[Flightgear-devel] bug with taxiway signs
I don't know if this is known, but I don't remember seeing reference of it. With 1.9.1, using release scenery or terrasync, signs are drawn correctly. With cvs, also with terrasync or release scenery, signs are missing letters, making them not so useful. To see the problem start up at KLVK(for example, but effects all airports), in 1.9.1 and taxi around, then do the same in cvs, the problem should be clear. For example, excuse the crude ascii drawings if you will ;) Taxiing up Bravo towards Alpha and Juliet (KLVK) with 1.9.1 you will see these signs...correct. | -- A[B] | [ -- J[B] | But in cvs letters for Alpha and Bravo will be missing, and you will see these signsnot so correct. | --[B] | | --[B] | This effects all signs, at all airports I tried, release or terrasync scenery cheers! --Jacob -- Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel

Short answer: Torsten has broken it in rev 1.23 of apt_signs.cxx :) Longer answer: we need to keep the previous material and reuse it for subsequent glyphs that don't specify a new material. Thus, the material/effects variables should be put back at the top, but initialized to 0. -- Csaba/Jester -- Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
Re: [Flightgear-devel] bug with taxiway signs
I have spotted one more problem with the signs, namely the backsides change color from gray to black depending on distance or FoV. Here two screenshots for reference: http://imagebin.ca/view/LyWfNs3D.html vs. http://imagebin.ca/view/tpoBEKd.html Anybody else seeing this? -- Csaba/Jester -- Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
