Hi Dave, Sorry for the delay. I wanted to try and install the unix package for FlightGear before requesting for more help.
In my first request, I was concerned with the windows package. I have installed the flightgear 0.9.8 binary for windows. Inside the A318_engine.xml file, there is the following comment : Author: Aero-Matic v0.7 I have changed the property "position/h-sl-ft" to "atmosphere/density-altitude" according to your second remark. I get the message: "Coefficient multipliers cannot create properties, check spelling?". The aero file A318.xml works fine ( < FDM_CONFIG NAME... VERSION "1.65" RELEASE="ALPHA">...Author: Aero-Matic v0.71 ) since I can launched flightgear using this file with the distribution default CFM56_5.xml engine file. I have created both A318_engine.xml and A318.xml files using the Aeromatic tool which generated them on line at the JSBSim site. I have installed the last jsbsim tool Rony. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2005 11:12 AM Subject: Flightgear-users Digest, Vol 31, Issue 2 > Send Flightgear-users mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Flightgear-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
