RE: [Flightgear-devel] Moving to 0.9.8 kills model rotations
That's what I thought at first as well, but the same property is used for the altimeter's digits and needle; the digits move but the needle does not. I traced the execution and the appropriate rotations are being created in simgear and the rotation update function is getting called. I'll double check the property names just to be sure.

Yes this is true Dave but that also applied 9.5 so I would not think that was the problem. I have a eicas/ecam instrument that I am working on which was started on 9.5 and is now in 9.8 and it works fine.But that is running on the windows binaries. The only two things I can think of is. 1)Check the names of the properties you are animating against have not changed 2)Check the object names have not got altered some how and the animations can't find them.But this usually leads to the sim crashing. After that I am all out of ideas. Oh btw thanks Dave for the heads up on the Nvidia install very helpfull. Dave Martin.
