Hello All, I'm a newby to FlightGear and the lists having gotten fgfs V0.9.10 about two weeks ago. I am quite excited about FG as it seems to be a good way to answer M$'s FS X.
At first I had problems with FG, specifically that it didn't work well with my joypad, a Century Concepts Int'l Limited, Made in China cheapo, but all I can afford. So I started reading and found out how to write my own XML Driver. I've attached it to this message as I'm hoping it will help others. Still no feedback but I understand that this is a problem with plib and not FG. Perhaps the solution to that would be to fix plib? I have a few questions, so I put on my asbestos underwear before I sat down to write in the hope that they will protect me from the inevitable "Read The Fine Manual" (RTFM) flames. 8=)) I work mostly in Windows these days. I have all the Version 8 (Express Edition) compilers including C++. Mostly I program in BASIC, PureBasic to be exact, though I am a skilled C programmer. I would like to know: a) What's the preferred Windows CVS tool? b) How do I find and access your CVS repository? c) Is the code in the repository compatible with M$'s V8 compilers? d) What do I have to have from the repository in order to compile it with M$'s V8 tools and end up with a working FS? 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? I hope I'm not being too much of a pain in the behind with all these questions and your answers will be much appreciated, yes even the flames as long as they contain some information I don't know. -- Best regards, Magus
