See the instructions on the wiki at http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Building_FlightGear_-_Windows which will give you a good start point. The biggest problem is with the 3rd party stuff, each of which (especially OpenSceneGraph) has its own 3rd party requirements. This is only relevant if you really MUST build your own to to date version of each and not rely on the distributions suggested in the Wiki. Also the 3rd part stuff keeps changing, so it is very difficult to be at the cutting edge. A Visual Studio 2010 build with fully up to date 3rd part stuff is possible - I have done it here, but at the moment it is not worth the hassle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
