Hi, I am running flightgear 1.9.1 compiled from source on a Fedora 8 system. I also downloaded the data file, FlightGear-data-1.9.0.tar.bz2 . I can fly around in the stock Cessna 172 but when I try to invoke the panel only mode (fgfs --aircraft=c172p-panel-only) it complains as follows:
Failed to load instrumentation system model: /storage/apps/flightgear/data/Aircraft/c172/panel-only-instrumentation.xml Error reading panel: Failed to open file at /storage/apps/flightgear/data/Aircraft/c172/Panels/c172-610x-panel.xml (reported by SimGear XML Parser) Error reading new panel from Aircraft/c172/Panels/c172-610x-panel.xml FGMultiplayMgr - No receiver port, Multiplayermode disabled KI266 dme indicator #0 initialized Initializing Nasal Electrical System power up Nasal runtime error: nil used in numeric context at /storage/apps/flightgear/data/Aircraft/Generic/kap140.nas, line 1391 called from: /storage/apps/flightgear/data/Aircraft/Generic/kap140.nas, line 259 I checked in my data/Aircraft directory and there is nothing for "c172", only for "c172p". Thinking I maybe deleted the "c172" directory I looked in the original FlightGear-data-1.9.0.tar.bz2 file but it doesn't exist there either. Luckily I have an old complete copy of flightgear and data that did have the "c172" dir and I was able to symlink it like this: [bw...@surge Aircraft]$ pwd /storage/apps/flightgear/data/Aircraft [bw...@surge Aircraft]$ ln -s ../../../flightgear.old/data/Aircraft/c172 At this point the panel only mode worked fine. So is this a problem? Is the "c172" dir supposed to be included in the data file? I did a quick google search and didn't see anything else about the problem .. am I really the first one to notice it in all these months?
