AJ Many thanks for explaining that, next time I'll use the correct keys ;) the L/R gear brakes are obviously not a good substitute for the rudder on take off, that's why I was keen to sort out my rudder controls. Anyway it did force me to find out how to modify the key-mapping and use the property editor. I like the flexibility this , were nice design. Shame the property editor often fails since it overruns an 80 char internal limit. That probably needs to be extended a bit. Trivial mod for someone who knows that code. Thanks again. ___ Flightgear-users mailing list Flightgear-users@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Hi, I've installed 0.98 on a Gentoo system and appart from a handful of glitches is works very well on the std KSFO scenery. Then I downloaded some 10x10s for Europe and untarred them but all I get from them is default light cloud and default grassy ground texture. Is there a way to get fgfs to produce some output that I can debug from? Just failing quietly leaves me guessing a any number of poss. errors and I will need to spend a week to find the prob. TIA for any suggestions. BTW, the right rudder control does not work on the numpad , next to numpad-0 , the rudder-left key that is fine. I had to hack the keymapping to put it on / but it's not too well placed. Is this a bug or a local oddity? Finally the c310 seems to have a broken R-aileron. Preflight checks showed no movement whereas the left one was fine. The aircraft is unusable because of that . In fact there are quite a few oddities here but my main issue is the scenery , thanks again. ___ Flightgear-users mailing list Flightgear-users@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-users 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Now that I've solved my joystick problems (thanks to all how gave me input !) I'm working on scenery. Is the terrasync utility included in the 0.9.8 download or does it have to be downloaded separately? One of the documents mentioned a read me that came along with the utility. When I get it how do I use it? I've downloaded 10 X 10 scenery blocks, placed them in the terain folder in the data folder, but nothing happens when I get to the edge of the w130n30 block which was included in the download. Help.

Re: [Flightgear-users] terrasync
In the FlightGear source folder you will find another folder called utils. Somewhere in there you'll find the terrasync readme.On 9/27/05, Edward Cawley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Now that I've solved my joystick problems (thanks to all how gave me input !)

Help. Glad you managed to work around your joystick problem eventually! Just checking - did you uncompress the files you downloaded? They're gzipped tar files and need to be uncompressed and extracted before you can use the contents. Shout again if you need more assistance in doing so. Basically, once done you should have, in the data/Scenery/Terrain folder, several subfolders (note _not_ just the tgz files), one for each chunk you've downloaded.
