I'm just wondering how much hardwood there is in Sweden. Sweden's
Firs might have been ok for the masts and spars but hardwood was
needed for the hull and superstructure, typically Oak for the keel
and frames and other hardwoods for hull and deck planking. Teak
was especially favoured for deck planking once trade had opened up
the tropics. A relatively little known fact is that Balsa is
actually a hardwood :-)

LeeE To add some trivia on Swedish oak; In the 17th century the navy realized that the available oak woods were too small to meet demand. So, one of the kings back then, I forget which one, ordered planting of oak in Skåne (far south in Sweden 56 degrees N). The problem is of course that it takes a few hundred years before the trees get large enough and now the ship building technology has moved on. The upside is that we now have a few nice oak woods in Skåne. Cheers, Jari -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] shape-decode crash
Hi all,
I tracked down my problem with shape-decode to a case of uncaught
parallel lines in the function getIntersection in util.cxx. The
resulting computed intersection point was obviously very distant,
creating the strange coordinates that Curt noticed.
I fixed it by raising the epsilon constant from 1e-14 to 1e-12 (patch
attached).
Regards,
Maxime

A bucket coordinate of -593:2 suggests that this shapefile may contain

believe the portion prior to the : represents a whole degree

latitude and -90 to +89 for longitude. -593 is completely outside of
possible reality. So the question is, is this a problem with the
shapefile data, or some problem processing the data in the
shape-decode code.

Curt.
Thanks for spotting this, Curt ! Looking at the output of shape-decode,
it looks like the data read from the shapefile is reasonable:
Point 5 (0.609977, 46.997)
Point 6 (0.605342, 46.9964)
Point 7 (0.601051, 46.9955)
However, in the following processing steps the coordinates for point 7
appear wrong:
point = 6
0.605333, 46.9964, 0 - -2828.93, -570.523, 0
The relevant excerpt of the log is here: http://www.mguillaud.net/fg/log2
Anyone familiar with the internals of shape-decode (I am not) can
comment on this ?

[Flightgear-devel] dhc2 beaver mods
Hello everyone, I got bored today and made some new wheels for the beaver. They have more detailed tires and rims with livery, and they are animated to spin in ground roll. The uv mapping and livery modifications were done rather quickly, so I won't be offended if they get changed around. Overall though I think the wheels look pretty good... A couple other things I noticed. In the dhc2-sound.xml, mp-inhg should be replaced with mp-osi so engine sound will work in replays. The other thing was ground handling, the turn radius seemed very large for a tail dragger/bush plane. I had often had troubles getting it turned around to take off again. I saw that dst0 and dst1 for tail wheel steering are set to 0.5/-0.5, I changed to 1.0/-1.0 and feels much better to me, I can actually swing it around now. On the other hand, I have no real idea what a beaver handles like on the ground...so just thought I'd mention it. couple shots of them in flightgear http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3511/3799201057_30dbd47864_o.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3556/3800020854_46ae65b609_o.jpg and zip containing the modified wheels.ac, wheels.xml and liveries - for cvs version http://www.mediafire.com/?m30udyxgxce hope the dhc2 guy reads this list, and hope I don't step on anyones toes modifying things... cheers! -- Jacob (aka Tuxklok) -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] dhc2 beaver mods
lol. No problem :).I was just bugging since I sort of know you through MP. But you did raise an interesting topic. Some time ago I was under the impression that we were phasing out mp-osi in favor of mp-inhg. I didnt realize the replay system used it.

I use replay to admire my bad landings ;) Hardly an important thing, but thought I'd point it out since it's a simple one to fix. -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
