Yes, I meant the FBW system with all the flight envlope protection (the fun 
stuff).  However, I also have quite a few things on my mind as well (the 
boring stuff).

As far as I know, the instruments that you see ARE the "XML-Instruments" that 
you referred to.  Unfortunately, I have absolutely no experience in this 
area.  Perhaps those who had experience with instruments can answer your 
question better.

Oh, one more item,
There is a synthetic voice module that will send Dave's ATC 
transmissions to the Festival TTS program. The voice quality is not all 
that great but at least you don't have to read the screen.

[Flightgear-devel] Source code

2005-10-07 Thread John Wojnaroski

Hi,

The version of FlightGear used for the MIADC show in May contains a 
fan/turbine model based on physics and thermo equations, a different 
approach to tank/engine selection to handle the 747 fuel system, changes 
in the control packet, and an update to the data packets.  It might not 
be practical to try and incorporate these into the CVS baseline .I'm not 
sure and not all that conversant on how to create all the ifdefs and 
other compile/run time options or xml files to handle all the "deltas". 
However, the source is there for anyone brave enough have a go at it or 
just to consider if it might be feasible.  As I recall, Curt first 
created a diff file against the then current CVS baseline, next ran 
patch, and IIRCC the build was very clean.  Go to http://www.lfstech.com 
and browse over to the download page. The file is miadc.tgz.


Regards
John W.

[Flightgear-devel] electrical systems

2005-10-07 Thread syd

Hi all 
I noticed recently that electrical outputs still show a voltage (frozen) 
when a switch is shut off.Is there a reason for this ... or is it a work 
in progress?
The reason I ask is that I want to animate lights by the voltage rather 
than switch position ... (dimming lights as the battery voltage drops , 
etc...).I just want to know if  this is the way it is going to operate , 
and I can change my animations (I'm currently working on the 
overhead light switch panel in the B1900D).Thanks in advance, I know how 
busy everyone is .Cheers

I've got my XML instrument on a panel in the Cessna "virtual cockpit"
or 3d cockpit. I would say yes.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Does anybody try compile FG with gcc 4.0?

GCC 4.0.1 is the default in Debian Testing and therefore gets picked
up when you run the ordinary build scripting associated with CVS.
It seems to work fine; there have been a few patches submitted
by various people (over many months) for the 3->4 migration.

I will say that it's a good idea to do a "make clean" after you
transition your toolchain from gcc3 to gcc4.  Otherwise some
odd things happen.  I haven't noticed any other differences.

What exactly is beeing ment by scripting and sidestick?

If you mean to programm a more or less functional Airbus-Cockpit with its 
"Fly-By-Wire" capabilities (Yes.. I also mean that typical stuff around FBW, 
flight envelope protection  and so on..) and some basic FMC and FCU 
functions? - Luckily I also have had such an idea.
Unfortunately I did not have the time to become familiar with this stuff.

The first thing I have to deal with is the way, the XML-Instruments work.
Is it possible to use the XML-Instruments in a 3d-Cockpit or do you have to 
rewrite the whole stuff to animations?


Greetings,
Karsten

[Flightgear-devel] Fix for SimGear Cygwin gcc-3.4.x compilation

2005-10-07 Thread David Luff
Hi folks,

The following patch needs to be applied to fix the errors that Georg
Vollnhals was getting whilst attempting to compile SimGear with gcc-3.4.x
in a thread a week or so ago.  Could someone with CVS access commit it
please - it's the old picking up the -DNOMINMAX definition from config.h
thing again.

Note that 3 changes to 2 header files in our downloadable openal_cyg.tgz
described in:
http://baron.flightgear.org/pipermail/flightgear-devel/2005-March/035270.htm
l
needed to be applied before I could compile successfully.  Could someone
apply these to our tarball please?

Cheers - Dave
