  Didn't this subject come up before? Note that CPU usage is  at 100% is neither a bug nor a problem by itself. Do you  need more CPU for calculating something else? Are your other
  applications unresponsive?   FlightGear, like most games or real-time simulations, has a  frame-based main loop. It calculates a frame, renders it,  and then immediately goes back to the start of the loop to
  render the next one. That keeps the frame rate as high as  possible given the resources available.   There is currently no provision for throttling the frame
  rate in situations where the window is minimized, although I  suppose that could be done.   Andy   ___  Flightgear-devel mailing list

As the archives will quickly tell you... there have been loads of people 
finding that freeglut 2.4 contains a bug which should be fixed in their 
latest CVS - if you don't want to upgrade that, you can downgrade to freeglut 
2.2, or recompile SG and FG using SDL instead.

If you _are_ using recent freeglut CVS, I'm stuck :-)

Cheers,

AJ

 This can be done now by using the texture animations;
 texrotate and textranslate

 See FlightGear/data/Docs/model-howto.html for more information.

A texcopy function that allows one to copy one part of the texture to another 
would be useful.

[Flightgear-devel] Update to the Gettng Started guide

2005-10-31 Thread Buchanan, Stuart
Hi All,

You may remember I wrote a cross-country flight
tutorial a couple of weeks back.  Many thanks for all
the corrections - they made a huge difference.

I have now integrated this into a patch for the
Getting Started Guide. The changes are as follows.

- Create a section III - Tutorials
- Split the existing tutorial information into
FlightGear and non-FlightGear.
- Add a link to Eric's tutorial
- Add the cross-country tutorial as a new chapter
- Update the title page with datestamp code, reference
to updates for 0.9.8 (should this be 0.9.9?), and my
name as a contributor (OK, this is a bit forthright,
but I have added a new chapter :) )

A PDF version is available here:

http://www.nanjika.co.uk/flightgear/getstart/getstart.pdf

A tarball of the changed files (for
docs/getstart/source) is available here:

http://www.nanjika.co.uk/flightgear/getstart/getstart.tar.gz

There was an issue about sectional figures. The
sectionals included in the tarball were taken from
aviationtoolbox.org. I've had a look on the NACO
website, and sectionals are not copyrighted, so I
think it is OK to include them. However, if someone
with more GNUowledge than me thinks this is too risky,
let me know and I'll remove them completely (it'll
also save including the 15MB .EPS file!)

On a more general note, I'd like to help out more with
documentation but don't want to duplicate any work
other people are doing, or step on other peoples toes.

George - you mentioned you're working on some updates
to this guide - we should touch base to see if I can
help out.

Comments and suggestions are of course welcome.

Regards,

Stuart Buchanan
