Hi Martin, Hmmmmm, quite, quite interesting ;=)) After setting up openjdk-6-jre, and Eclipse, found one small fix needed to avoid multiple mp server packet rejection - in - de.knewcleus.fgfs/src/de/knewcleus/fgfs/multiplayer/ protocol/MultiplayerPacket.java - public static final int MAX_PACKET_SIZE=1024; + public static final int MAX_PACKET_SIZE=1200; // FIX20111226 This is the current max. size from a recent - <FG>/src/MultiPlayer/multiplaymgr.cxx With this fix it seemed to handle well the mpserver link, packet exchange, etc, and graphically added current aircraft, showing callsign and a nice predicted forward track... And I was able to create for myself another new sector.xml from the samples given, for an airport of my choice, thanks to mapserver shapefile downloads, etc... which all seemed to work well ;=)) BUT I could NOT seem to get the comms (fgcom?) working... any ideas, pointers... It has a small 'FGCOMM console' window accepting an active and standby frequency, but this does not seem to do anything... it seems nothing is done with the entered 'active' frequency... >From our newsletter I can see OpenRadar is in need of a new 'maintainer'... and I can see the source is littered with at least 16 'TODO' comments... And at first glance, the FGCOMM code seems far too minimal, but there are no 'TODO' in this area... but I can not find any code to make it work... Has anybody ever had this OpenRadar comms code working? Tried - http://wiki.flightgear.org/OpenRadar - stunningly brief ;=(( http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10221 seems more interested in using Atlas as the base... http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Stand_Alone_ATC_Control_Development likewise seems to again favor Atlas... But are there other places where I can read more specifically about this java OpenRadar setup, running, operations? Or is it ALL only in the actual java code? It does not seem to have any 'README' files, just some 215 java sources... Regards, Geoff. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
