[Flightgear-devel] V9.9 test run
I compiled 9.9 test version on my Thinkpad T42 (I'm on the road) and after loading the cloud file, it worked for the default Cessna. However, when I tried the Citation I got the following messages, and it would not take off. It also had a couple of the instruments on the left side o f the panel (clock and the one above it) that were largely obscured by gray lines. Couldn't do much else without a joystick, which is not where I am.

[Flightgear-devel] re: Steve's problem with openGL
Steve, I have had this problem, and I remember doing two things. First check to see if you installed the openGL-devel stuff, without it the program cannot find the headers. Second, be sure you haven't installed it twice, or that it is not in the right directory. I am still confused about the latter, but I remember removing and reinstalling both openGL and the devel and getting it to work. Hope this helps.

[Flightgear-devel] HUD fonts for Norman Vine
Norman, The problem is I need to change the font that is showing on my HUD to make it larger (and brighter). I cannot figure out where this is done. It seems to refer back to properties in some way, but I can't find where the lever is. If I change the sizes in the programs in Cockpit, nothing happens. If the program is not using the GL fonts, what is it using and how does one change one or more instances in the HUD?

[Flightgear-devel] fonts for HUD
I am going nuts trying to enlarge the fonts for a tailored HUD display. I have changed the definition is hud.cxx to HUD_FONT_LARGE with no effect. I have tried to change HUD_Text_Size in hud.cxx. But these have no effect. Where would these be set, outside of the Cockpit directory?

[Flightgear-devel] AGL and HUD
I have had this problem with an older version of FG, around 8.0, when using a separate computer for the scenery. For reasons unexplained the altitude was set initially in /Network/native_fdm.cxx as an addon to the runway height, then the AGL changed, and with it the altitude. I fixed it for our purposes by locking the AGL to the takeoff runway altitude, but the current version does it the other way, getting AGL from the altitude and subtracting the current ground elevation to get the AGL. I don't know if this helps in your case.
