Re: [Flightgear-devel] Some Help: Please!
Hi Ante, I also answered you quite shortly after your first mail. Definitely you could get more support on the dedicated FG forum, this mailing list is more for development stuff. Content reposted below. Cheers, Hello Ante, I would recommend you to go on the dedicated forum for support ( http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=17 ). The devel list is not meant to deal with support issues, but with FlightGear core development. You also need to be more precise about the version of FG you downloaded, the plane you are trying to use, if the base package planes work OK, and if there are error messages in the console windows, etc. Olivier De : Ante Cugura ante...@hotmail.com À : flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Envoyé le : Vendredi 9 août 2013 8h21 Objet : [Flightgear-devel] Some Help Dear FlightGear Team, I have recently downloaded FlightGear, and am enjoying it, but I seem not be able to download some aircraft.

Dear FlightGear Team, I have recently installed FlightGear v2.10.0 on a MacBook Air laptop, and am enjoying it. Before I go on, I must make a complaint that this is the fifth time I have sent this exact e-mail. The first, third and fourth time I sent it, no one got back to me, and I hadn't got an e-mail saying my message was rejected. (I do know that I am sending this e-mail to a members-only e-mail and that I am not a member. The second time I sent it, Someone called William replied saying that he had to reject the e-mail because there is a 40KB limit, and that I should take the pictures which I used out, which I did. I replied the same e-mail to William without the pictures, and he never got back to me. I am having some trouble with installing extra aircraft. All of the aircraft I got with the FlightGear software work, but some of the aircraft which I tried to download don't work, even when I add them to the software, a box comes up saying it has been successfully installed. The troubles which I am having include: The plane is there but it won't start (717, 737NG, 757, A340, Citation X, DC-3, DC-8-73, Lockheed 1049h); A small blue and yellow replaces the plane that should be there (747-400, A320, 767, 787, Beechcraft b1900d, ATR 72-500); a box comes up saying that FlightGear unexpectdedly quit when I try to fly with the plane (Paper Airplane, Wright Flyer); and random planes parts fly near the plane when I put the landing gear up or down (A300). Also, I'm pretty sure that I am able to download the A330 on FlightGear, but I can't seem to find it on your website. It would be a great help if you could tell me where I can get it.

From the command line or from a launcher? if you are running from the command-line, can you post your command-line here? Unfortunately I don't run a Mac myself, so I may not be able to provide very specific help on this. You might want to post to the FlightGear forums (http://www.flightgear.org/forums/) where there may be more people who can help. -Stuart -- Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!

[Flightgear-devel] Some Help
Dear FlightGear Team, I am a twelve-year-old airplane fan, and have just downloaded the FlightGear software. I use a MacBook Air laptop, which uses the Mac OS X software. However, I would like to download extra planes and scenery so I can have more fun playing with the simulator. Even after following all the instructions that it tells me on your wiki pages and on your website, nothing has provided me with the help that I need. I am able to download the files themselves that I want, but I am not able to drag them into any of the FlightGear software folders, which is what I suspect needs to be able to happen in order for me to access the scenery and aircraft when I use the simulator. It would be much appreciated if you could provide some assisstance with my problems using FlightGear.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Some Help
(I'm assuming the basics of Mac are the same as Linux.) If you are copying the files to a system directory (basically anywhere outside your Home directory), you'll need to use sudo in Terminal. Alternatively (at least for the scenery), you can tell FlightGear to use scenery that are located elsewhere in addition to the included aircraft and scenery. To do this, when running FlightGear, for the fg-scenery parameter, append your scenery directory with a colon. For example, you would type fgfs --fg-scenery=base_scenery_path:your_scenery_path. Replace base_scenery_path with the path to the base scenery, and your_scenery_path with the path to your scenery. Note that the given folders must have the folders Airport, Objects, and/or Terrain.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Some Help
Hi ! Actually on Mac, apps are packages (a directory presented by the system as an app). So to access to FlightGear data, you need to right click on FlightGear app, show package contents, and then you should be able to navigate to data folder inside. Best, Jonathan.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Some Help
And for the Mac, look at the flightgear launcher for 'install add on' (or something similarly worded). Just select the thing (airplane or scenery chunk) you want to install and it will do the right thing for you automatically. Curt.
