Does this will be compatible with actual JSBSim development  ?

* gerard robin -- Thursday 05 June 2008:

No, it will get overwritten with the next JSBSim update. There's
a reason why commits to externally maintained parts of fgfs (nasal,
jsbsim) used to be taboo, just like commits to parts which are
strictly maintained by a single person or small group (YASim).
(UIUC may no longer belong to either group, as it seems to be
unmaintained.)

The right thing would have been to ask the responsible maintainers,
to have them make the changes in their repositories, and then to
forward port that. But then again, times change, and maybe all that
is no longer true ...

[Flightgear-devel] Scotland Scenery

2008-06-05 Thread Stuart Buchanan
Hi All,

For my own amusement, I generated some scenery for Scotland using the GSHHS 
coastline and OpenStreetMap for roads. Scotland greatly benefits from using 
GSHHS coastline, as the VMAP0 data doesn't include many of the small islands on 
the west coast. There are sufficiently few roads that the OSM dataset works 
quite well also - you can even see some roundabouts!

For those who might be interested in doing some flying in Scotland, it is 
available here:

http://flightgear.mxchange.org/stuart/scotland.tar.gz (35MB)

Many thanks to Roland Haeder for hosting it.

Note that the scenery package is only the Terrain part, and doesn't include 
any Objects. It should be uncompressed into the Terrain sub-directory of your 
$FG_SCENERY (e.g. data/Scenery).

As always, objects should be downloaded from http://scenemodels.flightgear.org/.

For those unfamiliar with Scotland, there is a small suggested flight around my 
home city of Edinburgh here:
As suggested flight for those who have downloaded both the scenery and objects 
is this: 
http://wiki.flightgear.org/flightgear_wiki/index.php?title=Suggested_Flights#Scotland_-_Edinburgh_to_Dundee

I'd also highly recommend taking off from Oban and As suggested flight for 
those who have downloaded both the scenery and objects is this: flying in the 
mountains in a fast military jet. After all, that's what the RAF do!

The fact that I was able to generate scenery using TerraGear for amusement is 
a testament to the effort that the Custom Scenery team 
(http://www.custom-scenery.org/) have made to make TerraGear easier to use. 
Many thanks to Martin and Ralf for their work.

I never got the memo that large parts of the tree were off limits. I
agree that a substantive change should be vetted by owners first, but
I don't really see the point for fairly cosmetic changes.

On the other hand, why is JSBSim in our CVS at all if new versions are
brought in in this way?

Hi Fred,

don't know what is different here, but yesterday evening I compiled 
fresh cvs osg-fg on MSVC-express without problem (based in Olaf Flebbes 
project files).

I have the problem, that some parts of the static scenery isn't found 
(alcatraz, stadium near KSFO and many others, but not all). The fg-root 
path is added twice, so I changed my starting directory, that fg-root 
can be added twice (fg-root=../../fg-cvs/data). I don't know, when this 
problem started, my last build was rather old...

In the old days one didn't need memos for that. One had to be around
long enough before one even got CVS access. Enough time to learn the

The point is: what you consider an improvement might not be seen as
such by the code *owner*. And the owner's wish usually trumps a
contributor's.

What way would you prefer? Some projects are on other servers, and
CVS has no way to import them directly. They need to be copied in.
This hasn't been a problem in the past. You just have to know that
making changes in those copies is totally pointless.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Scotland Scenery

2008-06-05 Thread Georg Vollnhals
Hi Stuart,

thank you for sharing this as I am especially interested in all scenery 
which uses OSM data.

Last year I bought a cheap handheld GPS device and collected some local 
data for OSM and uploaded them - but what a rapid development here 
around Bremen until now, very very busy people improving the data every 
day. Even forrests and rivers are represented in a very nice way in the 
local dataset.
That is why I hope that in some years - regarding the poor man-power, 
only 2 developers - we can use OSM data at good data-represented areas.

Thanks a lot to all who are working for or supporting getting OSM data 
(not only streets) into FlightGear.

(Beside this, simflying this scenery is a real joy as the landscape is 
fascinating, especially the contrast between sea and mountaineous areas. 
I hope you'll spend some more nice models for this area, the scenery 
deserves it :-)  )

And 
i fear, that process will increase the distance between  JSBSim and FG, and 
probably going to a JSBSim use  in a stand alone way ONLY, working with FG 
through an external communication.
Today the users who are using  JSBSim with FG could include the most recent 
original code of it into FG, in to get a running updated FG+JSBSim (last 
version)
What will happen now with that update from Tim which is not, to me, only 
cosmetic.

I don't have all of this conversation, but here are a few items:

1) I'll be glad to make changes in JSBSim as needed. This is the first I've
read of the changes. Which of the posts here is the pertinent one?

2) Dave Culp (and others?) have actually been using the latest JSBSim in
FlightGear for a while, now, for testing. I've compiled it in here at home,
too, but haven't really used it much. I have access to the FlightGear CVS
tree in the JSBSim directory. It's really my fault that the current JSBSim
is not in FlightGear CVS, and I apologize for the foot-dragging.

If we really have no capability or desire to make local changes to
JSBSim (for example), then I'd prefer that we'd say get JSBSim from the
JSBSim CVS server like we do with plib. At the very least it should
have imported on a vendor branch into our CVS so that local changes
could be easily maintained.
