Hi Cullam, >> compile Terra-gear yet on either Windows or Ubuntu
Nice to have another person on 'scenery' enhancement ;=)) On Ubuntu: ========= Inspired by Francesco Brisa simple script, I have built a do-everything script to build TerraGear in Ubuntu. http://geoffair.net/tmp/maketg It has a -h or --help output... put it in your 'path', and make it exectuable - chmod +x maketg - and you can create a new 'terragear' from any root folder, like say $HOME/tg 1. it install, or updates, all the tools and packages needed 2. downloads _ALL_ the source, configures and compiles them, with lots of stops for input unless you add NOPAUSE Even if you do not use it directly, it is informative as to what is needed to compile terragear-cs... If you use 'non-standard' install locations for the libraries, like I do in this script, except for the actual terragear tools, which it installs into $HOME/bin, then you will also need to patch configure.ac, per my recent post, unless, and until, my patch, or its equivalent makes it into the git respository ;=() Remember, you need git simgear to build git terragear. http://mapserver.flightgear.org/git/gitweb.pl?p=terragear-cs;a=summary http://mapserver.flightgear.org/git/gitweb.pl?p=simgear-cs;a=summary I recently had some trouble with the http:// clone, but no problem with the git:// clone... and anywa, seems to work faster than I remember for http, when it did work... cvs terragear is badly out of date, and you would need to use cvs simgear from quite some time ago, probably back to PRE-OSG, but have not tried. On Windows: ========== I have recently put up a page on this - see - http://geoffair.net/fg/fgfs-050.htm It is work-in-progress because I am hoping to get some/all the changes into the git repository, and have still _NOT_ solved my lack-of-elevation problem. Fred recently did an update for MSVC7.1, so presumably, if you have this version, then it may compile as is. But my patch file - http://geoffair.net/fg/txt/tg-diff-01.txt is needed for later versions. The diff also contains a few small tool changes, especially more help output. Fred was to review my changes, for MSVC8/9, but I guess he has not had time yet... ;=(( On Dem data: =========== I think this is better answered by others. As you can see from my web page, I had quite some trouble with 'elevation' data ;=)) Hope this helps make Canada more beautiful...
