette 2 ! If I could not fly, and although it does not bother me. JM-26 and many, many others were sad not to do so. The point with the AlouetteII is that it is a helicopter with absolute no stabilisation or control compensation aids the same way as the R22 is- just with a higher mass, a turbine and more power. Thus if you apply control you will have to make sure that you apply compensation on each (!!!) axes simultaneously. That makes a helicopter beginner struggle with the controls and propably fail but does not make the FDM unrealistic. At least it is a (legacy) helicopter with all its challenges. If you have not seen an unstable AlouetteII upon takeoff (as you mentioned in the other post) this is simply the case because you are watching a trained pilot, not a simplistic FDM. Thereore before changing the FDM in FlightGear to please the not-so- trained pilots I would have appreciated to ask some of the more experienced pilots regarding their impressions. As to my experiences with the Alouette2 I can say that I can apply stable hovers with minimum locational deviations and that I once landed the thing stable in the bay of a FlightGear carrier. Things you can not accomplish with a broken FDM. Though I have not checked it for a while. However the floats version seems to have some issues with CoG and high speed flight. So I am somehow surprised regarding the latest happenings and do not appreciate the way the FDM was changed without a concensus to do so. As one of the few, or possibly the only one, involved in FG to have stick time (just a few hours) on helos of this era, I can say that the old fdm feels pretty realistic, so far as I can recall. It is flyable, and actually not too difficult. I would say Maik did a pretty good job. I think that the solution of having easy/hard fdms is a good compromise, although personally, I can't think why anyone would want to fly an unrealistic fdm. After all - realism is what FG is all about. This thread has gone on too long, and there has been far too much said of a personal nature. It has not reflected well on anyone, and not on the ethic of this list, nor on FG. Time to call a halt. Vivian -- What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Flightgear-devel Digest, Vol 61, Issue 11
Groucho aka Oliver Fels ? Who are this people ? I have known people to justify their defamatory used the names and peudos other people. But then, you're the best at this game. This is me. Obviously you do not seem to have read this as the circle goes on and on and on. Well, folks, to stay on-topic and to prevent the usual suspects are continueing their game of escalation here is my offer (which I already communicated but which did not seem to get through): There are several sites on the internet which commercially provide scanned flight manuals for various helicopters. If somebody confirms that this is the data required for a decent flight model and if somebody guarantees that he is able to create such a decent flight model (and afterwards does) I am willing to spend a certain financial amount for such a document (electronic version) and donate it for such a puporse. Most are available between 20 and 30 US$ so this is the limit per manual. This offer is valid not only for the AlouetteII but theoretically for any flight model document. The only drawback is: I pay for it so I decide if it is worth having it in FlightGear. Currently I can imagine this for the AlouetteII, EC130, EC135, R22/44/66, AW139, BK117, Bell 206. Another point: Requesters must prove that they are able to derive a sophisticated FDM from this information. Fair enough, I do not spend money for nothing. Comments, agreements, denials?

Removing the visibility condition fixes the issue for me - and I haven't seen any side effects (yet ;) ). Not sure why that condition was introduced in the first place (suggestions anyone?). The condition seems a bit of hack to me - why should sky be switched off for 999 feet, but not for 1001 feet visibility... So, removing it may be the cleanest solution to the sky color issue. My suggestion: we try removing the condition now and see if anyone sees new issues. If so, it's probably best to temporarily revert both patches for the upcoming release - and try to find a better solution for the next one. And if removing the condition does not cause any new issues, we've solved the issue anyway (and of course keep it for the release). Other suggestions? Any background info on the effective_visibility 1000.0 condition? Otherwise I'll try removing it from sg/next. cheers, Thorsten -- What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!

If the patches are intended to go into the main line, I'd love to have Tim take a pass at reviewing them. For a quick hack you could just do a traditional diff -c sort of patch if you wanted to share the changes and let other people try them or take a look at the code. Ok, let me try that. The goal is to move them into the main line at some point and a review is definitely in order. In the near term, a quicky would work ATM slogging through the code to understand how shaders work. The edge blending will be a shader program, most likely a fragment shader at the pixel level. But having a tough time getting my head around how to include the shader in the code as part of the scene graph. The Docs help, but more info than what is needed ( at least that's my impression ). Just need to understand how to incorporate, say, an edgeblend.frag chunk of GLSL code into the scenegraph, It's pretty much a static set of functions with zero options, no fancy animation, techniques, quality-levels, or other predicates. The code will test the pixels in the overlap region, adjust the RGB values based on position and then apply a gamma correction. Any thoughts or examples from the community of a basic template and a howto for adding a fragment shader would help. Thanks Jack Curt.
