[Flightgear-devel] Concorde textures

Hello everyone, I am - currently only for my own enjoyment - working on new more authentic/detailed textures for the Concorde. The Concorde is my favorite aircraft in flightgear and so I thought "Why not start contributing to the realism of this model?" I already made some progress on the BA l

[Flightgear-devel] Automatic runway selection broken by weather interpolation

Hi Guys, I think I've found a bug in the new weather environment code. I started up at Austin Bergstrom International (KAUS), a fairly large Texas airport with runways 17L/R, 35L/R. The METAR had wind of 9 knots at 190 degrees. I would expect FG to start on runway 17. Instead it starts on 35L.

[Flightgear-devel] [patch] Improved Nasal access to airport information

Hi All, I've been working on a small patch to change the existing global Nasal function airportinfo() to return more than one result. With this patch, and optional argument allows the caller to specify the number of nearest airports to return. E.g. airportinfo(10), returns the nearest 10 airports

Re: [Flightgear-devel] FlightGear website on wiki

Yes I think there has been quite some discussion on a move to a more dynamic, with delegated administration style of website. I'd like to throw in WordPress as perhaps a better website content system than Wiki. Several open source projects have in the past used Wiki as a basis for a web conten

Hi, I like this idea as well! A good and fantastic simulation project as FlightGear needs a better represantion on the web if we want to be as successfull as we are now.  The only thing I fear is: that it will be another useless discussion, without any resultat CheersHeiko still in work: http

Gijs, This sounds like a worthwhile proposal. Why not set up the wiki page etc. so that we can compare and come up with an informed decision, rather than some pre-formed opinions. (4 FG Developers -> 5 opinions. One will change their mind :-)) Vivian -Original Message- From: Gij
