Re: [Flightgear-devel] FG frame rate tests
Quoting Pigeon : What I've done currently is to tune FG without mucking around the code at all. Only the data is changed or moved away. I tried a few different ways to play with the data so far: a) Removing Textures.high/ b) Textures scaled down to 50% of the original (CVS) c) Textures scaled down to 25% or the original (CVS) d) Materials with multiple texture are changed to have single texture in the materials.xml e) Scenery/Objects/ directory is removed f) ai disabled, ai-traffic disabled, traffic-manager disabled To make the result easier to read, I've made a little table showing all the tests applied and the resulting frame rate, and can be found here: http://pigeond.net/flightgear/tests/fgfs-test-ati-20061015.html Interesting. These data should have their place in the wiki. -Fred -- Frédéric Bouvier http://frfoto.free.fr Photo gallery - album photo http://www.fotolia.fr/p/2278/partner/2278 Other photo gallery http://fgsd.sourceforge.net/ FlightGear Scenery Designer - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

The source is Pascal (Lazarus) not C++, so I doubt it will be useful for anyone here on the list. :-) If *anyone* really wants to work seriously with Lazarus code then I won't hesitate to make it available but that would mean a lot lot lot of hours work for me to cut it out of my big tools libraries.

[Flightgear-devel] [Fwd: FGTools for LINUX]
Hi, as I migrated to OpenSuse 10.1 Linux a short time ago I converted all FGTool stuff to Linux for my own use. Download: (about 2.7 M) http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/FGTLinux/FGToolsLinux.tar.gz The Linux version with a slighly changed GUI (several reasons) but the *same* functionality for both O/S is now available. I call it a BETA although this stuff worked under Win32 for a long time without any problems. But pathes are different with Linux, I was the only user until now who tested it (Linux version) and I don't know whether all is put together into one program by the compiler or there are any dependencies (ie. to installed gtk ???). A really big manual (25 pages PDF) is enclosed and a Quickstarter Textfile. The pictures and descriptions in the PDF are referenced to the Windows version but this should be no problem as only the GUI has changed a *little* but not the engine behind all. You might start with the step for step Quickstarter and if the programs works for you and you have more interest in model placement or making AI files then reading the manual would be a good idea. I hope that there are some interested testers for the Linux version out here and that you give the needed feedback. Have fun!

Sorry for that :-/ I have to do a little more research about the specialities of the Linux version of the compiler now. Maybe I'd better installed the 32bit version of OpenSuse to have more compatibility. Thank you once again for the time you spent doing the test! Regards Georg - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
