On a mildly unrelated note, if you fly in fgfs in the Highveld using the default cloud layers, you take off almost straight into cloud. While the default cloud is great for KSFO, it breaks down for airports at higher altitudes; perhaps a cloudbase relative to starting ground altitude would be

Yup. For some reason there is something odd, that I was never able to figure out for Mac builds. I don't know why, but automake on the mac, does not do the required links for building flightgear itself, but it does work fine for SimGear and plib...I don't get it. But here is the relevant part to

I don't know how well this works in windows, but can you run fgfs inside gdb (the gnu debugger) and when you get the crash, type where and it should give you some more info about the location of the crash in the code. That is often *very* helpful in tracking down what is going on. Regards,

It seems as if MacOS X does not have isnan(), or at least by default. From wading trough the headers (I see isnan in there, so I'm not sure why it is not being used), I made the following change to cloudfield.cxx. My guess is that this will only work on the Mac, since it appears as if
