Re: [Flightgear-devel] Hang on reset
Hello Jon Do we have flightgear git sync with jsbsim cvs ? That could explain. 2011/1/1 Jon S. Berndt jonsber...@comcast.net I seem to vaguely recall some issue with resetting (with JSBSim). I had thought that the most recent JSBSim code fixed that, though.

It turns out that Nasal/gui.nas already had a menuEnable function for enabling or disabling entire menus or individual menu items using unique names rather than the labels. Names already exist for the autopilot menu and the Fuel Payload dialog. So, the fix is for the aircraft to make use of this e.g. gui.menuEnable(fuel-and-payload, false); We can add new names for any other menus that we might want to disable on a per-aircraft basis, but from a quick skim through the menus I couldn't see any other candidates. -Stuart -- Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
Re: [Flightgear-devel] Rendering menu was: Disabling menu items
Hi I noticed today that the dense-slider for the 3d-clouds has dissapeared. I found it a nice feature, as it could improve the framerates a lot for older, weaker computers. I know that it was difficult to use, as you had the 3d-clouds switch off and on, to get the new value of cloud density in runtime. Is there a way to get it back?

[Flightgear-devel] Question about use-custom-scenery-data type=booltrue/use-custom-scenery-data
Using latest git (2011.01.01) on win7/64bit I created a new folder in Models/Airport to store some shared models I develop. I try to reference a .ac file in there Models//Airport/AP_Lights/ runway_light_white.ac from a custom scenery folder / stg file using: OBJECT_SHARED Models/Airport/AP_Lights/runway_light_white.ac I get a unexpected result if use-custom-scenery-data type=booltrue/use-custom-scenery-data is set to true. The model is not loading without a error message. If the file is referenced from a xml file from within the custom scenery folder the model is loaded. If I relocate the .ac file to Models/Airport and use OBJECT_SHARED Models/Airport/runway_light_white.ac the model loads too. If use-custom-scenery-data type=boolfalse/use-custom-scenery-data is set, the file loads as expected without any changes. Is this behaviour a bug or am I doing something wrong?

As always, once we have a decent corpus of aircraft following the 'correct' style, it's easier to tell aircraft developers to 'do what the f14 already does' when updating aircraft. I've done a grep of the Aircraft tree and eyeballed the results. Fortunately, the location of many of the menus haven't changed, so aircraft that disable or replace (say) the 4th menu (Autopilot) still work. So, most aircraft are OK for the moment, but should be changed in the future (though see below). Specifically the following aircraft should still work: 717 737-300 737NG600 737NG700 737NG800 737NG900 747-400 757-200 777-200 A320-family A380 Aerostar-700 b1900d Citation-Bravo CitationX CRJ-200 CRJ-900 f16 fokker100 VMX22-Osprey That just leaves the f14b and the MiG-15, both which modify menu items. The f14b just needs to disable the fuel and payload menu, so is an easy fix for the maintainer. For some reason the MiG-15 disables Instant Replay after a crash. I don't think that is a bug - it appears intentional - and I think it will still work, though I haven't tested it. Going through the aircraft highlighted a number of functions that aren't covered by the existing enable/disable function in gui.nas 1) Replacing the autopilot dialog with another. 2) Adding pushback. Most aircraft add this to the Equipment menu I'll need to think about how to handle these cases. -Stuart -- Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Rendering menu was: Disabling menu items
Hi Heiko, just returned from holiday; so I'm caching up with my mailbox. I noticed today that the dense-slider for the 3d-clouds has dissapeared. I removed it, since I thought it was broken (because I did not know you have to toggle 3D clouds). I've just commited a fix for this; now the clouds are (double) toggled just by adjusting the slider, so it is no longer required to click-click the 3D clouds checkbox. Please have a look and let me know if it is sufficient. Other comments on the rendering dialog are welcome as well! Cheers and happy new year!
