Test is still running and has produced 1.8 GByte of terrain so far.
I felt slightly frustrated when I came across a huge hole in the
terrain while test-flying the result of the above build - until I
realized that Andorra is not covered in CORINE  :-)

Cheers,

[Flightgear-devel] weather-utility.nas

2012-01-18 Thread Torsten Dreyer
Hi,

due to a bug in weather-utility.nas, the wave shader properties were 
stuck at a constant value for wind-speed zero.
There was more unfortunate code in that file, so I refactored it as
xml based property rule. This is the relevant commit:
http://gitorious.org/fg/fgdata/commit/9b2e72e12d9a07b58d513c688a078f4fce386781

The computation of the properties for the wave shader and the snow line 
now live in FGDATA/Environment/interpolator.xml and 
FGDATA/Environment/metarinterpolator.xml

Please check if the waves now correctly react to the wind and if the 
snow cover is right.

If everything is OK, this should go into release/2.6.0, too.

Greetings,

Torsten

Re: [Flightgear-devel] DDS texures (Was: Improving random trees

2012-01-18 Thread Mathias Fröhlich

Hi Vivian,

Sorry for the long delay, also in face of the pending release.
Thanks for the suggestions.

 On the other hand, if you are trying to tell aircraft modelers not to use
 these forms (.dds .ivs) of compression, then:
 
 Image D:/Git_New/my_fgdata/Textures/Terrain/sand6.dds uses compressed
 textures which may be unsupported some systems. To remove this alert,
 decompress this texture.
 
 My concern with the latter form is that it only applies to very limited
 number of aircraft models and developers, while it is at best meaningless to
 the user, and may lead to confusion.
Yes, the usual user might ask 'what should I do?'

What about:
Image ...
uses compressed textures which cannot be supported on some systems.
Please decompress this texture for improved portability.

So, instead of waiting for a reply now I just commit this now as I do want 
that change in the release also.
So, that I just committed this so far does *not* mean that I don't care for 
the answer!

Also I will commit a lowered warning level for the *release branch* only.

Thanks

Mathias
