Hi James, the answer is yes. :-)
We need to modify the loader in simgear as well as the format generation
code in terragear. Right now the indices are packed as 2-byte short ints in
the binary .btg file so of course making a change only to the simgear side
will do nothing to fix the problem.
Whatever we do needs to happen in close coordination with the terragear code
in order to make sure that the changes match and are sane and reasonable
from both perspectives.
Regards,
Curt.
