[Flightgear-devel] Problem with modified apt.dat file
Hello all, I am having trouble with an updated apt.dat file. I think it is with compressing it. I used the command 'tar cfz apt.dat.gz apt.dat'. Is this correct? When I put the compressed file into FG, but there were problems loading. First, it fell over on line 2 (the version number and copyright), so I removed that. It then gets through the file, but seems to get stuck in an infinite loop, not recognising the end of the file. The log looks like this: Logging priority is bulk Setting geometry to 1280x800 Finished command line arguments Initializing splash screen Reading image /Applications/Games/FlightGear191/FlightGear.app/ Contents/Resources/data/Aircraft/SenecaII/splash.rgb Intel GMA 950 OpenGL Engine Max texture size = 2048 Depth buffer bits = 24 Splash screen progress reading aircraft list Splash screen progress reading airport navigation data Loading Airport Database ... #1 './._apt.dat' #2 '' #3 '13799 0 1 E46 02 Ranch' Next airport = E46 3799 [snip] #367972 '1 1 0 0 EHYB [X] Ypenburg The Hague' Next airport = EHYB 1 Adding NV26 pos = -115.069, 36.0791 elev = 1913 #367973 '10 52.053471 004.341159 22x 222.00 7020 . . 148 343243 2 0 2 0.25 0 0300.0300' #367974 '10 52.053955 004.339983 xxx 100.00 800 0.0 0.0 110 161161 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367975 '10 52.046864 004.329772 xxx 132.00 702 0.0 0.0 176 161161 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367976 '10 52.060818 004.350292 xxx 132.00 702 0.0 0.0 180 161161 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367977 '10 52.054977 004.338323 xxx 42.00 1000 0.0 0.0 400 11 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367978 '10 52.053928 004.339871 xxx 42.00 6690 0.0 0.0 130 11 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367979 '10 52.054462 004.338961 xxx 222.00 7000 0.0 0.0 125 161161 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367980 '10 52.053768 004.339871 xxx 356.00 880 0.0 0.0 110 161161 1 0 0 0.25 0 ' #367981 '99' End of file reached #367982 '' #367983 '' #367984 '' #367985 '' and thus it continues indefinitely.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Native WIN32 MSVC9 build error
Sorry about the delay, but took me a while to get back into WIN32 building... My error! Somehow I missed the SG CVS update... so my last successful WIN32 build is now a few days ago ;=)) Accordingly I have updated my FG build site - http://geoffair.net/fg/fgfs-047.htm including MSVC9 binaries, and using a FG config.h version of 'MSVC9-WIN32-2.0.0-rc1', but this does not seem to 'show' anywhere... If you have visited the page before, make sure you do a [Refresh] to see this 2010-01-17 update. Although the orange/dark pall over the scenery has gone from Ubuntu after a driver update, even after an ATI WIN32 driver update, through Catalyst, still seeing this in windows, but 'less', well lighter than before... And it happens with both my ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT, in Vista 32-bits, and ATI Radeon X1300PRO, in XP 32-bits! Only on certain headings??? Anyway... Enjoy. Geoff.

Did a SG/FG/data CVS update earlier today, but ran into this ERROR when compiling FG, repeated for other files which include 'flight.hxx'... Gear.cpp c:\FG\32\FlightGear\src\FDM/flight.hxx(110) : error C2678: binary '==' : no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'const SGGeod' (or there is no acceptable conversion) C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\include \guiddef.h(192): could be 'int operator ==(const GUID ,const GUID )' c:\FG\32\SimGear\simgear/timing/timestamp.hxx(207): or 'bool operator ==(const SGTimeStamp ,const SGTimeStamp )' while trying to match the argument list '(const SGGeod, const SGGeod)' I remember reading something about this operator ==, comparing two SGGeod's in the CVS logs, so maybe I have missed something, or the cvs update failed. Have not had a chance yet to attempt the same in Ubuntu... But meantime, any help appreciated... 2. Also, when compiling SG, I get a repeated warning, for files including 'EffectBuilder.hxx', like TextureBuilder.cxx c:\fg\32\simgear\simgear\scene\material\EffectBuilder.hxx(280) : warning C4099: 'simgear::InstallAttributeBuilder' : type name first seen using 'class' now seen using 'struct' c:\fg\32\simgear\simgear\scene\material\EffectBuilder.hxx(269) : see declaration of 'simgear::InstallAttributeBuilder' It does seem to be declared a 'class' in one place, then a structure in another... so seems an avoidable warning...

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Problem with modified apt.dat file
Judging from the extension .gz the command to use is gzip not tar. For compressed tar I'd expect extension .tgz or .tar.gz. Try 'gzip apt.dat' instead.

[Flightgear-devel] RFC: Eye catching graphics in 2.0.0 / Splash screen update
Hi all, This morning I installed a FlightGear 2.0.0 release candidate on my windows machine at work. One thing that I noticed immediately is that the graphics looked really slick: The new splash screen for the C172p, the impressive 3D clouds, and the new terminal buildings at KSFO. I didn't have the KSFO Airtrain demo activated yet, but that would probably be another nice eye catcher. So I would propose activating that by default in 2.0. Secondly, because the new splash screen was so distinctly different, it seems a good idea to me to update the splash screens for all our default aircraft. After all, these screens are going to be the first visual impression of the new version. Preferably somebody with extremely good photographic skills should try to make a few good screen shots, and then frame them in a nice context. Any takers (Heiko, hint, hint. :-) )? Time permitting, I'm also willing to update a few.

They're based on a proposal by me, and may be subject to change depending on unanticipated problems. If we really want to name it 2.0.0 then we should test it a quite time longer than just a week. I propose official ReleaseCandiates for all possible platforms by 31.January and then depending on the resultats another ReleaseCandiate after one week. If then all agree, we could release it finally. Cheers HHS __ Do You Yahoo!? Sie sind Spam leid? Yahoo!

Nevertheless, the process is still in motion, and we expect a release real soon (I've mentioned a target date to the people directly involved, but just to keep the tension on, I'm not yet going to announce that publically yet :-) ) Just as a reminder: Last year's FlightGear 1.9.1 came out with the following selection of aircraft: Airliner: Boeing 777-200 World War II Fighter: A6M2 Zero Small TurboProp: b1900d Helicopter: bo105 Small Prop: Cessna 172p Small Business Jet: Cessna Citation X Ultralight: Moyes Dragonfly Aerotowing Capable / Seaplane: DeHavilland Dhc2 Omnipowerful Jet Fighter: F-14b Light Prop: Piper j3cub Light Twin Prop: SenecaII Historic Warbird: Sopwidth Camel Not of this Earth: UFO Airship: Zeppelin-NT Seen as no-one else has commented, I'll just add my 2c and say that I think this is a fine selection. I'm in two minds about the j3cub. While it hasn't had much development for a long time, it is small in size, easy to fly and doesn't have much graphics load. So, on balance, I'm pleased it will still be included.
