MSVC does not have fmin() defined, so complains in vacuum.cxx.
gcc-2.95 is also complaining about it missing.
Same for MSVC 7.

To avoid things getting very complex very quickly it might be easier to take a
very simplistic apporach and model the batteries chief characteristics such
as terminal voltage, and ampere/hour capacity. Since there is no such thing
as a perfect power source you could go to much more detail -
I took it upon myself to email cessna last night in the hope that they might
be able to supply me with some line drawings and a few useful bits of
technical data for the caravan model. I did point out that the info would be
used solely for this project and as such would be re-distributed under
Hmmm...I can see clearly there that culling isn't the problem. Are you having
any problems with other models? BTW the offets are from the 3D Model's origin
(0,0,0) which in this case is about 3 meters behind the pilot on a line that
crosses the leading edge of the wings about halfway down
Hello,
did you recognize that some markers in the HUD display disappear when
3D-clouds come in sight ? Shortly after takeoff, when looking at the clouds,
I see a HUD like this:

Well, as far as I can tell, fmin() is C99 not Std C++. We could
use std::min() but that causes a problem with MSVC where you have
to use cpp_min() instead. And so it goes on...
My fault -- I didn't realize that fmin() was non-ANSI. I've fixed it

No problem, just wanted to make sure everyone realizes this

I believe that for those areas already processed and on line
these are still free.
We would have to build a new DEM reader to handle these
but that should not be too dificult in that they are in a
'well known' format

We were in a good mood today and published a snapshot
of our current code. We would like it if other
developers could take a look at it and see if you can
compile the code and run into platform problems.
We have succesfully compiled on Cygwin, Solaris

The explanation of the problem is a little confused, though:
Here are some ideas about modeling electrical systems that are general
enough to handle most airplanes.
Nice list, but the only item that is relevant for light aircraft is the bus.

Can we please dump the code from Steam to eliminate duplication ?

Chicago about a month ago. I was flying along just fine until in the dark
