There is a valid criticism that when the starter is pressed the starter continues to operate - this is unrealistic for a cartridge start. I will fix that some time soon. More important is that the transparency of the gun sight reflector has gone wrong, and the switch no longer works. Less work on carrier aircraft, and more on the Spitfire I guess, I'll get on this issue at once.

Otherwise, quite a number of these type of problems have been fixed in the latest version of FlightGear.

I will adjust the transparency of the reflector, but the dimmer function is broken until the 'blend' function gets fixed. I've heard nothing more on the failure to start the Spitfire/Seafire, so I guess all is well now?

To: FlightGear user discussions <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi all, i've been using FlightGear for windows. Now I switched to the linux version. All is working fine (and with a better performance :) ). The thing which I miss in the linux version is the "FGstarter" Is there any possibility to download it anywhere? I've got my Flightgear from the gentoo-portage and the FGStarter wasn't installed with Flightgear. I do not use it to start but I need it to know which airport is in the Database, so i know which runway/aircraft parameter I have to use. cheers josef ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users End of Flightgear-users Digest, Vol 21, Issue 48 ************************************************ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d _______________________________________________ Flightgear-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
