Hello,
Would that be possible? What is the policy for gainining
CVS write access to the fgfs repository?
Hmm, apparently the thread died an abrupt dead, so I humbly
ask again:
What can I do to gain CVS access? If you have any reservations
or further questions about the project, please let
Hi,
I want to start to integrate an alternative terrain engine
with flightgear
(http://baron.flightgear.org/pipermail/flightgear-devel/2004-September/030853.html)
For this, I need to adapt flightgear to use an abstract terrain API, which
will encapsulate the current and new terrain engine

That's great, I already wondered what happened to that project. This

Hello Erik,
That's great, I already wondered what happened to that project. This
would really be a great addition for FlightGear.
Unfortunately I am studying and currently try to compensate for the tremendous
lazyness of my past semesters :-) So that project had to wait for the
christmas
I think in this case a branch makes a lot of sense, because
otherwise the
modifications would greatly disturb the main-branch; or I
would be forced
to hold back a gigantic monolithic patch until codingtesting
has finished,
which would leave me without version control (and others

keep in mind that FlightGear uses a round earth model and that
this should be reflected in any FGFS Terrain API
Is this methodology you want to integrate ?

In the paper this appears to be based on a 'flat Earth' model

Hi,
If my memory serves, previous big changes to the codebase have been
handled by having a conditional compilation option which switches on the
new code (and switches off some old code if needed) and putting all changes
in CVS HEAD. This allows people to try it if they want to, and avoids

yes, that's it.
another interesting read from this project :-)
Hi Norman,

Perhaps I am missing something or you have extended the engine
since this was written ?
I don't remember if this was mentioned in the paper, but we use
Hello Christian,
Probalby the easiest way would be to create an independant program
first, that communicates with FGFS via the network api.
The benefit is a very fast start on the rendering side - w/o much needed
internal FGFS knowledge and w/o the need to synchonize development at
