Hi,
I must be doing something wrong, cause I cannot seem to get my object show up
where I expect it to be.
I tried my own object as well as some existing objects. STATIC or SHARED, never
seen anything showing.
Please inspect the details below, and help me to proceed.
1. The coordinates are 45.318967N and 75.670182E (in tile 1712593.stg) right at
the middle of runway 14/32 of Ottawa airport (CYOW).
2.
FG_SCENERY=/ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery:/usr/share/games/FlightGear/Scenery:/ob/fgWorldScenery
3. Here is the listing of the first element
ls -R /ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery
/ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery:
Objects/
/ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery/Objects:
w080n40/
/ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery/Objects/w080n40:
w076n45/
/ob/yavuz/fgYoScenery/Objects/w080n40/w076n45:
1712593.stg 1712593.stg.ORIG myObject.ac
4. The diff between 1712593.stg.ORIG and 1712593.stg is this one line added:
OBJECT_STATIC myObject.ac -075.670182 45.318967 0 180
5. My object is 300+ meters (blender units) high, and its base is about 60
meters squared.
6. My /ob/fgWorldScenery has the full scenery (unchanged) for w080n40.
/usr/share/games/FlightGear/Scenery contains only what came with the FG
installation.
***** I do not see my object at all *****
Variations I tried:
Played with altitude in newly added OBJECT_STATIC line. I read somewhere that
it should be altitude above ground. But just in case I tried replacing it with
110 (altitude in meters of Ottawa Airport is around that). besides even if it
is measured from sea level large part (200+ meters) of my object should still
stick out.
In case my model has a problem, I copied KSFO terminal building in its place.
No luck. Tried it with different altitude too. Still no luck.
I tried one of the OBJECT_SHARED instead. No luck.
I do not think this problem is specific to my model, but in any case I will
ask. Do I have to play with material/texture etc in blender to make my object
visible? Cause I did not. So It must be whatever default material is there.
I appreciate any and all ideas to get me out of this bind.
Thanks for listening...
