[Flightgear-devel] Textures not loaded when running my compiled flightgear

2009-08-28 Thread Bruno Sanches
Hello Folks,
I am watching the discussions for some time and I started to play around
with fg code.

After the discussions about compiling on windows I was able to do a full
build on my windows xp using microsoft visual studio express 9.0.

Everything appears to be ok, but when the sim starts the gound texture,
airports textures are missing. The only thing that has colors and textures
is the airplane cockpit, a few ground objects, trees and skys.

Any ideas how to debug this? If I ran fgfs using the official version from
the site its works fine.

Thank you!

Bruno Sanches

Did you build FlightGear/CVS or 1.9.1? If you built the development 
version you also need to check out the matching version of the data 
directory, the data for 1.9.1 will not work with a current FlightGear/CVS 
binary.

Cheers,

Re: [Flightgear-devel] [DRAFT] generic input devices and hotplug support

2009-08-28 Thread Patrice Poly

Some time ago, I have been playing with input.cxx so that FG takes all the 
buttons of my Saitek x52pro ( more than 36, that is ).
I had to patch plib so that this work.

Since input method changed, my trick is obsolete, so I was wondering if the 
new method based on linux input will take more than 36 buttons natively ?
I am not home right now so I cannot try it with the saitek stick, just being 
curious !

It has not changed, it's just a new, additional way of supporting devices. The 
old plib driven keyboard/mouse/joystick input still persists. Both options 
live happily next to each other and you may use the new or the old one.

There is no (known) limit for the number of supported buttons or axes with 
this implementation other than those of your operating system. On linux, 
buttons, keys and axes are numbered by a 16bit unsigned integer which limits 
your number of each to 65536.

Anders,

I replaced string_utilities.h with the latest version (2009/07/30) and
I get the same error. I switched the flight dynamics by choosing a
C130 with yasim and it worked! For my experiment I really need a
propeller plane about the size of a Cessna 172. I tried a beech99
and a few others but it says it can't find the specified aircraft.

 Well, not quite even though technically the source is managed by 
 CVS. 
 You have the development version of FlightGear (usually called 
 FlightGear/CVS).
 
 JSBSim is developed by a separate project so the development 
 version of 
 JSBSim (JSBSim/CVS) is sometimes ahead of the version in 
 FlightGear/CVS as
 the copy of the JSBSim code in FlightGear/CVS is frequently but

 You can test doing such an update yourself by replacing

 file I 
 linked to in the previous email. I think that will solve your problem.

Good, until I find a 65537 buttons joystick, and learn how to use each, that

[Flightgear-devel] [patch] Selectable ignore for MP chat

2009-08-28 Thread Anders Gidenstam

Hi all,

I'm not that frequently on the multiplayer network but I heard this 
feature request on IRC. This patch to Nasal/multiplayer.nas adds an 
ignore checkbox to each player entry in the pilot list. Once checked MP 
chat messages from that callsign will be ignored until unchecked or to 
the end of the session, whichever comes first.

http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/misc/tmp/add_MPchat_ignore-20090828.diff

The changes might benefit from a review by someone familiar with the pilot 
list dialog.


Cheers,

Anders

[Flightgear-devel] include TTF with GPL compatible license into base package?

2009-08-28 Thread Torsten Dreyer
Hi

with the new osgText feature we can place arbitray text in the scenegraph. For 
that, font files are required. Not many fonts around are compatible with GPL. 
One that is - or seems to be - is Bitstream Vera: 
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/
I think it's a very clean and usable font family to be used with FlightGear 
and I'd like to include it in the base package under data/Fonts.

What do you think?

Thanks Anders!  Is it possible to extend the ignore to the player's 
aircraft as well?  One of the comments was that the person was blocking a 
runway with an airplane.  A perfect ignore would turn off the offending 
player's aircraft model and not do any collision detection against it. :)
