In order for the 'wrong' method to work in any fashion, means you have to be recursively searching the path given by --fg-aircraft...right? Seems odd, and certainly serves to create ambiguity and confusionso why are we doing that? Would it not be much simpler to only search the top level directories located under the path given with --fg-aircraft for the set.xml or model.xml in question? Then you either give it the right path and it works, or you don't, and it doesn't. Actually the search has *always* been recursive - for years, by the look of it. I use the same (refactored) code to support all aircraft dirs, both the default one in fg-data, and the additional ones. Obviously I didn't want to break the existing support for the recursive search, so I kept it - so it works for all aircraft dirs. You're absolutely correct that it creates some ambiguity and confusion (and makes the code a little bit more complex). If that cost is judged to exceed that of removing an existing feature that *probably* nobody is using, I can remove it - the problem is sometimes when I do that, we discover much later that someone did actually want/like/need the feature :) James -- Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!

[Flightgear-devel] Head-UP: FGrun translations
Hi All, the next FG release is imminent now. It is time to check if the FGrun translation for your language is OK and complete. Pay attention to overlapping or truncated text as well as untranslated sentence. It is also possible to submit new translations if your language use the latin alphabet. If you are under Windows, you may want to download the nightly build at http://flightgear.simpits.org:8080/job/Win32-installer/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/fgfs_win32_nightly_2.2.0.exe to check.

This allows me to keep everything in sync with the GIT fgdata main line in $fg-root so that I don't have to worry about anything in my development clone other than the aircraft I am working on. Isn't this how this is intended to work? Yes :) (Well, one possibility of many) Something that will happen after 2.2.0 is a minimal data package that contains *no* Aircraft (or possibly the C172) and the generic instruments(-3d). Then the launchers will need to take a greater part in managing aircraft - I have some code written for that (like fgadmin, but for aircraft downloads and install), but it's only a rough prototype, nothing that works yet.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] New airport textures
Part of the texture problem is with the current data format we are using - there are a number of airports where the texture is incorrect, especially the threshold textures - but we currently only have four options for runways. Also, some countries use yellow textures for some airports - see (from 30m!): http://maps.yahoo.com/#mvt=slat=42.775718lon=141.691422zoom=14 Plus there are different aiming point textures in different countries (texture already added), different thresholds for different airports, et cetera. The question is figuring out what is needed. While this is a data-side problem (and an easy one to fix in game if the format is corrected) it would be nice to have a varied set of runway and taxiway textures for the future. Just imagine landing at RJCB for the first time and wondering if your simulator has gone haywire because all the runway texures are yellow - another FlightGear first!

Re: [Flightgear-devel] New airport textures
Martin's correct. I made cosmetic changes to the textures themselves, nothing outside of that like the way the mapping is done. However, I do agree with John that perhaps some of the runway texturing needs modifications. I tried to modify the grass and dirt runways to integrate more seamlessly with the surrounding airport grass, but my attempt was thwarted by the seemingly senseless way that FG lays them out. -- Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
