[Flightgear-devel] [Announce] fog/mist/haze layer now active
Hi all, i have just pushed some changes to activate a METAR generated cloud layer representing fog, mist and haze if reported. Check it out by selecting the Early morning fog weather scenario in the global weather dialog. It'll get you half a mile visibility and a fog layer of 500' thickness. Once you passed 500ft of altitude you find yourself in a clear sky and above the fog. The transition when passing through the top edge of the layer is not perfect as you might find out by yourself. I'm open to ideas how to improve this. Enjoy - and please report bugs.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] decoding coordinates of a particular tile
Thanks guys. After poking around the sgbucket code a bit I fixed everything up and made it work well enough to generate a kml for the area I'm interested in. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=qsource=s_qhl=engeocode=q=http:%2F%2Fdl.dropbox.com%2Fu%2F15218376%2Ftile.kmlsll=37.0625,-95.677068sspn=40.409448,93.076172ie=UTF8ll=47.565407,12.409058spn=2.157209,5.817261t=kz=8 Red border is the 1x1 degree chunk, white grid is of course the tiles inside that chunk. Now I can visualize exactly what lies within each tile and how flightgear will be loading and unloading my scenery. I'll be using this to decide how to best partition up the static geometry in my Innsbruck scenery project for performance and so on. cheers! -- Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
