[Flightgear-devel] Simgear and OSG out of sync?
Hi All, I have been away for a couple of weeks, so perhaps I have missed something. When I tried to compile a fresh git version using download_and_compile.sh, I noticed there were some updates in OSG. It seems simgear is not in sync (yet?), though, because I am getting the following error: SGPagedLOD.cxx: In member function 'virtual void simgear::SGPagedLOD::forceLoad(osgDB::DatabasePager*, osg::FrameStamp*)': SGPagedLOD.cxx:73: error: no matching function for call to 'osgDB::DatabasePager::requestNodeFile(const std::basic_stringchar, std::char_traitschar, std::allocatorchar , simgear::SGPagedLOD* const, double, osg::FrameStamp*, osg::ref_ptrosg::Referenced, osgDB::Options*)' /home/mifi/Software/Sources/fgfs18/install/OpenSceneGraph/include/osgDB/DatabasePager:73: note: candidates are: virtual void osgDB::DatabasePager::requestNodeFile(const std::string, osg::NodePath, float, const osg::FrameStamp*, osg::ref_ptrosg::Referenced, const osg::Referenced*) make[3]: *** [SGPagedLOD.o] Error 1 When I saw this, I removed all sources for OSG and Simgear and restarted with a fresh git clone, but the error remains. I searched the forums and noticed someone else has the same problem with a completely freshly cloned git version. Did I miss something that causes this in the past few weeks? m -- Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.

[Flightgear-devel] TerraSync: question about file directoy
Hi, Still working on the moveable helipads together with Oliver Thurau I have still problems to make the pads working for any scenery-folder like TerraSync, Scenery or data/Scenery. It only works a specific one defined- not for all ones. Looking for a solution I came to the question why it is like that: terrasync -Airports -Terrain -Models -Objects And not: terrasync -Scenery -Airports -Terrain -Models -Objects And would it be hard to change this to this layout?

OSG SVN made an API change to Paged LOD, no one yet updated FG to work with it. While some developers do track OSG SVN, that's a slightly ambitious goal for everyone - personally I stick with the most recent developer release of OSG (2.9.9 or 2.9.10 at the moment, depending on who you ask) I believe for this paerticular change Tim Moore has a fix pending, but each such change (not associated with a version release) requires additional configure/cmake complexity to check for the changed API - as was done for CullSettings, for example.

Regards, James Grab: http://www.hoerbird.net/LOWI.zip install it as it is and try. The pads are working. Now save the Objects-folder from the package in terrasync, and delete e010n40-folder in data/Scenery. Use now the terrasync-folder as scenery. It won't work. Problem: to use the pads inside the Objects/e010n40/e011n47-folder I defined a line in the nasal-script like that: setprop (models/LOWI/model/path, Scenery/Objects/e010n40/e011n47/LOJO_helipad_libelle.xml); This path seems to be absolute. If you want to make this working in TerraSync you have to change the line to ..,terrasync/Objects/...); That's prevents me from uploading my wok on the moveable helipads (currently a FlightGear-only feature!) to GIT. The other way to get it working is to use a set of standard pads lying in Models, but that would mean of course less freedom to heli-scenery-designer. Any ideas?

I'm not sure what your nasal is trying to do or why it need a scenery path, but you will need some way to retrieve the 'actual' path from where the model was loaded. I'm not sure if this functionality already exists, it may, but not an area I've ever researched yet personally. cheers -- Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] TerraSync: question about file directoy
Hi Heiko This isn't just a Terrasync problem as I have scenery files in multiple scenery folders for testing purposes. So if the helipad was in my Scenery2/ folder, it also wouldn't work... The solution as I think has been said is to figure out if there is a way to get the name of the top level folder using Nasal, or to figure out a way to use nasal within the scenery folder? You could always try calling the nasal script from the xml (I have absolutely no idea if this will work or not and it may well be impossible).

Depends on if anyone's submitting a modified layout. Actually the runway directions are hardwired into our airfield layouts and they're not updated automatically.

Mmmm, guessing directory path names from an embedded script smells like it's calling for permenant maintenance trouble in the long run ;-) Right, the solution is to expose the path resolve / resource logic I added, to Nasal. This takes a relative path (and some context) and finds the best match among the defined scenery/model paths. Thats exactly how the aircraft-dir support coded up, and how existing models are found. Nasal currently can't hook into that, but it could be done. Of course the best thing from my point of view, would be if Nasal always passed a relative path, treating it like an opaque ID rather than an actual file-system path, and then the C++ layer dealt with converting it (using the resource code, as it already does). I.e you shouldn't ever be dealing with absolute paths in Nasal, hopefully. James -- Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
