 Whenever I run fgjs, everything works fine to configure the joystick

 problem with it not producing a configuration file?

As I understand, fgjs is for very basic configs in the old style only
(- lists of --prop://... entries). All js config files that come with
fgfs are hand-written xml, and it's quite simple to do that. Just search
for the best matching config in $FG_ROOT/Input/Joysticks/, make a copy
and edit it. Should be self-explaining. Forget fgjs!

Whenever I run js_demo and jstest, the joystick is recognized, so at

I'm running this on my dad's SuSE 9.1 Linux box, and SuSE seems to
treat FlightGear differently than other distros, as it has a
custom-made SuSE package for FlightGear (not the standard-issue rpm or
compiled-from-source), and many paths are different. For example, the
instructions say to run cd /usr/local/FlightGear/Input/Joysticks,
but in SuSE, one must run cd
/usr/lib/FlightGear/data/Input/Joysticks. This may have some effect
on why things aren't acting correctly:

please assist me? Thank you.
I have no knowledge of SuSE.
I installed from source.
For me fgjs creates fgfsrc.js in the current directory. Since I ran it from
my home directory that's where my file was created. If I tried to run it
from a directory for which I didn't have write permissions -- who knows?
I ended up manually creating  an xml file for my joystick:
I added an entry for my_joystick.xml to /usr/share/FlightGear/joysticks.xml
and then created my_joystick.xml and added it 
to /usr/share/FlightGear/Input/Joysticks/my_joystick's_manufacturer/

I based my_joystick.xml on that for a simple CH-compatable stick
with 4 axis and 4 buttons in /usr/share/FlightGear/Input/Joysticks/ which had 
a similar number of buttons, sliders, axis, triggers, etc.

When the SuSE package gets installed, I never used it. I grab all the 
sources and build it myself. Calibration of the CH yoke and pedals 
assigns the elevator, then does not respond to any other buttons. I've 
had to cut and try values in the xml file to get the sensitivity of 
controls to react properly, e.g with the default file, a slight input of 
rudder on the take-off run would cause it to veer off the runway 
rapidly, turns and climbs were way out of true. It would seem they 
depend on the processor speed. With a XP2200+, it was normal, but with 
this XP3000+, it was a nightmare ride. I wonder if there could be a way 
for fgfs to take a cue from the data in /proc/cpuinfo.
# fgjs
Found 2 joystick(s)
Joystick 0 has 7 axes
Joystick 1 has 3 axes
Move the control you wish to use for elevator

Is that a Gameport joystick? - Would have thought there was an upper limit on 
polling at least for a gameport (baud rate) but for USB I'm not so sure.

Do they behave nicely in jscal / jstest?

Hi Curt,

I have a real cockpit interfaced with MSFS and Project Magenta.  I would
like to make a try using Flight gear but need a bit help
as regards the I/O settings and the instrumentation.
So I have a couple of questions:

I do run 13 analog axises using a USB joystick card called Plasma by
Betainnovations ( unfortunately out of business)
Roll, pitch, yaw, throtltle 1, Throtttle 2, Prop1 , Prop2, Fuel1, Fuel
2, pitch Trim, Roll trim, Yaw trim and Flaps axis.
When I try to use the FG Joystick utilitity it starts with joystick zero
and ask for the elevator axis and my elevator axis is not on joystick O
but on joystick 1.
( The plasma card is recognized by Windows 2000 as two joystick with 8
axises).
Is there an other way the get the axises recognized by the software ???

Other problem are the instruments.

My cockpit is a Dash8 using whats called Old Efis style. Project
Magenta Boeing Glass Cockpit has an option enabling such panel with
EADI/ AHSU_ND/, and as analog gauges the ASI/ ALT/RMI/VSI.
I read somewhere that it is possible to run the FG instrument as
standalone application on a second computer. True ?? False ?? If true
how may I proceed in order to get
such kind of instruments.

The Server is a ATL.2600 with 1024 RAM  ATI 9600XT 128 RAM

The Client is a PIII 800 Mhz 326 RAM  GEFORCE 2 400MX 32 RAM

Is it possible to pull up the graphics in a window at native resolution 
and do a screen grab?  Or can you convert to .jpg or .gif or .tif or 
.png or some other common graphics format?  From there you should be 
able to convert .rgb pretty easily.

[Flightgear-users] Still haven't found what I need, more on readios :)

2004-12-22 Thread w1dgeteye

Ok I read the other web site on how to do IFR nav
but I still don't know how to setup the radios in flightgear
to recieve the signals I need to navigate.

Lemme give a fer instance.

on the c172 panel there are 2 nav instruments and 1 ADF.
in the radio stack there are 2 com/nav radios one atop the other.
there is also the ADF radio (I'm assuming it's a radio).

I am also assuming that each of the radios correspond to
the NAV instruments. just like the ADF radio corresponds to the
ADF instrument.

now Say I am sitting at the Amarillo intl airport and want to
go to Lubbock which is approximately 100 miles due South.
HOw do I setup the radios to Lubbocks beacons or frequencies
or whatever the heck the radios use to guide me to Lubbock?

Where do I get the freqs from? I learned from another web site
how to do the navigating but I never found out how to setup the
radios to get me from point A to point B.

I read the How to fly thingy on the Flightgear web site but it
ran out of words before it got to this part.   :)

Please, I need to kow ALL about the radios in flightgear, If
there's a place with docs I can read that will be fine.


Thanks,
Larry

Typically real pilots use navigation charts and other publications to find 
out these things. You can search online for aviation sectional charts and 
come up with a list of many different online stores(or check with the FBO at 
your local airport) that sell the references you need. The VFR sectional charts 
typically show the location and frequency for most navigation beacons. There 
are instrument charts that show the navaids needed for instrument flight. You 
can also get an A/DF(Airport/Facility Directory) which lists all you need to 
know about the various airports(you might also try Flight Guide 
http://www.flightguide.com for another similar directory). As an alternative to 
all this that might also help, take a look at http://www.airnav.com - this is 
an online summary of most of what is available out there.  Hope this helps.

Some of the charts are available online, but they're usually a pain to
use.  Why not invest a few bucks in paper charts if you're going to
take all this time?  They're available online from many sources, or
you can just walk into the flight school or FBO at your nearest
general aviation airport (which might be a fun place to visit anyway).

IFR charts are well under $10 each, and you don't have to update them
every 7 weeks since you're not using them for real aviation.  Sporty's
chart doctor will show you what you need to buy for your area (I'm not
sure how good they are -- my sources are in Canada):

You don't always get frequencies that guide you from A to B. As John wrote
already, you can buy charts or search/find them on the internet, which tell
you what nav facilities you can use to get from A to B. I for one do only
have maps for my country. But, of course, there's an easier and cheaper way
that I use for the rest of the world:

1. http://atlas.sf.net/ -- shows you maps with airports, VOR, NDB
   frequencies. And guess, where it has the frequencies from?

2. all of the frequencies are, of course, contained in FlightGear's base
   data. You find them here:  $FG_ROOT/Navaids/nav.dat.gz
   For example, to list a few LOXL related frequencies, do this:

   $ zgrep Linz $FG_ROOT/Navaids/nav.dat.gz
   2   48.237100  014.321783  0   327   0.000 LNZ  Linz NDB
   3   48.229711  014.103156   1145 11660   0.000 LNZ  Linz VOR-DME

Where I live it's Jeppessen, Jeppessen or Jeppessen.  :-\
A single approach plate costs about $15 (USD) at the shop at my local

Most of the charts have to be bought as a complete set which costs a few 
thousand Dollars.
One probably has more options in Canada and the USA than elsewhere in the

I really feel that FG should have a built in flight planner of some sort.
All the basic navaid data is already in FG we just need some way of displaying

Actually there exists a flight planning tool for FlightGear:

There is the data/Navaids/awy.dat.gz file that I guess contains the airways. 
AFAIK it's not used by FlightGear, but it could of course be used by Atlas.

You are probably not waiting long enough. FlightGear does now wait until all
the necessary scenery/objects are loaded, which can take a while. To get the
old behavior, you can call fgfs like so:

  $ fgfs --props:/sim/sceneryloaded-override=true

Of course, you would then put this option into your ~/.fgfsrc

That's funny. This syntax is even wronger than mine. Astonishing that it
actually works. Correct is this:

  $ fgfs --prop:/sim/sceneryloaded-override=true

just prop, not props. And you can use 1 and 0 for true and false.

 Hello there!

 I compiled FlightGear 0.9.6 on my SuSE 9.0 system. I followed the
 installation instructions, but when I try to start it, the spash screen
 shows and it hangs. The console says:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ /usr/local/FlightGear/bin/fgfs --control=mouse
 Object PanelInstruments not found
 Object ControlsGroup not found

 I can abort the program with Ctrl-C.

 What am I doing wrong?

 Thanks,

I've had this same problem on my G5 Mac, but I don't have a clue how to  
address the issue.
